To help celebrate the return of our beloved hardware Model D, the Will Gregory Moog Ensemble performs with a collection of 10(!) vintage and modern Minimoog Model D synthesizers. Utilizing MIDI integration for the 2016 and 2022 Model D reissues and MIDI-to-CV converters for the 1970s-era units in this performance, the Moog Ensemble highlights the instrument’s modern features alongside its classic sound. According to the group’s musical director and composer, Will Gregory, “the MIDI aspect of these instruments enables us to open polyrhythmic possibilities between the 10 parts that would be beyond humans to reproduce otherwise. Our hands become free for sound sculpting as we perform by manipulating the filter, resonance, modulation, and envelope controls in pairs.”
