A new method of sonic experimentation, communication, and connection has arrived. Say hello to Messenger, a next-generation analog synthesizer that celebrates classic Moog circuitry and introduces modern features to shape the future of sound design.
Messenger is a new Moog monophonic analog keyboard synthesizer designed for the electronic musicians, producers, sound designers, sonic tinkerers, and analog dreamers of today and tomorrow.
Engineered to open new portals of art and expression through sound, the instrument is ready to be a trusted creative companion for any musical genre or style—at any point in your synthesis journey.
Timeless and Intuitive
Messenger builds on the DNA of Moog’s most iconic and prolific monosynths—Minimoog Model D, Voyager, Grandmother, Subsequent 37—and puts a new spin on a familiar format with innovative circuits and timeless analog sound.
A Legend Reborn
The legendary Moog transistor ladder filter gets some new tricks up its sleeve. A unique pole-mixing design allows the ladder filter to preserve bass frequencies as resonance is increased via the RES BASS switch while keeping its sonic legacy intact. Low-pass mode adds a 2-pole filter slope in addition to the classic Moog 4-pole low-pass filter slope.
Inspiration at Your Fingertips
32 full-size semi-weighted keys with velocity and aftertouch, a robust metal panel, 256 presets, and knob-per-function controls mean Messenger is endlessly playable and ready to bring to your next gig.
Compositional Powerhouse
Effortlessly record sequences of up to 64 steps, integrate chance operations, and introduce random fluctuations and parameter recording. Experiment with a plethora of arpeggiator patterns and cascade notes into infinity.
Sound Design and Modulation Playground
Two loopable ADSR envelopes, two LFOs, and expanded frequency and audio rate modulation options via Oscillator 2 provide a wealth of modulation options and deeper assignable possibilities.
Comprehensive Connectivity
Messenger integrates seamlessly into any studio or live setup with six analog control voltage (CV) patch points, an external audio input to the filter, expression and sustain pedal inputs, and 5-pin DIN MIDI in/out as well as MIDI over USB-C.
