I was going to spend $4000.00 on a dental implant, but this seems like a lot more fun.
i think this will chew your food for you......
Just imagine, if you brushed your teeth you could have had a Minimoog.
Heathcliff who needs teeth?
I just need 3 saw tooth
I won a Herbie Hancock minimoog signed
its used to cost the price of a car and now all these years later it still does haha
a used car; and not a very good used car :)
My father got his original Mini Moog Model D in 1974, 14/15 years old. most of his relatives was sponsing him, and as he was the first and only Moog owner of Northern Norway, it was short cut of getting to play on the records of some very prominent Norwegian Musicians. As a Moog player/ synth soloist he is up there With Jan Hammer. I also own a Moog, but its a Sub 37, its also a great synth, but nothing sounds quite like a real model D, or perhaps a model D by behringer can I am Glad Behringer has comed up With something that can give us the Authentic Moog sound for such a good price.
Hey Daniel, I'm not sure if you ever see these comments, but you are, by far, the best synth demonstrator on CZcams. I just got the Arturia Mini V Minimoog software synth on my computer, and this was a tremendous help in teaching me, at a level I could understand as a beginner, how everything works. Keep up the excellent work!
Thanks, Zach! I do indeed read every single CZcams comment. But yours is one of my favorites. Be sure to watch my free Synth Clips tutorial series:
czcams.com/play/PLlczpwSXEOybYYaBCTcjxxKz1QmxytbIf.html
Put my headphones on at work, opened up this page, and just listened to the sounds while working on spreadsheets. Sonic bliss. I could go all day on this.
Just received mine yesterday! Wow, I'm blown the F away! What an awesome piece of musical art! I own the Voyager, Sub 37 and MF-pedal. Nothing can touch this beast! Thanks for the super demo!
Great Intro and demo of this high-end-class-A-synthesiser.
I've been waiting for these demos to hear how it sounds, and I'm not disappointed at all. Thing sound right.
Thank you for posting this! One of, if not, the best sounding analog synthesizers in the history of synthesizers period.
I hope that Moog will bring the Model D back in production someday because I would really love to have one!
Awesome profile pic! Klaus Schulze is a legend!
@@zachhaywood1564 Thanks! He was truly my most favourite artist of synthesizer music :)
@@jorgebohyn Mine too! He's the reason I started playing them!
Your wish has been granted on Nov 17, 2022. It is back in production. Go forth and preorder!
Hell of a demo Daniel. You're one of the best. Appreciate it.
It sounds absolutely awesome!!
what a fantastic demo
Fantastic synthesizer!!!👍 Fantastic sounds!!!👍
Daniel on the best demos post jexus, A+ sir
Fantastic sound !
WOOOOOOOW! Sounds excellent!!!
Wow, sounds great
It's so beautiful.
Now I learned on what sound effects in my childhood's Sci-Fi movies was made :)
Wow, Daniel Fisher shredded on it... that was great.... mine is on order... KUDOS to MOOG for bringing it back the right way. Many are complaining about the price, but it is better than paying 5 to 8k for a used one that is not near as dependable as this will be, and that has a horrible keybed. It cost money to have these parts made.
***** I wondered why you didn't have a memorymoog or a polymoog in your arsenal! I know those are notorious but damn do they sound good!
Yep, I wanted an Arp Quadra too but they are a mother to keep working! lol
***** I'm on the waiting list for a Cornwall VCS3. I think that will do it for me.
MegaCrasherMusic the price is fine considering what the original went for.
synthartist69 its a great synth n yes, quality costs $$$. I only wish Roland would re-issue some of their classics... not a fan of their boutique line
super demo! :)
Lovely Demo :)
Vibrating the finger on the key at 19:49 for multiple outputs, can't do that on a piano!
REALLY cool sound starting at 07:32 !!
Send it to me NOW! MUST HAVE
Seriously though, amazing demo and beautiful instrument.
Very Beautiful instrument
Nostalgia levels rising.
It did a number to my ears
Great! I like it.
I love the sound of Moogs, including Model D, that is one of the more affordable ones.
Still I think it is over my possibilities, especially as it is only a hobby to listen to nice sounds, far from anything professional.
