actually it's an interesting video - BUT : per favore, do *never* ever again put comments on the irrational and absurd panICdemic in one of your videos, it's absolutely *destroying* the atmo and good vibes ! IF you want to publish your personal opinion about the panICdemic, just put it in a *separate* video - besides that, I've been liking your vids quite a while now, they're of great help :)
In my 50 plus years of playing Synths and Keyboards, ( I’m a huge Rick Wakeman Fan) I have never watched such an informative and enjoyable tutorial as this one. Well done Maestro. Ken in Scotland.
Thank you Claudio! Your in-depth tutorial is very clear and helpful and the best I have found to date. I am awaiting the arrival of my 2022 Model D, which has been on my wish list for 45 years!
47:43 start of Kraftwerk "Radio activity"!, Best explanation of the controls of the Minimoog yet, especially the envelope modulation settings I understand better now than from other demo videos.
I remember playing with a Moog synthesizer that Radio Shack sold when I was a kid. I had so much fun with it, even though I had no idea what I was doing. I really appreciate you explaining what each function does. Thank you. Cheers from Maine, USA
I've had both... sold my new one because my old 72 has some mojo.. but for sure the reissue is a Minimoog in every sense of the word. Yes.. very nice to have the aftertouch too :D
I got a minimoog VST recently, and I was looking for a tutorial like this just last week. This is so much more clear than any of the others I found! Thank you!
Claudio, that was one the best videos EVER on this synth and how to use it. Now I can finally reproduce all of this on my Model D (replica) Behringer. Thank you so much. Amazing.
Terrific stuff, Doctor! Thanks. One thing though: C3-P0 was a mindless philosopher, it was R2-D2 that was the sentient wheeled synthesizer. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!
BM said it's actually pronounced Mogch but he preferred Mogue. I guess it's now a company name so a free for all. Like Nissan in the U.K. Or Neesan in the US.
Doctor Mix, thank you for this video. I never could understand the relevance of Minimoog for today’s day but you explained very well and I could understand rhe uniqueness of this instrument.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for this amazing tour of the Minimoog! Really fun to watch you play and go crazy with it too! I’m just starting with the Minimoog and you’re great at explaining how this beast works! 🙌🏻 Will definitely check your other videos! 😊
Awesome video! I just started teaching electronic music and have a Mini Moog in the classroom. No sweat with not knowing ALL the jargon (you've got most of it down anyway); I can tell you've put in some significant time with that thing and I'm excited to try it myself tomorrow.
Interesting video tutorial. I picked up the Behringer Poly D Clone of the MiniMoog a few weeks ago. Spent an entire day experimenting with all the knobs trying to figure out how the device worked. In the beginning no matter what I did, I got no sound from he device. Then I just got clicking sounds from each key. Thought the device was faulty. Then bang! The device started to produce many different wonderful sounds as I was discovering what each knob can do. This video has helped put into perspective all the things I was doing. Hopefully now I can learn to love this synth as much as you do. I msy need to watch this video a few more times to understand what you were talking about as my skill with this device improves.
This was awesome. Love your energy, enthusiasm, and humor, while also being extremely informative! And a badass keyboardist on top of all of that. More minimoog content please! Peace.
Thank you for doing this tutorial, it's been a real help in understanding how analog synthesis works. I've watched other videos where they show how to get a certain sound by setting the knobs to certain positions, but they rarely explain *why*. Here in this video you explain exactly why. Thank you!
The ocillator 3 is awesome, you can do with it many things that are hidden. Like arpegiator, vibrator, and some incredible Effects. I love this synthisizer, I hope to meet him one day !
DOCTAH!!! Best informative and entertaining tutorial on the Minimoog I’ve seen yet! Thank you Claudio my homey-o for putting in the work here! Going to apply all this knowledge to my Behringer Poly D. Its an amazing bang for the buck analog synth IMO. Bless up and thanks again!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🎹🎹⚡️⚡️😎😎
Thank you for this video Claudio. I can't afford a Minimoog, but I do have a Creamware Minimax ASB , and have tried to programme it many times. Your video is the first one that got me to succeed .
Robert Mogue‘s greatest hit: Old McDonald had a farm ... Well, kinda one hit wonder in so far ... But then he produced the *Rogue* because the name rhymes to his own one.
