Mavis Goes Electro: New Video Showcases Sonic Range of Moog’s Eurorack-Friendly Monosynth (Now $299)
“Hivemind II” spotlights Moog’s semi-modular Mavis as a powerful sound design tool. This new video from Moog captures the variety of tones and textures the 44HP analog synthesizer is capable of producing on its own and as part of an interconnected system.
“Hivemind II” continues a growing series from Moog that showcases a single instrument producing all leads, pads, bass, and percussive sounds that come together to build a complete track.
In this exploration of sound design, composition, and video synthesis, electronic music producer and Moog Product Strategist Max Ravitz (a.k.a. Patricia) combines eight Mavis synthesizers in a dynamic audiovisual performance.
Each Mavis in this setup provides a different element in the song, ranging from wave-folded kick drums to 808-inspired cymbals and double-VCO basses to folding leads. All eight Mavis synthesizers in this performance are sequenced by the Winter Modular Eloquencer with a touch of delay provided by the OTO Machines BIM and the Chase Bliss x Meris CXM 1978 reverb, adding a bit of dimension to the mix.
