But now you can enjoy its classic Moog sound without the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/synthesizers\/comments\/40s7nx\/the_memorymoog_is_an_apocolyptic_nightmare_of\/\">headaches<\/a> or the sky-high vintage price, thanks to Arturia\u2019s Memory V emulator.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The Memorymoog was only made between 1982 and 1985, and was the last polyphonic synth made by Moog before it declared bankruptcy in 1987. People loved its sound, which was described as being six Minimoogs in a box, and the Memorymoog+ was among the first synths to adopt MIDI. It also came out right as the synth industry was shifting from analog to digital.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">It was also notorious for being <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/aAzM9bDBEQU\">rushed to market<\/a>, having tuning problems, failing power supplies, being haphazardly built, and exceedingly <a href=\"https:\/\/imgur.com\/a\/memorymoog-guts-72chH\">difficult to service<\/a>. Things that aren\u2019t really an issue for software.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Only about 3,500 were produced and now it regularly goes for around <a href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=1025X1701640&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Freverb.com%2Fp%2Fmoog-memorymoog\" rel=\"sponsored\">$15,000<\/a> on the vintage market. If you\u2019re willing to deal with one that needs some work, you might be able to get a steal at closer to $10,000. For comparison, Memory V will only set you back $149, or less if you\u2019re an existing Arturia customer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Memory V has three oscillators and one iconic Moog lowpass ladder filter per voice, just like the real deal. It also features an interface that pretty closely re-creates the dozens of knobs and buttons on the original. And, if you really want, you can stack all six voices \u2014 18 oscillators in all \u2014 for crushingly huge leads. There are plenty of towering emulations of classic synths in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/828658\/arturia-astrolab-37-synth-stage-keyboard\">Arturia\u2019s library of plugins<\/a>, but Memory V might be capable of the most oppressive tones of the lot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/882852\/arturia-fx-collection-6\">Arturia<\/a> also includes a lot of modern amenities that, for obvious reasons, didn\u2019t exist in the \u201880s original. For one, it supports <a href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=1025X1701640&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.perfectcircuit.com%2Fsignal%2Fwhat-is-mpe-midi%3Fsrsltid%3DAfmBOoqMxyrgVy1-UB_o5WhEVZGF4PeuxcxkC7c8E1Mhh-iCRAkcwj7U\" rel=\"sponsored\">MIDI Polyphonic Expression<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/gadgets\/920432\/osmose-ce-mpe-midi-controller\">MPE<\/a>) for complex per-note control. It also has a drag-and-drop modulation system with multiple envelopes, LFOs, and a function generator. There\u2019s also a powerful multi-arpeggiator for creating complex rhythmic and melodic lines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Memory V excels at typical \u201880s brass sounds, unstable pads, and rich strings. You can even dial in exactly how much analog instability you want. So if you want it to sound like you bought a broken Memorymoog in desperate need of service, you can.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Arturia\u2019s Memory V is available now.
