Portable, scaled down version of the Moog Synthesizer. Still Analog, very popular among Rock musicians in the early 70's. Keith Emerson, Chick Corea, Gary Numan,Rick Wakeman and Jan Hammer made use of it. Has become a classic instrument still in use today.

Perhaps a classic instrument to get a bit of the old widdly-widdly. Created by Robert Moog in the mid-70's as a successor to the original Moog which was very large and hard for Keith Emerson to take out on tour, which is why he would take out his frustrations on it so violently. The Minimoog is now quite in vogue as the instrument necessary to get that great 70s sound.
