| | Moog synthesizers were widely used by professional musicians and the “Sound of the Moog” became an integral part of our musical culture. | | | Here at the beginning of the 21st century Moog Music is still producing the quality tools to create music that could not otherwise exist without them, making instruments so unique that they represent a genre of their own: Moog Music. | | | Bob reclaimed the right to use the MOOG MUSIC and MINIMOOG trademarks in 2002, and immediately changed the name of Big Briar to Moog Music Inc.

| | Review - Original Film Soundtrack: Moog |
| | Overall, the soundtrack is an excellent introduction to the Moog synthesizer in contemporary music. | | | The second disc captures a few classics performed on the Moog, such as Gary Numan's "Cars," Devo's "Mongoloid," and the more obscure Jean-Jacques Perrey's "E.V.A." Moog classic rarities are more fully explored on The Best of Moog from Loud Records (1999); on this recording, the focus is on contemporary uses of the Moog synthesizer. | | | The soundtrack celebrates Robert Moog's impact on modern music. |

| | When Moog (rhymes with "vogue") unveiled the Moog music synthesizer in 1965, his engineering skills combined with a bit of business luck to radically change the way music was made. | | | The sound was monophonic -- one note at a time -- but that was enough, since studio recording techniques could create whole orchestras from single notes by the late 1960s. | | | The machine made sounds by manipulating electrical waves to denote timbre, pitch and volume. |

| | First of all, you have to be a musician in order to make music with a synthesizer. | | | To me the synthesizer was always a source of new sounds that musicians could use to expand the range of possibilities for making music. | | | I think that these experiments affected the design of synthesizers, and the synthesizers encouraged musicians to further explore the capabilities of traditional acoustic instruments. |
