	SYNTHESIS TECHNOLOGY MOTM SYNTHESIZER--A Modular Analog Synthesizer That Surpasses All Expectations
		Whereas a MIDI-controlled synthesizer, by its nature, operates in terms of discrete note events, a modular synth works from a continuum: sound is created by complex swings in voltage and the interacting patterns of clocks and switches.
		A patch on a modular synth is an environment for inflection and nuance: a living and changing entity far removed from the preset mentality brought on by recent keyboard developments.
		Using a modular hardware synthesizer is a truly satisfying plug-and-play experience.

	Glossary: Analog Synthesizer \| Sweetwater.com
		An analog (see WFTD archive Analog) synthesizer uses voltage controlled analog modules to synthesize sound.
		The concept of a variety of analog modules, all of which can interconnect via a standardized voltage control system, was invented by Dr. Robert Moog.
		The oscillator (see WFTD archive Oscillator) generates a periodic waveform, the filter (see WFTD archive filter) is usually employed to remove certain frequencies from the waveform, and the amp is used to vary the attack and decay characteristics (see WFTD archive ADSR).

	Analog Devices: Analog Dialogue: Single-Chip Direct Digital Synthesis vs. the Analog PLL (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Output-frequency switching time: the analog PLL frequency switching time is a function of its feedback loop settling time and VCO response time, typically > 1 ms.
		C-DDS-based synthesizers are immune to such loop filter stability issues and are tunable over the full Nyquist range (< 1/2 the clock rate).
		The output phase noise of a C-DDS synthesizer is actually better than that of its reference clock source, while analog PLL-based synthesizers have the disadvantage of actually multiplying the phase noise present in their frequency reference.

	eBay Guides - Buying Analog Synthesizers on eBay
		Basically, analog sound is sound where the frequency of electrical impulses that exist inside the wire are equal to the frequencies of soundwaves that are produced when those impulses are translated to soundwaves by a speaker.
		Often, synthesizers go for the price they do because there is a hype associated with its name, and this hype may have nothing at all to do with what the synthesizer can do.
		A synthesizer that sounds good because it was used in a song that everyone likes is not the same as a synthesizer that sounds good and is used by many professionals across a wealth of genres.

	Definition of Analog synthesizer
		An analog synthesizer is a synthesizer that uses analog computer techniques to generate sound electronically.
		Analog syntheisizers were mostly replaced by digital synthesizers and samplers over the late 1980s and early 1990s.
		In the late 1990s, a fashion emerged for "retro" analog synthesizers, with their proponents claiming that the "analog sound" of old analog synthesizers was better than the sound of current digital synthesizers.

	Analog Boot Camp
		Analog signals have two key properties: (1) they are continuous, and (2) their parameters - frequency, amplitude, and phase - are continuously (and infinitely) variable.
		Many famous analog machines (such as the Moog 55 and ARP 2500) were modular, so the term is often associated with analog synthesizers.
		Analog modeling is a type of physical modeling, but it imitates electronic hardware instead of mechanical or acoustic systems.

	Synhouse MIDIJACK 303 Analog User Manual
		If the analog synthesizer is set to have a filter envelope with the sustain stage set to a fairly low cutoff frequency on the lowpass filter, playing a continuous passage of notes without pauses will give the mellow sound of lounge music.
		It may be easiest to hear the tones clearly by adjusting the analog synthesizer so that the filter is open with the frequency set to maximum, the resonance (also known as "Q", or emphasis) set to minimum, and the envelope generators set to sustain, without any vibrato on the oscillators.
		Analog calibration should only be performed occasionally, as overuse of the scale adjustment trimmer may cause excessive wear and premature failure of the part.

	Synthesizer
		The Moog synthesizer even spawned a subculture of record producers who made novelty "Moog" recordings, depending on the odd new sounds made by their synthesizers (which were not always made by Moog) to draw attention and sales.
		One major innovation by Moog was in 1970, when they made a synthesizer with a built-in keyboard and without modular design--the analog circuits were retained, but made interconnectable with switches in a simplified arrangement called "normalization".
		One kind of synthesizer starts with a binary digital recording of an existing sound, which is then replayed at a range of pitches.

	So you want to build an analog synthesizer?
		This is a really cool analog lab project involving a wide range of interesting circuits, but there is a right way and a wrong way to spend your (valuable) time doing it.
		To get maximum flexibility out of your synthesizer, what you really want is not a synth that can play a lot of different notes at once, but a synth that can produce a wide range of timbres.
		Thus, the preferred method for building an analog synth is to build a single voice, modular synthesizer that has maximum flexibility to adjust the timbre of the sound.
