Looks cool!

But who said it's going to go to production? Sauce? (Source)

Edit: apparently Big City Music

If the 351, 352 and 251 are available already, why not just go all the way and add breakouts to the VCO->VCF->VCA paradigm?

It is a beautiful synth... but nothing that gets me excited... come on polyphony.

On the other hand...

That keyboard would make a mighty fine controller for expander modules...

The second one is suitable for framing; (I was never big on rumor sites but I got sucked into this one)... OK, now I'm done.

Hmmm, poly expansion via modular reintroduction?

if this were to be polyphonic - i'd bet they would sell many!

but a $5K monosynth. hrm. that's going to be a little difficult in this economic climate IMO.

Then you'll be sitting outside in the rain cuddling it. Be sure to keep a tent and an amp at least. :wink:

I think it looks perverse.

Nah... I suggest you take cold shower instead and get yourself a steaming mug of coffee - and then start up your LP and relax. :wink:

It's Real Folks!

I'm holding a copy of the October issue of Keyboard Magazine
in my hand and it's on the front cover!

And the cover folds out so you can see the whole thing.

It's called "The Super Special Moog Collector's Issue".

Inside is an article named "The Minimoog at 40",
and another called "Bob Moog Lives" along with a review
of the Taurus 3.

Happy reading!

from matrixsynth comments:

Captain Analog said...

fear not, smaller things (and different things) are coming too. Just have to be patient. This was a quick idea to pay a bit of homage to the Minimoog, which turns 40 this year. Before you ask, no we didn't have time to do an exact replica Minimoog in tribute to the 40th anniversary of the Mini. That would have been awesome but we did not have the time and resources to do it. Cheers!

Well Amos said he was working on a couple of things months back.


Why is the Moog forum the last to know of such things?

i love the ribbon, i would welcome the 5 octaves if it were an upbar for a 4 voice expansion-unit ( or two of them ) too.
otherwise: why would anybody put the patchbay left and the knobs right , while most people are righthanded , so play there solo's righthanded while turning knobs ( not occassional patching cables ) with their lefts ? guess the korg guys thought of that already.
on the whole ;i might be an exception, but i'm not waiting for another coloured voyager, i'm very happy with my model already . newcommers and collecters however might be for sure.
maybe the ribbon , with hold function, comes seperate ?
