Description

The Moog Messenger Monophonic Analog Synthesizer is New Delivered to all areas of the UK using our roadie delivery service.

The Moog Messenger is a next-generation monophonic analogue synthesizer that fuses iconic Moog sonic heritage with forward-thinking design for musicians, producers, and sound designers. Designed to inspire creativity both in the studio and on stage, Messenger delivers massive sound in a compact form, loaded with a broad range of modulation, sequencing, and performance features. From thunderous basses and searing leads to intricate textures, it serves as a powerful tool for crafting timeless analogue tones with contemporary versatility.

Built around two continuously variable oscillators and an innovative wavefolding engine, Messenger also introduces a uniquely reimagined Moog ladder filter offering multimode functionality with bass compensation. It features 32 semi-weighted keys with velocity and aftertouch, dual looping ADSR envelopes, and onboard sequencing and arpeggiation tools that bring advanced compositional control to your fingertips. With extensive modulation routing, performance controls, preset memory, and seamless connectivity, Messenger is a bold evolution of the classic Moog monosynth format.

Key Features:

• Next-generation Moog sound engine:
  Two flexible VCOs with wavefolding, FM, and a unique sub oscillator deliver powerful, shapeable sound with rich harmonic content.
• Legendary ladder filter, reimagined:
  The classic Moog ladder filter is enhanced with multiple modes, bass compensation, and pole mixing for unparalleled tonal control.
• Expressive keys and sequencing tools:
  A 32-key semi-weighted keybed with velocity and aftertouch meets 64-step sequencing, modulation recording, and advanced arpeggiation.

A Creative Synthesizer Built for Expression:

The Messenger’s 32 full-size semi-weighted keys offer a responsive and expressive playing experience, ideal for dynamic performance and detailed sound shaping. With velocity sensitivity and aftertouch, it responds naturally to your playing style, while the robust metal chassis ensures durability on stage. The front panel’s knob-per-function design makes real-time control intuitive and immediate, empowering you to sculpt your sound with confidence. Whether performing live or recording in the studio, Messenger is designed to keep you in the creative flow.

Flexible Sound Design and Modulation Power:

Messenger’s dual loopable ADSR envelopes and dual LFOs open up a deep world of modulation possibilities. LFO 1 offers variable wave shapes, sync, and routing for everything from pulse-width modulation to wavefolding and filter FM, while LFO 2 connects directly to the modulation wheel for hands-on expressive control. With oscillator sync, cross modulation, and external audio routing to the filter, Messenger provides a rich playground for sound designers and analogue enthusiasts to explore vast sonic territory.

Modern Connectivity with Analogue Roots:

Seamlessly integrate Messenger into your setup via classic 5-pin DIN MIDI or MIDI over USB C. Six CV and gate patch points provide flexible routing with modular and Eurorack gear, while external audio input and feedback paths invite creative signal processing. Sustain and expression pedal inputs offer further real-time control. Whether working within a DAW-based environment or a standalone hardware setup, Messenger offers the connectivity and flexibility required for modern music production.
