It's real because it got shown at NAMM and because it is part of a Moog tribute. But the product name? This is what I warmly imagine:

 

Eric Persing: Alright guys, this thing that I've just built is the keyboardist's equivalent of ordering a loaded Banana Split from Cold Stone Creamery. I think it is the ultimate amalgamation of timeless analog nostalgia and cutting-edge Apple geekery. Usually we give our products evocative names like "Omnisphere" or "Trillian" but for some reason I want to go back to my Roland roots and come up with a weird sequence of letters and numbers. What should we call this thing?

 

Engineer Number 1: uhhh, what about O M G? huhuh. huhuh. [beavis and butthead laugh]

 

Engineer Number 2: haha, no no, what about O M G - 1 !??

 

Eric Persing: Oh my, look at the time, its 5pm and I gotta go pick up the kids. Ok, OMG-1 it is.

 

Engineer Number 1: totes awesome.

 

Engineer Number 2: totes. When we come out with the incremental upgrade, we should call it the OMFG. Huhuhuhh.

 

Engineer Number 1: huhhuh huhuhahuha.
