It says now shipping, but has anyone received their unit? Thoughts/Impressions?

Bad ass...! can you adjust the brightness level of the blue light on the control panel?

Beautiful!
What does the extra knob do on the right end of the keyboard?

Is this a new standard option?

That must be blue light brightness control.

Yesss! That would be the "coolth" knob! Turn it all the way to the left and you have a normal looking machine, only black. Dim your studio lighting, twist this knob and feel the grin (preferably while showing the machine to somebody else.)

I hadn't thought about it, but Anniversary folks get an extra Moog knob!

Now the panel backlight level needs to optionally be modulated by the LFO as you roll the mod wheel, or something like that. Darn, I wish things like this didn't cross my mind. ;-)

Wow.
Nice Picture! I cannot wait for mine, it will probably take about two weeks. The extra knob, does it control the Mod wheel illumination?
I would like Moog to offer red lights so you could play Luke skywalkers Moog one day (blue lights) and Darth Vaders Moog another day (red lights)...lol

cikira, you lucky dog! I pre-ordered mine end of Jan and am still waiting. I guess they're shipping in limited quantities. Also, has anyone checked out

The website lists an Anniversary edition available in maple exclusively through them. Cost a few hundred more, but the maple looks nice.

My Signature ed was Maple, but I'll go for the standard black wood. Does the "Voyager" wording and the outputs on the top panel light up too. I reckon they should have illuminated the Moog logo on the back too, but might cause problems importing it in the UK. Modulating the light to the LFO might be another idea.

Yup, the Voyager logo lights up. See the pic Cikira posted earlier

I don't think any of the top panel legends light up, IE the MIDI jacks and 1/4" jacks.
