It has all the original parameters as the original with lot's of cool new features including polyphony (so you could play more then one note at a time), digital effects and much more real time controls via the new modulation matrix. Moving ahead to 2004, the Minimoog come into the digital age when 'Arturia' recreated the classic in a virtual software version called the Minimoog V. Kenton makes a good own which we have installed on our vintage Minimoog. Yeah, that's the way things were back then! Original Minimoogs did not have midi, but you could get several midi retro kits which could be installed to give you basic midi features. You could not save patches in it's internal memory - so just one sound at a time could be stored and played. The Minimoog Model D adapted some of the circuitry (such as the filter section) from earlier modular instruments, but designed other circuitry (such as the oscillators and contour generators) from scratch. The original Minimoog is monophonic and its three-oscillator design gave it its famous fat sound.

The Minimoog was designed to include the most important parts of a modular synthesizer in a small package, without the need for patch cords.

One of the true landmark synthesizers produced though the 70's - it's compact design, great sound and easy to use interface made it popular with both Rock & Jazz keyboard players ranging from Keith Emerson to Chick Corea. By the time it was discontinued in 1981, about 13,000 were produced. The original Minimoog was released in 1970.
