Minimoog Model D Synthesizer

Description

The Minimoog Model D App is a software transmutation of the world’s first portable synthesizer, the Minimoog Model D®. Anyone can jump in and play with over 160 included presets or lay fingers to the controls and begin exploring vast magical realms of creative potential for iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch and Mac. The Minimoog Model D App incorporates a number of inspiring sound creation tools and capabilities not present on its analog antecedent. New functions include the ability to play chords with up to four-note polyphony, an easy-to-use arpeggiator for rhythmic pattern creation, a real time looping recorder with unlimited overdubbing capacity, a tempo-synchronizable stereo ping pong delay module, and the Bender -- a wide-range stereo time modulation effect module. The Minimoog Model D App also supports AUv3 Audio Unit extensions, which allows multiple instances of this powerful instrument to be used simultaneously within compatible iOS apps supporting AUv3. A BRIEF HISTORY Introduced by Moog in 1970, the Minimoog Model D served as the archetype for all electronic keyboards that followed. It gave users the ability to design their own sounds, translating imagination into reality. The Minimoog’s portability, affordability and accessibility made it the go-to instrument for musicians looking to expand beyond the traditional sounds of the time. Bernie Worrell used the Minimoog Model D to establish Parliament Funkadelic’s futuristic funk sound. Kraftwerk employed the Minimoog Model D on the successful concept album Autobahn, sparking an entirely new genre. Gary Numan replaced his live band’s guitars with Minimoog Model Ds, creating the prototype for industrial music. The classic sound of the Minimoog Model D can be heard on Bob Marley’s Catch A Fire, Michael Jackson’s Thriller and Dr. Dre’s The Chronic; Detailed in the mini-doc series “A Brief History Of The Minimoog”.

• ★★★★★Unhappy with Moog

  Nice synth, dismal customer service

  I own this synth, as well as all the extension packs. I recently purchased a new iPad. When I tried to play the Model D app on it for the first time I discovered that the graphics were horribly distorted, making it impossible to play. After trouble shooting I reached out to Moog for help. They basically told me I was SOL, and that they were unable to do anything to help me. The communication was some of the most offensively inhuman AI garbage I’ve ever received. I am extremely disappointed in the way Moog handled this situation. Shame on you.

  On iPad m4 the UI is unusable. Please fix

• ★★★★★paulgx3

  Layout is messed up on new M4 iPad AIR

  It looks fine on my new MacBook, but on my iPad the layout of the keys is jumbled, and the controls have no text. It’s a mess, and others are having the same issue. Please fix this.

  Sample into cubase or out to a phone. Love it

• ★★★★★Elemboh

  Can’t swipe to quit

  Great sound. This and the Model 15 cannot swipe out of the app — the user gets locked in and has to hack a way out through settings.

• ★★★★★PeterInDC

  Wonderful Sound

  This is one of the best sounding synth emulators with great presets. The interface is not playing well with the latest iOS interface though

• ★★★★★Buffalo People

• ★★★★★Shawneemike

  Classic sounds

  Not sure how they make it sound so good but you want this one. Fun, inspiring, & a MOOG!! Sound so phat and juicy you want these sound waves. Check out their pedal apps too. Wonderful price for what they offer. So many potential sounds.
