Moog is a little like Apple. Their hardware is more expensive than the competition but the build quality is amazing and their synths are a pleasure to use. They also hold their resale value very well so they're a good investment for the long term.
Moog also happens to do bass sounds better than anybody else. You'll find Moogs in most serious hip hop and dance music studios.
- cellover 12y agoMoog having the best sounding bass is absolutely subjective. You can't sum up dozens of analog synthesizers brands by one sentence like this. Some prefer DSI, some prefer Vermona and so on. Also it's a question of generation. Today's Moog synths sound a little different to the older generations, generally are more precise, cripy compared to warm vintage tones. Two things concerning Moog: * It is pronounced /ˈmoʊɡ/ mohg. * They did monophonic synths only besides the Polymoog.
- cageface 12y agoSure bass sound is subjective. A bunch of other synths also do bass very well. I'm sure a lot of people still keep a Waldorf Pulse around just for its ridiculously fat bass. Personally I'll go for a Moog if I need a guaranteed huge, warm bass sound though.
