Analog synthesizer
An analog or analogue synthesizer (or analog synth) is a synthesizer that uses analog circuits and analog computer techniques to generate sound electronically. The earliest analog synthesizers in the 1920s and 1930s such as the Trautonium were built with a variety of vacuum-tube (thermionic valve) and electro-mechanical technologies. After the 1960s, analog synthesizers were built with a variety of operational amplifier (op-amp) integrated circuits, along with potentiometer (pot, or variable resistor) to adjust the traits of the sound that is produced. Analog synthesizers also use low-pass filters and high-pass filters to modify the sound. While 1960s-era analog synthesizers such as the Moog used a number of independent electronic modules connected by patch cables, later analog synthesizers such as the Minimoog integrated them into single units, eliminating patch cords in favour of integrated signal routing systems.

Analog synthesizer
En analog synthesizer byggs med främst analoga komponenter som resistorer, kondensatorer, transistorer, dioder och integrerade operationsförstärkare, med vilka ljudet alstras och manipuleras. Även digitala integrerade kretsar och mikroprocessorer kan användas för att kontrollera sådant som tangenter, reglage, teckenfönster, och elektroniska gränssnitt. Är de däremot inblandade i själva ljudgenereringen hamnar vi i någon av kategorierna nedan. Exempel på analoga synthesizers är Moog Music Mini Moog och PAiA FatMan.

Analog Synthesizer
A synthesizer which uses voltage controlled analog modules to synthesize sound. The three main voltage controlled modules in an analog synthesizer are: Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO), Voltage Controlled Filter (VCF), and Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA).