So just have a KORG Microkey 47 + Arturia MiniV. I know it is not the real thing, but for my untrained ears very close to that (without real life potmeters)
I really like this demo too, what I do not get: why they want to show it's noise producing cabailities at the middle of the video, when it should be mainly used for music?
This is not the only Model D video does that. Lot of funny and weird sounds, no music play.
The last part is just fantastic, THAT is the sound for my ears.
excellent demo, it's great to see some real-time knob-twiddling and hear the results
Beautiful. Will this pair up well with DSI Tempest?
No Daniel this didn't cost the price of a car lol. I got mine when I was a teenager new in 1978 in So.Cal. (Coast Music for you oldsters from the area) for 1900.00, maybe the price of a beater car lol. Anyway always luv your videos, and this is actually one of the best D demos out there 👍
In 1978 you could buy a car for 1900 dollar.
Damm Daniel, back at it again with the Model D... Sonic-ally Stunning!!! - There is no Substitute
Does anyone know if the pitch wheel of the new reissue coming straight out of a box is very tight ? And rigid ? I just got mine and the pitch wheel is very tight , and am wondering if it’ll loosen up over time ?
Can you use Beatstep Pro with the Mood Model D reissue ? Velocity CV range
5V, 10V?
Beautiful! Apart from the gorgeous Moog, I was wondering how you recorded this? The audio is so pristine!
We connected a 1/4" TS cable to a TC Electronic Flashback, and a L/R 1/4" TS to 1/8" TRS cable from the Flashback to the video camera's Audio Input. Thanks for watching!
NICE!!!!! I thought it was not gonna be re-released....!
Yeah, lol to that. They'd be mad, this is gonna sell like lager on a hot day in England
16:30-17:00 my kinda tone for hip hop bass. add pitch/osc modulation/vibrato and play higher for a mad lead
7:28 "A MODERN DAY WARRIOR MEAN MEAN STRIDE, TODAYS TOM SAWYER MEAN MEAN PRIDE!"
11:22
Kept expecting him to play Ridley's battle theme from Super Metroid.
I would have liked an LFO for each OSC and one for the filter and envelope, but then again that's what the modular synths are for
LOOK AT IT, just look at it.
yes, these are all handmade it is all true! even the osc boards are made by hand with specialized equipment 🤠.
lovely
Maldicion, que hermoso está! lo más bello debo tenerlo
En efecto! Gracias por ver! (Translated via Google. Sorry if any errors :-)
I love how the filter is just SOOOOOO over blown
This is 2019 now and no longer available Looks like POLY D will take the market on this!
Update It''s now 2020 and the the Poly D is the most sought after synth rated at # 1 in interest.
658magnus The Poly D is rock-solid for 20% of the price of a Minimoog - and has more features.
By 0:57 my mind is already blown
Just missed the FedEx man delivering my new Moog Model D by 4 fricken minutes!! I can't believe I have to wait a whole 24 hours to get it. Oh the pain of it all.......
undergroundjohnny thats why i am staying home on delivery day.
8:30 if you want your eardrums put through a meat grinder. This thing is beautiful regardless.
Hi DanJ30. That's why the label on the side of the box clearly states: "Warning - This Device May Put Your Eardrums Through A Meat Grinder." Hopefully, that removes all liability. Thanks for watching
Yep ... I want one because it is a Mini Moog, .... but do I expect more from an early 1970s synth in 2016 .... ?
Hi zedster911, you should expect more; and you certainly do get more in the 2016 version: Keyboard Velocity, Channel Aftertouch, MIDI In/Thru/Out, an additional LFO, four CV Outputs, five CV Inputs, new Modulation switch options, an updated power supply, and a modern, problem-free Fatar keyboard. Thanks for watching!
Woooah that ping pong on top sent my head to space. In bloody sane !!!. Neatly dealt with 👍👍. I was just thinking a geeky auestion here. Do you think that having an external power supply helps with pitch stabilty as theres is less emission of internal heat ?
This beast should always be played with some delay / reverb to show its all power. Simply awesome synth!
Are there inputs on the back that make your wife allow you to purchase one? If not, is there a plugin for that in software?
There is a stand alone platform plugin called MAN THE HELL UP 😂😂
Reece Conrad "allow"?? Time for a divorce dude.
