Model D (2022 Edition - Mahogany)

First built in the early 1970s, this icon powered some of the fattest basslines and leads in rock, funk, and electronic music, from Kraftwerk to Parliament. The 2022 mahogany edition revives that exact analog soul with a few thoughtful upgrades for today's studios.

At its core are three vintage-style Moog VCOs delivering sawtooth, triangle, square, and pulse waveforms, mixable with pink/white noise and external audio input for thick, harmonically rich tones. The legendary 24dB/octave ladder low-pass filter shapes everything with that warm, musical sweep, controlled by dual ADSR envelopes for amplitude and cutoff, plus an analog LFO with triangle and square waves. Play it via a 44-note Fatar keybed spanning F0 to C4 with velocity sensitivity, aftertouch, spring action, pitch/mod wheels, and user-selectable note priority. Modern touches include MIDI In/Out/Thru, extensive CV/Gate I/O (pitch, filter, osc pitch, mod, etc.), internal feedback mod, and outputs for mono audio plus headphones, all housed in a sturdy 32-pound mahogany cabinet measuring about 28.6 x 17.3 x 5.6 inches.

Players love how it nails the original's organic growl while integrating effortlessly into DAWs or modular rigs—community buzz highlights the keybed's responsiveness and the filter's irreplaceable bite, though some note its monophonic nature keeps it focused on leads and basses rather than chords.
