The Moogerfooger Ring Modulator that provides a wide-range carrier oscillator and dual sine/square waveform LFO and is available in AAX, TDM, RTAS, and AudioSuite formats. Add motion to rhythm tracks and achieve radical lo-fidelity textures—you set the limits!
Like the Lowpass Filter, the Moogerfooger Ring Modulator has its roots in the original MOOG Modular synthesizers. It provides three classic MOOG modules: a Low Frequency Oscillator, a Carrier Oscillator, and a Ring Modulator.
Low Frequency Oscillators (or LFOs) create slow modulations like vibrato and tremolo. The LFO in the Moogerfooger Ring Modulator is a wide-range, dual-waveform (sine/square) oscillator.
The Carrier Oscillator is a wide-range sinusoidal oscillator. It’s called the Carrier Oscillator because, like the carrier of an AM radio signal, it’s always there, ready to be modulated by the input.
A Ring Modulator takes two inputs, and outputs the sum and difference frequencies of the two inputs. For example, if the first input contains a 500 Hz sine wave, and the second input contains a 100 Hz sine wave, then the output contains a 600 Hz sine wave (500 plus 100) and a 400 Hz (500 minus 100) sine wave.
