@@MelloCello7 Maybe i am spoiled, i have or had have a lot of vintage synths with lots of character. This Moog has a lot of nuances and a wide spectrum, but is completely lifeless in pure tone.
I feel like I could learn Japanese just from watching Ujiie-San with no sub titles. Great presenter! He gets the point across the language gap regardless.
I love this channel and respect his level of musicianship a lot, this is probably the only demo of a hardware synth he’s done that I don’t like. Maybe the Moog One is an acquired taste that takes time 🙄
The playing and demo are excellent. With the Moog One, it seems that the company is trying to recreate in an analogue synth what a good digital workstation does; thus, I'm left wondering, 'what is the purpose, other than a price point 2-3X higher?'
A little bit criticism... It sounds fat analog, but at the same time all these patches sound more of the same and somewhat dull. (just my opinion). And except the big fat sound, what actually can do this synth that a good software synth can't?
@@oblitafier It’s not that I don’t appreciate it. I had lots of analog synths myself and it’s awesome. But I switched to soft synths and I don’t really miss the analog equipment since I can do the same things with my soft synths - more or less - in a much easier way. But you have a point. If someone buys a Moog One they do it for a reason.
Pascal Illustration I feel the same, I’ve had many analog synths over the span of 40 years .. and still do .. but I’m just burnt on the sounds after all these years, I enjoy soft synths like Omnisphere, and Kontakt libraries so much more these days. Something doesn’t rub me right with a One the same as the Memory Moog didn’t back in the day .. I ended up with the Jupiter 8 as my flagship when the decision between it, the OBXa, and Memory Moog were my choices.
@@chrisstrobel3439 I think many people don't always appreaciate the potential of a good softh synth because they are not aware of all the possibilities it offers. They try the patches and judge on that, but once you experiment for a while you can discover great things a classic hardware synth can't do. And the reason people don't experiment as much with softsynths as they do with hardware is because softsynths don't have physical knobs and the same interaction. It's true that analog sounds really good, but there has become a big focus on it. Especially recreating the classics. Look at Behringer who makes clones of the TR-808 909 minimoog, and so on... There are even 2 new ARP 2600's (Behringer and Korg). This is all great news, but I think Brands should put in more work in really new things, innovations or just making great new synths instead rebuilding the past. Jean Michel Jarre talked about this too somewhere in his interviews. Experimenting with new things, not repeating the same. Artists from the 70's, 80's used these old classics because that was the choise back then. There was a technology limitation. Now Logic Pro has everything that you need. If a softsynth don't really sound 'analog' isn't that a little bit a luxury-problem? In the past I also thought I needed hardware synths, but I sold them and I don't miss them. One DAW and a keyboard controller is enough for me.
What to do with felter state Pass through a variable freeter, either through a large filter or both I'll pass And here too, as there is a triangle mark here Oscillator big snobograph is high!
i don't know. I think The Moog One suffers from 'too many bells and whistles' so it's a master of none. I prefer the sound of the classic analog poly synth's more. The Moog One struggles to have what they call character.
I think all the bells and whistles would be fine in the right hands. MusicTrackJP is my favorite demo guy. But the Moog One needs a guy like 80’s icon synth pioneer Jan Hammer to make it sound the way it should.
It does not sound anything like a DX FM, as that sonic engine produces its own unique sound. The synth here if anything reminded me slightly more of the Casio CZ range and its PD synth engine. No the Móóg has its own sound and character compared to the other two mentioned IMHO.
This sounds great. But I can make OmniSphere or a Montage sound pretty much like this. Can a Moog One sound like a Montage or OmniSphere? No way. For 800,000 Yen ($7000 USD), that's not good enough for me.
man I really dont get the hype around moog gear. maybe its just not my generation of sound. I usually find the Nord, Roland and especially Korg sound much warmer. I see people praising moog for warm sounds but to me they sound rather cold compared to lets say a Kingkorg or Nord Lead A1.
@@johnnyv673 none of this new stuff sounds remotely as good as the classic real deal. my guess is that they do not have the brainpower inside Moog Inc 2019 to design anything to equal the original PolyMoog or MemoryMoog because this sure ain't it. They keep doing twinkle marketing like someone with a soldering iron is a rare and exotic event. I really hate their marketing and this M1 thing just makes me want to turn and run. They still make some good mono-synths in the $1k range, but Korg Yam Roland Moog Sequential/DSI Oberheim just can not seem to connect with the sound of their good stuff, not even close.
Thank You very much for the update. I know it is not so easy to realize such a real behavior. This is little irritating me to trigger for instance filters cut off freq for the whole cord or cluster with the single aftertouch key pressed deeper somewhere aside instead of deciding which keys I want to be affected by aftertouch . Just asked because it is very expensive instrument and that would be marvelous to have this feature implemented. Thank you again.
Yes, marvelous indeed. Especially at this "immediately affordable" $$$ price point. In my opinion, polyphonic aftertouch should be de-facto *standard fare* on _every_ keybed with aftertouch capability. Period. It is annoying beyond belief to be playing chords with simultaneous moving bass line & desire aftertouch applied just upon lower notes to bring up the filter or apply subtle (or dramatic!) modulation, only to have every single note within immediate proximity effected! At similar velocity! Sucks... I love the poly aftertouch on my Ensoniq SQ-80 even with it's 'clacky' keyboard mechanism. Very responsive nonetheless. It controls a JV-1080 via midi which responds *GREAT* to poly aftertouch. Especially on long evolving pads. Once you become accustomed to polyphonic aftertouch you no longer willfully accept the severe limitations of mono aftertouch keyboards. Especially when it comes to any kind of expressive playing! Peace out ✌
The sound is disappointing for such a beast, level ... Cold, harsh, cheap sounding ... If Katsunori "can't make it happen" no one can ... I give it 5 out of 10 max ...
@@SPAZZOID100 you'd be right! I'm a classical cat going into electronic major, major change with a whole lot of discovery: if you have any links or names to point me in the right direction, I'm all ears😊👂
@@marzzz1 It's James Reeno, THE biggest internet troll that has ever existed. You can expect this comment, or the comment that he likes the OB-6 and the Super 6 more after every Moog One video..
