Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.
Download on the App StoreAudiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

For me that would just mean no more products from any of the companies managed or owned by inMusic...
I mean when Meta/Facebook 'inquired' (a better word would be a more or less hostile take over of all IP, fire the people who worked there and shut down the company) Beatformer disappeared from the AppStore...
Your comment made me run Wavemapper by PPG - WOW! Havn’t played with Wavemapper for five-six year - it sounds so lush creamy and fluffy, great!
This was released for ten year ago and runner incredibly good on an M1 iPad - great coding!
Yup it was inevitable and cyclical pretty much.

Missing India here, which has overtaken China as the world's most populous nation. Anyway, spending power, not just population, has to be taken into account.
There would also be many other factors at play, though, in how interested any population is, or will be, in the prospect of buying synths, whether hard or soft.
Perhaps a little OT, but, here in Sweden the amount of students that playing acoustic instruments have been rising several years a row - that’s really great that not only electronic devices is used to play live music…
I've heard that's a general trend, though don't know the statistics. These things always go in cycles anyway!
Last year I was lucky enough to visit the Moog Factory and Moogseum in Asheville. With the current trend (chips, Behringer and other factors) I think they have to do something. Is this the best solution? I truly hope it is but Roger’s story frightens me a bit. For now I will sit on my full Moog Sound Studio and Grandmother.
The Moog interactive website mentioned in this thread is loads of fun.
You're citing sources that don't support what you're saying. . .
"Given current (2020) demographic trends, it is projected that the U.S. population would grow slightly by 2100, while other countries, including China and India, will shrink."

"The UN Department of Economics and Social Affairs projects between 9 and 10 billion people by 2050 and gives an 80% confidence interval of 10–12 billion by the end of the 21st century. . . ."

Yup, this is correct. While populations have been spiking for some time, they are now expected to peak in countries like China and India, as they did in Europe and US, and start to decline. This is because these countries are now entering their next phase of economic growth and mass population is no longer needed or sustainable.
This is my home town and I still haven’t visited. Guess I’d better make it a priority now before it potentially disappears!
That must've been fun visiting their factory.
Should have been Music Tribe
Time to get yours today:

Moog is was 49% "employee owned". Not exactly sure what that means when it comes to decision making about ownership transfers. If anyone reads anything about how employees were involved (or not) with this sale, I'd love to read about it.
Synthtopia's write up is a good reminder that the Moog brand has changed hands/status several times over the decades. I'd like to think of this is just another chapter in the ever-evolving Moog story but Jack O'Donnell is a bastard.
Not that I have any inside knowledge of their situation, but if they had to make a choice between making payroll and shutting the doors this was the right decision for them.
Did a quick Google search on inMusic. Damn, I didn't know inMusic owns so many companies. This is a bit unsettling.

I mean I’d buy it.
Just stay clear of the MOOG Farce
hummm ... on the other hand the fact that it isn't obvious that those brands are owned by someone else says something about them maintaining their autonomy.
I entertained my inner 5 year old for a couple of hours building a minimoog this evening.
Now do an OP-1 and sell it for $999
0 voice polyphony. It just sits there.
After the way the BFD purchase turned out I have very, very low expectations.
The employee-owners were bought out according to the cdm article.
