I tried the moog one just now! Its amazing!! Really!! One thing i noticed about it is the attention to detail. Almost everything can be synced, lfos, delays, envelope repeats. Its easy to navigate, although different from how sequential synths navigate. The layers, and how you can edit 3 or 2 layers at once in any combination. Assigning key zones wherever you want. Jeez, this beast is....a beast. And also the sound obviously! Routing individual oscs to any filter as you please. Dedicated noise module with envelope! WHAT?!
The store representative who showed off the instrument and let us play told me that they are in close contact with moog. I live in norway, and the guy told me that moog are waiting with larger shipments overseas because there might be more hardware changes to be made, and they want to reduce potential costs on that by waiting a until like february. Thats why the moog one is shipping in the us first.
The circuits in the moog one are aparently remotely controlled by the digital engine in the middle.(dont know how this works, but thats what he said). He alsosaid that because of this, its easier to make software adjustments that affect the circuits, so i think we can expect allot of updates for this instrument.
The moog one also has an ethernet connection. The guy i spoke to said that this could be used for support to diagnose potential malfunctions in the synth. So instead of sending the instrument for repair, this could happen via the internett. If the malfunction is not mechanical obviously! I think this sounds GENIOUS!
My hat is off moog! My hat is off <3
