Critic Reviews

Moog MF108M Cluster Flux

soundonsound.com

The Moog Moogerfooger MF-108M Cluster Flux impresses with its rich, analog chorus and flanging effects, offering a unique sonic palette for Moog enthusiasts and analog purists. Its robust build and extensive MIDI capabilities make it versatile for integrating into complex setups. While not cheap, the use of rare Panasonic BBDs justifies the cost for those seeking authentic analog warmth.

Overall, it stands out as a premium choice for those who can appreciate and utilize its full potential.

Moog Moogerfooger MF-108M Cluster Flux Pedal Review - Premier Guitar

premierguitar.com

The Moog Moogerfooger MF-108M Cluster Flux delivers lush analog effects with a vintage flair, perfect for experimental guitarists and studio enthusiasts. Its chorus, flange, and vibrato capabilities are enhanced by six waveform options, offering deep sonic exploration. The sturdy build and luxurious design are reminiscent of high-end gear, and the MIDI compatibility adds versatility for tech-savvy users. However, its $550 price may be prohibitive for casual players, and the weighty build could deter those seeking portability. Ideal for those who relish crafting unique soundscapes, it’s a worthwhile investment for serious musicians.

Moog MF-108M Cluster Flux review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The Moog Moogerfooger MF-108M Cluster Flux impresses with its harmonic manipulation capabilities, offering superb chorus and flanger effects. Notable for its solid build and flexibility, it integrates both MIDI and control voltage manipulation, making it a desirable addition for any musician's setup. The sound is lush and avoids the digital pitfalls of many analog emulators. However, it lacks an on/off switch, requiring a wall wart for power, which may inconvenience some users. Overall, its effectiveness and rich sound profile make it a worthwhile investment despite its higher price.