Il primo VST per Cubase che ho comprato anni e anni fa è stato proprio il Mini Moog di Arturia. Credo sia ben fatto... ha davvero potenzialità infinite e lo uso ancora adesso anche per basi "moderne". Questa guida me la guarderò più e più volte! Grazie Doc!!! Sei grande e sempre di più il mio maestro!
Brilliant video. I've been randomly playing with the settings on the Beh***er Model D I bought a while ago without knowing what I was doing. Getting a cool sound out of it was pure luck. After watching your vid I'm starting to understand it much better. I'll watch your vid a few more times...
Thanks for this video, I watch you all the time. Its sick how you call out tracks and sounds we both think were so amazing. That CHiPs sound blew me out of the water. You inspired me to get a Poly D, maybe you can do a video on that gear sometime.
Hey, GREAT VIDEO. On the Chips sound, I think the 4th is fixed pitch between two oscillators (and some noise blended in), with the LFO pulsing being applied to the Filter cutoff. But still VERY likely the Mini D. Bravo!
Claudio apart from a great musician you're a great instructor/teacher as well !!! Your videos - the ones where you "resurrect" sounds and themes from the past - are such an inspiration !!!
Amazing !!! The first time that somebody explain all about the minimoog . And i understand it . I have the imini , on the iPad , but has the same controls . And sounds almost the same . Thanks . Really . Thank You .
Seriously wish I could get to see one of these beauties. I’ve only ever seen in digital synthesiser so seeing an analog synth is on my green Wish List LOL. Bet it smells amazing.
Am i liking this?! I'm loving this!! The Final Count Down!! Seriously, very thorough tutorial. Many thanks for a great vid and you're very entertaining to boot :)
the best minimoog explanation available for free, with no doubt. do your courses have subtitles? they should have even in english its very helpful for no english language people.
Great Video, played along using Moark plug in. Really helps having the all controls explained with demos of each one. Would also be great to see a similar video on the Juno 106..... Keep up the good work
Thank you very much for this video. There are more powerful and polyphonic instruments today, but the analog sound unique to MiniMoog will never be equaled. Let us not forget that we are in 1972. Thank you Claudio, I too am in love with my MiniMoog. :-)
my dream synth since the first day , for the moment i got a moog subphatty a little brother of the minimoog and i use it with a moogerfooger ring modulator 102 ,sound great
Great demo on the basics of analog synthesis and the Mini Moog is an ultimate classic. I have a software version that I use with my set up, as well as an OB-X software synth. The cool thing about the software Mini Moog (Minimogue) is that it has an arpeggiator, gate sequencer and some other functions that the original model D doesn't have on board. Although nothing beats the real thing. Back in the eighties I had an actual Cat (by Octave) hardware unit that I used primarily to learn analog synthesis. I also have several videos performing with my set up. For me it's mostly a hobby but I enjoy playing as much as possible.
Thanks for this Claudio, I bought a Poly D last year, I thought I was getting my head around it, this video has just opened my eyes! Loved the in-depth stuff. (sidebands mate.. )
Thanks Doctor 🙏 :) I learnt with you how to use better my minimoog model D for iphone offered by Moog few weeks ago ! With Midi bluetooth, i turned my Jupiter Xm into a minimoog! :D i know its not the analog one but lots of fun anyway!!
Great video. I have had a Behringer Model D for a few months now and am slowly, but surely, getting to grips with it thanks to video's like yours ;-) Perfect viewing for lockdown. Although I appreciate Bob Moog liked to pronounce it Mowg... cows go MOO ! Iv'e seen Rawhide on TV and cows go MOO ! in America too. Stay safe everybody.
In my mind, I count the noise generator as an oscillator, because it's another waveform you can select or mix in (depending on how the synth is designed, of course).
Great explanation of this great synth, also for people using cheap copies! Now I understand the knobs and possibilities even better! Synth life is better with Doctor Mix!
I am currenlty rewatching you video and I have my Novation Bass station 2 to test all your tips in real time. I am very happy because I can reproduce 80% of what the Moog is doing :) Oh and BTW I LOVED the Chips part!!!!
