Arturia Minimoog-V Original Will Be Free on June 21
One door closes, and another opens.
Arturia marks the end of an era with a Moog gift on World Music Day.
The French music software and hardware company Arturia has announced the end of an agreement with Moog Music, which will result in its Moog Modular V and Minimoog V soft synths soon re-emerging as the updated and renamed Modular V and Mini-V.
Arturia is marking the occasion by giving away a one-off “commemorative” edition of the Minimoog-V on World Music Day. So on June 21 only, musicians everywhere will be able to download Minimoog-V Original from the Arturia website for free.
Minimoog-V Original includes all the sounds (more than 1,000 presets created by artists and sound designers) and features 32-voice polyphony, plus much more from the latest Minimoog-V update (Version 2.5), but without the additional functionality accessible behind the “hinged” front panel — just like the original Minimoog.
Arturia Minimoog V currently appears to be available from online stores for $179-199.
