I was very happy as well! :D

Of course, there is always the fear that it might be an intermittent problem, but I recorded with it last night and it behaved as expected! I love this thing!

Re: Please could someone from Moog give me a correct contact email add to de register a moog instrument

I haven't de-registered an instrument, but when I needed tech support, I went to the webpage, and in the upper right corner next to the cart there's a square "talk bubble" (?) - hover over it, it says "talk to us" - click and a message window to support opens in the bottom right....

Sirin Decay & Sustain problem solved

I noted a problem I was having here in another thread . I was trying to turn on drone mode but unable to, then discovered that my Decay & Sustain knobs no longer had any effect. Wanted to report that I contacted Moog and they helped me a lot. It took a few days between communications but they al...

Re: Sirin is constantly detuned

Hello there! I have used my Sirin almost on a daily basis for more than a year now, but lately a very annoying phenomenon started to happen: both oscillators are constantly out of tune, in a moving way... I use it to practice my organ; so I play with my feet on a MIDI pedalboard, the MIDI goes to a...

Re: Can't get a reply from Moog

Hi hieronymous, Thanks for your reply. I got no email reply to say my request had been received. Odd. Diode. In that case I would email again, try using the messenger thing that pops up on the bottom right on the webpage, keep trying until you get some kind of response - even just automated! Withou...

Re: Can't get a reply from Moog

I put in a service request and received instant receipt confirmation, and usually hear back from someone within a week if not less. Did you get the initial confirmation? This is the message I got (minus the number): Thank you for contacting Moog Music. Your request (#####) has been received and is b...

Re: Moogerfooger Memorial Thread

Usually when Moog reaches the end of production they have a link that says "More may be available at the following dealers" or something to that effect, so this seems like it's a little too late to the game. That actually is posted on the moogerfooger pages - I checked a few of them - Swe...

Re: Moogerfooger Memorial Thread

I thought they stopped making moogerfoogers years ago? Which models are they shipping? I thought so too, but in the article announcing the end of the moogerfooger line , it says "We will continue building a limited quantity of units here at the Moog Factory while our remaining inventory of par...

Re: Share your synthesizer music!

Improvisation with Alembic Bass + Moog Phaser (Big Briar MF-103) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vczyJReGAgM Got kind of scared when the moogerfooger didn't appear to be working - signal was passing but no change to the sound - once I flicked the rocker switches it came on! Whew! Had the sweep set f...

Re: Moogerfooger Memorial Thread

Great post! Sounds like a cool collection. I'm at the other end of the spectrum - purchased my first ones (MF-101 & 103) in 2002 when they were put out by Big Briar - later acquired CP-251 & original MF-104 (also both Big Briar). I've gotten other Moog stuff since then but the MF-104 was my ...

Re: Issues with Minitaur panel settings - overwritten?

But then I noticed that my Decay & Sustain knobs no longer have any effect! 2 knobs not doing anything at all while others are fine sounds scary (looks more like an hardware problem than a firmware bug). If it was only drone mode while the sustain knob seemed to work normally, my guess would ha...

Re: Issues with Minitaur panel settings - overwritten?

Unfortunately, I think something similar is happening to my Sirin. I first noticed that I can't turn on drone mode with the shortcut. (I also can't find it in the editor) But then I noticed that my Decay & Sustain knobs no longer have any effect! Maybe I'm stuck IN drone mode? If so, I can't tur...

Re: Share your synthesizer music!

Cool! And yes, the darker, the better... 8) At first I thought you meant the sound of the Sirin filter sounded darker! :lol: I put together this track as a test of the ZVEX Mastotron fuzz - most fuzzes don't work with active electronics (guitar/bass) or line level signals, but the Mastotron seems t...

Re: OK to use both USB & MIDI with Sirin?

Should not cause any problems. I can imagine possible conflicts trying to run 2 sequencers in parallel (using a computer thru USB and an external controller thru the standard MIDI port) or sending program changes messages from both at the same time but nothing worst than having a program change bei...

Big Briar?

My entry into the world of analog synthesis and Moog was through a couple of moogerfoogers (MF-101 & MF-103) purchased in 2002, branded as "Big Briar" and with Bob Moog's signature on the faceplate. It was later that same year that he got the rights to the Moog name back, but I still m...
