Like we want to buy antiquated emulated synthesis of some piece of trash its sad they keep pushing this garbage and people keep lapping it up like they are stoked to have something they could do with keygroups oscillators and some fx chains. Akai is repeatedly making garbage now look at stage piano.. what an epic pile of dung.

And i mean like.. look WHO is saying this.. i am a major fan of innusics shit clearly but these plugins they are creating are pure shit. Visually, memory footprint wise, processor wise...

Also for the record and i dont care who see's this **** THE MOOG MINI D ITS AN ANTIQUATED PIECE OF OVERPRICED SHIT, and anyone still buying one in 2022 is throwing money down the toilet.... We are well past that. Infact **** MOOG. Moog is runnin off their old clot long time now and its not bangin anymore... its not 1970 anymore thats a 50 year old primitive designed mono synth.. **** use bassline..


Finally someone said it! And while we're on that topic, why are people still buying **** guitars, that **** was invented ages ago! And did you know that the Zildjan company was founded it 1623 and people are still buying their cymbals! to this **** day! I mean come on! ****, seriously. They're selling the same **** crap for over half a millennium! And don't get me started on singing, that **** is so antiquated, you to be a **** to **** **** **** ***** *** * ** * * *** ** * *. Really, I mean it.

That felt good getting that off my chest, back to browsing Mini D presets :-D


I just love this. When I said the EXACT SAME THING about MOOG 2 years ago on a forum, I was ostracized! I then had the audacity to point out to some other chumps the only way to spot a genuine Gibson LP was the fact it was ALWAYS out of tune... I have this awesome white guitar that cost a fraction of a LP, always in tune, taken abuse by my kids and a pure pleasure of a fret-board. Well, then I suppose everyone knows it is not a LP. The reason, it is always in tune... Go figure!

LOL Moog IS the Gibson of the synth world hah. Still rehashing the same shit since the 70s, no innovation whatsoever. Just cashing in on people that have no experience elsewhere and think the MiniMoog is the be all end all of synths. Roland/Oberheim/Sequential any day over the boring played out MiniMoog.

Imagine a world without Eric Sermon, Redman, Dr Dre, Snoop, J-Dilla?

Ya'll sound like some P-Funk, R&B/Classic Soul haters. If it was not for MOOG American music you nerds would probably be mosh pit DnB warblin people into a dystopian techno drone world. Rest up fellas. You'll get your MPC Waldorf plugin sound next.

Bow down and prepare for the next wave we give you to sine about. - #bars #whine #sine



i did this with Moog/ Bernie/ George/ Ohio Players/ Thomas Dolby in mind. Love my style don't you! :smoker:

I don't understand the negativity towards the mini D plug in, if you dont like it or consider it old hat, simply don't buy it, yes there are plenty of other ways of introducing the Moog sound into the Akai platform most notably by sampling past classic gear but again its how to utilise this MPC environment and bringing together many types of plug in emulations, to give the user a simplified single operating system that gives you all the sound sources you'll ever need i have a lot of hardware gear to date if i could have a plug in that emulated all the hardware synths i own, that would be a great workflow enhancement for me within this MPC shell,I have longed for a studio whereby I could consolidate(without constant sampling of my synths)all the great sounds from these synths but its impossible and time consuming to do so and i dont want to rely on software inside a laptop to give me access to every VST emulation,I welcome the MPC standalone platform to allow this, bolted together with the great MPC sequencer workflow(again removing the need for my MPC4K and a tonne of hardware synths

The OP4 is simply rebuilding upon old FM technology thats been around for decades....who wants another DX7?????? but haven't heard anyone complain its old rehashed tech???? having another plug in capable of emulating the classics is expanding the MPC platform to allow, certainly in my case remove a lot of hardware synths and introduce all of those interfaces into a single platform,something i have always wanted in a hardware workstation that is the hub of my studio,At Least Akai are taking the right steps to do this, are you listening Korg/Roland???

I've had a Minimoog in the past and also the Voyager,sold them on like everything its great at the time but you evolve and move on, but there are times when i think It would be nice to have access to those sounds again without forking out a small fortune for the hardware bang...Along comes the Mini D :nod:

I've purchased the Mini D for my MPC key and its great to have access to those types of sounds again allowing me to replicate the sounds I used in past Songs,again I have sampled a lot of the sounds from the Old hardware to minimise the amount of gear i need so I welcome this Plug in,I see the £79 as a giveaway for what would cost me 30 times more to get hold of a hardware voyager again, but don't want another expensive hardware Dinosaur piece for the sake of nostalgia the Mini D is just the job.Thanks Akai/Air

Subharmonicon seems a different machine from their past, even looking at eurorack, I'm not seeing any modules that do that. Mavis uses wave folding, which isn't very moogish (East vs West). I don't think Moog are standing still, Their range goes from small affordable semi modular to beasts.

I wouldn't say they are stuck in the past and only rehashing

DFAM and Subharmonicon are two I'd love to have (Behringer...cough)

I’m using MPC X and MPC Keys61, 2.11.6 same prob on both.

By Lampdog Sun Oct 30, 2022 5:03 am


For now, ios model d and mini d got me where I wanna be. Flavor is ridiculous widdit too. I’m very happy with both.

Question, in TRACK VIEW I’m unable to set the volume of mini d, it ignores the volume. Every other program whether drum, keygroup, whatever, they all follow track volume. Mini D has it’s own mind and ignores TRACK view volume. Anyone else experienced that?
