The Moog Prodigy Synthesizer from the year 1979 is my favorite Moog synth. Here can you find the full Prodigy playlist with a lot single sound demos, synth comparisions and one synth demo tracks. Enjoy.

This ia an awesome track nicely done!!! I once had the honor of playing a Prodigy at a synthesizer exhibit 9 years ago. I was jamming with it live along side a TR808 and it was a very enjoyable experience. This is a wonderful sounding synth!!! As the song in this video demonstrated, it can sound very futuristic and sci-fi if called upon to do so. Thanks for bringing back those memories.

I owned one of these too in the mid-80's.  Got it used for only US$200 or so at a large music store that had a pretty sizable keyboard dept.  The amazing part, though, is that I wrote a letter to Moog Music asking if they had a manual for it that I could buy...and they just sent me one for free!  The people at Moog have always been awesome.

I really like that sequenced part -- very punchy and bubbly.

I love the Moog Prodigy! It almost has more personality than the MiniMoog. Wish they made them again.

Nice song and sounds, a couple of time i tought of selling my Slim Phatty to get the prodigy or the Mg-1 to get the more vintage tone but the Slim phatty has very high sound quality, presets, midi, so couldn't do it.

Is it true, that the 336BX's are the only ones that stay in tune ? I've read that today. Somebody in my area sells one for about 970$. It's a 5166X. Anybody know ?

So THIS is the mythical beast of which a certain Essex Based band of the 90's onwards named themselves from? Interesting.

Okay! 
Again more great, dark, very dark ...

this is an awesome tune, reminds me of vangelis (songs like spiral)

[Radionut]

My I have permission to use this in a movie I am making? I will give all credit. Fantastic sound.

How do you rate Prodigy compared to other analog mono synths? I really do think I prefer it to the D AND the Voyager, though only by a little. The mother 32 osc .maybe sound better, but I still prefer this filter.

[reSEQUENCer]

My 336BX looks very different to yours on the back! Great sound isn't it.

[mythin]

how would you compare this to the polivoks?
