Just recently I picked up the MF Ring and I love it. I mainly got it for those church bell chimes and it does that really well. I also like to turn the mix knob down for some dirty harmonics. This pedal will probably make an expression pedal my next purchase because you can make some interesting noises while turning the freq knob while playing.
Now while I never played its bigger brother, I have watched a few demos for comparison and would say if you take out the LFO and CV inputs and replace the tone switch with a knob you basically have the MF Ring.

That's not a tone switch, it changes the range of the carrier frequency knob. One setting goes from tremolo to somewhere in the middle of the guitar freq range, the other goes from about a bass e to unbelievably high.
So the tone knob is actually something unique to the MF-Trem.

Re: Moog Ring Mod vs. Moog Ring Mod
I'm actually curious about the OP's original question. Is the minifooger the same ring mod circuit as its bigger brother?...just without the fancy cv ins/outs and the lfo modulation section, and with the addition of a tone knob?

Re: Moog Ring Mod vs. Moog Ring Mod
The Moog can and will definitely fix the Ring Mod....it just costs a few bucks. It really is an amazing device, very musical but also, as someone else said, kind
of cold and science-lab-esque...which I like. Yes, basically what I was looking for was if the Mini-Ring was the same circuit but without all
of the neat options of it's bigger brother. Who did I sell my F.A to? I need it back!
