“The sub 37 is my go-to synth, even after buying other more expensive ones. I would like to stress that the Moog is not even a synth for me anymore but a full Instrument that wants to be played.

Playing the synth is one big part of the course: creating melodies that fade into bass lines, noise sweeps that merge into pads, and chord layers consisting of different Moog patches. With the Moog it is more than just creating one stable patch. I think this is why analog beats digital. Moving both your hands fast between real knobs without any mapping limitations.

I will give you a proper introduction to the Sub37 in the course. If you know subtractive synths already, you can simply skip to the productivity gems ;).”

Well, the Moog is ONE subtractive synth of many out there working with the concept of subtractive synthesis too. This course uses the Moog as a medium to show you workflow boosts, patching tips and tricks, and compositional inspiration.

Of course, it’s easier if you have a Sub37 but really any synth with similar capabilities will work out. But you can adapt almost every concept from the class and put to use with u-he Diva for example.

Up and foremost this course wants to show you how fast and easy you can sound like YOURSELF (or anyone else, if you want to ;p).
