Moog One Review after several months
.....I just cannot imagine why anyone would not think this was the greatest synth ever...I have been working with synths I saw the MiniMoog back in 72. Then I was there when the original Prophet 5 was introduced at NAMM....I was there. I actually brought the first P5 into Nashville back in 77 or 78..(I forget)...The M1 is just incredible and I already have a great many presets of my own design...There are always haters...but I am having a blast with the Moog One.........
Re: Moog One Review after several months
Thanks for the review!
Did we ever learn why they called it "One"?
Is it a tongue-in-cheek joke on the fact that it's a poly synth?
Or maybe they ran out of elderly woman titles? I think "The Moog Elderly Woman" sounds catchier, myself.

Although they can be dangerous!

Re: Moog One Review after several months
Maybe the ONE refers to the original MOTHER? As in Gaia, Prajñā-Pāramitā, etc. (couldn't help it with the diacriticals)
@Ronfairchild, I really appreciated your review. I think some people expect a piece of gear to bend to their desire and will - and I get it. It's a utilitarian view. But I prefer to interact with an instrument, learn them, coax sounds out of them. Maybe it's a different approach? A balance between expectation and acceptance. Cheap, mass-produced stuff, you get what you pay for. Moog? It's a different level.

I hear from support that the next production run is delayed until 2023. Just going to have to wait!

Re: Moog One Review after several months
Man, I am sorry.....I guess I either didn't say enough...or? either way I love the synth..I will back off.....I could go on for a long time but brevity dictated at the time......I didn't mean to do anything unwanted..........I will continue to record new music every month with the Moog One.......Again, my sincerest apologies......

Polonius:
My liege, and madam, to expostulate
What majesty should be, what duty is,
What day is day, night night, and time is time,
Were nothing but to waste night, day, and time;
Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit,
And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes,
I will be brief. Your noble son is mad. . . .
(Emphasis is mine)
To add my own review, the Moog One is AMAZING!

Citing Shakespeare... hard for a non-native speaker like me! I prefer the MoogOne, as always. Its language is far more universal.dingebre wrote: ↑Sun Sep 04, 2022 4:50 pmIn support for brief reviews, I quote Shakespeare from Hamlet:Matthias Adloff wrote: ↑Sat Aug 27, 2022 9:02 amYes, true.
