Sales of synthesizers, guitars, effects pedals and Theremins are up 35 percent through April 2011 over the same period last year, says Moog (mohg) President Mike Adams. And the North Carolina-based company is moving next week to renovated buildings in downtown Asheville where passersby will be able to watch the instruments being made and musicians working in the studio space.

"If you buy any other keyboard and open the back, you see a chip in there that's sampling sounds or re-creating sounds using a digitized format," Adams said in a phone interview Friday.

"In the back of our device, there's a sound board with 897 components," he said. "It's a completely different sound you get. You're really able to hear the subtleties of the sound."

The company and its 45 employees will move Friday from their current quarters to the new downtown spot, a renovated automobile dealership that includes an elevator that was used to take cars to the second floor. The warehouse will be located in a former horse stable.

The first day in the new factory will be May 23, which would have been founder Robert Moog's 79th birthday. It's a happy coincidence, Adams says, because the company originally was supposed to move in March.
