Moog Werkstatt 01 Kit Synthesiser Overview
Moog Werkstatt 01 Kit Synth Overview By GAK.
Originally released as a special for workshop attendees of a VIP workshop at MOOGFEST 2014, demand for this diminutive synth was such that MOOG brought Werkstatt into production for everyone. A single oscillator semi modular synth with a fully analogue signal path and not much bigger than a VHS cassette this little baby has sonic potential that makes Werkstatt a serious contender for the beginner and the Pro alike. Featuring a miniature 20 point CV patch bay (expandable to jack connectors with the MOOG Werkstatt CV expander), Moog's classic four pole ladder filter with resonance, Werkstatt gives the project musician access to that hallowed MOOG signature sound! Expandable, moddable, transportable, essential!

- The Werkstatt-Ø1: Moogfest 2014 Kit is a patchable and compact, one oscillator analog synthesizer. It was originally created as a kit, to be the foundation for exclusive "Engineering VIP" workshops at Moogfest 2014. Due to a number of requests, Moog is offering a no-soldering-required version of the Werkstatt-Ø1: Moogfest 2014 Kit in limited quantities, at select US dealers only. Assembly is extremely simple: Any user can quickly build an analog synthesizer based on classic Moog circuits, and if desired, study the analog circuits. Werkstatt was created to be an educational tool, but it is also a formidable, compact analog synthesizer from Moog.
