Voyager Oogle Love Synth Porn - PHOTO thread
I guess they do look strange! I got an extra set from Chipsforbrains on Ebay and set the originals aside. I was going for the Mini-Minimoog look and painted the slider tops to match the color scheeme on the Mini. Just light sanded the tops and painted them. I would have put the originals back on if it did not look right. But after reassembling the Prodigy, it seemed to look more colorfull and less black and white.till wrote:CZ Rider,
those coloured switch caps do look strange on the Prodigy.
Did you paint them? Or did you found a source for those colored caps?
That Moog 1P came with blank panels where the 960 would have gone. An expensive option back in 1969. So that is a Dotcom Q960 sitting in there. A few people asked me to try some of the functions on the Q960, to see if it matched the performance of the original, like clocking the onboard oscillator to see if it gave 1 v/oct response for a complex waveform generator. Every test gave the desired results. I have been told this is a very close clone of the original, but I can't comment myself since I do not have an original.chinard wrote:hey cz, i notice you have both the dot com 960's and an original moog 960.
Ive been drooling over the dotcom 960 ever since it came out, how do they compare to the original moog?
I purchased my first Q960 after following an Ebay auction fo an Arp sequencer. I was willing to shell out a few bucks, but it ended up going for something like $1200. Thats when I said "screw this" and picked up a brand new Q960 for less than the old Arp that would likly need some maintenence.
The Q960 is a great sequencer, but you will need a power supply and enclosure, so it is still a bit of a DIY solution. I highly recommend this product though.

Q119

Maybe someday, I will add the 960.
Did you add your own power supply and case? It would be great to hear some of your tunes.

Chinard, GregAE & Wookie,
Thanks for your commentary on your Ion/Voyager compatibility. I've had an Ion for a little over 3 years and am quite pleased with it. I've got an opportunity to acquire a used Voyager and am seriously considering my first foray into analog. Your comments are valuable. Thanks!

Here are a couple of shots of my rig.
The 01/W will soon be replaced by a Hammond XK-1 - it's on back order and will arrive at my doorstep in about a week or so. Can't wait.
I also second the comments about the Ion and the Voyager complementing each other very well. If it only had aftertouch. But for the price tag you can't have everything.

Thank you! Photographing is one of my other hobbiesGregAE wrote:Great pix! The first and third Voyager shots look like an ad (and I mean that in a complimentary way)
Incidently, I once took a quite nice picture (at least I thought it was) of my PAiA 9700 modular which I then edited to fit as a desktop wallpaper and sent it to PAiA for them to offer as a free download. Alas, I never heard back from them.

Yes, absolutely. Having such a cool sounding polyphonic counterpart is a great thing. And it's quite straight forward to program, almost as simple as the Voyager.Nice rig, too. It seems that the Ion certainly has its share of fans (I'm one).

I got my XK-1 a couple months ago and it sounds great! The Leslie effect is pretty much dead on. Select any preset, turn off all vibrato and chorus. Turn BRAKE on and the other 2 Leslie controls off. Wait for the lower drum to spin down (in the event the the preset comes up with the Leslie spinning). Then, press ON and listen to the doppler effect as the top horn starts to spin. VERY realistic. Let me know if you have any questions once you get it.The 01/W will soon be replaced by a Hammond XK-1
