help Arturia MiniMoog Model D FAQ
Is Arturia MiniMoog Model D a hardware synthesizer?
Arturia's product is called Mini V, an enhanced software emulation of the classic Minimoog, while the physical Minimoog Model D is made by Moog Music. The catalog title appears to combine those two names, so check whether you are buying a plug-in or a 44-key hardware instrument.
What can Arturia Mini V make?
Mini V models the three-oscillator Minimoog signal path and is aimed at basses, leads and pads. Arturia lists up to 6-voice polyphony, a ladder filter, an arpeggiator and more than 160 factory presets.
Does Mini V run on Windows and Mac?
Arturia lists Mini V for Windows 10 or later and macOS 11 or later, with standalone and plug-in formats such as VST, AAX and Audio Unit. It requires 64-bit DAWs for plug-in use, so check the host before installing.
How is Mini V different from the real Moog Model D?
The real Moog instrument is a monophonic analog synthesizer with 44 full-size keys, while Mini V is software that emulates its sound and controls. Mini V adds modern features such as effects, modulation and adjustable polyphony, so it is more portable but not the same physical circuit.
