I keep hearing that the Etherwave Pro is going to be selling for $999 on the Moog site. Does anybody have confirmation about this? I thought the initial price tag was a little steep, but for $999 I’ll be ordering one asap.
Moog sent out notices to their subscribers that they were doing a Piano Bar promotion in which they targeted something like 250 cities to participate. The idea was to get Piano Bars into all parts of the country so that others could see them, in order to generate interest.
They will sell one Piano Bar to the first buyer in each targeted area that is a music professonal (gigging musician or teacher, etc.). They are to be purchased through Moog Music, and I believe that the asking price was $999.
Sounds like the original MiniMoog all over again. They had to get them out on the streets in order for people to know what in the heck they could do. I, for one, had no concept until I saw the demonstration video. If I was a piano player that could not live without the “feel” of the real thing, I would be buying one of those babies in a heartbeat.
I’m actually referring to the theremin, not the piano bar…
Ah, yes…my mistake.
Should have read it closer–was just skimming.
Sorry…
