Development
In early 1970, Moog Co. began losing money as interest in its modular synthesizers fell. Fearing they would lose their jobs if the company closed, the engineers developed the final version of Hemsath's miniature synthesizer, the Minimoog Model D, while Moog was away. Moog chastised them, but came to see the potential in the Model D and authorized its production.
