Moog's most affordable keyboard monosynth: two wavefolding VCOs, a sub oscillator and a reworked ladder filter with pole mixing and bass compensation on a 32-key semi-weighted keybed with aftertouch. It stores 256 presets and has a 64-step sequencer with probability, so it suits a first proper analogue synth as well as a bass and lead machine for a bigger rig.
