by the way, anybody who’s been on the AMS list for ages, http://www.analoguehaven.com/moog/littlephatty/

they are in stock, 5 or so left i think.

So did you give AMS their recycled LP back and purchase from Analogue Haven??

yeah, i’m done dealing with that lousy company. it’s like walmart for instruments.. no people there actually care about what happened, nor did anyone offer a solution besides a refund.

the mere fact that they let a used product out the door and tried to pass it off as new was enough.

as opposed to AMS’s ongoing 3 month+ wait for broken used products, Analog Haven has shipped mine after a preorder wait of only 3 days.

Just a got number 427 a couple days ago, so far loving it!

Couple questions though. Does anyone else here find the output a little weak? Compared to my Yamaha SY85, S80, Oberheim Matrix 1000, Roland JD-990, and Access Virus Indigo 2, the LP’s output level is the lowest by far. Is this normal?

Also, I know analog synths are a little noisier than most digital ones, but I’m wondering about a sort of high-frequency wheeze that triggers on all notes. It’s at the same pitch, but the mod wheel can sometimes affect it. I read that the first 15 LPs had this problem, and while I can hear the same noise in some of other user’s sound samples, mine seems a little worse.

Here’s an example (with the filter closed it’s still pretty noisy). Once again, is this normal? I know the overdrive exacerbates the problem, but it’s present even when overdrive is off.

Here’s a temporary link:

Thanks in advance. I hope I’m just being really paranoid/picky

Hi i wish everybody an excellent happy new year !


Ok so i’v just bought a Lp a week ago and i’m very happy about how it sounds. It’s my first analog synth and I feel like mine might have the same problem about the noise (a static noise) but I hope too that is a comon thing with the analog synths.

Here is the sample (resonance=0, overload=0, just playing with the cutoff filter) : http://download.yousendit.com/1316E7302E4B1F65

ps :at the end i’m playing different notes


Can someone tell me if there is somthing wrong with ?

Thank you !

Well, the noise seems less noticeable than on my LP, so I definitely think yours is normal, seeing as Moog Music deemed mine normal. Still makes me a bit grumpy, but a portion of the noise is due to how the firmware is coded. The next major firmware revision will supposedly quiet the LP down a bit.

Enjoy this otherwise fantastic little synth!

You have reassured me


Thank you Pulsar for your response and thank you, yes I already felt in love with the LP ! It is absolutely worth it, i’v sold my Yamaha rack es rompler to buy it and i don’t regret it at all. Now i will stay stuck to the analog world.


Ps : Other owners feel free to reassure me lol because i’m from France and i don’t know how difficult it is to repair it if mine had finally a problem, because now it’s my Little Baby and we all care about our babies

rest assured it will be fixed with a firmware update

I have phatty #438. I haven’t checked it out while pressing a key and having both oscillators set to zero. However, without pressing any keys, my little phatty is hands down the quietest synth among six other digital synths in terms of system hiss.

I also have no problems with audio output. It easily rivals my Roland JP-8080 and my Yamaha TQ5 for volume, and they’re my two loudest synths.

If you’re having severe problems in either of these areas, you should definitely talk to Moog Tech Support.

My LP (#373) output seems fine. You do realize that the volume control above the headphone jack controls the audio out volume also, right?

Thanks for the previous two posts, but Moog has already serviced my LP. All is well, so I’m going to stay out of this thread now.
