New Mooger chiming in

Hi all,

I just wanted to drop in and say hello. I hang out on the HC KSS forum a lot, but since I am the proud owner of a new Voyager Signature Lunar with the classic ash cabinet I thought I would take a gander over here and introduce myself.

I am a 43-year old music hobbyist, both acoustic and electronic. I have played guitar since age 12 but have always been interested in electronic music, sound manipulation, recording, and audio signal processing and engineering. I got into keys and synths several years ago as one of too many hobbies and liked it so much that I started taking real piano lessons last fall.

Daytime I work R&D in the Display and Graphics Business Laboratory at 3M Company here in Minnesota. We are on break for two weeks now so I am getting some much-needed R-n-R, which is great for family and musical fun.

I am still in the process of getting to know my new Voyager and am really enjoying the visceral experience of the big knobs, touch pad, and sound combined with the electronic controls admitted by the operating system. I am finding that this synth really encourages me to play - sometimes for hours (... and suddenly it is two hours later, the kids are going to bed, and I have to plug in the headphones, heh). Today I am sending out my form for the CP-251 that Moog is giving away with purchase until the end of the month. I am planning on expanding the system as time goes on; first stop will be the ring modulator. I have some nice digital and analog effects already.

Welocme and congratulations ! I am sure you'll jhave many hours of fun and use outof the Voyager. The Ring Mod is a nice first choice of MoogerFoogers, also look at the MF103 Phase Shifter and MF105 MuRF. Depending on how much control you want also pick up the VK 351.

There is no turning back now, soon you will be attending the MUA (Moog Users Anonymous) meetings. "Hi my name is brian and I am..... "

have fun and remember to take a break to eat and sleep every few days

High,
My name is Eric and im a Synthoholic.

Welcome to the forum.

Good choice with the Ring MOdulator, Consider the Freqbox as well for an extra Oscillator and with the Cp251 provides for an extra place for some S&H. You most definately need the Vx351.

Novamusik.com has some extremely great deals on Foogers...I dare you to check it out.

Good pick on that Signature Voyager!
