The moogerfooger Ring Modulator multiplies an audio input and a carrier oscillator to produce sum and difference frequencies. The unit has a wide-range carrier oscillator (2 Hz to 4 kHz in 2 ranges) and a dual-waveform LFO (0.1 Hz to 25 Hz, sine and square waveforms). The control parameters are signal mix, carrier frequency, LFO rate, and LFO amount, all of which may be voltage-controlled as well as panel-knob-controlled. Panel switches select carrier oscillator range and LFO waveform. Moog provides 1/4 in. TRS jacks for pedal/control inputs, auxiliary audio input, and LFO and carrier oscillator outputs.
Features
Frequency rotary control, which varies the carrier frequency frequency over a 6-octave range
Rate rotary control, which varies the LFO's frequency from 0.1 Hz to 25 Hz.
LFO Amount rotary control, which adjusts the amount that the LFO output sweeps the carrier oscillator
Mix rotary control, which crossfades continuously from unmodulated to modulated audio
Drive rotary control, which adjusts the gain of the audio input
Square-Sine rocker switch, which chooses the LFO waveform
Lo-Hi rocker switch, which chooses between the low frequency carrier range (2 Hz to 130 Hz) and the high frequency carrier range (60 Hz to 4,000 Hz)
Level, a 3-color LED that is used to set the Drive control
LFO, a LED that indicates the LFO rate
Bypass, a 2-color indicator LED that tells whether the filter is on or bypassed
On/Bypass, a rugged, smooth-acting 'stomp switch'
Jack Panel Features
Audio In 1/4 in. phone jack: accepts any instrument-level or line-level audio signal from -16 dBm to +4 dbm
Audio Out 1/4 in. phone jack: -4 dBm nominal output level
Frequency, Rate, LFO Amount, Mix, all of which are stereo 1/4 in. jacks that accept moogerfooger EP1 (or equivalent) expression pedals, or control voltages from 2-circuit or 3-circuit 1/4 in. jacks.
Aux Audio In: provides a means of applying an external signal to the ring mdulator, in place of the carrier oscillator
LFO Out jack: delivers the LFO voltage for use by other voltage-controlled devices.
Carrier Out jack: delivers the carrier signal for use by other devices
+9V Power Input jack: accepts standard 9 volt power adapters (power adapter included)
