5QUICK START
This section of the manual will allow you to learn the general principles of how the Moog Modular V works. This will be a presentation of the different views available, the modules and signals used while using the program for the first time. You will find a detailed and precise description of all of the modules and controllers visible on the screen in the following chapters.
The Sound Design chapter located in the second half of this manual is also recommended for users who have never used a modular system before, and who wish to learn the fundamentals of this domain.
5.1THE 4 SECTIONS OF THE MOOG MODULAR V
The Moog Modular V is made up of four distinct sections:
The first at the top holds a sequencer and a certain number of effects.
The second, underneath, is for working on the sound synthesis with the different inter- connectable modules.
The third is an extension allowing us to regroup the different external
The fourth holds the virtual keyboard, as well as a section dedicated to the key follows and essential controllers.
It is possible to keep only the fourth section on the screen, by clicking on the Keyb icon on the toolbar.
When the whole synthesizer is displayed, we can move it vertically by using the icons that represent the different views or by clicking and dragging the background.
5.1.1The synthesis section
Visible as soon as the synthesizer is opened, it is made up of two parts (cabinets). It integrates the 33 modules necessary for the creation of sounds. The modules in the upper part can be exchanged via the menu that appears when their name has been clicked. It is thus possible to replace an envelope with a ring modulator, a filter with a frequency translator.
