Essential Information About the Moog Labyrinth Synthesizer
- Two 2x8-step generative sequencers produce interwoven and polymetric melodies that you can capture, recall, and evolve.
- Analog engine with West Coast-style voltage-controlled wavefolder, offering timbres ranging from duophonic singing tones to percussive attacks and metallic FM textures.
- Voltage-controlled variable state filter, continuously morphable from low-pass to band-pass to sculpt complex tonal shapes.
- Parallel processing paths and CV mixing to animate your sounds over time, plus a full patch bay for modular integration.
Next-Generation Semi-Modular in the Moog Lineage
Moog Labyrinth belongs to the brand's semi-modular family alongside "Matriarch," "Spectravox," and "Mavis." Designed as a machine for ideas, it combines Moog's analog DNA with a modern West Coast approach to reveal patterns, layers, and textures both familiar and new. Thanks to its synchronization via analog clock or MIDI, it integrates seamlessly into Eurorack systems, hybrid studio setups, or live configurations.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Ideal for producers and sound designers seeking immediate inspiration, Labyrinth suits everyone from curious beginners to modular experts. It excels in electro, techno, ambient, synthwave, IDM, experimental music, and sound design. In the studio, it enriches basslines or static patterns with sophisticated timbral evolutions; on stage, its generative counterpoints provide lively and polymetric dynamics.
Features and Innovations
At the heart of Labyrinth, two independent generative sequencers (2x8 steps) build melodic paths that intersect to create captivating polyrhythms. The analog engine combines a main VCO and a modulation VCO with ring mod and noise, then a CV-controlled wavefolder to fold the wave, enrich harmonics, and shift from round to granular timbres. The voltage-controlled resonant filter allows sliding from low-pass to band-pass, while two CV-controlled VCAs and two decay-only envelopes shape articulation. The parallel voice architecture and CV mixing offer duophonic behavior and evolving fades. The 32-jack 3.5 mm patch bay enables deep integration into racks and studios, and the instrument can be mounted in Eurorack (60HP) for extended modularity.
