I need something to do while my MemoryMoog is being serviced..
Would you rather have:
A)An 8 voice One
B)8 polychained Voyager RME’s
Financial difference irrelevant.
Sound wise, feel wise, feature wise, power wise, etc. Which would you rather have, and why?
One Vs Polychain Voyager
Re: One Vs Polychain Voyager
Daft Punk toured with many Voyagers and I'm not certain whether they utilized them as poly synths, however. My experience of polychaining analog monosynths wasn't worthwhile in the end. The sounds become muddy and it's difficult to match the synth's sounds.

Re: One Vs Polychain Voyager
I'd probably go with the one, for ease of control. Although it would be a fascinating experiment to see what you could do with 8 RME?
Would it be best to actually polychain them, or use a midi splitter instead, fed from a keyboard controller?
With a good controller you could send bank & cc commands to all of them.

Re: One Vs Polychain Voyager
With a MIDI splitter, the eight RMEs would play unison. You need something to handle the assignment of polyphonic played notes to the different RMEs. So polychaining is the easiest way. Or find some MIDI tool (soft or hardware) to do this using 8 parallel MIDI outputs.
keep on turning these Moog knobs
Sequence:
Prodigy * minimoog '79 * Voyager * MF102 * MF103 * MF104z * MP201 * Taurus 3 * Minitaur * Sub Phatty * MF105 * Minimoog 2017+ MUSE * One 16

Re: One Vs Polychain Voyager
Ah, yes something like a MIDI BRO, or MIDI MUSO which is CV
Actually the MUSO would work with polychaining moog modulars, since it's CV. I wonder if anyone has tried that yet?

Two other candidates:
- Space Brain Circuits MidiVolts: allows to control voice distribution over 4 CV/Gate channels
- Doepfer A-190-5, which I've only been told it can do the job.

Cool!
Once I get my system 35, 55, model 10 & model 15, I'll give that a shot

Haha
Curiously enough, that MidiVolts may be even rarer than any ofthe Moog modulars!
