Moog Murf

Post by Mr Mustache »

I know Hurbs got a Moog but does anyone have/ Had a Murf? I really like the sound clips on the Moog Website, it so cool sounding when in Stereo.

anyone tried one? any opinions?

i maybe trading my DMM and Epihone Strat for a Murf with power supply and expression pedal.

Took me a good minute to find the fucking sample buttons, crap website layout f'real.

Sounds pretty neat- an awful lot of scratch for a pedal though..

yeah that site does suck pretty bad.

scratch as in Moneyz? yeah i wouldn't pay almost 500 bucks for a pedal, hell no, but i'll trade my $250 DMM and a $90 strat for a $450 pedal with a power supply and $40 expression pedal!

it's got some cool sounds but i think i'd rather have that new FreqBox. that was awesome.

The Murf sounds good, but from what I heard is incredibly hard to get a practical use out of. I'd definitely go for the FreqBox, shit sounds sick. I wanna get one eventually.

yeah it does. i think i'm gonna stick with the murf for a while and maybe try to get an even trade on the FreqBox when it comes out.

Murf-$450
FreqBox-$300 and change

so yeah hopefully this will help me get the Freqbox

Too much auto pan for my liking, still sounds quite cool though.

I am giving mine a break for a while, so when i go back to it i will have a fresh mind to use it. i found some really usable sounds. but they already been used i found out later.... i hate when that happens.

that sucks i hate that too, i hate it even more when i think i come up with a sweet guitar part and then i hear it somewhere, example: John Mayer, damn it :oops:

but i guess a ring mod would only have so many useable sounds, but i'd love to run it with some delay or other cool pedals
