I don't know the reissued Moogs, but I know a lot of really old original synth, among them original Moog synth and I know virtual synth from Moog, too. This means I own a few old synth myself and have got friends who own old synth, too. The old original Moog synth provide an unique sound, but also could come with serious issues, such as tuning problems or no MIDI interface. Virtual synth from Moog, e.g. the Animoog are very good, too, but they are using too much computer resources, while an Arturia iMini is as good, as an Animoog, without needing that much resources. The costs for a reissued, as well as for an original Minimoog are much too high. Btw. this also applies to Moog software. The Animoog does cost much more than an Arturia iMini, let alone that after you already bought the Animoog, you still need to purchase sounds, before you even could edit your own sounds. In short, Moog provides something more or less very good, "less" since it comes with very bad pitfalls, for too much money. Other synth, emulations of e.g. a Minimoog for the bad, but also for the good, are different to an original Moog. I know the Behringer Model D only since today and only from this video, not from "real live", so I can't comment on the Behringer Model D, but I don't like the pitfalls of original Moog and also not of original Sequential Circuits gear, the cost-benefit ratio of original old Roland and Oberheim synth IMO is much better. Even if money and pitfalls shouldn't matter, floor space and weight of original synth could be an issue, too. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
