The Moog Muse is an eight-voice analog bi-timbral polyphonic synthesiser.
Muse is an intuitive and powerful instrument built on the rich history of Moog. This studio or performance centerpiece is driven by eight analog voices, each with two VCOs, modulation VCO, dual VCFs, and a stereo VCA — all with that recognisable, kinetic analog quality.
Muse is a melting pot of classic Moog designs paired with forward-thinking controls in one complete instrument. The very best of vintage Moog circuits have been selected to create Muse – inspired by Moog Voyager oscillators, MF-102 Ring Modulator, CP3 Mixer, 902 VCA module, and a 904a Filter.
With 16 banks of 16 patches, you’ll discover beautiful pads, organic FM plucks, attention-grabbing leads, subterranean basses, stage-oriented key splits, as well as 2 banks reserved for your own sonic discoveries. Explore endlessly with cutting-edge digital controls for powerful modulation capabilities, dedicated macro control, customisable envelopes, and multiple flexible LFOs.
Muse was created for, and by, modern musicians, producers, and sound designers who appreciate performance-oriented controls, intuitive knob per function layout, and “More” menus for every module. Built for stage and studio with a 61-key Fatar keyboard with velocity and channel aftertouch, a left-hand controller with pitch and mod wheels, and a programmable Macro knob makes the experience of interacting with Muse inspiring, intriguing, and extremely playable.
A hypnotic stereo Diffusion Delay processor was inspired by golden era vintage digital rack delays with a unique and powerful set of diffusion, multi-tap, and filter behaviours. Craft complex echoes and diffused tonal smears that add dimension and depth to any patch.
The powerful arpeggiator invites you to generate melodic ideas with compelling patterns and rhythms. With Muse’s deep sequencer, you'll unravel unique patterns and gestures — further develop these discoveries with parameter recording, generative/probabilistic functions, and detailed editing of every note in the sequence.
Complete Feature List
- 61 key semi-weighted full size Fatar keybed with velocity and channel aftertouch
- Diffusion Delay: a hypnotic stereo processor inspired by golden era vintage digital rack delays with diffusing multi-tap behaviour
- Dual analog VCOs per-voice derived from Minimoog Voyager circuits with wave mixing and programmable analog FM
- Per-voice analog Modulation Oscillator with pre-routed destinations which can be used at audio-rate as a third audio oscillator
