<DIV>Obviously the question about which is the best filter is a political
one. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Now, if the Amerikkkan Govt. wasn't set up in the kapitalistic way it was,
ARP filters would've been better than Moog ones. But since Moog was on all
those high-selling records, everyone thought they were the best. Actually,
if you go to Smokinggun.com, you can find govt. documents that prove ARP filters
were better than Moog, but there was a govt. conspiracy to make everyone love
the Moog filter. That's why the U.S. Govt. funded bands like Yes, ELP,
Rush, and a whole slew of Moogites. Imagine, the U.S. Govt investing in
foreign bands. That's not what George Washington wanted in his farewell
address, and I quote: "be not inclined to invest in foreign prog bands, no
matter how great the incentive for the filters in analog synthesizers, whatever
those are..."</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Look, I said I would have a "few pints" for my friends in
England. This is the result. All in fun.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But to make this on topic-ish, the filters in my new Moog 15 are perhaps
the most dreamy and succulent things I've ever heard. Wow, send that fixed
filter band into the LPF and you've got paradise....Imagine eating the most
perfectly cooked steak (or slow-cooked peppered tri-tip), and you're almost
there. What's even better is when I use the oscillators of my new
Wavemakers synth to subtly and slowly modulate the PWM or pitch or whatever on
the Moog. "heaven isn't too far away" indeed!</DIV>
