This is an amazingly huge and beefy synthesizer. I am selling it for a friend of mine, but not until I've had a couple of days to play with it! It is the thickest, wettest, fattest synthesizer among at least a hundred that I've owned & played over the years. When I turn up the Cutoff 100% with the Emphasis at zero, the sky rips open and writhing Lovecraftian demons descend upon my condo complex, raining down javelins of sonic plasma into the fabric of ultimate blabbity blabbity you get the idea.

This is an auction demo so there's a few dry moments here and there where I'm autotuning and testing all 67 keys chromatically, but I kept it shreddy enough to hopefully entertain my faithful subscribers for a few minutes."

  1. Massive sounding instrument, to be sure - have owned a total of three on & off since the late 80s, and currently own one of the last ones to be repaired/rebuilt by Kevin Lightner/Synthfool - very few synths can compare, for sheer balls. But contrary to myth & marketing, the MM is more like six '3-oscillator Sources' than 6 Minimoogs, no? Not as sexy in terms of marketing language maybe, but more truthful technically. Which is not in any way a knock.

  2. If it weren't on the other side of the country, I might be tempted. The only reason to own a Memorymoog anyway is simply for one thing; mono unison. Then, and ONLY then, do you get the full Cthulhu.
