Introducing Moog MessengerMessenger is a next-generation monophonic analog keyboard synthesizer from Moog. Packed full of innovative twists on beloved circuits, it blends the iconic Moog sound with flexible, modern features for today’s aspiring and professional musicians, producers, and sound designers.
Delivering massive sound in a compact package, Messenger features two oscillators with wavefolding functionality, a sub-oscillator with continuously variable waveshapes, dual looping ADSR envelopes, 32 semi-weighted full-size keys with velocity and aftertouch, and the legendary Moog ladder filter augmented with resonance bass compensation, multiple filter slopes, and true multimode functionality.
Equally suited for crafting soaring leads, delicate textures, and deep, rumbling basses, Messenger is a dynamic and approachable creative tool ready for the stage or studio.
TIMELESS AND INTUITIVEMessenger builds on the DNA of Moog’s most iconic and prolific monosynths— Minimoog Model D, Voyager, Grandmother, Subsequent 37—and puts a new spin on a familiar format with innovative circuits and timeless analog sound.
A LEGEND REBORNIn a first for Moog, Messenger features a twist on the legendary ladder filter which, in addition to high-pass and band-pass responses, will toggle between preserving low end when resonance is increased or the traditional low-pass ladder filter response via the RES BASS switch.
COMPOSITIONAL POWERHOUSE Effortlessly record sequences of up to 64 steps, integrate chance operations, and introduce random fluctuations and parameter recording. Experiment with a plethora of arpeggiator patterns and cascade notes into infinity
SOUND DESIGN AND MODULATION PLAYGROUNDTwo loopable ADSR envelopes, two LFOs, and expanded frequency and audio rate modulation options
via Oscillator 2 provide a wealth of modulation options and deeper assignable possibilities.
INSPIRATION AT YOUR FINGERTIPS 32 full-size semi-weighted keys with velocity and aftertouch, a robust metal panel, 256 presets, and knob-per-function controls mean Messenger is endlessly playable and ready to bring to your next gig.
COMPREHENSIVE CONNECTIVITYMessenger integrates seamlessly into any studio or live setup with six analog control voltage (CV) patch points, an external audio input to the filter, expression and sustain pedal inputs, and 5-pin DIN MIDI In/Out as well as MIDI over USB-C.
