68 ARTURIA – MOOG MODULAR V 2.6 – USER’S MANUAL
7 THE MODULES
The Moog Modular V can be broken down into 4 parts, from top to bottom, a section containing
sequencer and effects, a section dedicated to the sound programming, a small extension
where the external cables are regrouped (velocity, after-touch, external signals...) and finally a
section containing the keyboard and different play settings.
7.1 P ROGRAMMING SECTION
7.1.1 Description
The programming section gathers all of the modules, which need to be connected by cables. It
is on this screen that the different connections (Patch) needed for the programming of the
sound will be made.
It is sometimes necessary to connect a module in the programming section to a module in the
sequencer section. To simplify connections between the 2 screens, the inputs and outputs of
the sequencer section are grouped on a small extension under the sound programming
section.
The sound programming section contains:
• Nine oscillators, grouped in threes, which can also be used as modulation source.
• Two low frequency oscillators dedicated to modulations.
• Three filters.
• Six envelopes dedicated to modulations.
• Two envelopes dedicated to output amplifiers.
• A dual trigger delay.
• A noise generator and the associated filters.
• 1 ring modulator
• 4 envelope followers
• 2 sample and holds
• 1 frequency translators
• 1 formant filter
• A set of amplifiers, which can be grouped to form mixers.
The number of spaces at the upper part of the section being inferior to the number of modules,
the choice is made through a menu. It is thus possible to organize them at your convenience.
7.1.2 Oscillators
The oscillators, nine in total are regrouped in threes. Each group has a 921A type controller
and three 921B type slave oscillators.
