3.2 Mini-Moog
Make the following connections with patch cords between the programmer and
the Mini:
PROGRAMMER
MINI-MOOG
SWITCH TRIGGER
S-TRIGGER
VOLTAGE 1
OSCILLATOR CONTROL
INPUT
ENVELOPE 1
LOUDNESS CONTROL
INPUT
ENVELOPE 2
FILTER CONTROL
INPUT
To connect the S-trigger, a special phono to Cinch plug cable is required. These
are available from Sequential Circuits Co. (# 825).
Set the following controls on the Mini:
1)
CUTOFF FREQUENCY fully counter-clockwise
2)
AMOUNT OF CONTOUR fully counter-clockwise
3)
LOUDNESS ATTACK
fully counter-clockwise
4)
LOUDNESS DECAY
fully clockwise
5)
LOUDNESS SUSTAIN
fully clockwise
6)
DECAY
switch
on
You are now ready to start setting up your programs. Mini-Moogs often require
the programmer to be tuned to match exactly, as described in section 1.4. Use
the 440 oscillator as the reference for tuning, rather than two oscillators.
When using the Mini in this set-up, the three oscillators cannot be used
separately. There is a fairly simple modification that can be performed to Minis to
allow access to all three oscillators separately (by VOLTAGE 1, VOLTAGE 2,
and VOLTAGE 3). The following procedure is used for modifying the Mini. We
suggest that you have a local service man do the changes, or you can ship the
unit to us, and we will do the modification for a small fee.
1) Expose the electronics by removing the back metal cover held on by 18 sheet
metal screws.
2) Remove both right-hand circuit boards (looking at the rear) and set them
aside temporarily.
