The Bob Moog Foundation is incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation under the laws of the State of North Carolina for the primary purpose of preserving and honoring the legacy of Bob Moog through science, education, and historical preservation. The Bob Moog Foundation 2021 Spring Minimoog Raffle is conducted for the purpose of generating operating funds that allow the foundation to continue and expand its work.
Today the Bob Moog Foundation announces its spring raffle featuring a coveted, fully restored vintage Minimoog synthesizer with a custom cabinet fabricated from rare African Makore wood, known for its beauty, strength, and durability.
The historic Abominatron tape is the audio recording originally sent to Herb Deutsch from Bob Moog in 1965, in which Bob explains in his own voice, every parameter of the Moog synthesizer prototype. The 84-minute reel-to-reel tape was donated to the Bob Moog Foundation Archives by Herb Deutsch, and has been carefully restored and transferred to digital format by Seva.
“With all of the challenges of 2020, we need your help more than ever to bring Bob’s spirit forward to future generations … by inspiring people of all ages to transform the world around them.” – Michelle Moog-Koussa, Executive Director, Bob Moog Foundation/Moogseum
