If you like this sort of exploratory content (or don't like it), please reach out and let me know!
This is a live, unedited exploration of one of my favourite synths, the Moog Subsequent 37. It's an example of the Patreon-supported videos I make, exploring gear, workflows, walking through a process, etc., and the first of a series of these explorations that I'll be editing together into a "gear for years" video in the near future. The other videos in this series will feature more of my favourite synths, samplers, drum machines, etc., and will only be on Patreon.
However, if this is a format you're interested in seeing more from me, please let me know. I'm always happy to add more types of videos to the channel, and this might be a fun format.
Thanks for indulging me more than usual.
Recorded live through the Allen & Heath Qu-16, using the Electro-Voice RE-20 for talking, OBS to capture video, and the Strymon Big Sky plug-in for reverb on the Sub37. No additional mixing or mastering performed.

At 5:30 Beauty begins…
After this vid half yer ago I bough subsequent 25 and big sky plugin, and yesterday I finally get subsequent 37. So I watch this video again and feel so much inspiration to experiment with my own sounds. Thank u and greetings from Ukraine 🇺🇦
Oh man that resonant tone at 8:00 was so rich and atmospheric - sounds a lot like throat singing! It really makes the "big sky" sound like a big sky backdrop too! That single note subtly modulated like that could be a meditative piece in of itself to my mind! 🥰👌
Yup- He has a signature sound, like very few in this bitness ! Jay is FANTASTIC !
This was the best demo of the Subsequent 37 I’ve seen. Time to give mine some love. Thank you!
5:16 The beast awakens. :) Looking forward to more of these, thanks!
I remember how i sat down for the first time with mine and instantly fell in love. I knew instantly that is a keeper! Became a nonstop session if 2h. The perfect, logical layout and that huge sweetspot. I completely agree with you. My fav mono. And for that amount of money you get a lot of synth!
It sounds awesome! It reminds me of Trent Reznor and Alessandro Cortini ...The Sub37 was the first synth I've ever bought and is definitely one of my favourites...It's such a pleasant instrument
Awesome indeed Jay. One of my grail synths for sure. Thanks for the visit with it!
That was beautiful !🔥🔥🔥
Man, I have really been underestimating this synth's upper registers. I always think of it in the context of bass. What a great exploration of this synth's capabilities! (And damn, does that filter rip)
The past week I've been trying to decide between a sub 25 and a sub 37... and then you post this. So now I have a sub 37. Thanks.
More ! More of these insights to your equipment , and your symbiotic relation to the soul of these Beautiful Machines 😘👌🌹
FUCK yeah, Jay. Been hoping you'd do something like this for ages now :) Thanks! PS. would love your run-through of the Abyss
Hi Jay! Thank you for the awesome video presentation. Very cool sounds! I hope all is well in Your world 🌎. Mark Bensette Aux Bois 🇨🇦.
This is great! I'm looking forward to your upcoming videos! Thanks
Modern classic! If it was priced higher it would be more coveted, more exclusive, more elusive… As it is, many “sleep on it” thinking “it’s a mono with Moog brand up-charge”. 😂
Awesome idea and great vid. Thank you!
Indeed, great duo-phonic! Thanks for your vids
Moog make beautiful instruments no doubt. Nice one.
really nice sounds, loving mine too
Amazing. ❤
what a radical sounding synth...........................great upload................I haven't used one of these, so it's really great to get a more informed idea of the sound sculpting potential..................awesome session
a great sounding synthesizer with the typically great sounding filters🎼👌
Thank you!
Mindblown
Nice !
Thanks! It's the synth I've always kept ♥ But I was just looking for more inspiration after a period of not being able to play it too much so this comes at a prefect moment :)
very good. For me the 'angular and dry' sounding of the subsequent make me prefer other moog engines but you know what do to do with it.
I enjoy these kinds of videos, so I'm all in for more of this. The sub37 is creamy and delicious. I don't have one, but I try very hard to make what I do have sound like this thing, getting as close as I possibly can. Enjoyed this video very much so.
