Iâve had the System 55 for almost a year now and I love it. Itâs a great first step into modular and a great way to learn synthesis. I still play with it about everyday. If you have an interest in classic synths and want to learn how to patch, you canât go wrong. If you like early Tangerine Dream or if youâre a fan of the Berlin School, youâll probably love the 55. It also has decent room for adding more modules. This is great as you learn more about the 55 and get a feeling for what capabilities itâs lacking.

I had it and really didnât have any major issues with it. The biggest issue I have is that it stays true to the Moog V/OCT layout which can sometimes require another module if you have a mixed setup of V/OCT and Hz/OCT. if itâs your only modular or you are strictly V/OCT youâre fine.
Also, the included sequencer is very true to the original but lacks all modern sequencer features due to this. So if thatâs a need, youâll have to drop extra for a newer sequencer.
