Moog Music has announced the release of the Moog Model 15 app, an iOS version of the iconic 1970’s modular synthesizer. It is the first Moog modular synthesizer and synthesis educational tool created exclusively for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch.
The app recreates each facet of the Moog Model 15 modular synthesizer in a meticulous way to ensure the power and transcendent sound quality of each module remains intact. In doing so, Moog has preserved the character, harmonic complexity and mystique of the Moog Model 15s modules, from the legendary Moog 921–series oscillators and 904A Low Pass Filter, to the coveted 907 Fixed Filter Bank.
The Model 15 App has been designed utilizing Apple’s Metal technology, ensuring that all zooming, panning and modular patching throughout the application feels completely natural.
The Model 15 App features both monophonic and 4-voice polyphonic operation is easily commanded via 4 seamlessly integrated controllers. Simple swipes and taps provide instant access to a traditional Moog keyboard, 1150 ribbon controller, 8-step sequencing arpeggiator and the award-winning Animoog keyboard with 22 built-in scales and polyphonic modulation capabilities.
Also included are extended features which expand the capabilities of the app beyond the traditional offerings of the hardware Moog Model 15. These include total MIDI integration, assignment for external control, use as a MIDI controller, dedicated Audio Bridge and MIDI Bridge modules, looping recorder module with overdubbing, a master ping-pong delay module and a new extension cabinet that includes additional amplifiers and voltage-controlled reversible attenuators that can be used for effects like ring-modulation.
The Moog Model 15 app is available for purchase for $29.99 USD. It supports all 64-bit devices running iOS 9.3.1 or later. Compatible devices include iPhone 5s or newer, iPod touch 6 or newer, iPad Air or newer, and iPad Pro.
