MAIN OUTPUT VOLUME KNOB
The Main Output Volume knob determines the signal level
being sent to the High and Low audio outputs on the Top
Patch Panel.
NOTE: The Low output signal is 30dB lower than the High level
output.
NOTE: The scaling of overdrive is directly related to the Main Output
Volume knob. Because of this, it is ideal to keep the Main Output
Volume knob at or below 6 for the most musical range of overdrive
control via the External Input Volume knob.
MAIN OUTPUT SWITCH
This switch can quickly mute the Main Output of the
instrument without having to dial the Volume down to
zero and then reset it to a nominal level. Muting the Main
Output allows a performer to use the Phones Output as a
cue/monitor for privately tweaking settings during a live
performance.
A-440 TUNER SWITCH
A reference tuner pitched at A-440Hz is built into Minimoog
Model D. The reference tone is sent to both the Main Output
and the Phones Output. The Tuner provides a convenient way
to keep all of the oscillators in tune, at all times.
PHONES VOLUME KNOB
The Phones Volume knob determines the signal level being
sent to the Phones jack. This knob operates independent of
the Main Output Volume knob.
PHONES JACK
Even though Minimoog Model D is monophonic, the Phones
jack is a 1/4” TRS Stereo jack, delivering the same signal to
both ears.
TIP: Mute the Main Output and use a pair of headphones to monitor
Minimoog Model D in order to prepare the next sound or to check
the tuning.
