Very nicely crafted software. Has all the feel and tone of the MiniMoogs I remember from my past!
Now add direct numerical input for all values as well as the nice knobs. Very critical for re-creating patches already known and increasing accuracy of adjustments and spped of doing so!K. Kirkevold

Midi CC control
Fantastic sounding but impossible to control with midi CC. This is 2023, how come a brand like Universal Audio does not provide such an obvious feature ?

Best Minimoog Emulation out there
As a user of all of the Moog emulations on the market and some real Moog hardware I am very impressed with UAD's offering. The oscillators and sounds have just that little extra depth and give it the edge over the others. Well done UAD!
