[9.69 lb] I previously reviewed the Moog Mavis negatively due to the lack of VCF out but I feel that this is an unfair reflection of the product (every synth is not the same and this is not the Werkstatt).

The Moog sound of this synth is very satisfying and fulfilling to experiment with (though I would like to figure out how to drive the added wave folding more aggressively), whether you're looking for a musical or more experimental sound. It's interesting that Moog decided to add some west coast sound with the wave folding (perhaps they may play with more in the future).

The utility features of this synth make it pretty useful for playing with other synths (like the Werkstatt). For more inspiration check out the Patching with Intention patch book for the Mavis, and the Mavis Exploration Patch Book by Lisa Bella Donna.

[Zipper] I bought a Moog Subsequent 25 synth to see how I liked it. I am a guitar/bass player who enjoy playing classic and progressive rock like Zeppelin, Rush, Yes, etc. I really wanted something that I could use to get the tones for those earlier Rush albums.

After playing the Subsequent 25 and loving it, I decided to get a Subsequent 37 as I needed at least one more octave for certain songs. It did not disappoint. There are way more presets on the Subsequent 37 and most are great as is.

Well worth it.

[9.69 lb] The Moog SR case fits like a tight glove, very well built, great for carrying the Minimoog around town for gigs and rehearsals!

[Black] This is my first Analog synth, and I am blown away. The quality of the sounds is amazing. The smoothness of the controls and the tactile pleasure of the knobs is glorious. I have already found it very inspirational. It's great looking, too!

[Zipper] Amazing little big Moog Sound! Really analog sound for great bass. Huge sound; small footprint; classic Moog tones.

[Zipper] After a very long time away from analog synths, this was a great step back that brought many flashbacks. Includes easy to follow documentation to assemble, set up and start playing in no time.

[9.69 lb] sounds beautiful, like whale
farts – won’t drone
w/o 5V Gate or MIDI ON message (most will use MIDI keyboard or sequencer to play, although Doepfer A-119 can be a great controller/interface as well, for feeding and Gating w/ external audio).
accompanying literature is good.
as other's have said elsewhere, some indication of presets would be nice. Overall, excellent sounding synth.
Oh ya, heads up, this is MONOphonic, so if you want to play chords, send them in the AC input.
peace

[Zipper] I love this synthesizer! It is Moog's updated version of the Sub Phatty, which now has 2-note paraphony, making it even better. I also love its simplicity. It allows you to create custom sounds and save them as presets. The synth has 16 presets installed and lets you download many other presets through the included editor software.
If you're looking for a bare-bones synth that will allow you to learn the basics of subtractive synthesis and have that classic Moog sound, this is your lucky day. Get it! You won't regret it.

[Zipper] Great sound from a single oscillator - you can add a Moog Werkstatt for an inexpensive second osc, or buy a second (or third) Mother 32 to really expand the possibilities.Of course you can use this as a gateway into Eurorack modular, but be careful, that is a bottomless hole from which you will never escape :) Not criticisms, but: The patchbay can be confusing if you are not paying attention - the legends appear above the jacks - in the moment it is easy to forget as the jacks are so close. However, it is great having the jacks off to the side, as complicated patches don't hide the controls under a tangle of wires. The sequencer is great, but definitely has a learning curve, with a few combo key presses needed. I find that if I leave it for a few days, I have to refer back to the excellent manual.

[25 Keys] This was my first synth ever. I purchased it because it had knob-per-function controls for the most important parameters. I'm happy to say that it's been a fantastic journey learning about synthesis, and doing it on the Moog Sub 25. It's straight and to the point without being overwhelming. The sounds are incredible from super fat bass lines to piercing leads. Use the duophonic feature to hold a drone note and solo with the second oscillator. It's just a beautiful machine. The design, the wooden end cheeks, the curves on the back panel. Again, it's just a beautiful machine. It will forever be compared to its bigger brother the 37. The big guy has the arpeggiator and step sequencer, expanded memory banks, aftertouch, and the extra octave. But it's also $700 more. If you want all the tone and can sacrifice a couple of bells and whistles, grab this sub 25 and get groovin.
