Does any know of a modern, Eurorack alternative to the Moog Moogerfooger Control Processor? It was a desktop CV processor/generator.
I know the answer is probably get a 4ms Pod and Maths, but i wondered if anyone had any other ideas.
Thanks in advance.
The Behringer Neutron comes close with a patchable LFO, two attenuators, two utility mixers (Sum 1 and Sum 2), inverter, sample and hold, noise, and slew rate limiter. It also has a multiple but only has two multiple outs as opposed to the CP-251’s three multiple outs.
Thank you so much! That is a very clever answer. I do not think it would have occurred to me to at a desktop modular synth. I will add it to the list, especially since a case, power source, and modules can get expensive very quickly.
I have a Moog CP-251 and a Neutron and got a second Neutron for its extra utilities and additional paraphony. I noticed the similarities between the functionality of its patch bay and the CP-251.
Well, then thank you for taking the time to respond. Was a shot in the dark and it worked.
Bit ironic that the CP-251 is no longer available given how popular modular is now. I know it used 1/4" (if I recall correctly, it’s been a long time since I had mine!), but it is hard to believe they haven’t reissued it with Eurorack standard connections.
Yes it uses 1/4" cables. A Eurorack version of the CP-251 is a nice idea. It’s not easy to find a reasonable price for a used CP-251 these days. It’s a shame Moog discontinued the Moogerfooger line. The Moogerfoogers are my favorite effects pedals along with Chase Bliss pedals.
A few weeks ago I was contemplating on swapping my Moogerfoogers for eurorack modules, but after I played with them for a few minutes I took that back and flushed that idea without blinking.
Was looking for a CP-251 last year, came back from that trip really fast.
It’s mostly basic utilities. “dual waveform LFO, Noise Generator, Sample-and-Hold circuit, as well as two attenuators, a lag processor, a CV mixer and a 4-way mult.“
A MATHs would give you 2 channels that each could be LFOs (Capable of more than 2 waveforms) or lag processors as well as a CV mixer in the center. There are many modules available that provide noise and sample + hold. Attenuators and mults are also readily available. If you are using stackable cables, you don’t need mults.
True, and I loved my Maths when I had a Eurorack system, but the CP-251 was a standalone unit. Even a small 4ms pod and power brick alone would cost over $100. I would love to find a desktop solution that doesn’t require sourcing the parts individually.
But it is possible that if i found some of that stuff secondhand it could be cheaper… thanks for the replies, everyone!
Wow. Looks like good fun. They should totally bring that back in their 60hp format.
Out of curiosity: if your don’t have modular, what do you want to use it for?
After swearing off hardware I kind of fell into a Minilogue XD module via a Korg NTS-1 that was the gateway. 
The XD has two CV inputs that would be fun to (ab)use. A small, tactile hardware modulator would be more fun than just using MIDI, I think, so I was curious about what was out there. Long ago I used a CP-251 with a Lil Phatty and it was great fun. 
Eurorack is always an option but the case and power supply entry fees always bum me out. Would rather have a self-contained unit. The 0-Ctrl looked amazing until I found out there is no built-in quantizer. UGH.
Yeah it really does dampen the initial drive into modular.
Have one, just another gateway into euro…
