Moog (pronounced “mohg”) is a legendary American synthesizer company founded by Dr. Robert Moog in 1953. Moog is widely credited with creating the first commercial synthesizer, the Moog Modular, and later popularizing the synthesizer with the iconic Minimoog Model D in the early 1970s. The Minimoog revolutionized music production by making synthesizers portable, user-friendly, and musically expressive, laying the foundation for electronic music and influencing genres ranging from rock and pop to jazz and experimental music. The unmistakable warm and fat sound of Moog’s analogue circuits became synonymous with iconic tracks and artists like Kraftwerk, Stevie Wonder, Pink Floyd, and many others.

Moog continues to innovate and produce instruments that honour its rich heritage while embracing modern technology. Recent offerings include the Moog One, a polyphonic synthesizer that offers a vast sonic palette, and the Subsequent 37 and Subharmonicon, which expand on classic Moog monophonic designs with new features and sequencer options. The company has also continued to produce reissues of its classic models like the Minimoog Model D and Modular Systems, allowing a new generation of musicians to experience the original Moog sound. Known for their build quality, unique sound character, and commitment to analogue synthesis, Moog synthesizers remain highly revered in the music community and are celebrated for their timeless influence on modern music.

Analogue

An analogue synthesiser is a type of electronic instrument that generates sound through analogue circuitry, using voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs), filters, and amplifiers to create and manipulate audio signals. Unlike digital synthesizers, which use binary code and samples to produce sounds, analogue synths rely on continuous electrical signals, resulting in a warm and rich tonal quality often associated with classic music production. The sound generation process typically involves shaping waveforms, such as sawtooth, square, or sine waves, which can be further modified using various modulation techniques, allowing musicians to create a diverse range of sounds and textures.

Analogue synthesizers often feature hands-on controls, such as knobs, sliders, and switches, providing a tactile and intuitive interface for sound design. This direct interaction allows musicians to manipulate parameters in real-time, fostering creativity and experimentation during live performances or studio sessions. Although they may require more effort to program compared to their digital counterparts, analogue synthesizers are cherished for their unique character, unpredictability, and the organic nature of their sound, making them a favourite among electronic musicians, composers, and sound designers seeking to capture the essence of classic synthesis in their work.

Modular

This synthesiser embraces the modular synthesis philosophy, allowing for endless sonic possibilities through a system of interchangeable modules. With its patchable design, you can create customised signal paths and experiment with sound generation, modulation, and processing. Ideal for sound designers and electronic musicians, modular synthesers encourage creativity and exploration, enabling you to build a unique setup tailored to your artistic vision.

This product is brand new, unused, and in its original packaging. It has never been opened or used, ensuring you receive it in pristine, factory-sealed condition, just as originally manufactured.

It is ideal for those who want the assurance of a fresh start with their gear.

Semi

Synthesizer

A synthesizer, often abbreviated as synth, is an electronic musical instrument that generates and manipulates sound electronically. Synthesizers create sound through various methods, including subtractive synthesis, additive synthesis, frequency modulation synthesis, and wavetable synthesis, among others. They typically feature oscillators to produce raw waveforms, filters to sculpt the timbre, envelopes to shape the sound’s amplitude, and modulation sources to add movement and complexity.

Synthesizers offer a vast range of sounds, from classic analog tones to futuristic digital textures, and are used in a wide array of musical genres, from electronic and pop to rock and film scoring. With their versatility and expressive capabilities, synthesizers are essential tools for musicians, producers, and sound designers seeking to explore and create innovative sonic landscapes.
