MOOG badges? I'd love a chrome MOOG badge to go above all the JEEP badges on my Compass! Then I could get my Compass in the Moog Car pictures section of PHOTOS. :mrgreen:

When you say that the pitch stays the same on those keys, do you mean that you cannot bend the pitch on those keys using the pitch bend, or that the keys are all playing the same note in the same octave? Either way, you might want to call Moog tech support and discuss it with them. It sounds like your OS may need a little work.[/quote]

The pitch stays the same in that octave (the pitch bend wheel does work
on those notes, but has the same pitch as the previously pressed note
that does work) and the envelope won't trigger. But when you press
those certain "flawed" keys a bit harder, than it will trigger the envelopes
and the pitch will sound correctly. Some keys act worse than others.
Would that be a typical keyboard scanner problem you think? Or might it
be a misaligned keybed/keyboard (mechanical) problem?[/quote]


No matter what might be causing it, if I were you I'd contact Moog Music for an RMA, the sooner the better.

My $0.02, humbly submitted.[/quote]

It has been a while since I posted about this problem, but I got it back
from repair. And it turned out to be a mechanical problem, the keyboard
was replaced. Now it works perfectly. Thanks for the advise!
BTW, I'm still amazed how good this thing sounds. I have a Little Phatty
Tribute and an original Minimoog (10***) as well, but the OS has a
creamier, ballsier sound (the Minimoog sounding more crisp, and
snappier). Sometimes it's almost like I hear an RA Moog/Moog Musonic
Mini, or even Moog modular! Though this might be something for another
topic.
