I haven't, but because of it my Polymoog has a very unique sound! :lol:

The plan is to convert a room in my house into a studio, and I need an extra synth to fill the room...! :)

Yes, but do you really need another monophonic Moog, which is inferior to your Voyager? This is the question I am asking myself. I think we need to hear the thing first, eh?

Maybe not, but we only live once. And yes I am eager to hear what the Little Phatty is capable of.

Don't like the name, but at least it's not plastered obnoxiously on the synth..it's very subtle. The synth looks great..I don't know if i'll get one but the silly name they chose will not be an issue.. It almost looks like a smaller version of the old Moog Lyra, the prototype synth that Keith Emerson toured with during the Brain Salad Surgery Tour...

I think for my money, I'd rather expand my Voyager via the VX351/CP251 and a some MoogerFoogers. I guess it depends on whether you play live or not. I am studio based and into producing records, so I don't really think it's worth having another monophonic Moog (which sounds remarkably similar to the Voyager) when I could have the other bits of kit and get even more from the machine I already own.
