Hi guys
Id like some advice from you regarding something:
I have the Little Phatty..and have recently been on a mission purchasing all of the moogerfoogers including the cp251
Ive also been saving toward the Voyager, but since i started messing with the foogers ive fell in love with the phatty again…
Because i have the rest of the gear do you guys think its worth me buying the voyager, or is the phatty plus foogers just as powerful??
Any help would be awesome…
Kind Regards

I guess you could use the Voyager for more modular capabilities as it has more CV ins and outs..
But I would just buy one to complete the setup. 
There will definitely be (more complex) things that you can do with the Voyager (and VX-351) than you can with the LP. However, the question I would ask is “How bad do I need to do them?”
Obviously if you have money to spare then I would say go for it - you won’t be disappointed, that’s for sure.
Have you ever played a Voyager before?
I think when you do, youll get one and then you will look back on this thread and laugh about how you could have possibly have doubted its power.
I know how it is though trying to decide on whether or not to buy this or that and If you are anything like me you won’t be satisfied until you get the Voyager. WHen you open the box you will immediately be in awe in its superiority to anything else. THe CV ins with all of those foogers that you have will provide you with tremendous capabillity to do lots and lots, and if you throw in the vx351 then that will double that again. THe LP sounds fantastic but it just isn’t the Voyager in my opinion.
If you love Moog then you can’t turn your back on their flagship product. Its an extremely fine example of craftsmanship and engineering genius and it has enough functions to continue to make us realize how much we don’t know about synthesis for many years to come.
WHatever your decision is…I hope that you are happy with it.

Thanks guys for the advice…
I think im sold on the Voyager…
All i need to decide now is what one to get…
Im pretty new into production..been doing it for maybe 3 years so im still learning all the time.
I quite fancy the Old School one with it not having any presets…Tell me can you save your own??
Thanks 
No memory at all on the Voyager OS.
The OS stands for “Old School”. In the early days of synthesizers (before the eighties), saving a sound was done by memorising the settings in your mind or on a piece of paper.
The (normal) Voyager comes with patch memory. These memories ar filled with many, many sounds. But you can overwrite them. So the word “preset” is not meant for “preset at the factory” or “unchangeable” here.
For me, its all about the touchscreen, the memory and being able to slave other keyboards thru midi and run it back to the voyager for layered polyphonic goodness.
Theres nothing wrong with the OS, its jsut for me, learning on the micro…im done with patch sheets and taking pictures of the panel settings.

Till is correct, the Old School has no way of storing patches. There’s no digital electronics in the signal path, nor any memory. Back in the day when Minimoogs roamed the earth (!), the only way to save a patch was to notate the knob and switch settings with pad and pencil. The Voyager Old School follows in this tradition. (Note: The Old School User’s Manual has a blank patch template that can be used to record your original patches. For those who would like some additional programming assistance here, Moog will be offering a patch book for the Old School that will include classic Voyager patches taken from the factory banks, as well as some original patches.)
Bottom line: if you wish to go ‘old school’, you need an Old School!
That said, the programmable Voyagers have a lot to offer WRT sound creation and flexibility that go far beyond the capabilities of the Old School. This is what having digital control buys you: selection of filter poles, additional modulation routings, pot mapping, individual Pitch UP/DOWN parameters, and a Touch Surface controller, to mention just a few, along with memory for storing 896 patches (7 banks for 128 each).
Both Voyager and the Old School offer the same CV interfaces (actually, the Old School includes Pitch and Gate CV outs on the back panel) and expansion options for working with MoogerFoogers and other CV gear.
Either way, you can go wrong, IMO. Once you get used to working with three oscillators, anything less just ain’t the same. 
Minimoogs still roam the earth and rule with a heavy hand. 
THanks for the advice guys!!
Does the OLd School have MIDI..You know so i can lay down a bassline in ABleton and tweak it round etc?
Sorry if thats a silly question, i just cant seem to find an answer and ive used the search function on the forum and looked through the specs etc about the synth…
To answer my own question here, no its not midi. I downloaded the manual and had a look at the diagram of the back and can see no midi connection points…
Introducing the Minimoog Voyager OS - Old School
…the new synth with the analog sound engine of the Voyager, but > without the digital controls> . The perfect solution for players looking for a road-worthy replacement for their venerable Minimoog Model D, a full-featured centerpiece for their modular synth rig or just craving direct, hands-on connection to their creativity!
You didn’t have to download the manual..
