Maceo Parker Improv Experiment w/Moogerfoogers

Maceo Parker came to visit the Moog factory in Asheville, NC last week and treated us to an impromptu improv in the Moog Sound Lab. While Maceo wailed away we couldn’t resist filtering and modulating his sound through the Moogerfoogers. Beginning with the natural sound of Maceo’s Fresh N’ Funky Alto Sax, we quickly hurdle into another dimension by adding the MF-101 Low Pass Filter to the mix. Crankin’ on the Cutoff knob of the MF-101 Low Pass Filter draws out an analog “Wah“ that allows for additional sonic articulations -- say, “Wah-wah What?!?“ It is recommended to keep the Resonance Mix on the high side to bring out the most color when using this charismatic extension of your horn’s voice. The MF-102 Ring Modulator, and MF-103 12-Stage Phaser are being used here to add anywhere from subtle tremolo effects, to mild grit to the tones being passed from the MF-101 Low Pass Filter, and MF-104Z Analog Delay. The root of all Space-Funk is in our MF-104Z Analog Delay --
