Moog WERKSTATT-EXP-01 Overview

The limited-edition Moog Werkstatt-01 is a patchable synthesizer kit based on classic Moog circuitry that provides the ability to study the analog circuits while creating a single oscillator synthesizer. The kit is easily assembled without the need for any soldering skills.

The finished product gives you a single voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) with frequency control and the option to use either a saw or square waveshape. You can then manipulate your tone via the 4-pole Moog Ladder Filter, LFO, VCF-modulation, VCO-modulation, and adjustable-Envelope sections. The built-in 1-octave low-note priority legato keyboard features glide control for a variety of playing options.

The kit also includes the CV expander, which converts the Werkstatt's 20-pin patchable expansion header to twelve grounded 3.5mm TS jacks, allowing the instrument to easily interface with external CV-equipped analog equipment. The Werkstatt-01 has been updated to include a dedicated Gate In jack.

Note:
This limited-edition kit requires assembly and is only available through 2020.
Updated design of the highly sought-after 2014 Moogfest Engineering Workshop instrument featuring a dedicated gate-in jack
The Moog sound at an affordable price
100% analog circuit, no A/D conversion
3.5mm Expander included. Connect to other synthesizers and samplers
Simple front panel for immediate use and understanding
