Moog Muse 8-Voice Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer

Moog Muse is an eight-voice analog bi-timbral polyphonic synthesizer and the culmination of over five years of dreams, design and passion. Muse is an intuitive and powerful instrument built on the rich history of Moog that simultaneously gazes boldly into the future. This studio or performance centerpiece is driven by eight analog voices, each with two VCOs, a modulation VCO, dual VCFs and a stereo VCA – all with that recognizable, kinetic analog quality. Dual analog VCOs per-voice derived from Minimoog Voyager circuits with wave mixing and programmable analog FM Per-voice analog modulation oscillator with pre-routed destinations that can be used at audio rate as a third audio oscillator CP3-style saturating mixer per-voice with ring modulation, noise and either clean or saturated mix Dual discrete transistor ladder VCFs per voice with switchable routing configurations Stereo discrete transistor VCA per voice based on the Moog 902 module Dual ADSR envelopes per voice with variable curves, looping and velocity response – assignable to any destination Diffusion delay: a hypnotic stereo processor inspired by golden era vintage digital rack delays with diffusing multi-tap behavior Two LFOs with unique waveshapes, dedicated pitch LFO and 16 per-voice triggered random generators – all routed via 16 modulation slots per timbre, per patch Bi-timbrality and voice control: two independent timbres per-patch can be stacked or split across the keyboard Advanced arpeggiator with rhythmic programming, expanded patterns and generative behavior Chord memory with programmable per-key chord shapes 64-step sequencer with sequence chaining, parameter recording, probabilistic editing and much more 16 banks of 16 patches for a total of 256 patch storage locations – ships with 224 presets, leaving two banks reserved for user patches 16 banks of 16 sequences for a total of 256 – ships with 224, one designed for each of the factory patches with two sequence banks reserved for user sequences 61-key semi-weighted full size Fatar keybed with velocity and channel aftertouch Analog CV and clock inputs/outputs, sustain pedal input, expression pedal input   Best of the best Muse represents a melting pot of classic Moog designs paired with forward-thinking controls in one complete instrument. Moog selected the very best of its vintage circuits to create Muse, inspired by Moog Voyager oscillators, the Moogerfooger MF-102 Ring Modulator and the Moog Modular CP3 mixer, 902 VCA and 904a filter modules. Patch memory With 16 banks of 16 patches you'll encounter beautiful pads, organic FM plucks, attention-grabbing leads, subterranean basses and stage-oriented key splits, as well as two banks reserved for your own sonic discoveries. Explore and express yourself endlessly with cutting-edge digital controls for powerful modulation capabilities, dedicated macro control, customizable envelopes and multiple flexible LFOs. Shaping sound with Muse is a pleasure – the synthesizer and synthesist grow as one as the adventure continues for years to come. Stage to studio Muse was created for and by modern musicians, producers and sound designers who appreciate performance-oriented controls, intuitive knob per function layout, and 'more' menus for every module. Built for stage and studio with a 61-key Fatar keyboard with velocity and channel aftertouch, a left-hand controller with pitch and mod wheels and a programmable MACRO knob makes the experience of interacting with Muse inspiring, intriguing and innately playable. Mesmerizing A hypnotic stereo diffusion delay processor was inspired by golden era vintage digital rack delays with a unique and powerful set of diffusion, multi-tap and filter behaviors. Craft complex echoes and diffused tonal smears that add dimension and depth to any patch. Arpeggiator and sequencer In addition to Muse's creative immediacy, the powerful arpeggiator invites you to generate melodic ideas with compelling patterns and rhythms. With Muse's deep sequencer you'll unravel unique patterns and gestures; further develop these discoveries with parameter recording, generative/probabilistic functions and detailed editing of every note in the sequence. Moog Muse is a limitless canvas of musical exploration.
