Moog Subsequent 37 – Potent Duo-Mode Analog Synthesizer
The Moog Subsequent 37 is an advanced analog synthesizer that refines the acclaimed Sub 37 with enhancements to sound character, performance, and integration. With a silky-keybed, powerful analog circuitry, and hands-on control, it brings expressive tone and modular-level utility to any setup.
Key Features
- Mono and Duo (paraphonic) modes: Play single notes or two-note layers via independent oscillators sharing the filter.
- Enhanced analog voice engine: Re-tuned Multidrive for dirtier grit, filter gain staging reshaped for warm low-end drive, and mixer with doubled headroom for clarity and depth.
- Premium keyboard: 37-note semi-weighted keybed with velocity sensitivity and aftertouch for expressive performance.
- Robust front panel: A vast control surface of 40 knobs and 74 switches for immediate tactile sound shaping.
- Modulation & sequencing: Two assignable modulation buses, DAHDSR looping envelopes, syncable arpeggiator, and 64-step sequencer.
- Presets & editing: 256 onboard presets across 16 banks; includes a software editor/librarian plugin for Mac/Windows.
- High-powered monitoring: Headphone amplifier capable of driving demanding studio headphones.
