Moog Subsequent 3
There is no such thing as a Moog Subsequent 3. No source references this model - not a period directory, dealer listing, manual or review. The closest confirmed instruments are the Subsequent 37 and the Subsequent 25. The "3" looks like a cataloging error or a misremembered model number.
What the record does show is the Subsequent 37, a two-note paraphonic analog synthesizer introduced as an evolved version of the Sub 37 Tribute Edition. It kept the earlier model's character and added acoustic and functional improvements that users had asked for. The keyboard action is faster and more fluid, with velocity and aftertouch, and the control panel is laid out for intuitive sound design. The signal path is analog, with digital controls handling modulation and sequencing. MusicRadar (May 2017) noted the Subsequent 37 was designed to integrate with Eurorack systems.
Known specs for the Subsequent 37, which the "Subsequent 3" entry almost certainly refers to:
- 37-note semi-weighted keyboard with velocity and aftertouch
- 2-note paraphonic; mono and duo modes
- 2 variable-waveform oscillators, 1 square sub oscillator, analog noise generator
- Classic Moog filter with Multi-Drive and feedback circuits
- 2 modulation buses, DAHDSR envelopes
- 256 presets; 40 knobs, 74 switches; 128 x 64 LCD with white backlight
- Dimensions: 679 x 375 x 171 mm; weight approx. 9.98 kg
- Listed at $1,899 (Detroit Modular)
The sources available to the Archive document no production years, original release date or detailed service history. If you own a "Subsequent 3", or a Subsequent 37 with an unusual badge, we'd welcome a correction.
