MOOG ONE
Designed to exceed every expectation, Moog One is the rst polyphonic instrument from Moog in
decades. From the original napkin sketches to the day we boxed the rst unit for shipment from the
Moog Factory here in Asheville, North Carolina, the goal has remained to create an analog, polyphonic,
programmable, and multitimbral synthesizer that is without equal. Realizing the Moog One vision
has been a journey of collaboration and discovery; a sharing of ideas between the Moog Team and
countless artists, sound designers, and synthesizer enthusiasts from around the globe. In crafting
Moog One, it was paramount to keep the interface intuitive and tactile. The hope is that your sonic
explorations will transcend the separation of artist and instrument, allowing Moog One to be the
conduit for your own creative voice.
Moog One is an analog, polyphonic, programmable, and multitimbral synthesizer; each of these terms
carries its own signicance and its own legacy.
ANALOG
The heart of the Moog One sound is its analog signal path. Since the development of the rst Moog
Synthesizer in 1963, Moog analog circuits have been renowned for their rich harmonic qualities and for
the organic nature of their expression.
POLYPHONIC
Synthesizers changed forever with the advent of polyphony. As a polyphonic synthesizer, Moog
One can independently articulate numerous voices simultaneously; up to 8 or 16, depending on the
conguration of your instrument. This voice-count designation is stamped on the serial number label
on the underside of your Moog One.
PROGRAMMABLE
Moog One is a wonderland for sound designers and tweakers, with a Front Panel hosting over two
hundred knobs and buttons. The status of each knob and button – plus countless below-the-surface
parameter settings – are stored and saved in memory in near limitless numbers of Presets. Find your
favorites using the searchable Browser. These saved Presets can also be assigned to the Front Panel’s
Performance Set for instant recall.
MULTITIMBRAL
As a three-part multitimbral instrument, Moog One is capable of playing up to three distinct Synths
simultaneously – split, layered, or zoned across the keyboard – all from within a single Preset. With
each Synth able to access its own sound parameters, note range, arpeggiator, and sequencer, Moog
One can create its own ensemble performances or deliver a richly layered arsenal of sound.
