The first prototype '''Moog Modular Synthesizer''', designed by [[Bob Moog]] was built in 1964 and by 1967 was a commercially available product line. These consisted of [[Moog 900-series modules]] housed in walnut cabinets. The 900-series modules use [[CV/Gate|S-Trigger]], which drops a +5V level to 0V when a trigger is sent, and not the more widely used [[CV/Gate|Gate]] which raise 0V to a higher voltage.<ref name="vse">Vintage Synth Explorer, [http://www.vintagesynth.com/moog/modular.php Moog Modular Synthesizers]</ref><ref>Wikipedia:[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CV/Gate CV/Gate]</ref><ref>Synthesizers.com: [http://www.synthesizers.com/gates.html Gates and Triggers, Mystery Solved]</ref>
 
The 900-series modules modules use [[CV/Gate|S-Trigger]] and not the more widely used [[CV/Gate|Gate]]. This drops +5V to 0V when a trigger is sent, the opposite of what’s commonly used in other synths, which raise 0V to a higher voltage.<ref name="vse"/><ref>Wikipedia:[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CV/Gate CV/Gate]</ref><ref>Synthesizers.com: [http://www.synthesizers.com/gates.html Gates and Triggers, Mystery Solved]</ref>
