This series of Moogerfooger effects provides a pathway into the sound and spirit of the great series of input-output-flexible, genre-altering stompboxes Moog released in its vibrant late-peak years. The interoperability of these apps and rich sound does the company name proud. Anyone looking for outstanding, musical audio effects should give this app and all of the series a careful look. If one thing could be changed at my request, it would be to allow (on this platform) other AU modulators and sources to be used in the effects-loop interoperability these Moogerfoogers offer with other Moogerfoogers. If the limits of the mobile platform allow it, that would fully capture the amazing connective possibilities the pedals brought to the world of stomps. Yes, these can be used like other AU apps in series, but effects-loop access takes the idea further. That these apps can interoperate this way is a very good thing, all the same. I mourn the recent passing of Moog as we knew it, falling into the maw of corporate greed with effects already showing in ways the employee-shareholders had not anticipated. One hopes the core people - including the outstanding software minidepartment - can stay in place and hold intact the quality-level tradition of the company. However that goes, this line of apps has turned out very well indeed.

First off, I can’t get these to activate using garage band or band lab. Whenever I do click on one, a message comes up saying it’s ready to use and to go to the DAW I’m using. I try that, and nothing. Another thing is that from what I’m seeing, these aren’t effects pedals like what you would use while playing, but instead are they post production editing tools? If these can’t be used while playing, then I want my money back. I am no producer, or “sound designer” as they call them lately as if they’re the equivalent to an engineer at a nuclear reactor station. Not my thing. Musicians do nothing but tear each other down anyways, so I’m not interested in being part of the world of production
