I've done a LOT of searching for a softsynth that will get one or two sounds of my Moogs. I've found some that sound "good." I get thinking that they are just about "it." And then I fire up one of the Moogs and compare, and find out just how different they are. One odd thing that I've consistently noticed over the past few years, is that if I find a good MiniMoog emulation, and match settings on it for one of my favorites on a Model D, is that, when listening to the emulation, it sounds very close. But, if I run each through a channel strip so I can directly A/B them, I find that the emulation is muddy and has no distinction. I have to roll a LOT of high end off of the real on to get the two channels to be even close. -- --- http://www.lateralforce.com My blog, with commentary on a variety of things, including audio, mixing, equipment, etc, is at: http://audioandmore.wordpress.com Staat heißt das kälteste aller kalten Ungeheuer.
