The first version of the Moog Modular V was commercialized in March 2003 having been announced
at the NAMM show of the same year.
It quickly became popular being the first to offer an emulation of a modular synthesizer.
The name Moog® was obviously a trigger as for many it remains synonymous with the golden age of
vintage synthesizers. But strong interest from well-known musicians such as Isao Tomita, Klaus
Schultze, Geof Downes, Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock and many others helped create a real buzz
around the launch of the Moog Modular V.
At Arturia, we have received many messages of congratulations as well as requests for the evolution
and modifications for upcoming versions of the synthesizer.
Version 2 of the Moog Modular V has taken many of these requests into account and brings many un-
expected developments.
Firstly, as you will see when you launch the program, is a new means of viewing the synthesizer giv-
ing an overview of the entire instrument if your computer can support the resolution. On screens
with lower resolutions, by using the “scroll” command, it becomes possible to access all of the mod-
ules on the same screen, a feature that will delight many musicians.
We have also broadened the configuration possibilities for the synthesizer. Some modules can now
be interchanged, which brings the Moog Modular V closer to the original instruments that could be
configured by Moog Music upon order.
Improvements have also been made to the audio, making use of the evolution of our TAE® technol-
ogy which has seen improvements during the year. We have answered a frequent request in relation
to Audio-in so that you can now use the Moog Modular V filters or sequencer on an external source.
Of course, we have also developed new modules, six to be precise. The 928 (Sample and Hold) and
912 (Envelope Follower) were popular demands and can be found in this new build.
Also added are very rare modules such as the 1630 Bode Frequency Shifter – around a dozen models
produced - or completely new modules such as the Formants Filter
Last but not least is the addition of 200 new presets to this version. They make use of the new op-
tions offered by the Moog Modular V, and will be a great starting point for those who wish to dis-
cover this new version. Go to the last part of Chapter 7 if you wish to jump into using the new mod-
ules offered.
Hoping that you enjoy this evolution, we wish you the greatest pleasure in your use of the Moog
Modular V 2.
