Description
A whole new world of freaky sounds for Moogerfooger devotees!
The MF-107 FreqBox is different from other effects. The effected sound is not a processed version of your input signal, but the sound of the input signal modulating an internal oscillator. It contains a VCO with continuously variable waveshape, and the capacity to modulate that Oscillator in the following ways:
the VCO can be hard synced by the input signal
The VCO can be frequency modulated (FM) by the input signal
The VCO frequency can be modulated by an envelope follower which tracks the dynamics of the input signal
The Amplitude of the VCO also tracks the dynamics of the input signal
Hard sync is a classic analog synthesis technique where the start of an oscillator's cycle can be reset by another. The oscillator being synced takes on the frequency characteristics of the other oscillator, and when its frequency is swept, it reinforces the harmonics of the fundamental frequency. In the case of the FreqBox, the input signal is used to reset the FreqBox's VCO.
FM is a technique used to get really rich sounds from simple waveforms. The type of FM used in the FreqBox pedal is linear FM. Sounds range from gong or bell-like tones to sizzly sweeps.
The FreqBox, like all moogerfoogers, works with any instrument-to-line-level input. In addition to the panel controls there are control inputs for use with expression pedals or control voltages and control outputs for interconnecting moogerfoogers like you would a modular synth.
The FreqBox effects pedal can provide some really unusual processing to all types of signals - guitars, synths, drum sounds, vocals or wind instruments allowing you to enter previously unexplored sonic territory.
This is an incredibly creative piece of gear that both the creative musician and skilled engineer need to have in their arsenal.
Incredible for sound design. Just like the Lowpass filter where I use the envelope amount, I do a similar thing with the freq box. I really like sticking this on a bus for drums to create a resonant spacing and turn the mix down very low. This is an incredibly creative piece of gear that both the creative musician and skilled engineer need to have in their arsenal.
