The Soul of Moog One: Custom Sounds Part 2

video upload by Synth Universe

Part 1 here

"This Part 2 continues my musical exploration of Moog One featuring custom-created patches from five years of owning and using this monster synth.

Does it have a characteristic sound? What are its sweet spots? How does its sound compare to the Moog Muse? I hope this video and part 1 will help to answer those questions.

With the Moog One discontinued and the release of the Moog Muse, I figured it was a good time to make these videos. The Moog One has at times been misunderstood and maligned. It didn't offer the sonic 'instant gratification' of some other classic synths because in a way it's in a category all by itself. It takes time to figure out how to get the best out of it, but when you do, it's one of the most powerful, musically rewarding and inspiring synths ever made.

All the sounds you hear in this video were created by me on the Moog One 16 voice and include poly synths, pads, strings, ambient, soundscapes, keys, arps and hybrid patches.

Any effects you hear on the sounds in this video are internal to Moog One. I mainly use delay and reverb and several patches use no FX at all. I generally do not use the chorus and modulation effects as they colour the sound too much (in fact my main use of the chorus effect is set at 0% mix to add gain to patches). No external processing was applied.
