Meet Muse, the fourth Moog polysynth ever created. It’s an eight-voice analog bi-timbral polyphonic synthesizer — the culmination of over 5 years of dreaming, design, and passion. Muse is an intuitive and powerful instrument built on the rich history of Moog, while simultaneously gazing boldly into the future. It’s designed to be rugged and portable for the stage, while equally at home as the centerpiece of a modern studio.

From the first playful encounter with the knob-per-function panel, Muse matures with you through years of boundless exploration. Explore and express endlessly with digital controls for flexible modulation capabilities, patch memory recall, and advanced sequencing. Each sequence exists independently of a patch, allowing for on-the-fly modification within the same musical concept. Armed with parameter recording, probabilistic functions, and microscopic editing of every single note in the sequence, the sequencer is an endless playground for musical arrangements. Rich and nuanced analog synthesizer history is baked into every aspect of the architecture — Muse is designed to evolve, surprise, and delight for years to come.
