The craftsmanship of the Universal Audio Minimoog is unmatched. A team of DSP engineers worked closely with Moog Music, meticulously modeling three vintage Minimoogs to create the most accurate representation possible. Custom robotics were used to measure each knob precisely, capturing the module-to-module coupling and impedance. The result is an incredibly realistic UAD Instrument with near-zero latency. When you open the Minimoog in your DAW, you’ll be inspired by its growl, fatness, and rich distortion. The detailed modeling ensures an authentic and unique sound experience, capturing even the pitch-tracking anomalies of the original Minimoog. It seamlessly blends into any mix, just like the hardware.
In addition to faithfully emulating the original Minimoog, Universal Audio has included custom mods to expand the sonic palette. These mods, including switchable note priority and legato, sample and hold, and extra LFO, pay homage to the modifications that original Minimoog units underwent. They offer added functionality, but can be bypassed for a vintage playing experience. Please note that there may be visual differences between the hardware Minimoog and the software instrument, as enhancements were made to functionality and capabilities.
The Minimoog UAD Instrument offers versatility beyond the limitations of the original hardware. It includes features like extra LFO/Sample & Hold, switchable note priority, legato options, modulation source selection, pitch bend range, and velocity sensitivity. Whether you’re a vintage purist or a modern music maker, the choice is yours. The Universal Audio Minimoog allows you to shape your sound with precision and authenticity, offering limitless sonic possibilities.
Reviews praise the Minimoog UAD Instrument, with one artist stating that it is so good they are tempted to use it live. The features of this instrument include capturing Minimoog textures in real-time with virtually no latency, experiencing authentic and dynamic sounds, and appreciating the meticulous attention to detail in its creation. It is the only Minimoog officially endorsed and licensed by Moog Music and offers a perfect mix with its midrange punch, high-end clarity, and rich low-end. Advanced features like an extra LFO/Sample & Hold circuit, switchable note priority, legato velocity sensitivity, and more enhance its functionality while maintaining the essence of the original hardware.
The Universal Audio Minimoog is compatible with Mac operating systems 10.15 Catalina, 11 Big Sur, 12 Monterey, or 13 Ventura, as well as Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit editions). It requires an Intel, AMD, or Apple silicon processor and 10 GB of available SSD storage. Activation requires an internet connection to download and authorize native UAD plug-ins, as well as a free iLok account with iLok Cloud or iLok USB. The UA Connect application is also necessary for managing native UAD plug-ins.
