Predictions for new Moog Products this year

[thealien666]

SAVED BY TECHNOLOGY, in Toronto Canada ~ that was the year it came out
when it was the cover girl on the front of KEYBOARD magazine.

Haha, yeah, that store...

Geddy Lee, of fame Canadian rock group Rush, has stated in an interview that they were sponsored by that company/store in the eighties, for all their synthesizers needs, and that the fact that the group deviated from their rock origins towards overcrowded synths in their music was largely due to agressive merchandising on the part of Saved By Technology. He said that they should have called themselves: Destroyed By Technology, as their music suffered a lot from it, back in those days...

the MP201 was a great box, but it has flaws associated with various revisions (triplets? Midi sync?)
I would love to see a MP201 sequel, maybe MP301? Everyone that I see uisng them has them up on a table next to their other modular gear, so I imagine they could lose the gas pedal and the fancy box and go for a 1/2 RU sized box with CV jacks and (please) dedicated gate jacks.

I would love to see a new Moog which resurrects the analog string sounds of the 70's-80's using divide down circuits. Something like an Arp or Crumar string machine, but with Moog filters and modulation!
Judging from the Herb Deutch video looks like we may see an all knobs version of the phatty?
I love the idea, but I like saving patches even more.

It probably has patch memory a la Minitaur, with a dedicated editor.

Looks and SOUNDS great so far, though hoping it's more than 2 octaves keyboard. (Are you reading this Moog? Please make it 3 octaves!)

apparently there is a new pedal too...cant wait to see that now!

WHA!? Curiosity has peaked!! Savings account started!

Moog would do well to respond to the MacBeth Micromac with a cut down Voyager in a desktop Taurus like box.

Ooh yummy. Might have been close to the mark if I do pat myself on the back. Shame I then ruined it with

Actually, now I change my mind. Macbeth have done it so well, Moog shouldn't bother

yeah I forget what forum it was in, maybe vse, but someone with "a friend at a music retailer" kind of situation said that moog is bringing a new synth and new pedal to namm

OTOH there is a lot of stuff that appears at NAMM that never sees retail.
Us bassists are still waiting to see the new all tube bass amps form Mesa Boogie, debuted at last years NAMM IIRC.

How about they put a Mic on Herb's MULTIDRIVE new Model V ~ so it looks something like this?

people who want all functions to be immediately accessible— for performance, physical interaction, and creative spark. I prefer my synthesizers to be machines and not dots I see through a glowing window.

This!

Going back to what was said about a new analog vocoder: YES. In a Fooger format, please?

COTK announced a modular vocoder in November. I've not heard any demos yet though.

I prefer my synthesizers to be instruments not machines

It's all about expressiveness an the Voyager is alive with that !!

Exactement! C'est ça!!!

I'm sure I'm not the first person to feel like DR. BOB is actually somewhere deep within those Oscillators and Filters of my "machine". The Touch Surface Controller, Expression Pedals & Control Processors, Ribbon Controller etc. ~ Sample & Hold and the ever evolving sound of CV ins & outs ~ all that organic and intuitive connectivity working together make MOOG instruments practically breath ~ it's like SPOOKY, man
