  1. 5/5Perfect for those who are looking to start an understanding of adventure in synthesis

    A perfect launch seed for those contemplating entering the world of analog / digital synthesis and the beauty of sound. I find it a great start for those who are beginning or even intermediate levels. The fact that I myself have synesthesia , which is where the brain associates sound with color and or numbers etc… these color orbs are a blessing. I’m a seasoned ARP and basically all Moog synth auteur. This is already a lovely free app that allows me to choose my own add one which I will start my scapes of my own city. I look forward to really championing this app and pleasing the creators. I am really looking forward to tomorrow now..

  2. 5/5Update below: Back to Five⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️’s

    I don’t know if this might solve the freezing issue that many have experienced lately with AnimoogZ but it has worked for me in regard to the issue and has not, for far, returned. I disabled Apple Intelligence & Siri from learning from the app. You can find this feature in settings, so AnimoogZ is back up to a five star rating, But it would be even better if there were a haptic feature to the AnimoogZ. Keyboards are also percussive instruments and that is something that is missing in Animoog. Haptics would help in providing that feeling. Updated from Except for the keyboard, the controls no longer responds to touch. A few moments after opening the app the controls ie: ENV/LFO, MOD EFFECTS, ORBS, PITCH & MOD WHEELS cannot be used. SCALE ARP ATTACK SUSTAIN DECAY etc cannot be accessed. This is on a 5th gen iPad Pro running iPadOS 18.2.1. Animoog has been a great creation and innovative in its design & growth and the developers have been generous in making it available to the public. I’ve been with them from the very beginning. I just hope this is just a glitch with the latest OS update (works fine on my iPhone 13Pro) and will be corrected in the next update. Update: Still waiting for an update or a fix from the developers concerning the freezing issue the has affected the function of animoog z. It’s been going on for a few months now but there hasn’t been any words regarding it. I’m sure I’m not the only customer that’s been affected.

  3. 5/5Shines On Its Own 🔆🔅

    Love how tha visually live capabilities of this standout synthesizer breaks tha rules of how even math books are written! Huh? Yeah, it’s like math u gender stricken complex of mind, body, & spirit! (Tempo Change) U don’ts gotta know what you’re doing, yous just gotta do it. Follow tha steps & you’ll see how your signal’s taking a breath. (Pause for Breath) This Professional-Class Synth, with its technically advanced settings & control, allows for going from a single tone or waveform set in monophonic to hyper creative, mind expanding layers & pathways sittin thin, fat or sideways, coloured at all, raw, processed or organic. Add in tha MOD Matrix and u can automate this here with that there giving your imagination an almost tied run for its ability to envision. Math books are written with a boring, dull & drawn out distortion designed and standardised to sift “smart” “stupid”. Tha audio/visual Marriage of this synth is like if math books were actually written to educate. lol U are divine and this Moog Synth shines on Earth as it is in Heaven like reflecting tha signal process with a stupid intelligent insight visually!

  4. 5/5True Innovation

    It’s a genuinely unique synthesis paradigm. It looks alien, but it’s only a wavetable scanner. The special bit is that you get 8 wavetables at once in a crossfading matrix. It’ll take a day or two to really get it in your head that the 3D display is just 3 extra LFOs and a double joystick, but the architecture is surprisingly intuitive and easy to leverage. This might make it more suitable for warm, wavering vintage-style sounds than any other wavetable synth while remaining powerful in more modern applications. Polyphonic modulation is especially strong, and everything between “alive” and “unhinged” is on tap here. It’s not perfect. My main complaints are for limited mod destinations which do not include the amp envelope, and a lack of meaningful labeling/feedback on the vector grid and time functions. A lot of feeling things out, which makes it seem organic but also a little stiff and abstract when banging out intentional ideas. The soft keyboard cannot be hidden, which makes it awkward as a plugin and spoils an overall frictionless interface on small screens. Overall straightforward, impressively practical, fun, and in a subclass of its own.

  5. 4/5A Good Upgrade

    Basically the "Z" model is the same as the original AniMoog. Some features are improved (the mod matrix, for example), while others are essentially the same (some of the effects, the scale programmer, etc.). The workflow is better after shelving the skewmorphic modular synthesizer look and feel of the original, where you had to scroll among "modules" to gain access to them. The Z axis does add some new wave table capabilities. But over all it is not fundamentally different from the original. The price is fair for what it is and the sound quality is very good. Having said all of that, I have never been a big fan of the sound of the Animoog. It sounds very digital and most of the waves in the catalog sound far too similar. I prefer more analog sound qualities to the sterile sound of digital waves. But for those pieces when you want that digital sound, the AniMoog really excels. Very complex wave-shifting is easy and sounds more alive than standard, static waves. Importing waves and preset from AniMoog is easy breezy. I really miss the 4-track recorder, though. Perhaps Moog can bring that back in a future update. So while Animoog Z is not a major new product or even a giant improvement over the previous Animoog, I am still happy I bought it. Its really fun to just experiment with. Its easily worth the price.