Reece Conrad My fiance brought me one. I am one lucky man (pun unintentional) ☺
Do you love it? I still want one so bad, but just can't justify the cost.
my dream
Why have they not named it the Model E? It has some new stuff & it's new. So it's not really a Model D is it?!
It's not that big of a deal of course. And it's not a complaint. I think it's fantastic they are re-launching the Mini Moog model E ...... sorry, 'D' (with extras & brand spanking new). Of course to the purists it probably sounds nothing like an original. I seriously want one though. I'd rather have a brand new synth than something that was launched when I was in pre-school.
Because they're trying to cash in on the analog vintage craze. People don't want an "E"....they want a "D". Even if changes are made, Moog is smart enough to call it what people want to hear.
hi.
I was talking with one model D owner on Facebook and he was pointing out he haves the model D and I don't and that I'm jealous..he was telling me that he was working hard for it and that he's making more money than I do ..he was dead serious about he's opinion about my jealousy he even send me a video of he's D..made he's priorities owning the model D mine as well... so I'm asking..are some Moog owners having mental ego issues often or was my experience just a coincidence? 🤔😁
moog the best!
What type of delay are you using? Sounds as Moog as ever!
Hi Dan, it's the TC Electronic Flashback Delay. If you press SHOW MORE under the info text at the top, you'll get more info along with a link to the Flashback. Thanks for watching!
SweetwaterSound cool that delay might be what i order as well, I forgot to order the pedal lol
Hermoso :'3
How many other wood finishes will be available?
Any you need and desire, simply go to B and Q and apply generously 👍🏻
Fantastic additions! (except for the wall wart)
Hi James, Although the external power supply is less convenient, it's sonically advantageous to get that transformer out of the synthesizer. Thanks for watching!
SweetwaterSound can u offer a 48-month installment plan??
SweetwaterSound I agree. And power supply failures are much easier to deal with when its an external unit.
can i buy it now??
One has to wonder, would the original Model D of the 70s have included the modifications in this reissue model, if the technology existed back then? Does anyone th No the mods interfere with the original architecture in any fashion?
ShreadTheWeapon midi did not exist in the 70's.
I like how they expanded the Modulation without adversely affecting the basic design.
They took away the foot switch jacks for the Glide and Decay. I hate those ribbed wheels. Why didn't they go for clear ones that made the originals look so cool?
My guess is that the ribbed wheels grip to the finger better. Especially in fast chopping live situations. Not saying im right but that is a possibility.
warmth analog crunch tape feel
Rick Wakeman is going to love this.
5:30: Seems like Daniel was channeling deadmau5 for about 30 seconds lol.
Does the panel not lay totally flat with cables inserted???
It does. Check @21:21
SweetwaterSound Thank you for the reply + time stamp. That is actually the part that I was referring to-- it may be an optical illusion, but it looks like the panel is slightly ajar. On closer inspection, it looks like the wood on the top of the panel actually sticks out a little bit as a way to stop the panel. At any rate, wonderful review and demo as always! Any plans to do more demos with the new Model D? I love watching your demos where you incorporate your theremin for CV control ;)
Check out photos 12 and 13 here: www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MinimoogD/
SweetwaterSound Thanks again! Much appreciated :). The photos you provide on your site are always useful!
Very nice demo!!! Does anyone know which oscillator boards have been recreated in the Minimoog reissue? The "fatter" early ones or the more stable later ones? Thanks!
panulli4 who cares??
It should be named "Model E" :D
Model E for erection lol
E
granted, not the price of a car, but still made from the rarest unobtanium
Warning, can damage some tweeters and woofers if not careful
use a keyboard amp always......they destroy guitar amps at volume
Nice demo Daniel! Now what can I sell to finance one. This is a must have. Already have the korg ARP Odyssey. If I got the model D, dare I say it, I could rule the world...
Everybody wants to rule the world ;-) Thanks for watching!
Not surprisingly it sounds amazing, but is it too much money in an era when there's so many analog options?
the question is, do you have the money?
That is one question of course. Providing you have the money, what need does it fufill?
All depends on what you want. If you're just looking for a good money deal, this synth probably isn't going to win "value for money" awards. The Moog Sub 37 arguably offers much more bang for the buck all around. But if you want a Minimoog sound and a high-quality instrument, then that's the need this fulfills. That's what it was designed for, and hopefully that's what it delivers. The jury is out until more units are out and about and people have had a good chance to test and play with them.
