Moog Spectravox Semi-Modular Analog Spectral Processor

Explore the Rich Sonic Landscape with Moog Spectravox
Dive into the vast possibilities of sound design with the Moog Spectravox, a semi-modular analog spectral processor that serves as both an instrument and signal processor. This device stands out in the Moog family for its versatility and comprehensive patch bay, making it a perfect fit for studios of any size. The Spectravox offers a unique 10-band filter bank that can produce vibrant drones and tonal sweeps independently, or add new dimensions of resonant depth and psychedelic movement to external sounds.

Transform Sounds with Advanced Analog Processing
The Spectravox doesn't just alter sound; it reinvents it. Inspired by the Moog 907 Fixed Filter Bank from the 1960s, this modern unit provides dynamic control over each frequency band, allowing for detailed sculpting of audio signals. Its filters can shift collectively across the frequency spectrum, facilitated by voltage control, enabling you to create phaser-like sweeps and otherworldly spectral animations that breathe new life into any sound source.

Dual Functionality: Synthesizer and Vocoder
Not only does the Spectravox function superbly as a standalone synthesizer with its robust analog Moog oscillator and white-noise generator, but it also operates as a full-featured 10-band vocoder. Connect a microphone or another audio source to unlock vocal shaping capabilities or use other instruments to modulate sounds in unique ways, thanks to its versatile inputs and outputs.

Connect and Expand Your Audio Experience
The Spectravox is designed for seamless integration into your existing setup, whether you use it as a synth voice, a CV-controlled filter bank, or a vocoder. With 36 patch points, it invites deeper exploration and connectivity with other Moog semi-modular instruments or Eurorack modules, offering extensive control over critical parameters and enhancing your creative workflow.

A Nod to Synthesis History and Innovation
Drawing inspiration from the pioneering vocoding work of Bob Moog and Wendy Carlos, and even earlier designs by Homer Dudley, the Spectravox is a testament to the evolution of music technology. It combines historical concepts with modern innovation, using state-variable filters for its filter bank, capable of significant tonal manipulation, from emphasizing vowel sounds to creating complex textures with external control voltage.
