By todays standards, on paper, the Mini looks like nothing to get excited about, being monophonic and lacking in most of the features we now take for granted in any analogue synth - real or virtual.
Arturia Minimoog Vst Software Revivals OfNonetheless, its powerful, rich sound has more than stood the test of time, keeping second-hand prices sky high, and inspiring several developers to build software revivals of it.Here are six of the best Minimoog emulations on the market, starting with Monark, a state-of-the-art reboot from Native Instruments. For a complete guide to Monark, check out Computer Music 218 (July 2015), which is on sale now. The developers were so focused on authenticity that Monark makes few concessions to modern standards - theres no polyphony, no pulse width modulation, no dedicated LFOs and certainly no effects, for example. You do at least get a few extra filter modes and the ability to shift the global tuning up and down, but the point is that Monark not only captures the sound of the original synth, but also its workflow, feel and - yes limitations. It sounds terrific, too, serving up a solid reimagining of the Minimoog Model D and including over 6000 presets.

With its simple control set and 32-strong roster of effects, its a very different beast indeed to Monark, but at this price, its a strong contender for those in need of mix-ready sounds.

Like Minimonsta, this one extends the capabilities of the real thing significantly, adding polyphony, a mod matrix, a formant filter, an arpeggiator, effects, its own parameter automation system and more. Its a brilliant soft synth, particularly when partnered with its mobile iPad couterpart, iMini, from and to which it can import and export patches.
