LP a limited edition?

[Eddison]

Hi Baax, Thanks for those sounds, and thanks also for taking the trouble to put up those sound also Jeepo, very kind (mature lol). I am finally getting some decent examples of how the LP sounds.

Dada, the whole video you put up is the LP? that is the first real excellent example of what it can do- the moog site should use it for a demonstration.
You didn't use any other plug in? It's difficult to understand what the base sounds like in a sample, without the context of a piece of music. But I wasn't aware the LP can do all of what the prodigy can do. this is really great news, Ok, if it can do that then listening to music created with the prodigy is very exciting.

I agree that there's not many YouTube videos that I find inspiring for the Little Phatty. I got one because I was listening to guys like Daft Punk and MSTRKRFT and knew they were using the Voyager a lot. The LP was an affordable entry to the sound and legacy that is Moog. I was also completely sick of using a mouse and screen diving with my digital and softsynths.

That sums up exactly how I feel- pretty frustrating trying to get a good feel for what the thing sounds like, with no chance of being able to test one. You get it dude ! (thank God)

""I bought my Tribute without hearing one single note from one. Guess it must have been because I already owned a Voyager PE !!!""

You think the LP is that good? See, I was going to buy a voyager because I wanted that outer space type sound, and I like the 80's futuristic kind of music, and thought the voyager is a safe bet, but if you are saying that the LP can do this, then I am thinking that I should gamble, and get a LP, without unfortunately being able to try one.

This gives another small idea of what the LP can do also..

Thank you for your reply anoteoftruth, but I feel your comments say more about you, than they do about me.

Dada,

I don't care if you call be a Trolls hairy a*** lol ! But the LP is like the source?
Excellent I'll do a few searches on it and see what comes up.
Thats all I am looking for !! please place your projectile weapons on the floor

Now that I know you have listened to that demo I'm going to remove it, as it has served it's purpose.
You asked about low resonance and the overload. I almost always use low resonance. The overload is useful for making the LP sound like older moogs, not that I have an older moog to compare it to, but others have made the comparison somewhere on this forum. If you want an analog mono synth the LP will not disappoint you. Since I got to know mine all the analog modeling synths I've played with at the music store have either sounded cheesy, been too confusing and full of menus to program, or both.

did you listen to my demo?

Hi JWaltman,

Sorry I confused your post with Dada, But yes, I wrote this when I listened to your song..

It IS fat, and I really liked it. How did you record the song, and sync the different tracks?
Technically very good, and has good balance, creatively funky! well done.

Thats what I'm looking for- the LP can do what the older moogs can do, but maybe is more reliable? In other words it is not that limited at all.

Hi Eddison,

All synth sounds you here are indeed only little phatty. But as might be clear I did use some EQ and panning FX of course. And a chorus on the c64 like backing, to widen the image.

Besides the ride/kick/snare/bitcrushed percussion/Crash everything really is little phatty. This synths totally rocks

As a matter of fact I offered moog the possibility to use this, I didn't get a reply from them though. But I'm glad you liked it! It's the first moog I own and it's nothing like I ever had before, and compared to a Prodigy it's a godsend you have room for patches now

Edit: For your other question. I only used the phatty in the entire process. Recording a part and then looking for a new additional part. After the basics of the song were done I began adding additional synth parts, but still only using the LP. Recorded and edited in Logic Pro 9.

[Eddison]

I must say I am astonished by the devotion people have with this machine, but you now how it is, you like to hear it for yourself. People can explain their experience, but a person needs to experience themselves sometimes.
There is nothing worse than spending cash and wishing you had waited some more time and got the real deal (voyager or pro one for instance).
I got this http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/nov06/a ... phatty.htm
And again people going turning to mush. I don't want to buy one because it is a good value synth for the money, but because it is a fantastic synth.

Can the LP can do this-

The sounds and features in that video are what I am looking for, if it can do these effects except for the sequencer, then I am definitely buying one.

Thanks for your comments.

Yes, it can do that, I spend lots of time basking in bass like that, it feels so good, I think I might be a bass-o-holic and doubt i'm the only one here who needs their daily fix of moog bass (you know who you are). I'm confident that you will be very happy with the LP should you decide to get one.

[magnet]

Um... If you buy an LP, a sequencer, a delay- You probably won't be able to hold a job.
I kicked up my Voyager tonight and dialed in a sound, and got LOST. I mean that. LOST. Like a meditation that made hours melt. You just go there. If you buy, you can always sell.- take the dive into it. I'm thinking of getting a Laser Harp to go with it. I mean, it is welcoming ,awesome.

If you can afford a Voyager, an amp, and some delay, you ~will~ fall "in Love" with it. An Lp is very, very good. There are differences. I think 2 "slim phatties" and a 61-note controller would trump it up, but the Voyager has some excellent features. I guess I just like the knobs, or something--No, It's the *sound*.

Just do it.

[Eddison]

Dave...my mind is going...I can feel it
I'm definitely buying one ! another obsession lol! but there is something amazing about the creative process huh? I mean creating something that one has no prior knowledge, or experience of is kinda weird?
Anyway, i'm very excited about getting one.

You really think these would trump the voyager (ed is a bit shocked)???

Well, not with the wood treatment costing , nor would I want to rack mount them. Until I hear that the poly chaining is worked out, then, "no", I would rather have the "Voyager". You can use several external touch-pads to replace the one the "Voyager" has, through MIDI. Like I said, there ~are~ differences between the "Voyager", my "Tribute", and the later versions of the "LP", and "Slim Phatty".

But since this thread started with the question of whether the "Little Phatty" is "worth" the $$$-
No Question the answer is yes. I use a Peavy KB100 Amp, and find the 15" woofer truly brings the instrument to life. The keyboard action is, IMO, wonderful. Ideally I'd rather have satellites, and a sub-woofer, and a 72 or 88 controller of the same weight and action. But it is compact, and has a wild ability.
Best-

[Eddison]

Ok yeah I see now. I was going to save for the voyager because normally when you spend 2x as much on a product, you get 5x the features.

But the poly chaining will probably we worked out. So even if I was to get the LP, and down the line if I got the slim P as well, a good controller and delay and a sequencer, I would have something at least as good as the voyager, and maybe better. So either way I can't loose with the LP.
