Animoog....2013 Remember when............

I knew I had purchased Animoog for a crazy good price. 5 bucks back in 2013. That's freakin crazy!

http://discchord.com/blog/2013/11/28/animoog-expansion-minimoog-model-d.html

I really never used Animoog much. I bought_ R.Devine and Vintage Vibe_, and Vintage I really like, R.Devine is just ok for me.

I bought minimoog expansion today. And.......This preset pack really made animoog come alive for me. Quite a long list of presets 213. New Timbres too! (Though, I still don't understand what to do with these Timbres, even after it was explained to me :( )

I really like how animoog's in app purchases are really really reasonable. $3 $4 $7 for expansions. Compared to some other synths on ios, these prices are pretty damn good. Even Model 15, $3 or $4 for the expansion IAP's. Which, I bought today too. The reviews in the app store for Model are among the best I've come across. Very highly praised.

Seems like as good a place as any..........I got a musicians friend mag in the mail last month, after I bought my guitar, now they send me a mag every month to see if I want to buy other stuff. I saw this for $3,500 -

These ios versions are a damn good deal. Just sayin..........

And........... I just found out today. Name is not pronounced Moooooooog............ nope.... Moge.....phonetically I think that is right?
Man I'm a dumbass. How could I not know this!!!

Anyway, this has been a pointless post.....Enjoy ;)

  • Just remember Moog rhymes with Rogue.

  • I bought this on release for the iPad - it was 69p, less than half a dollar. I then picked up the iPhone version a while later when it was free.

    Those were the days...

  • Yes, Animoog was the app that pushed me into getting my first iPad, and have never looked back!

    I just can't help but shake my head at the irony that when Roland releases a digital VA synth everybody grabs their pitchforks yet nobody bats an eye when Moog releases an iOS emulation of their classics ... The internet is a strange place :D

    Thanks for the tip on minimoog expansions @High5denied

    I think you will really like the Grateful Dead pack...My favourite..... Now we're even :)

    Animoog and Model 15 are for me the most amazing synths on iOS...(plus a dozen of others to be fair)

    Sometimes I wish that the 4 track recorded could be synced and triggered remotely...for recording and playback...it's so sophisticated <3

    Too true. The Roland digital at the moment are top notch for reasonable street prices.

    I think some of the moaners are those that read about the great synths of old and nothing to them compares. They forget the house level prices, the bad backs from lugging a tank around, the constant tuning and the fact that many of the businesses couldn't actually make a decent profit from making them.

    People then compare a brand new board against decades old boards and nothing to them compares. Many compare on you tube (the irony of sound elitism using you tube should be not lost on many). Others still moan, yet have never owned or used any of these synth legends. This is common as most bands could not afford the top tier synths of yore anyway. Most bands apart from the elite used whatever they could get hold of and put on lashings of fx (hence the 80s drowned in reverb sound).

    Then we look at where the creative new use of synths has often come from? Well, much has come from cheap end gear being used in creative ways - 303, Junos, SY22 etc. The response to that is Roland are just bringing out old tech, so no new areas to explore. Then they moan when Roland bring out their interesting crossover concept, saying they just want the Analog tech of yore.

    So when I read the response on the Internet to synth tech now, I take it with a pinch of salt. I just think, how can I use whatever companies offer and mostly, will I have fun with it?

    ^^^YES^^^

  • Yes I agree Animoog is still awesome and I think you should be able to say Moog anyway you damn well please.

  • Animoog is just the best thing ever. I remember when I first got it, and thought "wtf is this, I can't use these warbly belch noises in my music" But something about the sonic character made stick with it and learn the hell out it. I think of it as "digital warmth". It's now my favorite. It really rewards experimentation. Make sure your taking advantage of all the modulation routings. With some careful path, orbit, and lfo use, I've gotten complete rhythmic phrases out it. Animoog riffs, there's nothing like them.

    Isn't that because Roland doesn't have any new real analogue synths? Or do they? Moog does mainly that.

  • A tutorial course for Animoog just went on sale for $2.99, down from $9.99. I've just started watching it, so I can't fully vouch for it, but I suspect I'll get $3 worth of learning from it.

    Thanks for that link Sean. Oh, I bet you will too.

    The Roland JD-XA and the JD-Xi have analog voices mixed with digital layers. Quite interesting products, actually.

  • @High5denied

    If you dont know what to do with the timbres Id strongly recommend watching some tutorial videos and wrapping your head around Animoog a little more, I think you'll really be glad you did once you realize the potential of what you can do to sculpt your own sounds and presets with the timbres, even the included stock ones. ;)

    I'm sure those are great products, I'm just guessing many Roland fans are looking at all the analog synth revivals from Korg, Moog, DSI/Sequential and Oberheim and expect Roland to follow the trend. A digital/analog hybrid or analog modeling just won't do. Will do for me though, those plug-outs sound amazing. I'd love iOS versions of those.

    Hmmm, perhaps this could be a wise purchase.

  • I got it for 99 cents in 2011 :wink:

    These folks make some pretty decent tutorial videos. They recently released one for the Moog Model 15 app, and also have them for the Moog Sub 37 and Moog Mother 32. I bought the Moog Mother 32 one, and I don't (yet) even own a Mother 32, but it was also on sale for $2.99, so I call this prudent planning.

    No one would be grabbing a pitchfork if those Roland emulations had the same price:sonic performance ratio as a polyphonic hardware Moog and Animoog/model 15. They're like 1/100 the price but (25-75)/100 the sonic loveliness. :)

    I thought your unattainable just out of reaching distance muse was the Sub 37? An excellent mono synth in almost every way, except for me it lacks that 'see all of the situation in one glance' capability, due to buttons and displays with modes etc. But, of those that do that, that's the best way I've seen it implemented.

  • I always thought it was lucky his first name was Robert, and not Roland.

  • theres a guy in my neighborhood I see driving around all the time with a license plate that reads "BOBMOOG".

  • Does he drive a Chrysler minivan?

  • Voyager perhaps?

    I thinks it's a black Cadillac sedan or something similar. Classy

    This should be a the featured quote atop synthtopia.com.

  • Also, I'm in the $0.99 club. It was my first iPad app—I bought it when it first launched in anticipation of getting said iPad. Was almost a year later.

  • I remember the intro price. I didn't have an iPad at the time. But shortly after, the iPhone version was released and I bought an iPod Touch just because of that app. I didn't buy the iPad version immediately. But I caught it on sale a few months later. Most of the IAPs are worth the money. Lots of good timbres to use. I still get sucked in to a timewarp when I'm making new sounds with it.