+DoomCity202 you're paying for the remake of synth that really is part of our collective history, most would agree it's perhaps not 'worth it' in comparison to other synths if you only look at features but that's not what it's about. It's gorgeous to look at, ya kids will love it, there's too with luck. Better synths by design features such as jdxa really are amazing but will they still have allure in thirty years? I'm not sure. This will, it's already passed the test of time, I don't want to spend 3k on a damn mono but I've always wanted one of these, I can see me getting finance on one even though I know it's not really 'worth it'
+SyntaxXxatnyS the oberheim is totally gorgeous but honestly after seeing it I'm not sure how it's going to last compared to this, I also did not like certain dials and their respective dead areas, jury out on that one IMO.
“It basically cost the price of a car and now all these years later...it cost the price of a car”
Hi Derek. Back then, the price of the original would have bought a new basic car. Today, the price of the current version would buy a used basic car. Thanks for watching!
Aaah I want it but my room's too small & I don't have space for it & I can't afford it & eeeeeh...
81 I had a chance to get a Model D for 500 bucks,, yes, I've gotten really good at kicking my own ass.
"D'oh!" -_Daniel_
Great synth.. But will it actually help you to make better music?
better than with what? it is up to musicians what sound do they need
If inspiration and the love of the instrument helps you then ya, if not then I suppose NO.
these things are interesting for me... As I just think musicians buy them to find out their music sounds the same! When was the last time you heard a song and went 'omg they used a moog bass?' lol
not long ago to be honest, I was on Unckle concert and I think I saw minimoog (or voyager) I do music in virtual synth and can say that when I got right synth I wanted I feel happier so if moog sound is what you need you may have better music than now (if u have any) :)
PapunaOfficial like you said 'saw' not heard. Big difference but I respect your opinion!
LOOKA DAT FLAT TOP
$3500?
Oh well, who needs food anyway.....
Prism Blue fasting for a while actually boost creativity and energy levels when done right with water and seasalt, so yeah who needs food 👍😉🎵
Would not have used delay on the demo ..... unless Sweetwater is giving a free delay with a purchase of the Moog.
Hi TheBigGuppy, the way a synth sounds through delay is a crucial, decision-making quality for me and some friends in the synth world. It'd be like listening to a raw guitar demo without sections featuring distortion or reverb. But you can hear over 14 minutes of pure minimoog Model D from 3:08 - 7:08, 8:30 - 12:30, 12:59 - 14:50, 15:15 - 18:56, and 20:28 - 21:20. Thanks for watching!
why did they stopped voyager and than re released this?
Voyager market was already oversaturated.
PapunaOfficial The Model D wasn't meant to perform complex synthesis, it is a tone machine. Plus, this is a renaissance, and a company like Moog must be looking at the prices that the modulars and Minis fetch on the second hand market and were wondering why they couldn't get in on that cash cow. They waited until the absolute peak to jump in.
PapunaOfficial this is MUCH better.
James Reeno in what point? why would they release in 2002 something worst than in 197x ?
PapunaOfficial voyager sucks
The core of PinkFloyd sounds.
Nice video, thanks. But I am very pissed off with the rip off country UK - the new Mini Moog costs £3.300 over here and when buying one in the US, you pay £600 less! That is insane!
George Tempest we pay less for the Model D and lots of other things due to your import prices, but you get free health insurance and we pay hundreds a month... so it kinda balances out. If anything, you're ahead cause hey, what's more important than your health? Am I right ;)
4:20 than what???
lol
only Gearslut-ers will understand that one
LOL - Oh boy! :)
If given a choice...this or the sub 37?
What is the midi spec? I really don't know why moog had to ruin their other modern synths by severely limiting the high end so everything sounds dull and low pass filtered. This sounds much better but cost a ridiculous amount for a mono. Can you now have 2 oscillators and 2 LFOs?
Other Moogs are fine. My Sub Phatty will take your head off.
Chers amis internautes.
Je programme des synthétiseurs analogiques et numériques (y compris le DX7 qui a une synthèse tout-à-fait particulière).
