Great sounds. Yeah this is a dream synth. I have one on order. Hopefully it will show up in a month, but who knows. You have any thoughts on this compared to other synths you’ve looked at or owned?
Thank you, I hope you will get it soon! Talking about polysynths, I have owned a Prophet12, Prophet6, OB-6, Yamaha SK30, Hydrasynth, Minifreak, Matriarch, Polymoog, Polybrute and Osmose, and I can say the Muse gave me the sweetest Pads. The Matriarch is paraphonic, but I mentioned it because I love the sound of that thing in 4-voice paraphonic mode, if it had 8 voices, I’d probably not have gotten the Muse. If money was a problem for me and I had to choose the cheapest option, I’d keep the Hydrasynth explorer only.
Great stuff mate...I crumbled and bought Polybrute 12..will get Muse next year. Too many delays..end of november now. Thinking the same about PB12..awesome synth..looked a bit complicated but already figuring it out. Not the Moog sound but it has its own magic flavour, loving it.
Congrats! The advantage of the PB12 (besides the most obvious ones) is the number of presets, I’d surely get lost on that nice keybed and zillions of presets
@@NGC0Music thanks man, plenty space but probably still run out lol! Keybed is superb, didn’t think I would love it as much as I would, tongue is on the floor 🤘
I was looking at the Moog Muse and the new Polybrute 12 but decided to get a used Rev2-16 desktop unit. I'll wait until the Muse hits the used market to get it. I decided not to get the Polybrute because the sounds don't impress me compared to my Novation Summit. I was just interested in the poly aftertouch, which other synths have, like the Waldorf Iridium
Fantastic machine, which definitely has a Moog-specific sound. Don‘t know why some people deny that. When it comes to modulation depth, among my 8 fully analog poly synths only the PolyBrute is on par.
@@kierenmoore3236 Yep, I got scammed because they have digital LFOs and envelopes. 😁 I mean: analog oscillators and filters, as in: P5, P6, Rev 2, OB-X8, OB-6, PB6, e7, Muse. What I don‘t want to read now: “But the Rev 2 has DCOs“! I‘m Rayy, and Espen is not.
@@RayyMusik Indeed, you have! 😉. lol, seems we have the same taste in synths and sense of humour. I love the REV2 - mostly because I bothered to learn it well … seems so many of them get flipped by people who don’t … ?!! Those are all really great synths, imho … e7 is an interesting/less usual choice; how are you liking it? What dj you use it for, mainly? Cheers!
@@kierenmoore3236 I bought the e7 in 2023 because I wanted a ladder filter poly synth (played a Memorymoog in the 80s) and don‘t like the harsh sounding Trigon that much. The basic sound of the e7 is fantastic; as someone put it: “The most vintage sounding poly synth these days“. It sounds more like a Memorymoog than the Muse does! However, it lacks many mod options I‘m used to from other synths. Another plus is the additional voice compared to the usual 6-voice synths. It is 4-part multitimbral, but I never use this. As a pad addict, I wanted to use it for - guess what. But here its greatest flaw kicks in: it does not have any kind of HPF. Of course you can turn up the resonance, but then it starts screaming beyond 25%. The greatest feat of the Moog designers is that final HPF at the very end of the Muse’s signal chain! Now, having the Muse, I wouldn‘t buy the e7 again.
Phaaaat n gorgeous. Fabulous playing. ❤
Thank you Jon

@@NGC0Music I sold my Matriarch 😳 To fund a Muse 😏 Hopefully I made the right decision
@@aquaticborealis4877You can do way more with the Muse.
Ooo that's pretty music 🎶👍
Thank You ❤️

That’s actually a great plan. You’ll have lots of fun with the Rev2 16 as well, it’s an amazing synth, so hopefully you won’t miss the Muse that much.
Have you changed your mind about it not sounding as good as an OB-6?
@@BullyMaguire4ever i actually did, at least for pads, which is 99% of what I use poly synths for.
They sound very different. However, the OB-6 is fantastic for pads as well.
Fantastic machine, which definitely has a Moog-specific sound. Don‘t know why some people deny that. When it comes to modulation depth, among my 8 fully analog poly synths only the PolyBrute is on par.
Which 8 ‘fully analog’ [👀 don’t let Espen see this, lol] polys do you own? Just wondering what you’re comparing the Muse alongside. Cheers!
We live in great times for synthesizers.
