The Electric Company - tr words

A short from The Electric Company. Full of tasty Moog sounds for your enjoyment. Animation studio that created this is unknown, but I believe they may have done films for Sesame Street also.

Now... I dunno for sure... but it sounds more like a Waldorf synth to me. But I may be 100% off-base.

[love2register]

afraid you're 100% off sweetie, no Waldorf in 70's for starters

And yes they did animate for Sesame Street, hon. "Big, bigger, biggest" spring to mind? Same animation house.

When you say "they did animate" I take it you mean animators did work for both Sesame and Electic Co.? I suggested that in this vid's description.

I remember the "bigger..." one but sounds like Moog to me.

Feel free to repost your comment about Jim Boyd, etc...accidentally deleted (sorry, getting too quick on the draw I guess due to spam). Again sounds like Moog to me but I understand you've heard about Electric Co. using a Waldorf prototype and feel that it's used here based on the sound.

@Ian16545 Even more so, it's the actual "Spot" variant, with the "elementary-style" lowercase a and g.

The "Spot" font (Century Schoolbook Infant) strikes again!

[RJSchex]

One other sketch in this series involved the "sp" sound—what comes to mind was "pin/spin". Also, Sesame Street had on episode #2476 a sketch, "Zet", with the same animation, font, and sound effects.

Yeah it does sound like a moog synthesizer did the sound effects for this.
