Cant use it in every song but maaan you can get sounds from this you will never get out of anything else.. still learning to use it... your music needs to be intended for moog I suppose if you want to use it a lot..

“What have we got here... MoogerFooger MurF, which is a nice pedal. It's got a step sequencer of frequencies on it so you can clock to the cv gates. Throw your sounds through and move the frequencies and get different types of steps running through those frequencies while midi clocked. I really like that one."
