I'm a little confused in the meantime about the availability of a Voyager Old School. Is this instrument still manufactured or is it already discontinued?
Many thanks in advance for a clarification in that matter.

Discontinued. An outstanding synthesizer that did not met commercial success enough to make it viable, it seems. Go figure, a better than model D minimoog overall (if a tiny bit less vintage sounding).
They announced producing a last batch of 200 a long time ago, these took a long time to sell. Even if advertised, check for availability. Very few remaining.
I am glad I seized the opportunity, it's my pride and joy.

Old School sound > Voyager w/midi sound?

The math is a little more involved than that:
Old School = (Voyager - (midi + additional modulation features + keyboard transpose))
Therefore...
Old School = Voyager re: sound
Old School < Voyager re: functionality
Old School ~ Voyager re: synth mojo
Class is over. Please read and complete all examples on pages 1 through 10 in the Old School Patch Book for Monday.
There may be a pop quiz!
Have a nice weekend!

Well, I could't resist much longer. A WW Voyager OS is on its way right now to me.
Now waiting, waiting, waiting...

Man thats a steal.

Yes. + shipping + customs (as I live in the EU)
BUT
still this is soooo much cheaper than in europe, even 2nd hand.
Now only few of them left in stock so decision was to be made.
I think it will keep its value over time.

It's too bad the VOS was discontinued, I think it would of made a great poster child in ads.

I would print out the page from nova musik advertising it for $1899, and ask them why you should pay a grand more to buy it from them. And see if they will price match. And make sure they include tax into the price match. Any time I bring in an internet ad I tell them there is no taxes and shipping is free.
