Moog Music Forum

Crosspost for those who, like me, rarely look at General Topics forum: I recently watched the 2004 documentary "Moog" via Netflix streaming and loved every minute of it. So much insight into Bob Moog's philosophy and the evolution of the instruments. I think it's fair to say that if you're...

I recently watched the 2004 documentary "Moog" via Netflix streaming and loved every minute of it. So much insight into Bob Moog's philosophy and the evolution of the instruments. I think it's fair to say that if you're reading this you want to watch this film.

Just installed latest on my first-generation iPad and I'm so happy with improved behavior. I can now start it without first forcing every other app closed. Thanks, Moog!

New release is getting some 1-star ratings in the App Store but no reviews. Can anyone who has tried it enlighten us? I'm especially concerned about it working on an iPad 1, since right now I'm right on the edge. I can only start it if I shut down all other programs in the multitasker first.

Glad you worked this out. I'm sure your detailed notes will help others down the line.

The free program iFunbox lets you shuffle stuff within iOS while connected by USB. It's quite wonderful.

iOS 5.1.1. Probably memory related. If I manually kill all the active apps first it's been starting. Annoying but not fatal. Craving an iPad upgrade, of course, but budget does not allow at the moment.

Sadly new version keeps crashing upon startup for me on iPad 1. One crash report said it wasn't starting within required time limit, or words to that effect.

App Store says "Coming Soon" on the Dead timbres.

And Background Audio is still enabled in Setup?

I think we need documentation on:
A. Which MIDI input commands Animoog recognizes, particularly standard controllers.
B. What the add-on MIDI output looks like, with guidance on how to use in other apps, VSTs, etc.

Oh, wow -- iFunbox is fantastic! Thanks again.

Hey, supersaw, thanks for the tip on iFunbox. It sounds great but I saw one commenter online saying it installed a bunch of junk advertising stuff on his PC. Did you see anything like that? TIA.

You need to both enable the MIDI input source and turn on background audio mode in AM. Then switch over to your control app and see if there's an option for selecting the destination of its MIDI out. One problem I've had is that your controller is producing its own sound, the two will fight for the ...

How do you have it connected? Is it sending on Channel 1? Do you see it as a MIDI input on the Animoog setup screen?
