Moog Mariana

Moog's first cross-platform desktop synthesizer plugin, Mariana is a dual-layer instrument built with one clear mission: exceptional bass. The same company behind the Minimoog and Subsequent series brings their analog expertise to the plugin realm.

Two fully independent synth engines can blend or run separately. Each layer includes two oscillators with sub oscillators, feeding into Moog's legendary ladder filter. The dual-layer architecture lets you stack a sub-heavy foundation with a gritty top layer, or create stereo width with detuned layers.

Sound Character

Mariana inherits the unmistakable Moog bass weight. The ladder filter delivers that warm, resonant sweep, while the dual-layer design opens up territory that a single-layer bass synth cannot reach. A deep modulation matrix connects sources to destinations across both layers, and built-in effects, compression, and metering keep everything polished without leaving the plugin.

Virtual CV integration with Moog's Moogerfooger effect plugins lets you route control signals between them, creating modular-style patches entirely in software.

Who Is This For?

• Bass-focused producers who want authentic Moog low end in a plugin
• Electronic producers looking for a cross-platform Moog synth (Windows, macOS, iPadOS)
• Sound designers who want dual-layer architecture for complex bass tones
• Moog hardware owners curious about the software counterpart
• Moogerfooger users who want virtual CV integration between plugins
