It is odd how my preferences have changed. A year ago, I thought doing without presets or MIDI would be a serious handicap. Now, I see the knobs/switches and lack of menus on the Old School as a plus. If I did need MIDI, then adding an MP-201 seems like a great solution.
Something to work towards, I guess.
I’l trade you for a functioning ARP 2600.
Absolutely. On both counts. The OS is a very satisfying hands on instrument to play and to own. And the sound, I mean… I stop here before I write volumes.
I wanted one as soon as they announced the release of the OS. Unfortunately, I had just bought an LP a few months before, so I couldn’t justify the purchase of one then. Then they abruptly quit making them, though Nova Musik has a couple on e-bay right now, and Sweetwater as a couple as well, according to demon dan. Can’t afford one now either, though, because of the Taurus III! 
how dare Moog make you choose between all these sweet instruments!! 
I know! I’ll have to start saving now for the polysynth they will release in ten years.
YES!! I learned everything i know about synthesis on softsynths but something about the OS just seemed right…screw midi man…CV is just so much more fun!! Patches…well once you understand ur way around u dont need em…
Patches?! We doan need no steenkeeng patches!! 
I want one too!
I really wanna get one of the whitewashed ones from novamusik since that way it’ll match my tele :-3
Honestly, a lack of presets dont bother me at all since I always spend more time playing with knobs than I do keys on all synths but the DX7!
Nows the time to get your O.S ..Nova Musik is doing a blow out sale $1899.. . they were $2595
Yep, the NovaMusik sale is a sweet deal. I would trade in my LP for a whitewash OS in heartbeat if I had the money to spend, but I don’t.
I would trade my LP, Rogue and DSI Evolver for a VOS. 
By my calculations you’re only $300 short:
LP = $800
Rogue = $500
Evolver = $300
= $1,600
$1899! Holy crap!
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm that is very… interesting.. almost mouthwatering.. screw almost.. I want one now. 1899$? crazy. Who needs midi + patches? Not I.
I’m a little confused in the meantime about the availability of a Voyager Old School. Is this instrument still manufactured or is it already discontinued?
Many thanks in advance for a clarification in that matter.
Discontinued. An outstanding synthesizer that did not met commercial success enough to make it viable, it seems. Go figure, a better than model D minimoog overall (if a tiny bit less vintage sounding).
They announced producing a last batch of 200 a long time ago, these took a long time to sell. Even if advertised, check for availability. Very few remaining.
I am glad I seized the opportunity, it’s my pride and joy.
Novamusic has a steal going on right now.
Old School sound > Voyager w/midi sound?
