If you are not familiar with analog subtractive synthesis or with Minimoog Model D,
here is a quick experiment to introduce you to the main sound-creation components
and their functions. Begin by setting the Minimoog Model D front panel controls as
shown below. Ignore any knobs or switches that have no value indicated.
1. These settings isolate OSCILLATOR–1 and route it through the FILTER . You can
use the OSCILLATOR–1/RANGE knob to select different octave settings and the
WAVEFORM knob to listen to the distinct harmonic content of each waveform.
2. In the FILTER section, experiment with the CUTOFF FREQUENCY and
EMPHASIS knob settings to see how the FILTER affects each of the different
Oscillator Waveforms.
3. To make the sound less organ-like, first turn on the DECAY switch located above the
PITCH and MOD wheels at the left end of the keyboard. Then play with the position of
the ATTACK TIME and DECAY TIME knobs in the LOUDNESS CONTOUR .
4. The FILTER has its own ATTACK TIME and DECAY TIME knobs. As you adjust
these values, you will also need to raise the AMOUNT OF CONTOUR value to hear
the effect. Continue to explore the FILTER CUTOFF and EMPHASIS knobs as you
change these settings.
NOTE: Each of the knobs, switches, and other controls are explained in more detail in the
following sections of the manual.
