MF 108M CLUSTER FLUX USER S MANUAL Www americanmusical com m aes an m E 00 Jerfooger ME 108 STER FL t pw WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF MOOGERFOOGER ANALOG EFFECTS MODULES Your MF 108M Cluster Flux is a rugged professional quality instrument designed to be at home on stage or in the studio lts great sound and jaw dropping effects come from state of the art analog circuitry designed and handcrafted by our team at MOOG Music in Asheville North Carolina The MF 108M is rooted in the analog wizardry of Bob Moog s mooger fooger designs It is a direct descendent of the original Moog modular synthesizers and professional rack effects Your Cluster Flux offers two basic functions A dual range Bucket Brigade Device BBD Delay Line designed for very short delay times and a multi waveform Low Frequency Oscillator LFO capable of modulating the Delay Line for a variety of effects including Chorus Flanging and Vibrato Several of the performance parameters are voltage controllable This means you can use expression pedals a MIDI to CV converter or any other source of control voltage such as other moogerfoogers to play your MF 108M In addition the front panel rotary controls and switches can be controlled through the use of MIDI and the LFO can be synced to a MIDI Clock While you can use it on the floor like a conventional effects box your Cluster Flux is much more versatile lts sound quality is higher than mo2. BBD output fed back into the input of the BBDs In Flange Mode this is used to increase the sharpness and intensity of peaks in the frequency response of the comb filter Both Positive and Negative Feedback are available with zero feedback at mid position In Flange Mode Positive Feedback emphasizes all the harmonics of a fundamental frequency equal to the inverse of the Delay time For instance 10 msec Delay creates a comb filter with a fundamental frequency of 100 Hz and emphasis at 200 Hz 300 Hz 400 Hz 500 Hz etc Negative Feedback shifts the frequency response spectrum down by one octave which causes only odd harmonics to be emphasized For instance a 10 msec delay time with negative feedback creates a comb filter with a fundamental frequency of 50 Hz and harmonic emphasis at 150 Hz 250 Hz 350 Hz 450 Hz etc In Chorus mode because the delay time is usually longer than the time period of the fundamental frequency of the input signal the difference in tone between positive and negative feedback is much less noticeable WARNING The Cluster Flux Feedback control is designed to drive the delay line into self oscillation This means the Cluster Flux is capable of producing a tone without any audio signal present Tones produced by self oscillating feedback may be much stronger than normal signal levels so watch your speakers and ears Oscillation begins at the 4th indicator lines both left and and right of the Feedback controls mid p
