I want a moogerfooger control processor but can't pay $300 plus for one cuz I'm broke. Can anyone make a clone or something even better/wilder for me to make foogernoise with? I can pay about $100-150 tops or trade for it.

what do you want, something to process a cv out and turned into multiple cv outs? or external lfos? create a non-lfo cv out and be able to sync to different outs?

I want to hook up my moogerfoogers to it and make even more crazy sounds with them by patching the patch bay in all kind of crazy ways. like this http://www.effectsdatabase.com/model/mo ... oger/cp251

Half of the Moog patch bay is literally just jacks connected in parallel.
The other side of it is LFO waveforms that send CV signals to the Moogerfoogers.

Can you build me one in trade?

I'll trade you a fooger freqbox for the patch bay and something else cool. Like the wsg you have?

I've got that orange patch bay- the one from Instagram. It's got a set of 4 way multiples, then it has 4 sets of 3 way multiples with on/off toggles and 2 passive attenuators.

The only thing it doesn't have is the LFO waveforms, BUT- if you patch the envelope output from the LowPass Filter, or the Oscillator Output on the FreqBox into the 4 way multiple, you can distribute THAT CV signal into 4 different inputs on the other Moogerfoogers. So it can still carry the CV signals, just not make its own

I think you want a modular synth. start now before you have 356,929,712 moog pedals. use the right tool for the job. I'm a MOTM jacks on bottom kind of guy.

but you may want to go with synthesizers.com to get that more authentic moog modular look. here is .com side by side with some vintage moog modules

well, its clear the jacks are on the bottom of the modules but what does MOTM stand for?

Synthtech aka synthesizer technology created a product line called modular of the millenium. The power supply, jack size, panel height, and signal levels are moog compatible. You can mix and match all the big modulars with vintage moog modular and modern moog products.

no not mine. It might be John L Rice. there are less than 20 people posting MOTM systems online right now. less than 5 of them are in road cases.