45:25 reminds me a bit of the second track of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds... "Horsell Common and the Heat Ray" and "The Artilleryman & The Fighting Machine" in particular - there's some fabulous synth stuff in that whole album actually - they used the Minimoog and an ARP Odyssey and near the end of production a Yamaha CS80 to redo some of the earlier parts
I love those War of the worlds synth sounds. Along with the Arp, Moog and a modified CS80 it uses a Freeman string Synthesizer and Ken Freeman custom synths that were called 'Thunderchilds' . I've never seen a 'Thunderchild' and have always been curious about them.
The square/rectangular/pulse waveform probably sounds "computeresque" because computers and video games have historically used it for music, especially in the early days, of course. Even today, because of history and culture, we still associate that sound with computers and electronics. Those who owned a Commodore 64 back in the day, however, had music based on triangle and sawtooth waveforms, as well, since the built-in sound chip, the SID (Sound Interface Device), which was created by a musician, was designed like an analogue synthesizer (it even had a multimode filter with resonance, ADSR envelopes, ring modulation, hard sync, and sample playback capability). That's why this computer is so legendary for its music, as rough as it might sound today. Most every other computer for a long time only used square waves, and most had no envelopes or any other synth-like features.
The Noise generator wouldn’t quite qualify as an extra oscillator but I think it could be used as a modulation source, like on an Odyssey, etc. Maybe I’m wrong. I have a Sequential Circuits Pro One and it’s honestly not very far off from the MiniMoog, minus the extra 6 keys, pink noise, 3rd oscillator (although it has a dedicated LFO, like most monos) and its filter isn’t nearly as nice. The overall sound is pretty similar.
Sorry about the too many ads! They were placed by default.. I've now reduced them to HALF of them ;)
It's all good. Get paid. Cheers! Respect from Brasil ✌🏿

@10:25 you briefly mentioned imitating other instruments. Would you consider making a video on it for us? Thanks for all the great videos!
Probably more Poly D owners watching this guide than Minimoog owners. It's been the top selling synth on Thomann for a while
Yup, Model D.
Sequential ciruits pro one here, and i think the moog sounds so inferior, but that probably because i have never used a moog
You caught me.
Model D owner checking in. This video is awesome too...really easy to follow through and gave me a much better understanding of the synth.
Yup!! I just got a Poly D this past July and The Doc is hookin’ me up with some knowledge!👍🏾🎹⚡️
The DEFINITIVE guide to using a MiniMoog, such detailed content, recommend anyone to watch this video to understand Analog synthesis.
Did you know your videos are absolutely incredible to watch while tripping? So sonically textured and enthusiastic
i've watched this vid in full 3 times now. it's better each time (along with my understanding of basic subtractive). thanks Dr. Mix
In my 50 plus years of playing Synths and Keyboards, ( I’m a huge Rick Wakeman Fan) I have never watched such an informative and enjoyable tutorial as this one. Well done Maestro. Ken in Scotland.
I know you, Kenny! Hope you're well mate! Cheers buddy! 😊👍
I'm self taught musician
Thank you Claudio! Your in-depth tutorial is very clear and helpful and the best I have found to date. I am awaiting the arrival of my 2022 Model D, which has been on my wish list for 45 years!
47:43 start of Kraftwerk "Radio activity"!, Best explanation of the controls of the Minimoog yet, especially the envelope modulation settings I understand better now than from other demo videos.
played along with the behringer model d - really sounded the same. Was good fun
I remember playing with a Moog synthesizer that Radio Shack sold when I was a kid. I had so much fun with it, even though I had no idea what I was doing. I really appreciate you explaining what each function does. Thank you.
Cheers from Maine, USA
Nice work.
The re-issue is the one to get. Midi, extra LFO, velocity, midi, aftertouch.
I've had both... sold my new one because my old 72 has some mojo.. but for sure the reissue is a Minimoog in every sense of the word. Yes.. very nice to have the aftertouch too :D
Also had both. Didn't hold a candle to my 70s mini
@@dingbatjack1234 I think the new one is based on the 1976 model... for some reason I just didn't gel with it... but it was still cool.
I had a 1975 model; the Reissue replicated it perfectly.
Like many others, I a tech add a dedicated LFO to my 1973 D .
Incredible! A lot of familiar territory but some absolute gems in there too, especially with the modulation oscillator in action. Thanks!
CHIPS! Omg, I loved that Moog lick when I was tiny.
Abraham Laboriel unmistakably nailing that bass line, too!
I got a minimoog VST recently, and I was looking for a tutorial like this just last week. This is so much more clear than any of the others I found! Thank you!
