Description

Designed by Moog Music, the world’s first synth company, Animoog Z is an inspiring 16-voice polyphonic synthesizer that invites you to explore new concepts of multidimensional sound design and performance.

Powered by Moog’s Anisotropic Synth Engine (ASE), Animoog Z empowers you to visually traverse new sonic universes and even create your own! ASE utilizes a novel orbit system to expand the concepts of wavetable and vector synthesis, allowing you to navigate dynamically through the X, Y, and Z axes of sound. Spontaneous sound design with Animoog Z is easy—simply select and drag the orbit path to explore endless sonic configurations.

Animoog Z captures the immediate and intuitive experience of Moog synthesizers and applies it to the modern digital paradigm, enabling you to quickly sculpt incredibly fluid sounds that live, breathe, and evolve as you play. Use Animoog Z’s built-in keyboard to control pitch and pressure per voice (or send MIDI out), or connect your favorite MPE controller and explore Animoog Z’s MPE-compliant sound engine.

Animoog’s diverse library of timbres includes digital tones and spectral sources alongside analog waveforms recorded from classic Moog circuits. If you ever run out of sounds, you can use the built-in Timbre Editor to record and edit your own timbres!

Visually captivating and sonically immersive, Animoog Z brings music production to the next level. Whether you are new to synthesis or a professional musician, Animoog’s unique user interface gives you the power to easily create a visually vibrant and sonically rich universe.

Key Features:

• Multiplatform Experience: Share presets, timbres, and in-app purchases across your compatible Apple devices.

• Anisotropic Synth Engine (ASE): An exciting Moog technology that allows you to move through the X, Y, and Z axes of unique timbres to create an expressive and constantly evolving soundscape. Sonic modulations are visualized in real time, providing a multisensory feedback mechanism for sound creation.

• Polyphonic Modulation and Pitch Shifting: Control Animoog Z's advanced touch surface keyboard with configurable scales, key distances, pitch correction, and glide. Simply slide your fingers to control multiple per-voice parameters in Animoog Z right from the keys.

• Timbre Editor: Go beyond simple sample playback and build unique sounds that evolve in multi-dimensional space. Select from a wide variety of built-in timbres or customize your sound by recording your own timbres (or import your own WAV files).

• ENV/LFO Page: Articulate your dynamics with 3 independent six-stage DAHDSR envelopes for Amp, Filter, and Mod, each with loop and sync functionality. Give motion to your sound with 3 independent LFOs featuring continuously variable wave shapes, phase offset, delayed start, sync, and support for 1-8 repeats.

• MOD Page: Highly flexible modulation matrix with 10 lanes and a multitude of sources, controllers, and destinations—including global destinations like Delay and Thick. Use the Solo and Enable controls to explore complex modulations layer by layer.

• Effects Page: A collection of dynamic sound-altering and sound-augmenting effects with Delay, Chorus, Bitcrush, Filter, Arpeggiator, and Looper. Oscilloscope-style views display the output and impact of your effects.

• MIDI: Use your favorite MIDI controller to control Animoog Z (with full support for MPE input) or go MIDI out to use Animoog Z's highly expressive keyboard to control your favorite instruments. Go even deeper with Animoog Z's exhaustive MIDI CC mapping system featuring MIDI Learn, multiple destinations for a single CC, and detailed control of which presets are loaded with program change.

• Additional Features: Backwards compatibility with presets and timbres from the original Animoog, AUv3 support, 440Hz base frequency offset (+/- 10Hz), preset tagging, preset sharing, Global BPM, Tap Tempo, Ableton Link, keyboard typing and shortcuts, random presets, and undo/redo.

Feeling ripped off

brad2008au on

I had the predecessor and purchase the addons/sound banks that go with it and then they released this new version and the sound banks that I have purchased are unable to be used within it. Animoog is almost unusable now on my iPad M1 12.9'. I definitely won't be making any in app purchases again. I just don't trust them to continue supporting the app and the inability to use previously purchased sound banks within this new version just leaves a bad taste in one's mouth.

I'm not buying any of the presets this time

I'm not buying any of the presets this time. I got the original Animoog for which I purchased many of the add on packs but now I find that they can't be used in this version.

Its a pity my Animoog Presets cant be used by its successor

Disappointing!

Wireframes Extension Rip Off

pooderdown on

$8.00 Bucks for only 4 Wireframe presets ?… I cant decide if it’s highway robbery or a total rip off… DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

lost in music

I love this app - as a longtime fan of the original Animoog app, I was a little wary of yet another app “upgrade” (having been so disappointed many times before by other developers’ attempts to “improve” an existing app), but my concerns were unfounded. The only thing missing is the 4-track recorder from Animoog, but with inter-app audio and VST AU functionality, maybe Moog felt it wasn’t needed.

Oh Moog, I love you so.

Decades ago, I met some of your hardware while I was doing work experience in a Radio Station. They had a studio B, with a bunch of old analog gear set up, and I don’t remember what it was that I played with at the time, but I remember the name. From day one, which happened decades before I stumbled across this equipment in this dingy little room Moog have defined their own sound. You can just tell when you hear it. You know it’s a Moog filter. You know that warmth that every other synth box tried to replicate but didn’t get quite right. Back in those days, owning a tablet device that ran new synthesisers made by Moog were a black magic concept. Instead, it was a common belief that by 2020 we’d all be in hover cars. But it’s happened. You can run new and old Moog synths portably on a tablet you can hold in your hand, and you can just tell it’s Moog. Even virtually, their work is the benchmark of excellence. Love your work.

Great Sound

StLucia jams on

Nice thick moving sounds from this app. Only niggle is its a little heavy on cpu compared to say the Synthamasters, but similar to Bleass Megalit. Doesn't my Mac M1 but shows a bit on my ipad air. If your after a "motion" kind of sound this definitly has something to offer.

Pretty awesome - but user presets need fixing

StLucia jams on

An amazing thick sounding synth. But as a plug-in it doesn’t allow access to user presets, only factory sounds. AUM reports it needs an update. So unfortunate if you want to tweak & save custom sounds. Works ok as a free-standing app.

Awesome

Best synthesizer ever! Thanks Moog!

This was Science Fiction back in the 80s

hpela on

Just a positive review concerning price. I have just downloaded free version … there is enough inspiration here ..and timbre variation in my AirPods that a young me could of even dreamed of … running through a silent lightweight machine that I can hold in my hand whilst having a coffee. This just a few decades ago would have been black magic. Rewind to 1980. Yeah Joe you heard right .. I just bought a Moog Synth that I can hold in my hand …
