I need a new pocket protector, as mine is looking ratty, but I still indeed use it. I keep five pens in it at all times. And I wear it to work, along with my awesome sunglasses. http://voltor07.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2t2je3 Kenneth, I would totally hang out with you if I was in MN. :wink:

I propose we build a new city. A city of our own. A city where people like ourselves are not tossed by the wayside! A city where synthesists rule and guitarists must work for their glory! What say you?

You sir, are a beautiful visionary.

Any who I be back. I have the Moog 75th birthday limited tee, I had to have it. Bob Moog is certainly one of my inspirations. Just need the gear to go with it. Did put more thought into it. If I can find the Voyager OS for a fair price will go with one of those, otherwise will go with the Voyager Performer. Really had considered the Little Phatty and CP-251, but I really want something with complete hands on control for once. I deserve to be spoiled. :P One thing I saw on the Voyager that bothered me though, can only set PWM to all oscillators or none. Is there something I'm overlooking? Kind of a let down if not, guess will have to learn to get over it.

You can do PWM on 1 osc with another osc or manually by turning the pot.

It's not really that much of a limitation.


Something you might want to consider also, the type of control you are talking about above, you can really do with a modular synth. If you want real hands on control, thats the best way to go.

Ah, that's good to know about using one osc to do pwm on another. Modular would be nice... Totally forgot about that, being so caught up with going Moog. Dot Com modular comes to mind. MacBeth and Doepfer as well.

Building a dot com as we speak. It's going to be awesome. :mrgreen:

Saw can get a Ladder filter based on the original Moog design from the Dot Com system... Will have to look into this more...

From what I gather, it's the closest thing to a Moog filter you can get without getting a Moog filter. This is from accomplished synthesists, not from my own experiences.

Was reading that. One had said something about the only real difference is that the Dot Com filter sounded "cleaner" than the original. Could get the Studio 22 with a ladder filter added for under $3,000. If only could afford the Studio 110. One of these days...