Claudio, that was one the best videos EVER on this synth and how to use it. Now I can finally reproduce all of this on my Model D (replica) Behringer. Thank you so much. Amazing.
God save the Doc! Thank you so much for this amazing video!!!
ochin priyatna bros...
Woah, cool to see you guys here
Best excuse ever, "Plus I'm Italian!" 🤣
Terrific stuff, Doctor! Thanks. One thing though: C3-P0 was a mindless philosopher, it was R2-D2 that was the sentient wheeled synthesizer. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!
The very best video on UA-cam describing the relationship between one setting and another and how they effect each other,thank you DR.
Moog as in Rogue - I’ve seen Bob Moog say this himself more than once.
I have a Moog Rogue - it's fab!
Yeah get it straight from the true (?) source: ua-cam.com/video/bMh9cWIap3U/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/HSdips7bK8A/v-deo.html
BM said it's actually pronounced Mogch but he preferred Mogue. I guess it's now a company name so a free for all. Like Nissan in the U.K. Or Neesan in the US.
That's right he did, there's some cool docs on him and his awesome inventions. I've always used "vogue" as the word to describe its pronunciation.
Doctor Mix, thank you for this video. I never could understand the relevance of Minimoog for today’s day but you explained very well and I could understand rhe uniqueness of this instrument.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Man, this is THE BEST explanations on the minimoog I have come across. I actually get it now
Thanks for this amazing tour of the Minimoog! Really fun to watch you play and go crazy with it too! I’m just starting with the Minimoog and you’re great at explaining how this beast works! 🙌🏻 Will definitely check your other videos! 😊
The keys, "They smell of analog." I know exactly what he means, and I love it!!! I have a home version 1977 Hammond organ and the keys smell the same!
I only have the behringer D, but you learn something everyday, love it!
Merci Monsieur Docteur Mix , vous êtes le meilleur pour expliquer l'inexplicable aussi facilement . Continuez comme cela encore et encore !!!
I'm new to the synth world, and just got the Arturia Mini V, thank you SO much for this video!

Graci for this Claudio. I just got a Model D and was struggling to get some more variety of sounds out of it.
Just got a Poly D and this was very clear to me! Very well explained thank you 🙏 Hello from France ;)
When you were talking about the low range on oscillator 1, Daft Punk used that as “the click” in Giorgio by Moroder
The ocillator 3 is awesome, you can do with it many things that are hidden. Like arpegiator, vibrator, and some incredible Effects. I love this synthisizer, I hope to meet him one day !
A lot of videos explain how to do this and that. I really appreciate how you make people understand the whys and hows

Me liking all his videos hoping I get a free synth
Luke Jones sorry dude I’ve got dibs on it already 😂
Nothing is free in life, you even have to pay death!!
Adalbertus Ignatius okay
@@Psztyk236 reality is hard 😉
Adalbertus Ignatius yea, but this is a synth video. You okay buddy?
Thank you for this video Claudio. I can't afford a Minimoog, but I do have a Creamware Minimax ASB , and have tried to programme it many times. Your video is the first one that got me to succeed .
Thank you for explaining the features so clearly. Off to get mine out of the attic!
Me: pronounces it Moog
everyone else: pronounces it Moog
Dr Mix: pronounces it Moog
Mowg
Native Brits: “We say Mewg because we’re British”.
Well, should I call their country ‘the OK’ because I’m German?
Always thought it was MOOG not MOAG , the only guy to ask it its name sake , Robert Moog , we can't he's been dead for 15 years

Seriously, very thorough tutorial. Many thanks for a great vid and you're very entertaining to boot :)
This applies perfectly, literally, with Softube's new plugin - Model 72 minimoog emulation. Thank you for such a damn good tutorial.
I purchased it too. It’s pretty good.
Can be used for Diva too 😂😂
Best video out there on the topic, thank you for sharing!
the best minimoog explanation available for free, with no doubt.
do your courses have subtitles?
they should have even in english its very helpful for no english language people.
When you were talking about the glide function , the first thing that came to mind is the synth solo on Heart's 'Magic Man'.
Portamento i think it’s called.
Great Video, played along using Moark plug in. Really helps having the all controls explained with demos of each one.
Would also be great to see a similar video on the Juno 106.....
