Kenton Multimoog MIDI Retrofit Kit

multimoogrk glareremoved

The Kenton Multimoog MIDI Retrofit Kit gives you enhanced control over your Multimoog using MIDI, allowing you to control it from your DAW, sequencer or other controller. You can control notes, modulation, pitchbend and the Multimoog’s LFO and filter cut-off. In addition, the MIDI Retrofit Kit gives you sustain and slide/portamento. See below for a full list of features.

Installing a retrofit kit is a skilled job which should be undertaken only by a competent synth service engineer or installed by us at our premises in Tadworth, just outside London. Note also that retrofit kits are always built to order after your payment has been processed. It then takes us up to 10 working days to build and test the kit before we can despatch it.
