    In the Filter FM patch in the video I say you should patch MULT 1 into the LFO RATE INPUT (which is correct) but, since it was late in the session I guess?... I plugged MULT 1 into the LFO OUTPUT, and you shouldn't really do that... though apparently, Mavis didn't explode. It still sounds good which is why I didn't notice it, but you should do as I say and not as I do... thanks ‪@wavrekordz‬ for pointing this out

Indeed, Behringer Neutron arguably does more than Mavis (and the upcoming Proton will definitively do more) for $350 and they're considered "budget synths" pretty universally in my experience.

      @@pooshNchums Sure! Although I never owned them both at the same time to compare directly side by side, I just clicked with the Mavis a lot better. I imagine the oscillators and filter shouldn't be any different, so aside from the wavefolder, some differences that mattered to me for crafting sounds are having the full ADSR vs AD/ASD and being able to blend modulation between the EG and LFO. Also, it could just be calibration of the units I had, but I found the LFO tracking on the Mavis to be better for creating dual oscillator sounds. Throw in the fact that it's significantly smaller and costs much less... I don't see any reason to get the M-32 unless you absolutely need MIDI or the sequencing.

I would not be surprised if we see a few more models in this new 44 hp size. An effects unit with an analog delay, tremolo, phaser, ring mod would be great, for example.

    This looks great. The Moog Werkstatt-01 can be had new for about $150. With the Mavis starting at $350, I suspect there is a bit of the Moog tax built in. That said, this is a pretty unique synth. The closest I can think of sonically would be the Make Noise 0-Coast.
    Pairing the Mavis with something like the Make Noise Strega might make for some interesting experimental analog sounds. (Hopefully that makes sense because the Strega is really the perfect companion to the 0-Coast which is similar to the Mavis).

    Another great review, Ziv. Although it's a nice sounding, interesting synth I feel like $250 is a more appropriate price point than $350. I fully support American manufacturing, but the truth is that probably 95+% of the components of this synth was made in China, even if maybe it was boxed in Asheville. There's just so much competition on the market these days (not to mention what can be had for $350 used) I honestly don't know why anyone would buy the Mavis except for the Moog brand name. It's like one tiny step up from a Volca, but 2-3x the price. Moog can do better.

I invested into Model D reissue with the excuse there is 3 of them LOL).
      Though Mavis unlike other Moogs has a wavefolding, which is different. But when you look closer - you cannot control wavefolding with CV, beats me why). So skipped on Mavis (and I also have Buchla 208C with wavefolding as a core function).

    • @johnmiddleton4291
      @johnmiddleton4291 2 года назад

      The werkstatt was created for the engineer workshop at moogfest originally and was intended just for that purpose. People online requested a general release to the public, and Moog complied. I don't think it was ever intended to be more than a really simple introduction.
      The original moogfest version also had lots of through hole construction that required soldering as part of the workshop. I do wish that aspect had been kept in the production version, though I can understand Moog not wanting to deal with the support tickets that would generate.

    Thanks for the run-down! Excellent as usual. When you observed that the S&H gave an inverted output... is it possible that the rates were aligned in such a way as to make the circuit progress backwards through the VCO's phase? That would result in an apparently inverted sawtooth...

    Nice video! Always very detailed. I was just wondering... It has KB CV out but no gates? Does it mean we can only send CV or is there a trick to get some gate out if we want to control another module. Thx!

    • @loopop
      @loopop  2 года назад +1

      Thanks! If you don't want to use the internal envelope you could just use the EG OUT as gate with attack set to zero, sustain 100% etc.

      I love that Behringer makes decent gear at a great price. Otherwise, I'd never afford to get my hands on something like a Model D or 2600. On the other hand, it does turn into a race to the bottom, where innovators of new gear are under pressure to compete against the low prices. (I'm guilty of this myself in commenting earlier that I wish it cost less...) Regardless, I've been really excited to see so much semi-modular gear coming out over the past several years!

    This synth looks awesome! Trying to get my head around the sequencing capabilities though. I generally sequence via ableton or via my digitakt. My understanding though is that neither of those options would work for this synth. Have I got that right?

    • @loopop

      True - you've need some sort of MIDI to CV device/module/interface/keyboard to sequence Mavis with Digitakt or a computer

      @freddiefranklin1 2 года назад

      @@loopop thanks for replying! Hmmm I'm wondering if it would be too much of a change in workflow for me right now then. Would you see it fitting in well to a set up without a sequencer? I'm ideally looking for something a bit more unusual to the classic subtractive mono/poly hardware synth as I have that covered in my current set up. Was thinking Mavis or the West Pest would fit the bill perfectly so maybe West Pest is a good option for where my set up is now

      Don't think there's a clock input (no sequencer) but you could patch an external sequencer into the CV/gate inputs. There are outputs for the keyboard pitch and envelope so yeah, using the keyboard to play other gear should be possible.
