Not sure what to make of this. Anyone have any speculation?

oops! :oops:

The trademark is registered "Minimoog", and it was filed in March of this year. Not a lot of information, but usually this means a new product is headed our way.

Hi guys,

I've rarely posted here, but had to chip in.

The application on the link could be for an iOS app called Minimoog, now that the Arturia V is no longer branded as Moog approved.

Just my 2 cents.

Moog has owned the "minimoog" trademark for at least ten years when Bob won it back from the "don martin moog" bankruptcy. They've been making the "Minimoog Voyager" since 2004. Not much to see here.

Bring it on!
I will have that app the day it is released.

...And they use the same description for all of their trademarks so as not to reveal what their intentions are, usually it describes the Murf.


I notice though that they hold the trademark for ARP, lol! Maybe they are releasing a new odyssey!

I think it makes sense that Moog would release a virtual Minimoog, but I would love to see a Minitaur with a keyboard attached. I find it interesting that they hold the trademark to the ARP name... wonder if they'll ever do anything with it?

They must had gotten those from the Don Martin bankruptcy. Always knew Don had the trademarks but never knew what happened to them.

Screw the Odyssey - release the Chroma!

+1M on the Chroma.

Oh hell, I'll settle for an updated Odyssey.
