Beautiful, flexible and fun, the Moog Slim Phatty will give even the most seasoned musician a good time. Why? Because it’s unique push button interface coupled with Moog’s trademark ability to create thick, earth shattering electronic sounds will give you what ends up being a very budget friendly yet very high end synth. If you’re a musician in the dubstep or similarly bassy genre, then the Moog Slim Phatty is right up your alley.
Throughout this review I’ll be detailing to you exactly what makes this synthesizer so powerful, and exactly why you can expect to be surprised when you sit down to finally play this true analog synth.
Does One Thing – Rocks Your Face Off with Mind Wrenching Moog Tones
Moog is one of the only remaining brands to still create traditional analog synths, and one in particular that has garnered quite a bit of respect is the Little Phatty. Well, the Moog Slim Phatty is a budget/compact version of the Little Phatty with a reworked architecture.
Analog synths create a rich electric bass that you can replicate, but not mimic, with modern digital synths. The new Moog Slim Phatty is perhaps the most portable analog to date, and will give you deceivingly powerful sounds from such a small package.
Built with an extremely high quality oscillator and an arpeggiator, the Moog Slim Phatty makes chord progression easy, and complex riffs are basically built in. Once you account for the ADSR envelope generator and the modulation suite available straight from the key-less interface, you’ve really got one flexible and powerful analog synth.
You get 4 waveforms out of the box, but with a MIDI clock synthesizer and tap tempo control you shouldn’t have any troubly adjusting the sound and feel of your music.
Plays Well With Your Other Instruments
With MIDI in, out and thru capability, as well as the powerful MIDI over USB feature, you shouldn’t have any trouble integrating the Moog Slim Phatty into your current studio setup. This is a perfect addition for the musician looking to add a powerful dose of analog to their music without compromising the flexibility of their current instruments. Fortunately, you’ll be able to easily pair up this synth with any synth you already own, or with your computer workstation setup.
Here are Some of the Other Features of the Moog Slim Phatty :
