This was hilarious, also I probably wouldn't have bought one if I saw this first.

Just bought one. ETA Monday. Just watched the video and still no regrets. Although I’d prefer that these issues were resolved, based on my experience with InMusic/Moog support - which was stellar - I’m confident that these matters will be addressed.

The Muse is apparently a big hit, so it’s reasonable to assume that Moog will cultivate that revenue stream.

Just wondering but isn't the beauty of analog that it's out of tune? Mine might be out of tune but I often like that sound but I guess he means the whole voice is out of tune. In my video here when I switched voices some did appear to be out of tune with other voices. I have not performed the larger calibration yet.

Yes, but there's beading from a few cents out of time, and then there's out of tune where it sounds bad. When people say out of tune they mean up to a semitone out of tune

I wish these expensive pieces of gear had a simple $5 tuner built into them or do they? Like the true pitch that shows you how much it's off.

I just plug it into my DAW and tune it there.

If I wanted to tune my instrument all the time I would still be playing my guitar.

At the time of purchase of the Muse I was tuning my guitar less because it's roasted maple with a carbon reinforced trussrod. Tuning is stable now though. Only a few cents off when turned on cold and spot on after it's warmed up. Like the competitors but it was BAD when I first got it.
