Cool new music tool from Bob Moog

Bob Moog's company -- Moogmusic -- manufactures a line of pedals called Moogerfoogers - he has taken the classic Moog filters and effects and repackaged them into classic stomp-boxes. His latest one looks awesome -- from the website:

MF-433
This very limited edition Moogerfooger offers a quiet reflective sound. It is the perfect accompaniment to obnoxious guitar solos - simply press the bypass switch and luxuriate in 4 minutes and 33 seconds of pure warm analog silence. It's a great way to encourage audience participation - primarily the sounds of them shifting uncomfortably in their seats, coughing, muttering and cursing amongst themselves, as well as the occasional catcall. Really talented MF-4'33" performers may even cause flying produce to appear. When the audience finally relaxes, focusses, and listens, they will discover a whole new world of sounds around them of which they were previously not aware.

Bob describes the sound as somewhat "cagey" and says that it could be his greatest achievement in guitar effects.

Orders will be taken from now through April 1st only. After that the MF-4'33" will be effectively silenced forever.

Referring of course to this which is actually quite beautiful when performed correctly... Posted by DaveH at April 1, 2005 11:56 AM
