I now have both the Muse and the One.
The One has always been the synth I would keep if you could only have one. Three timbres which allow three different settings (arp, sequences, detached from keyboard). The settings go into the hundreds. I think the keyboard is one of the best of non MPE keyboards. I also love the XYZ pad.
So far the muse reminds me a lot of the Matriarch but with multiple voices.
Moog Muse VS Moog ONE

A year ago you said: "There are no VSTi's that claim to reproduce analog sounds that I would actually use. Why would I?"Matthias Adloff wrote: Sat Aug 24, 2024 5:38 am I'm often close to selling my Moog One 16 because of the Cherry Audio MemoryMode VSTi. If only the latter would offer an SVF and a real modulation matrix, I would pull the trigger. Soundwise, the VSTi is exactly on par with the hardware Moog One.
That being said, I do not see any sense in buying a MUSE. You can easily check out the VSTi for some time or buy it for 49USD (!!!), and then get your hands on a hardware MUSE. I highly doubt you would miss anything. If the same is true even for a Moog One owner (almost, see above), it must be even more true for anyopne interested in the MUSE.
What made you change your mind?

Re: Moog Muse VS Moog ONE
That makes me want to get one even more. I love the rawness of my Matriarch and have wished for a long time to have something with that sound in a real polyphonic instrument. (I see the Matriarch as a compact Moog Modular system, which is great in its own right but not a poly.)styphonthal wrote: Sun Sep 22, 2024 7:27 pm So far the muse reminds me a lot of the Matriarch but with multiple voices.

We're all tired about hardware/software debates, aren't we. For me personally, out of all comparisons I did, Cherry vs. Memory Moog was one of the very few where I couldn't tell and feel the difference when playing both over a master keyboard in blind test. Moog One is a different beast, I admit. But I was upset about the Moog policy on that flagship, and now I'm back with the new fantastic update!
