The flagship ain't paying the bills. I actually think (based on some hearsay) that the development and production cost of the Moog One is still not covered by the turnovers from sold units. So, making apps and merch is what Moog needs to do, unfortunately.Iaamusic wrote: Sun Sep 26, 2021 3:14 pm Well in fairness they have launched a new clothing range and updated the iOS 15 app whilst launching a SR synth case for the matriarch....so it’s not all doom and gloom
I’m sure a firmware upgrade is coming but agree the lack of Comms is depressing given Amos et al spending all that time initially guiding us through the early developments as well as responding to feature requests. Not sure why they’ve changed their approach on what is their flagship product after all.
At this price point, what were they thinking? That the Moog One would be flying off the shelf like some low-cost, overseas-made Behringer product? I'm afraid that this looks like another Alesis Adromeda, or Moog Memorymoog, or ARP Avatar story; all audacious products that failed to sell well and brought the company down with them. I hope not, but it doesn't look good...Matthias Adloff wrote: Mon Sep 27, 2021 4:02 am The flagship ain't paying the bills.

... and what, if this would be the answer:guillemostaza wrote: Thu Sep 30, 2021 3:59 am I visit Moog website everyday since I have the Moog One. This is so frustrating. We need to begin a #updatefockinmoogone movement or something in that. These things work.
For me, it is. I can't use with cubase because notes hang on randomly. It is no fun when you're exporting a song and notice a note hang on and I need to cancel/reedo the exporting process till this don't happen again. It makes no sense, so at the moment the One is only usable in my case, to play but not to work with. Again, it makes no sense for the price tag. ( notes hang on only on arpeggiated or atleast the probability to happen is higher with that notes )It sounds like, the Moog One is absolutely unuseable with the latest firmware - I don´t agree. If you believe or not:
I don´t notice any bugs actually when I play the Moog One. The device runs in stable mode in my studio.
That´s only so for me, because I never had high expectations using the Moog One in a DAW. I use Logic and Reason without any problems and I am satisfied. But in respect, I have understanding for all users with higher expectations using the Moog One in a DAW than me. I think, this would be annoying too for me.Pencilcase wrote: Thu Sep 30, 2021 12:16 pmFor me, it is. I can't use with cubase because notes hang on randomly.

When this will be fixed then for me will be a nice situation but suddenly the updates stopped in that critical point. So having this synth for 2 years without any profitable use makes no sense... I love it, but hell...
