Today, the words Moog and synthesizer are all but synonymous. For any musician, owning a Moog synth is special, since the Moog sound is something that has been often imitated, but never quite replicated. Books have been written on the Moog legacy, so we’ll stop here with the history and cut to the chase. In the modern hardware synth renaissance, Moog is a force to be reckoned with, with a lineup of synths that are visually and sonically drool-worthy. One particular synth stands out amongst the rest when it comes to the most recommended “starter” Moog, and one of the most recommended starter synths in general - the Moog Sub Phatty.So, what exactly is the Sub Phatty? It’s a 25-key, fully analog, monophonic synthesizer (a.k.a. monosynth , meaning it only produces one note at a time). Don’t be let down about the fact that it’s monophonic; Considering it’s under $1,000 and an extremely well built all-analog Moog synth, that’s par for the course. Besides, its strength is not playing chords. The Sub Phatty is an absolute monster (in a good way) when it comes to basses and leads, for which one note at a time is fully sufficient. We’ll talk more about the sound later. First, let’s get into the features.After a straightforward unboxing, you’re looking at a compact 25-key (i.e. 2 octave) synth with a small footprint, which is great for carrying to and from gigs or if desk space is at a premium. Because it’s a Moog, the build quality, fit, and finish is outstanding. The unit just feels solid, and nothing seems to have been compromised. The most striking thing about the Sub Phatty is its layout. Every single knob and button is right there, waiting to be tweaked (the knobs feel great to turn, by the way). There are no LED screens or menus

Moog One plugin? Anyone have any info on this product? Seems it’s justsample-based, not a virtual analog synth. I can’t find any reviews of it anywhere.

Quote: Originally Posted by MadSlut ➡️ Someone sampled 34 patches from moog one and made a Kontakt library, thats all. Yes, understood that. I would like to find out more info about the seller, and a review of the patches. There is none of either. Which makes me suspicious about the product..probably done with Sample Robot. Now that InMusic has purchased Moog Music, fired most of the staff, and is moving manufacturing overseas, it's my educated guess that they will focus more on software and likely make few, if any, new hardware synths.I just spent a few days with the Moog Model 15 plugin, right after playing with a hardware Moog Model 10 at Perfect Circuit here in Burbank. To my ears the Model 15 sounds so close to the hardware that it negates any need to buy the hardware. And at $30, it's a hell of a lot easier on your wallet than $11k. And you can store your patches, which you can't do on the hardware.This leads me to believe that a Moog One plugin is likely sometime late next year, or perhaps earlier. I think it could be as much as $149 and it would sell. Actually if it was really great I'd pay $200 for it.

If they made a Moog One plugin that could be controlled from a HW Moog One and expanded the polyphony and multitimbral capabilities, I’d be all in!

We're talking about inMusic, owners of Air and Sonivox, so I'd expect the plugin to be $9.99 after 6 months and given away for free by Plugin Boutique late next year Gear Addict Quote: Originally Posted by Dave Polich ➡️ This leads me to believe that a Moog One plugin is likely sometime late next year, or perhaps earlier.

Let me know in the comments.Best Hardware Synths of 2024: Moog MuseYou can count the number of polyphonic synths that Moog has released on one hand, so any new poly from the legendary company is going to be cause for celebration. That goes double when it’s as beautiful and inspiring an instrument as the Muse. Moog Muse · Source: Moog MusicBased on circuitry borrowed from a variety of past Moog triumphs, including the Voyager, MF-102 Ring Modulator and 904a Filter, Muse has that Moog sound, plus a number of unique synthesis features that set it apart from other big polys. With eight voices of polyphony, two VCOs per and a modulation oscillator, plus dual filters and a stereo VCA, it’s plenty capable. Upping the ante are probabilistic and generative features in the sequencer, parameter recording, and a surprising Diffusion Delay effect.Beyond all of this though, it just sounds amazing. Very Moog yet also modern, with a beefiness and edge that I found lacking in the Moog One, it’s the flagship that we’ve long waited for.Affiliate Links You are currently viewing a placeholder content from YouTube.
