I just couldn’t pass up the free CP-251. I’ve been planning on buying a Voyager OS since the day it was announced, but this promotion sealed the deal. Thanks Moog! #221 and she’s a beaut! 
Congrats! Looks great with the Juno 6 too!
COngrats on the purchase!
Welcome to the forum!
Welcome to the forum!
Nice set up.
Your location reminds me of a quote from an old song I once heard.
“There’s a right handsome woman on up around Boulder, she’s got the slick Hollywood floors and a pot belly’d stove. She swears I am someone she can believe it, she’s the best Colorado girl I’ve ever known.”
Lord knows, I just love those old time boys. Waylon Jenning, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson and Billy Joe Shaver!
I swear at some point in time if you were to mess with those old coyboys you’d turn up missing. They could tell you all that went down, but they’d have to kill you after!
Thanks all! I am really loving how incredibly inspiring this instrument is, much more so than the Little Phatty Tribute that it replaced. The CV options really open up a lot of new doors. I’m using it with a few Moogerfoogers, namely: 102, 104Z, CP-251, and 105. Wow! All I need is to save for the VX-351.
And alaloghaze I love Waylon and Willie too. There’s more than a few handsome women up here 
Pangmaster, that IS one beautiful synth. I don’t think I could EVER let go of my LP to get one though. The LPAGSE is my first analog synth, after all. I hope that my second analog synth will be a Voyager OS. Someday. Next year. Maybe. 
But I WILL get one! And it will be AWESOME! Then I will buy a .com entry level modular for $120 a month, as well as a Q960 sequencer, unless Moog comes out with a sequencer first. Then my studio will be complete!..Well…almost.
Your studio will never be complete…especially if you are talking about going modular. Are you kidding me? Its just like drums…you can never have too many drums. If you don’t believe me just ask Neil Peart of Terry Bozzio.
THen your dotcom cabinet I believe will have a huge hole in it even with the sequencer so youll have to fill that up. THen youll realize that you really need more and more modules, especially the Ladder filter they sell and then youll be looking at their studio 110 trying to con your way into a bank loan for that puppy.
Then when you get that huge modular, you will realize that youll need a second sequencer to accompany the first sequencer, and then a third sequencer just to use as a data array. Then youll decide that youll need 2 keyboard controllers and im telling you that the long and winding road that leads to modulars is infinite.
THen youll want to get the Voyager.
THen youll end up in my boat…wanting to collect the Vintage Moog gear.
Just yeaterday I drew what it would look like for me to have a Polymoog with a Model D on top and the Taurus pedals underneath, and on either side is matching rack cabinets with all the Foogers and about 17 Modusonics Modules. I didn’t tabulate the cost.
Believe me, it wasn’t an easy decision. I kept telling myself that I needed to keep the LPTE and that it was a collector’s item, etc, but I just don’t have the space and I wouldn’t have been able to afford the Voyager unless I sold the LP. The Phatty is cool, but I won’t miss it too much. I really only need one monosynth in my studio. Polys, on the other hand, are a different story. I have more than a few of those
Here’s what I’m thinking…so bear with me…the entry level comes with 10 empty spaces. Replace the Q126 filter with the Transistor Ladder Filter, add the Q960, 961, and 962. That’ll be the first cabinet. I already have priced Tolex through Mojo Musical Supply, as well as brass hardware through various suppliers. If I buy ten yards of Tolex, Mojo green taurus, it will be enough to cover everything I want covered for the low price of 135 bucks. I will NEVER get a 44 space+ cabinet…why bother when you can get two introductory cabinets? Or three? Or five? I would use the LP as a controller, and run the Voyager OS through the second cabinet. Then I’d buy a portable cabinet and use it for sequencers, if need be. 
If they ever make a rack mount LP, you’ll want yours back, I’m sure. Who WOULDN’T want a polyphonic or even duophonic LP? Ah, well. The Voyager IS a beast, make no mistake about that.
See I guess I Just don’t really want an OS. I think they would be superior to the Voyager because of their lack of digitality but I have grown tired of taking pictures of the panel to remember patches. I prefer the memory.
If I was going to integrate a Voyager into a dotcom synth, Id probably go with the RME, but Id have to have a keyboard controller much bigger than the LP before I woudl be satisfied.
Id love to have the studio 44 cabinet.
That’s what the patch book is for!
Patch Books are fine, but there are times in live performance where you don’t have enough time or hands to do a major patch change .
Thus the modular! And the LP. I love my LP. Novamusik has a limited edition white OS for $2195…it looks really classy. Meh…I don’t do much live stuff anyway. 
A lot of times in the studio I’ll dial up a sound from scratch on the Voyager (and other analogs with preset memory)…. And if it’s really a cool sound save it to a patch memory…
Patch sheets and markings on the panel have been a part of synths since pretty much day one Fun with patch sheets when you dial it back in it may not be exactly the same and there is nothing wrong with that
Hey,
Im proud to say that I cut my synthesis teeth on a Moog, but Ive absolutely had my fill of notebooks, patchbooks and photos of the panel.
It definately has its place as far as getting you to really learn the functions of every pot knob and switch.
I program the sounds from scratch and I save them. I have different categories of leads and basses and pads and Im just about out of memory. Ill have to dump all my factory settings and start over.
Eric
Exactly! I remember not too fondly trying to get a sound…ANY sound…out of the Micromoog at Music-Go-round. A Voyager OS is the perfect thing for me! 
Like many on this forum, I cut my teeth on analog synths in the mid 70. Wrote many a patch down, but after awhile I pretty much just dialed something in from memory . The Dx7(1986) was my first synth that had patch storage. I was one of those that enjoyed programming the DX and quickly filled the internal memory and several carts with original and collected sounds. Since I didn’t have a computer at the time to back up the patches I used patch sheets. You think writing down the parameters for a MiniMoog is bad . Only had to reload a few once after a “oppss” didn’t mean to delete that .
