ProfD Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I'm wondering who will be bringing a Moog One to the next MAKCFH. H8ll, if someone locally cops a Moog One, that will be reason enough to have a gathering. Quote PD "The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return."--E.

Markyboard Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Since this thread appears to be stalled I've been thinking about the name One and how it translates in different languages. Here's a list of One in several (cough) languages. I've paired up several of these with Moog and what it sounds like to me. Feel free to join me in adding some really valuable content to this thread while we await the user manual and first hand reports from forum members. Afrikaans: Moog-Een: suggested baby name by expecting father who pre-ordered One. Azerbaijani: Moog Bir - sounds like More Beer, ain't nobody going to tell you its overpriced. Bosnian: Moog-Jedan: Moog religious fanatics Catalan/Welsh: Moog'Un - Bob Marley's sequel to Jam'n Danish: MoogEn: as in Guten Moogen - the morning after taking delivery German: MoogEin - Albert Einstien's synth playing half brother English: Moog One - a derivative of wtf Take it away folks: Spanish: uno Estonian: üks Basque: bat Persian: یکی Finnish: yksi French: un Irish: ceann amháin Galician: un Gujarati: એક Hausa: daya Hindi: एक Hmong: one Croatian: jedan Haitian Creole: youn Hungarian: egy Armenian: մեկը Indonesian: satu Igbo: otu Icelandic: einn Italian: uno Hebrew: אחד Japanese: 1 Javanese: siji Georgian: ერთი Kazakh: бір Khmer: មួយ Kannada: ಒಂದು Korean: 하나 Latin: one Lao: ຫນຶ່ງ Lithuanian: vienas Latvian: vienu Malagasy: iray Maori: kotahi Macedonian: еден Malayalam: ഒന്ന് Mongolian: нэг Marathi: एक Malay: satu Maltese: waħda Myanmar (Burmese): တစ် Nepali: एक Dutch: een Norwegian: en Chichewa: imodzi Punjabi: ਇੱਕ Polish: jeden Portuguese: 1 Romanian: unu Russian: один Sinhala: එක Slovak: jeden Slovenian: eno Somali: hal Albanian: një Serbian: један Sesotho: ngoe Sundanese: hiji Swedish: ett Swahili: moja Tamil: ஒரு Telugu: ఒకటి Tajik: як Thai: หนึ่ง Filipino: isa Turkish: bir Ukrainian: один Urdu: ایک Uzbek: biri Vietnamese: một Yiddish: איינער Yoruba: ọkan Chinese: 一 Chinese (Simplified): 一 Chinese (Traditional): 一 Zulu: eyodwa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfD Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Take it away folks Malagasy: Moog Iray-Jamaican feeling of joy. Slovenian: Moog Eno-Brian's cousin. Somali: Moog Hal-nothing shallow about these phat presets. Swedish: Moog Ett-the cow cousin of a wingette. Swahili: Moog Moja-Got her working now. Zulu: Moog Eyodwa-Moogie Yoda. May the force be with the player. Maybe the Moog One will be game-changer globally. Quote PD "The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return."--E.

David Emm Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 When you insure your Moog One- and you must- will it be for the original retail price or the hunted-to-death prices five years from now on ebay and Reverb.com? Then there's the synth doctor fund, just like you need a vet fund if you're a dog/cat owner. Then there's the oak axe handle you need so you can shake it threatingly at anyone who gets too close to the Moog. Accessories!! Quote "I like that rapper with the bullet in his nose!"

MikeT156 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 The Moog One doesn't just sound BIG, it sounds HUGE. The ultra FAT sounds are a big advantage, especially when playing traditionally "weaker" sounds that sound LAME on a VA or not so great on even on improved digital/analog Hybrids that are available. The price is higher than other modern synths, but think about this: In 1981 I bought a Prophet 5 Rev 3.2 that listed for $3999.00. In today's dollars, that would be $15,000. Yep. I did get a discount, but I was paying that synth off through a BANK LOAN. The good new is, I still have it, it still works fine, and I never regretted buying it. Cheers! Mike T.

Mike, according to Wikipedia the list price actually went up to $4595 for the Rev 3's! It was $3995 for the earlier models. And if I recall correctly, bank loans during those years had quite high interest rates as well.....that must have been a steep payment.

