Don’t apologize. I appreciate your post. It’s just that as an analog synth player of 34 years, I am horribly frustrated that I can’t find an instrument-quality voltage-controlled joystick at all. What I need is one of very high quality, since I use the pitch bender constantly in my playing, and use it for vibrato as well. I wear them out frequently.
This forum, apparently, is the only place where I can communicate at all with the Moog product development person/people, and all my posts on this topic over the last couple of years have never amounted to anything. The reason for my search is that when controlling pitch bend with midi, the Voyager produces awful-sounding digital artifacts, and this problem has never been addressed. Hence my search for an analog joystick. And there isn’t one. I don’t want to blame Moog either, because I love my RME and if Moog doesn’t see a market for joysticks, well that is their call.
For joystick players, there isn’t an analog sythesizer, which is to say there is no instrument for me at all. Perhaps now you can understand the full extent of my frustration.
I must be pretty dense though, because instead of waiting for Moog to produce a joystick for their synths, what I need to do is get my wonderful keyboard repair guy to build me one.
I want to thank everyone sincerely for their posts.