You're a boss 👍👍😉
To me the show really starts at 11:38, awesome!
Very strong Cortini vibes.
That face pop-in was more funny than it should've been
Brilliant. Thanks for that. I am very much looking forward to the next exploratory video. The wife is not going to like it though as I am starting to make room for a Subsequent right after watching this.
😘 OMG - that sound ! 💪 Its disturbingly good ! Always a treat to get the straight dope from Mr.Hosking ! 🤌💥
I dont own a sub37 but it feels like its smiling when it plays.
Jay love your videos. I was wondering if you have an opinion on your favorite reverb to use with your Subsequent 37. I own one myself and I’m in the market for a reverb pedal and can’t decide what will compliment this beast the best. I know you’re using the Strymon Big Sky, and that is definitely on my list of ones to pick. Just curious if you have a favorite for the Moog.
There are many great choices. The Big Sky certainly is in my top few. I think the Empress Reverb slightly beats it, though. And thanks!
Isn't the 37 Duophonic ? or Paraphonic as some like to call it
Lovely synth. How do you think it compares to the Matriarch?
I think the Matriarch is better for bass, warmer, and can get weirder in that classic way. The Sub37 has better midrange, cuts through a mix better, and the drives add a lot. I also like its format better. Both great synths, but they perform different roles. Hope that helps.
@@JayHosking Sold my Sub37 when I got my Matriarch. I certainly miss the Sub37 pretty often. It is special as heck. And presets:)
Also keep in mind The Sub 37 has preset memory, whereas the Matriarch does not. Not inherently a bad thing, but I do prefer the Sub 37 for it.
MegaFM... MegaFM....
I'm sorry, I sold it! But maybe one day I'll get the MegaFM2. Fantastic squirrelly synth that's hard to constrain!
Does the subsequent really makes a difference compared to the sub 37 ? Or do you consider they actually produce a very similar sound ?
Very very similar. Only difference, as far as I know, is headroom in the mixer: the Sub breaks up easier, especially in paraphonic, and the Subsequent stays cleaner to higher volumes.
@@JayHosking That's because i may buy a Sub37 second hand for a good price. So staying relatively low in the mixer will probably keep the sound identical to the Subsequent one. And i don't feel it's a bad keybed. Surprising there was a mkII after a very short time and with very few changes/improvements. Your use of this synth is gorgeous
Is this the better one for bass, or the Matriarch?
Myself, I'd say I like Matriarch better than SS37 for bass, but I like Minitaur best for bass.
If you have a Matriarch, is there any gain in getting the sub37 for around 1000$ (second hand).
I have a Microfreak as an companion synth for the Matriarch but ui feels flat and boring and uninspiring even though you can create pretty much any sound with it.
I think the Subsequent 37 has a pretty distinct sound from the Matriarch, while both sounding in the wheelhouse of Moog. The SS37 definitely cuts through a mix better and the Matriarch has a warmer, subtler thing. I've definitely used both in the same jam before. That said, there's a world of cool mono synths out there, so you could always try something else as well.
@@JayHosking Thanks for your opinion. I might actually chill on this one. My dream is actually to have a moog voyager one day. I hope they will start reproduce them or come up with a new version. It feels like buying one on second hand today is too expensive and are doomed to break soon after buying.
Just dont turn into another "Synthfluencer".....God save us we dont need another god damn Bobeats........
My primary interest in hardware is making music, and I don't think I'm going to be "synthfluencing" anyone soon! That said, I get a lot of emails and messages, asking about the "best" gear, hence the upcoming video on it. But other than that, I just want to make music.
@@JayHosking 🙏👍
Lol. Chill bro. Bo has his place. However, i would watch Jay 100 times to Bo - 1. I can never recall shedding a tear over a Bobeats video. Been a few from Mr Hoskings work, however. Just saying... 👍
@@SpikesStudio3 thankfully Bo’s crap no longer shows up in my feed. But yeah, Jay has always put out great videos
He's already synthfluenced me tons so yer a bit late dude ha ha.
But he's not bobeats. Mainly cause he appears to actually write music **ooh get me**
Love this
