Description: Your personal park of synthesizers.
Created in collaboration with the Bob Moog Foundation, MODULAR ICONS puts history’s most coveted synth sounds into your own studio. Start with over 100 presets crafted from the real sounds of legendary artists and their prized modular instruments from Moog, Roland, ARP, Buchla and more. Create your sounds in real time with powerful macros and generate evolving analog patterns with the built-in sequencer.
Many of the most influential electronic music pioneers of the last 60 years have provided the sound source for this diverse collection of preset patches: Jean-Michel Jarre, Steve Porcaro, Mark Isham, Michael Boddicker, Jeff Rona, Benguet and others. And the audio was made with some of the rarest modular systems: Keith Emerson’s custom modular synthesizers Moog, the ARP 2500, the Roland System 700, the Buchla modular, TONTO (made famous by Stevie Wonder and reportedly the most expensive modular synthesizer in the world), and other rare vintage tools.
