I’m at a recording engineering course at the moment and we were going through a multitrack session and when a solo “pad-chord” track was being auditioned I said: “wow, what a crappy casio-like chords”, only to realise few seconds later, that the track name was “polymoog”.
Any reparation suggestions?
Drop a Polymoog from 6 feet onto yourself? Was it a keyboard or synth? Some of the presets on both are a bit lame - Numan sussed the preset to use (No.1 Vox Humana).
However, as part of your learning process you should be taught that sometimes things that sound crap in isolation sometimes sound perfect in the mix, whereas a huge pad with 106 oscillators and trillions of effects may just cloud the mix - sometimes less really is more.
It’s what some people say to me about buying a Voyager, why would I spend so much on a monophonic analogue. Less is more and anyway, much of the power is under the hood. You also bring out the important aspect of mixing. In isolation, complex effects can sound great but sound like crap in a mix or wash out everything else.
No-one ever questions people for buying monophonic wind or brass instruments.
If you are a master, some of those monophonic instruments can be polyphonic. (With simeltaneous overtones/harmonics)
PHC,
You must say 12 Hail Minis and don’t listen to any new age electronica for a week.
For which offense? Mistaking the “Polymoog” patch for a “crappy casio-like” sound, or playing a sound from a soundbank instead of using the real deal? 
The session was a real one so I guess the Polymoog audio recording might have been real.
As for reparation: no boiling oil and hot iron suggestions, damn it
Dont worry about it, man. Just because its a Moog doesnt mean someone cant make a crap-sounding patch if they want to (or maybe the person who patched it thought it sounded alright)
Hey man, no worries. The Polymoog was interesting, but it could sound really cheesy really quickly if you weren’t careful.
Having said that, I miss mine… Even though it caught fire in my parents’ basement…
A “real” recording of a Polymoog… Hmm.
“What is REAL, how do you define REAL…” (sorry, had to much of those red pills

True true… ))
I never said that! Leave my post count out of this. 
That’s great advice, thanks!
I noticed you only had one Moog sample:

Do you need any more?
Nobody cares if YOU make useless posts…God help me if I make them though… 
In one year you have made 3224 useless posts. God can’t help you, even he cant keep up with your posts 
Well, you made a useless post that blows all mine away! Digital is better than analog? Really? Is that why digital tries so f’ing hard to be analog? There’s a reason digital has a reputation for being cold and lifeless. Because it is cold and lifeless. Why don’t you go back to the hole you crawled out of and die? Perhaps you’ll do the world a favor. Because unlike you, some people have learned things about electronics and analog synthesis from some of my posts. Perhaps I’m not as helpful as MC or Kevin Lightner, but I am still here for one reason…a love of analog synthesis. Why are you here? To annoy me?
In case you’re wondering, this isn’t me ^^
My useless post was merely a laugh at the spammer.
Wishing you a spam-free Christmas and a troll-less New Year.
*In tune, of course *
