Mother-32 Firmware v2.0 a Major Updates for Moog Mother-32

Moog released Mother-32 Firmware v2.0! This major instrument update provides access to a host of dynamic new features, including multiple sequencer directions, improved and expanded clocking options, CV-addressed sequencer control, selectable swing intervals, the ability to ignore start/stop messages, and more.

If you are new to this semi-modular synth, take a look at our Moog Mother-32 Review: “Moog’s Mother-32 Moog is an extremely versatile semi-modular analog synthesizer. Mother-32 has all to be an iconic and classic synth, certainly a strong market. The warmth, softness, and saturation vibe is unquestionably a Moog synthesizer. As you can expect from a Moog product it is of exceptional build quality and delivers the fabulous Moog sound combined with a truly compelling sequencer. Mother-32 performs well with other Eurorack modules. As part of a modular system with all of its standard components, it is an excellent base module. If you obtain similar modular elements you would face a much higher price point compared to the Mother-32.“

Introduced in 2015, Mother-32 was Moog’s first entry in our ever-growing family of semi-modular analog synthesizers. Combining a flexible analog monophonic voice, robust step-sequencer, and 32-point 3.5mm patchbay for interconnectivity and expandability, Mother-32 is a dynamic standalone instrument that gives synthesists a way to incorporate classic Moog sound into the Eurorack modular world.

Firmware v2.0 brings Mother-32 owners a major instrument update. This new update provides users access to a host of dynamic new features, including multiple sequencer directions, improved and expanded clocking options, CV-addressed sequencer control, selectable swing intervals, and new pattern change behaviors.

Update Process

Follow the instructions included in the firmware archive on how to update. I did use on my MAC the SysEx Librarian tool and connected a normal midi cable from my Clarett 8PreX to the powered-on Moog Mother-32.
