Discover your sonic potential with the Moog Mavis, a DIY monophonic analog synthesizer that combines Moog's legendary sound with an adventurous modular approach. This compact powerhouse offers both a standalone tabletop experience and the ability to slot seamlessly into any 44HP Eurorack setup. Perfect for beginners and seasoned synthesists alike, the Mavis invites you to explore the realm of analog synthesis without the need for soldering or complex tools.

The Mavis boasts a robust set of features, including Moog's revered oscillator and -24dB low-pass ladder filter, delivering the rich harmonic character and thick bass lines that Moog is renowned for. What sets Mavis apart is its inclusion of Moog's first-ever analog wavefolder, introducing a blend of traditional subtractive and innovative additive synthesis. This allows for a wide palette of expressive sounds and textures.

With its one-octave keyboard, complete with glide and scaling, Mavis is not just about sound creation but also about performance and playability. Its 24-point patch bay offers extensive possibilities for creative patching, while the modular utilities, such as attenuators and a flexible DC-coupled mixer, provide even greater control and versatility. Whether you're crafting experimental sequences or classic Moog leads, the Mavis is your gateway to a new world of sound.
