OVERALL OPINION
Having already acquired Arturia emulation (ARP 2600), I saw the high quality of virtual synth developer. Thus, perfectly confident, I acquired the Arturia Moog Modular V and the Mini that question here. After the complexity of Modular and, to a lesser extent, the ARP 2600, the use of the Mini Moog, Arturia reveals a child or game almost. Regarding the sound, I immediately raises doubt they are just perfect for my taste. Some incredible pleasure to find these fantastic sounds that we hear in his favorite records. I had the chance to discuss it a little more than a year, with Andy Tilisson (leader of "The Tangent") who explained to me wanting to sell his Mini Moog in 1973 because it was now in the emulations same sounds with facilities for storing presets. I understand better now that his words had me at the time, rather surprised! The use is quite simple since it is not a question here of a modular synth like its big brother or even ARP. The patches will show few and easy to perform. In general, the synth is very instinctive and does not need to be a keyboardist aware of all programming techniques to build up a good library of sounds. We found exactly what "organic" nature of the original with this special grain has its recognizable sound identity anywhere. The algorithms developed by programmers Arturia show all their power. In the manual, very comprehensive and clear, you can find an explanation of the specific process Arturia: the famous TAE able to reproduce the effects of discharge capacitors producing a slight bend in the waveform. Arturia currently seems to be the only one able to approach as near to the specific characteristics of the analog electronics. And that explains the reproduction quality of its software synths. An advantage, too, of this synth is the polyphony (obviously not on the original). Arturia and did not put there an option to discount: the sounds obtained keep the "grain" of the Mini Moog and greatly expand the possibilities of the instrument. Polyphonic sounds "Strings" and "brass" are particularly compelling: rich, beautiful and musical. Another compelling option: the "window" vowels that allows endless possibilities including an automatic change of sound by sweeping vowels being. You will understand: This software fills me.
