Between its inspiring stories and tempting musical recipes, PATCH & TWEAK with Moog is a must-have for new and experienced synthesists and other Moog fans.
Inspiration in an instant
The beauty of semi-modular synthesizers is that you can start playing them right away, but with a few patch cables and some inspiration, you can take them so much further. PATCH & TWEAK With Moog ground you in the basics of synthesis, control voltage, and audio patching, then carries these concepts into practical use on each of the five Moog synths. From there, you’ll learn how to further expand your world by connecting them to one another, and even combining them with external synthesizer modules and other gear.
Five Moogs and every one’s a star
PATCH & TWEAK With Moog gives equal time to all five of the Moog semi-modulars. Learn about the Mother-32’s sequencing capabilities, the DFAM’s rhythmic tricks, the Subharmonicon’s interwoven textures, the Grandmother’s performance-oriented flexibility, and the sheer paraphonic power of the Matriarch. Dedicated tips and sample patches for each instrument make sure nobody gets left out… but be careful! By the end of the book, no matter which Moogs you started out with, you’re going to want all five!
Interviews you can use
Artist interviews can be fun to read, but do they ever teach you anything you can use? In PATCH & TWEAK With Moog, they do! Nearly every interview takes time to discuss how these artists use the very synthesizers featured in this book. You’ll get ideas, inspiration, and tons of specially-created patch ideas for the five Moog semi-modulars, all from the people who rule the music world with them.
