These synthesizers have had a revolutionary impact on the music world and are prized for their warm, analog sounds and innovative design.

History:

Foundation: Robert Moog founded Moog Music and introduced his first modular synthesizer in 1964.

Minimoog Model D: Launched in 1970, this portable synthesizer became one of the most influential instruments in music history.

Features:

Analog Synthesis: Sounds are generated by oscillators, filters, and amplifiers producing a rich, warm tone.

Oscillators: Produce basic sound waves such as sawtooth, square, and sine.

Filters: Particularly known for the characteristic low-pass filter that removes unwanted high frequencies.

Modular Synthesis: Early models were modular, meaning components could be connected with patch cables.

Innovation: Continuous innovation with modern models like the Sub Phatty, Subsequent 37, and Matriarch.
