Moog MessengerMonophonic Analog Synthesizer

With the Moog Messenger, the manufacturer of many classic synthesizers is venturing into the future without forgetting its roots. Messenger carries parts of the DNA of Minimoog Model D, Voyager, Grandmother, and Subsequent 37. At the same time, the developers have further refined the analog circuits and integrated new functions that Moog has never offered before. Even the transistor ladder filter, the Moog icon par excellence, has been redesigned and supplemented with the innovative RES-BASS function. The oscillators and other elements have also been expanded and a sequencer integrated, making the analog synthesizer fit for the demands of modern productions. Thanks to its well-structured panel, the keyboard does not need a display or menus, making it ideal as a live instrument.
