Does anyone have any experience with Arturia products, i.e.,  Modular Moog, 
MiniMoog, ARP 2600, etc?  Obviously not as good as the real  thing but Good?  
Bad?  Whatever?

Hi Frank,

I've have the Arturia Moog Modular V for a few years. I think it's a 
fine soft synth. The moveable patch cords are a nice touch and the 
sound is about as Moogish as you can get with a VSTi. You can also 
play it in polyphonic mode.

True, but I'd like to get some "hands-on" feedback.

Operational definition: "hands-on" by those who have actually used  it 
(before I spend/waste money on it).  The online demos are mostly hip-hop  oriented 
trash using sounds that I would likely encounter in hell.

Frank, I think "hands on" feedback is when you get your hands on it and  try 
it yourself. Just my thoughts.

Minimogue is a pretty nice free Mini-Moog clone, but it can't 
compare to the Moog Modular V for sound and programmability. Besides 
having 9 oscillators, it also has modules like a Bode frquency 
shifter, a 960 sequencer, 6 ADSR and several other modules. MMV is 
the next best thing to a real Moog-format synth.

Good morning to all!

 

I have been using Arturia Prophet V for almost a year. I love the sounds and
the ease of use and programming; however, it is does take up more than its
share of CPU load- make sure you have a powerful processor. The really cool
aspect of this is the bundling with the Prophet VS. I had not had any real
life experience with the original synth so it was nice to have access to
this great sounding device. Being able to combine both is a huge bonus as
well. I would certainly consider adding more Arturia products to my arsenal.
Enjoy the day!!

Thanks to all for your feedback.  Now I just have to wait for  my check and 
make a decision.

Frank,
 
Athough not the real thing Arturia do seem to take a lot of trouble to  
emulate the target instrument. My experience is mainly from messing with the  
modular.
 
But as a hardened "prefer the hardware" type I ended up buying a Nord  
modular instead...
