Memory V 重现 Memorymoog 经典音色，告别昂贵价格与维护烦恼
The Memorymoog is legendary for being an absolutely massive-sounding synth and being incredibly unreliable. But now you can enjoy its classic Moog sound without the headaches or the sky-high vintage price, thanks to Arturia’s Memory V emulator. Memorymoog 以其极其震撼的音色和极高的故障率而闻名。但现在，多亏了 Arturia 推出的 Memory V 模拟器，你无需再忍受维护的烦恼或支付高昂的复古设备价格，即可享受其经典的 Moog 音色。
The Memorymoog was only made between 1982 and 1985, and was the last polyphonic synth made by Moog before it declared bankruptcy in 1987. People loved its sound, which was described as being six Minimoogs in a box, and the Memorymoog+ was among the first synths to adopt MIDI. It also came out right as the synth industry was shifting from analog to digital. Memorymoog 仅在 1982 年至 1985 年间生产，是 Moog 在 1987 年宣布破产前制造的最后一款复音合成器。人们钟爱它的音色，常将其形容为“装在盒子里的六台 Minimoog”。Memorymoog+ 也是最早采用 MIDI 技术的合成器之一。它的问世正值合成器行业从模拟向数字转型的时期。
It was also notorious for being rushed to market, having tuning problems, failing power supplies, being haphazardly built, and exceedingly difficult to service. Things that aren’t really an issue for software. 它也因仓促上市而臭名昭著，常伴有音准问题、电源故障、做工粗糙以及极难维修等毛病。而这些问题对于软件版本来说，根本不是事儿。
Only about 3,500 were produced and now it regularly goes for around $15,000 on the vintage market. If you’re willing to deal with one that needs some work, you might be able to get a steal at closer to $10,000. For comparison, Memory V will only set you back $149, or less if you’re an existing Arturia customer. 该型号仅生产了约 3,500 台，如今在二手复古市场上通常售价约为 15,000 美元。如果你愿意折腾一台需要维修的机器，或许能以接近 10,000 美元的价格捡漏。相比之下，Memory V 只需 149 美元，如果你已经是 Arturia 的用户，价格还会更低。
Memory V has three oscillators and one iconic Moog lowpass ladder filter per voice, just like the real deal. It also features an interface that pretty closely re-creates the dozens of knobs and buttons on the original. And, if you really want, you can stack all six voices — 18 oscillators in all — for crushingly huge leads. There are plenty of towering emulations of classic synths in Arturia’s library of plugins, but Memory V might be capable of the most oppressive tones of the lot. Memory V 的每个复音都配备了三个振荡器和一个标志性的 Moog 低通梯形滤波器，与原版如出一辙。它的界面也高度还原了原版设备上众多的旋钮和按钮。如果你有需要，甚至可以将全部六个复音叠加——总共 18 个振荡器——以获得极具冲击力的主音。Arturia 的插件库中不乏经典的合成器模拟，但 Memory V 或许是其中音色最具压迫感的一款。
Arturia also includes a lot of modern amenities that, for obvious reasons, didn’t exist in the ‘80s original. For one, it supports MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) for complex per-note control. It also has a drag-and-drop modulation system with multiple envelopes, LFOs, and a function generator. There’s also a powerful multi-arpeggiator for creating complex rhythmic and melodic lines. Arturia 还加入许多现代化的便利功能，这些功能在 80 年代的原版设备上显然是不存在的。例如，它支持 MIDI 复音表现（MPE），可实现复杂的单音符控制。它还拥有一个拖拽式的调制系统，包含多个包络、LFO 和函数发生器。此外，还有一个强大的多重琶音器，用于创作复杂的节奏和旋律线条。
Memory V excels at typical ‘80s brass sounds, unstable pads, and rich strings. You can even dial in exactly how much analog instability you want. So if you want it to sound like you bought a broken Memorymoog in desperate need of service, you can. Memory V 在处理典型的 80 年代铜管音色、不稳定的铺底音（pads）和丰富的弦乐方面表现出色。你甚至可以精确调节模拟不稳定性（analog instability）的程度。所以，如果你想让它听起来像是一台急需维修的故障 Memorymoog，完全可以实现。
