Moog Grandmother

7, 9 UK pounds dollars will scroll below, but I feel like that doesn't feel like it's terribly expensive. I mean, I suppose you know there are some li...

So this is the part of the review, where I'm supposed to say something negative or some constructive criticism on it, so that we can keep this review ...

My current setup is digitakt, digitone, Moog Grandmother, Mother 32, subharmonicon, and some fx pedals all ran into a 4 input audio interface that is then ran into an MPC One. It's a great little setup and I'm absolutely not capable of using it to it's fullest but I'm struggling with getting out of 4 bar loops. It just hard to visualize song structure with all the different gear having their own sequencing and tracks and whatnot. I can't get past having separate sequences as parts to a song.

I have to amend my review to say the company, Alto Music, came through and gave me full refund. That is good customer service. I really did want this beginner's synth to work for me, but I don't have the rig to make it effective ... The construction super easy. I see people rockin with this on Youtu...

Just bought a Moog Grandmother, and am LOVING it. It's still a bit intimidating, especially after having used a minilogue with preset recall (arguably far easier than a semi-modular), but I'm looking forward to studio time toying around with it!

Be aware that any review prior to 2020 is not for the Moog Subharmonicon. Many reviews are for prior Moog product releases. The Subharmonicon is similar in size to the Mother 32 and DFAM semi modular synths and they are good as standalone monophonic synths (each with special characteristics and char...

I recently got the Moog grandmother and I really have been enjoying it. I feel like it’s a dangerous gateway to modular. I haven’t wrapped my head around the DFAM but they could be a good pair.

It is a great synth don't get me wrong, but i noticed the volume tone of the synth goes low to high everytime i hit a key. not sure if it is a setting or if i got a defective one. sure hope not, after spending a 1000 bucks on it :/

The only reason I got rid of it was because my journey into modular and procurement of a Moog Grandmother *(and I generally don't own more than one synth by any given manufacturer)*. What makes the Minitaur great is that it is compact, yet almost knob-per-function and very intuitive to edit. It also has fantastic MIDI implementation and a great editor which unlocks a number of very useful under-the-hood features of the synth. The only other synth I kind of think competes with it in the price-range, in terms of flexibility and overall sound is the Pioneer Toraiz AS-1, which is a single Prophet-6 voice also with a fantastic editor, but also a sequencer and FX built in.

There are lots of reviews that explain how to use this (check out looploop on YouTube) so I’ll focus on things that I think help you make a decision if this is right for you, your level of experience and how it fits into your current set up. I will say this is an excellent synth for beginners. Mainl...
