    I love those moments where you enter in some unusual chord for the arp, and then quickly rush to the controls to change something drastic and shift the tone. It's just that rolling with the mistakes but between the notes being played and the sound of the synth itself, I love it.

      @@necronorris Moog Sound Studio 1 was my second synth purchase and first Moog. It is most definitely worth it if you're looking for semi-modular goodness/exploration and love that Moog sound. Mother-32 has a very powerful sequencer and it's got many different uses thanks to the patch bay. DFAM really takes the cake though. It really comes alive when constantly tweaked and played. Either way, I would seriously recommend it to anybody, especially anybody looking to jump into synthesis.
