thanks Paul!
Sounds really impressive but it is a bit too expensive thou
BTW, there’s a synth in there! I cranked the volume a little and it has really big cojones. We’re naturally covered up in Moogs from 12 angles, but this has the voice right. Polyphony, too. I’ve had hardware & software versions, so I can feel the feels. Synapse is big on effects, but you’re never quite hearing the full Moog glory until you dial a few of them in.
If you have a big Moog jones going and you’re starting from scratch, get (general example) Cherry Audio’s Memorymode, the Legend HZ and a Mini of your choice. You’re unlikely to need more. If you want to tackle a modular, that’s your business, heh. Different discussion.
This is a fantastic synth. Very fat and rich. 6 oscillators. Love it!
