Google has expanded its expansive range of memorable Google Doodles with the 78th birthday of musician and inventor Robert Moog celebrated with a fully playable digital synthesizer.
Following on from past interactive Doodles such as the infamous Pac Man Doodle and video-based Halloween offering, Google has celebrated the life of Robert Moog, a man who invented the synthesizer back in 1964 before passing away in 2005.
Enabling users to record and share their down digitally altered synth tunes, the latest Google Doodle boasts a fully working selection of volume and effect controls with those visiting Google’s search engine homepage today able to click the virtual keys to create true-to-life sounds.
Ensuring thousands of man hours are averted from work-based tasks, Google has allowed users of the Doodle based synthesizer to record their makeshift tracks and share their workings via the company’s own social network, Google+ or link to their recordings.
