I bought this new from The Synthesizer Company back in the 90's. Only used by me in my private smoke-free studio, this Studio Electronics 'MidiMoog' contains all the original electronics from a 60's/70's MiniMoog Model D, adapted into a rackmount case with Midi added (by Studio Electronics). This one is serial number #61, made about a year before Robert Moog sued Studio Electronics and forced them to make their own synth (which was called the 'MidiMini' and soon after , 'The SE1' - neither of which were allowed to use Bob Moog's legendary Filter or Oscillator designs, as featured on this classic Moog Synth). This 'MidiMoog' unit contains all the electronics from an original R A Moog 'MiniMoog' Model D and sounds absolutely incredible. Studio Electronics added a few extra features, including some extra stabilisation on the Oscillators, and selectable midi channel (via a knob on the front panel ! ). There never was a user manual for the Minimoog or this MidiMoog, as it is totally intuitive to operate and use. Expect fat, gorgeous sounds, and there is an analogue input on the rear so you can also use the exquisite Moog filters and envelope shapers to process external audio sound coming through the Moog. It is built into a lovely 4unit rack case, is in pristine physical and electronic condition, and comes flight cased in a soft 4U flight case(baggy) which has protected it for the last 30+ years (hence the great condition).

Here's Tim Goodyear's review in Music Technology 1989:-

The MIDImoog takes original Minimoog electronics, a healthy MIDI spec and few new features besides, and packs them into a 4U rack space. Meet the Minimoog for the '90s.

IT SHOULD HAVE happened sooner. Almost as soon as the Minimoog was withdrawn from production (back in 1981) musicians and producers christened it the classic synthesiser. As such it's continued to play an active part in the making of music as diverse as the pomp rock of Marillion and the DJ's revenge of Bomb the Bass. And there's no sign of it letting up yet. No sign, that is, as long as you consider Studio Electronics' MIDImoog to be a Minimoog.
