What material is the Decksaver Moog Subsequent 37 Cover made from?

The cover is constructed from a high-quality polycarbonate shell. This material is chosen for its strength, durability, and lightweight properties, providing optimal protection against impact.

Does the cover fit the Moog Subsequent 37 perfectly?

Yes, the cover is custom-moulded to fit the specific shape and dimensions of the Moog Subsequent 37. It accounts for the placement of all knobs and the keybed to ensure a snug fit.

Can I leave my cables plugged in while using the cover?

Yes, the design of the cover allows for easy access to the inputs and outputs at all times. This means you do not have to unplug your synthesiser to protect it.

Is the synthesiser included with the purchase?

No, the product consists of the protective cover only. Any synthesiser shown in marketing images is for reference and scale purposes only.

What is the typical price for this cover?

The typical price range for the Decksaver Moog Subsequent 37 Cover is approximately £51. Prices may vary slightly depending on the retailer and shipping costs.

What colour is the Decksaver cover?

The cover features a high-quality smoke/clear sheen. This transparent finish allows the user to see the synthesiser underneath while providing a sleek, professional look.

Does this cover protect against liquid spills?

Yes, the polycarbonate shell acts as a barrier that shields the synthesiser's controls and internal components from accidental liquid spills and dirt.

Is the cover suitable for use in a flight case?

Yes, the Decksaver is designed to be low-profile enough to fit inside many flight cases or gig bags. This provides an additional layer of protection for the knobs and keys during transit.

How does the Decksaver compare to a soft dust cover?

Unlike a soft fabric cover, the Decksaver is rigid and provides impact protection. It prevents the knobs and switches from being pressed or bent by external pressure.

Will this cover fit other Moog synthesisers?

This specific model is custom-moulded for the Subsequent 37. While it may share dimensions with the Sub 37, it is not guaranteed to fit other models like the Matriarch or Grandmother.

Is the cover easy to clean?

Yes, because it is made of smooth polycarbonate, it can be wiped down easily to remove dust. This keeps the synthesiser underneath clean and ready for use.

Does the cover protect the wooden side panels of the Moog?

The cover is designed to shield the top interface and keybed. While it covers the top edge, its primary focus is protecting the sensitive electronic controls and the keybed from damage.

Decksaver Moog Subsequent 37 Cover

Overview

The Decksaver Moog Subsequent 37 Cover is a professional-grade protective solution for owners of the Moog Subsequent 37 analogue synthesiser. Recognising the vulnerability of high-end synthesisers to environmental factors, Decksaver has engineered this cover to fit the specific contours of the instrument's interface, including its various knobs, buttons, and wooden side panels.

Design and Construction

The cover is manufactured from polycarbonate, a high-strength thermoplastic commonly used in bulletproof glass. This material choice ensures that the shell remains lightweight while providing significant resistance to superficial damage and impact. The aesthetic is defined by a high-quality smoke/clear sheen, which allows the synthesiser's design to remain visible even when the unit is protected.

One of the primary design features is its custom-moulded shape. Rather than a generic rectangular lid, this cover is shaped to follow the exact layout of the Subsequent 37. Furthermore, the design ensures that inputs and outputs at the rear of the synthesiser remain accessible at all times, allowing the cover to be used without disconnecting cables.

Protective Capabilities

The primary function of the Decksaver is to act as a barrier against common studio and stage hazards. These include:

Dust and Dirt: Prevents particles from settling into the potentiometers and keybed, which can cause crackling or mechanical failure over time.
Liquid Spills: Provides a hard shield against accidental spillages.
Physical Impact: Absorbs shocks that could otherwise damage the synthesiser's sensitive controls during transit or storage.
Superficial Damage: Protects the finish and wooden elements from scratches.

Comparison and Suitability

While standard soft cases like the Gear4music Rock Fusion Drum Bag or violin cases like the BAM Conservatoire series provide protection for transport, they do not offer the 'always-on' protection of a Decksaver. Unlike soft bags, the Decksaver can remain on the unit while it is parked in a studio rack or desk setup. Compared to generic covers, the polycarbonate shell offers superior rigidity. It is ideally suited for studio owners who wish to keep their gear ready for use without the constant need for cleaning, and for touring musicians who require an extra layer of protection inside a flight case or gig bag.