Voici quelques notions de bases de programmation.
Dans n'importe quel synthétiseur, vous retrouvez les modules suivants.
1 Les oscillateurs qui sont à l'origine de vos sons (c'est l'équivalent des cordes de guitare pour une gyitare).
2 Les formes d'ondes.
Elles peuvent être sinusoïdales, en dens de scie, carrées, triangulaires, etc...
Pourquoi les appelle-t-on comme cela?
Parce que cela correspond à la représentation graphique de la forme d'onde sur un oscilloscope
Aïe!
Vous me suivez jusqu'a là?
Bon.
Tant mieux.
3 Le filtre.
Il s'agit d'un module qui permet de soustraire des harmoniques à toute forme d'onde analogique.
D'où le nom de synthèse soustractive.
Il y a trois paramètres de filtre que je ne vais pas vous énumérés car cela est très techbique.
4 L'oscillateur basse fréquence ( Le LFO)
Il s'agit de moduler le son.
OK.
A plus tard pour la suite de ce cours!
Je l
On one hand I love it. On the other it is just too impractical for stage use as it lacks any storage options. So I keep my Phatties.
anonymusum never stopped Bernie Worrel or George Duke.
anonymusum this is better.
No presets right?
And can you save a new preset?
Hi David, Right. Like the original Minimoog Model D, there are no presets and there's nowhere to save a new preset. Fortunately, once you get to know the relatively simple front panel, you'll find that you can get your desired sounds on the fly.
SweetwaterSound Thanks for your response!
David German you have never heard of the minimoog??
James Reeno Yes, just wasn't sure about the No Presets on the "Model D".
David German it's never had presets.
A headphone user's warning would have been nice, aaRGH! 03:14
And ruin the surprise? ;-) Seriously though, we went to 3:14 and couldn't find anything jarring there. Was 3:14 where you meant to link to? Thanks for watching!
+SweetwaterSound yeah, I should have put the time a few seconds before. My ear drums felt like they were being sucked out of my ears from the extreme low frequency around that time. I'm not knocking your video though, It's a great demonstration. :)
original minimoogs didn't "cost as much as a car." they were about $1,500. you couldn't buy a car in the 70s for $1,500 unless it was a used car, like a '57 chevy or '70 chevelle super sport or something like that. in the 80s, people advertised them for $150-200 and couldn't get rid of them.
chieftp u adjusting for inflation???
chieftp and those days will never return. Idiots selling minimoogs for $300 to replace em with crap like dx7's. People by now have come to their senses.
James Reeno
they weren't idiots. that was just the market value at the time. also, the DX7 wasn't "crap." it was a state of the art synth at the time and people lined up around the block to buy them. 30 years later, they're still holding up just fine.
1500 dollar in 1971 = 11,809 dollar now. You could perfectly buy a car for that money.
That filter= acid
Take the TC Electronic Flashback Delay just hear real sound of the synth, please.
Hi starglider101, You can hear pure minimoog Model D from 3:08 - 7:08, 8:30 - 12:30, 12:59 - 14:50, 15:15 - 18:56, and 20:28 - 21:20, for over 14 minutes of raw, unprocessed minimoog sound. Thanks for watching!
I sold my 50 Aniv. Voyager it simply SUCKED.... Soon YT will be flooded with AB war comparisons between which one is better. The original or re-issued D model.
Folke Musika the Creamware MINIMAX sounds closer to the Model D than the voyager ever did.
Can't believe in 30 yrs + as keyboard player never heard of or came in contact with the Creamware. I was aware of a rather obscure STUDIO ELECTRONICS MIDIMOOG rack mounted Model D which didn't interest me much... Thanks much for the reply glad to know I can still trust my ears.
Folke Musika quite obvious that it sounds like the original. All the voyagers sucked.
Just get an MS-20....
shadowseal22 have one. It sucks on every level compared to this.
Still costs the price of some cars ;-)
Brent Valenzuela quality
quality what? I watched the video and listened to Daniel Fisher's comment about synthesizers costing the same amount as cars when the model d was first issued. Bug off james reeno
Brent Valenzuela worth it. If u cannot afford it, buy a microbrute.
Brent Valenzuela a real CHEAP car.
Brent Valenzuela a JUNK car.
