“It is an immense honor to be recognized with a TEC award for the Modular Recreation,” said Adams. “The award is a testament to the genius of Bob Moog’s original designs created over 40 years ago, and the hard work our team at Moog Music has put into faithfully recreating these classic instruments.”
Presented by the NAMM Foundation, the TEC Awards celebrate the best in professional audio technology and sound production. TEC award recipients are selected by a panel of respected industry professionals from the audio and creative disciplines. In addition to its win for the Modular Recreation, Moog Music was also nominated in the Musical Instrument Amplification & Effects category for its MF-Chorus and MF-Flange Minifooger analog effects pedals.
Modular Recreation
Following
its recreation of the Emerson Moog Modular system last year, Moog began
handcrafting three more modular systems starting in January 2015. These
Modular Recreations include the System 55, the System 35 and the Model
15 analog synthesizers. Each system matches the original product
specifications, manufacturing techniques and processes from the 1970s.
Every module is built just as they were in 1973 - by hand-stuffing and
hand-soldering components to circuit boards, and using traditional
wiring methods. Even the front panels are photo-etched aluminum, a
classic process rarely used today, to maintain the classic and durable
look of vintage Moog modules.For more information on Moog's modular synthesizers, please visit http://www.moogmusic.com/
