Re: Post your Old School serial number!
Just out of curiosity..anyone know how many OS's were built total? I proudly own #76 and wonder how many others on the planet got a kiss of this good luck?
Re: Post your Old School serial number!
AFAIK, they started another production run after the first run was discontinued. Initially, 2500 were built. Yours was in the first run, from what I can tell with your SN. Not sure how many followed. Anyone know if these beautiful machines are still being produced?Monger wrote:Just out of curiosity..anyone know how many OS's were built total?

2,500?
Voyager OS, Prophet 08, Rhodes MkI 73, NordLead2 and more...
Re: Post your Old School serial number!
I thought the first run was only 500 in fact somebody around here has a certificate that say something like 'Congrats you have the last Old School off the line'.
Then numbers in the 500s and 600s started showing up.

Damn it, I was at work on a rubber keyboard when I typed that. I meant 500, but the two didn't delete.diddi_jo wrote:2,500?

Re: Post your Old School serial number!
I doubt the grand total's over 1000, but it'd be nice to know the "real" total-

Re: Post your Old School serial number!
I'm in a bit of a bad mood today - even if a thousand were made, you'd think the QA level would be high.
Just got my repair bill of £215.00 GBP ( Plus shipping ) for my VOS which is 2 months out of warranty - OSC 3 just packed up completely.
This is the 2nd time it's been back - the first time it the analogue board had to be replaced - at least then it was only 6 months old and that was done under warranty, otherwise that would be around £450.00 worth of servicing already.
I know it's just bad luck, but I've got to say I'm a tad disappointed with what is a fairly expensive 'quality' instrument - heck I've owned cheap-ass japanese stuff in the past that's lasted 15 years without a murmur...
anyway, moan over ! I love my Old School dearly, but I just hope this is the last time she costs me a wad of cash, at least for a good few years.

mine's been rock solid, so far... I guess living in NC is lucky, repair-wise, but I'd be S.O.L. gig-wise without my OS, since I sold my Rogue and LP to get it! I hope for your sake and the rest of us, your issues were isolated and not a common thing we should all prepare ourselves for!

Re: Post your Old School serial number!
You can take solace in the fact that, back when I had it, my VOS broke down also under warranty. The S&H circuit went belly-up. It was sent to a local Moog authorized repair center. It came back in about a week, still not completely fixed (de-synchronization of the clock pulse for the S&H). So back out to the repair center it went. This time it took 3 weeks, because they finally had to replace the whole analog board and were waiting for the ordered part from Moog. It came back finally fixed. But the calibration on it was barely acceptable at best. I sold it shortly after, at a loss because I explained everything that had happened to it to a local buyer, with all the paperwork (I'm honest).xmit wrote: I'm in a bit of a bad mood today - even if a thousand were made, you'd think the QA level would be high.

My best friend still has his, which he bought about the same time as I did mine, and his is still fine. Although the calibration from the factory on his VOS is not as good as some regular Voyagers I've heard. Especially the octave range switches.
Today, thanks to my "almost" money-back on getting rid of my VOS, I could afford a Minimoog D when I was lucky enough to find one at a reasonable price for a unit in serious need of TLC. But at least I could fix it myself, thanks to knowledgeable and generous people who have made technical documentation available. Good luck finding the service manual for a Voyager, Old School or not !
As for defective VOS, maybe we were both very unlucky ? I hope.
Oh, and if anyone is wondering, I had serial number 0087.
