Sub Phatty is the most fully-featured and affordable way to bring the world of Moog to your home studio or live stage rig. But it might be the closet thing to a Voyager you’ll get without seriously breaking the bank. In the past few years the company introduced a couple new synthesizers in its Phatty line, that brought Moog’s flagship features and famous ladder-style filter down to a fairly affordable price point. At just under $1,000, cheap certainly isn’t the word to use to describe Moog’s monophonic, all-analog Sub Phatty synthesizer.

Producing the fattest sounding oscillators and filters around since the late 60’s, Moog’s instruments certainly come at a premium, and there’s a good reason for it. The company is widely considered to be one of, if not the premiere synth makers on the planet. Moog instruments have been used on many of the most popular and historic records over the years, having become as legendary in their own right in the process. In this week’s episode of The Logic Pros, we are taking a hands-on look at Moog’s Sub Phatty synthesizer to see how it stacks up against some of its much more affordable virtual counterparts.
