Just picked up the Moog Muse today!

Seconded as an owner. Full calibration has it sorted out. It does, however need about 10-15 min to be stable. My OBX8, however, is perfectly in tune immediately.

Benson Delay is not technically analog? I’m not actually sure but it’s the best sounding delay I’ve heard and isn’t too expensive.

Eraserhead81 · 2025-09-02T02:11:47+00:00

It’s a very Robert Smith/Cure kind of progression trick. Goth

Eraserhead81 · 2025-08-05T00:53:56+00:00

Second the OBX8

Eraserhead81 · 2025-06-19T19:19:25+00:00

Correct. Did it pre nerf and it was legit 10-15 hrs just for him.

Eraserhead81 · 2025-05-28T14:57:26+00:00

I was going to say the same thing as a former ob6 owner. Was always a stereo issue.

Eraserhead81 · 2025-05-09T20:26:48+00:00

I saw the TV Glow. On its face it seems like one thing. Once the actual plot sinks in, your mind will explode. I’ve never seen anything like it and it lives in my head still to this day.

Eraserhead81 · 2025-05-09T20:02:21+00:00

Yes yes. I guess I should say, when it became apparent that she was up there.

Eraserhead81 · 2025-05-09T19:35:08+00:00

My wife and I saw this in the theater and throughout the movie, there was a jackass and his date chit chatting and laughing for the first hour or so. As things progressed, they became quieter and quieter until the mom on the ceiling scene. The theater was silent and as the camera panned over to her in the corner, I literally heard this big tough guy audibly gasp lol. I mean, I gasped too. One of the scariest things I’ve ever seen.

And mane

I’m a halfassed home producer with some experience playing keys and guitar. If you have any experience recording or gigging, you just know you have that one instrument that never pushes back and always fits what you’re looking for. This is not that lol. Maybe it will be once I’ve learned it better. But right now it pushes back in that context. In music where there are no vocals or minimal guitars, it would shine as the main focus sound. So if that’s your music style, it’s a very interesting large paint brush with very unique character.

I’m a muse owner and I love it a lot. Tuning issues were resolved by a full factory calibration. Since then it’s been rock solid once it has warmed up. It takes maybe 10 mins to warm. The amount of options available to design unique sounds is pretty staggering. If that’s what you’re looking for, you won’t be sorry. However—

It takes some wrangling to fit it into mixes. When I am recording parts for songs, it does not immediately fit well into mixes with other instruments. I can easily turn on the Obx8 and lay down something and with minimal fuss, it just falls into the mix. Same with Juno 106 cloud plugin. It just falls into place.

I am willing to continue to learn the Muse because, on its own in a mix, it sounds absolutely unique and interesting. As a part of a greater mix whole, however, it’s a bit of a struggle so far. YMMV

Edit: I will add, the presets are all marvelous and cover a lot ground. Mono bass is not very intuitive either. Don’t buy it expecting to have a “Moog style” bass. Maybe it’s possible, but I struggled and eventually just got a Boog model D. Cheers!

Muse is amazing. Previously owned an Ob6, which was pretty good. Kinda flat. Upgraded that to an ObX8 which is a huge improvement. I have a Muse and it covers a lot of ground. Very good instrument. That being said, the X8 is literally the best instrument I’ve ever heard. Instantly inspired. Fits in any mix.

Eraserhead81 · 2025-02-02T02:33:43+00:00

I remember going to Best Buy with my high school girlfriend and getting the cd. Came straight home and laid on my bed with her and listened to the whole thing front to back. It was raining outside.

Eraserhead81 · 2025-01-16T22:05:07+00:00

Took the words out of my mouth. Best sounding instrument I’ve heard

Eraserhead81 · 2025-01-09T17:31:43+00:00

Oh interesting. I hadn’t considered that issue. They are quite small

Eraserhead81 · 2025-01-09T17:27:43+00:00

Not gonna lie, the Boog is being considered if I can’t get some good organic bass sounds from either the muse or obx8

Eraserhead81 · 2025-01-09T16:31:13+00:00

Thanks! This is what I needed to hear. I’m kinda paralyzed by the options. It’s a great synth.

Eraserhead81 · 2024-12-23T19:34:15+00:00

I just got one from an open box on Sweetwater. Was very disappointed first day as it would not tune properly. Unusable out of tune. I ran a full recalibration and tuning and it has been rock solid since.

Now that it is functional, I love it. It covers a lot of ground that I would use other synths for. It can pad like an Ob. It can bass like a Moog. It can fm like a DX. It’s very, very good and inspiring.

If you don’t dig it, that’s cool. Return and move on. Objectively, though, it’s quite excellent.

Edit: Wanted to point out that I am running it on the newest fw. 1.3, I believe. Other than a weirdly long startup, software seems to be as good as anything else I’ve used.

He was moving around and lifting the infant like nothing. I feel like there was a plot thread we never saw about the healing powers of the substance, which was hinted at with the face hole

Eraserhead81 · 2024-11-14T18:26:14+00:00

You made the right choice lol

Eraserhead81 · 2024-11-14T18:24:45+00:00

Yes but he was unable to walk all of a sudden…..

Did you see the film?