You could be right, I only remember the 4k retail price back then. I had a good relationship with Dickstein Distributing in Scranton PA back in those days, and I got a great deal. Cash worked just as well back then as it does now. Yep, it was a steep payment. Interest rates were off the charts. But I sucked it up. I don't remember the monthly payment I made, but I was playing decent paying gigs and used what I made to buy GEAR! I had an OBX that I had bought previous to the Prophet, so I was $ynth poor. No house payment, life is about choices! Mike T.

No, I have not put my hands on the Moog One. Youtube videos over the Internet will only sound a good as my computer speakers that is not a real good audition by any measure. However I have compared the Moog to the latest Sequential demos, and the Moog sounded much bigger. So is the price tag. That said, I am very impressed with the Prophet 6. Its like my P5 with modern features. It sounds very similar to mine, but I have not heard any dramatic filter sweeps like my old reliable synth can do. Its a small part of the sound, but an important one. Still love the Sequential sound, and I can't knock the price tag of their keyboards.

Markyboard Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 It will never need an upgrade with those cool waveform scopes. Yeah, they do seem a little gimmicky at first but as long as they reflect the post modulation parameters they could prove interesting and even useful at times. Boo ! Maybe only 6 people here care but these are not scopes as stated in today's live stream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mate stubb Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 As I feared, I missed out on the first batch. My Sweetwater rep says I'm in the second batch due in Nov 5. He also confirmed they are still updating the OS and adding presets, and that the ones they had already in stock are being updated before they go out.

ksoper Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 From version 1.0 and onward, no software problems in my Sig's 16 year life. Updating the OS by sysex hasn't ever been fun. (Is it B, A, C or B, C, A?) In whatever order the current directions have you load the files, the Sig asks for a different order. That'll make you squirm a little.

Phil Aiken Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 ****Crossposting from another message board**** Have unboxed, and set up, messed about for about an hour, and no recordings for now. The major points: 1. It sounds amazing and is so malleable that when it does not, you can make it so. 2. Annoying when you switch presents with delay/verb still hanging on. This needs a bug fix, but for the time being, don't do that. 3. Fan noise after the initial boot up is not bad for me. Quieter than a computer, a DeepMind, or background noise of a guitar amp turned up loud. 4. Gain staging is supremely important, in a good way. 5. Took one of my go to OB6 patches, just because it happened to be sitting within arms length, and tried, with limited success, to match it. Suddenly got much closer when I played with the envelope attach curve. This is potent. Ultimately found a Moog preset with OB in the name that was in the same ballpark, tweaked that, and got a little closer. Still, that particular OB6 patch makes my big toe shoot up in my boot, to quote Little Richard. 6. The oscillators definitely do not, without assistance, jump out of the speakers crackling with life like those of a Model D or some vintage VCO's. They are however, to put it in a good light, classy and rich. Also versatile, and with the waveform shaping and mixing, capable of a huge variety of tones. They are more lively with no modulation tricks than say, the digital oscillators of a Pro-2, or the DCO's of a Juno ( or DM12 as a contemporary example). One of my next moves will be to use a boost pedal with a little bit of "hair" on it on an insert with the filter wide open, and bring it into the external input of another "synth" to drive the filter a bit more, and to see how Minimoogy it can get. I will also similarly experiment with using my Voyager oscillators with the slew rate mod triggered via midi into an external input mostly for my own edification as an A/B. Will do same with the OB6 or Prophet 6. In a short time, what I know it can do is to be an absolutely brilliant and deep polysynth. In my mind it is the polyphonic love child of a Pro-2 and a Voyager, but with both of their best features, and better looking and more successful than its parents. I did most of my little bit of tweaking sans effects, but I'd pop them on to mess with them, and they are wonderful. It can cover a lot of ground. A string sound with the ensemble effect sounds pretty great. A fat but clean bass - pretty great. Pillowy OB type sound - great. Still working on a screaming lead where one note will raise the hairs on your arms. Think I can get there. But where this will really shine is not covering for other instruments but exploring what is uniquely the Moog One, and that is by far the most exciting thing.
