The Moog Memorymoog was a six-voice programmable analogue synthesiser built around 18 voltage-controlled oscillators, six Moog 24dB-per-octave filters, six amplifiers and 12 ADSR contour generators. Its architecture combined three oscillators per voice with extensive LFO and voice modulation, oscillator sync, programme memory, multiple keyboard assignment modes, an arpeggiator, programmable foot controls, cassette storage and a 61-key keyboard. The Moog Memorymoog became the original Moog Music company’s final commercially released synthesiser and remains historically significant as its most substantial attempt to carry the fundamental three-oscillator Moog synthesiser architecture into the programmable polyphonic era.