Keep up the good work
Thank you very much for this video. There are more powerful and polyphonic instruments today, but the analog sound unique to MiniMoog will never be equaled. Let us not forget that we are in 1972. Thank you Claudio, I too am in love with my MiniMoog. :-)
I thought especially you might have appreciated this video ;-)
Great video, answered all the questions!
my dream synth since the first day , for the moment i got a moog subphatty a little brother of the minimoog and i use it with a moogerfooger ring modulator 102 ,sound great
I dont know where i would be without doctor mix
Poly-D owner here :-) I love seeing the original that it's based on. It's puts so much in perspective!
Great demo on the basics of analog synthesis and the Mini Moog is an ultimate classic. I have a software version that I use with my set up, as well as an OB-X software synth. The cool thing about the software Mini Moog (Minimogue) is that it has an arpeggiator, gate sequencer and some other functions that the original model D doesn't have on board.

I also have several videos performing with my set up. For me it's mostly a hobby but I enjoy playing as much as possible.
Awesome video! I'm able to use all of this on my Model D iOS app!🤩
Claudio, thank you for your wonderful tutorial. Your fun and enthusiasm are absolutely contageous! Keep up the great work!
The song you were playing the bass line was Chameleon by Herbie Hancock
Excellent !!! Much better than to read the manual
Thanks for this Claudio, I bought a Poly D last year, I thought I was getting my head around it, this video has just opened my eyes! Loved the in-depth stuff. (sidebands mate.. )
43:52 Chameleon. This is the mother of all tutorials.
Thanks Doctor 🙏 :)
I learnt with you how to use better my minimoog model D for iphone offered by Moog few weeks ago !
With Midi bluetooth, i turned my Jupiter Xm into a minimoog! :D i know its not the analog one but lots of fun anyway!!
I love your energy man!
8:25 that is also the concept of the chorus effect. adding a detuned voice under another
Dr THE COOL mix.just to see these synths would be sooo good.i have system 8 and am blown away by it.
I love this introduction!
My name is Claude and I have a MiniMoog from the same era! I live in Austin Texas. Great video!
19:20 I believe I have heard this in the film "Alien" when Ripley setup self-destruction of Nostromo.
Good Catch! ua-cam.com/video/EO9x0y5lqD0/v-deo.html
I love that part!
I believe they used an ARP 2600 for most of the sounds in Alien. Probably using a similar technique but using a different synth.
I noticed that too. Excellent sound for a critical alarm
Really great tutorial, thank you!
THE KING OF ALL SYNTH
Great video. I have had a Behringer Model D for a few months now and am slowly, but surely, getting to grips with it thanks to video's like yours ;-) Perfect viewing for lockdown. Although I appreciate Bob Moog liked to pronounce it Mowg... cows go MOO ! Iv'e seen Rawhide on TV and cows go MOO ! in America too. Stay safe everybody.
Thank you for inspiring me to have a fun evening on my Minilogue :)
As usual.. Claudio's magic touch 😁
Qué grande, Claudio. Cuánta generosidad. Una de tus mejores producciones. Increíblemente didáctica.
In my mind, I count the noise generator as an oscillator, because it's another waveform you can select or mix in (depending on how the synth is designed, of course).
Great explanation of this great synth, also for people using cheap copies! Now I understand the knobs and possibilities even better!

So clear and educational! SEI UN GRANDE AMICO MIO!
Best tutorial ever , keep well, from Sheffied, England.
Much awaited video! Thank you dottore miscola
I am currenlty rewatching you video and I have my Novation Bass station 2 to test all your tips in real time. I am very happy because I can reproduce 80% of what the Moog is doing :)
Oh and BTW I LOVED the Chips part!!!!
"How To Use A Minimoog Synthesizer"
Step One: Have a Minimoog Synthesizer.
Step two, find a cheap Minimoog synthesiser.
I have a Behringer Model D. It's not quite the same, but IMHO it works fine.
It can give you a great satisfaction with a very cheap price.
Daniele Fontana there is also a minimoog app on iOS.
@@Daneel56 Great piece of kit for less than £700, Behringer are doing some really good stuff at affordable prices.
Or grab your Model D or Poly D.
Awesome 😎 Doctor Mix, and my favourite synth. Thank you 🙏 brings back many memories 💋
Great video ! I had the Arturia Mini V but it didn't make full sense. Now it does thanks to you !
