LOL! I play with woman keyboardist... she just hates forums... She pretty much uses a 88 key as a controller for everything...tommyecho wrote:lots of synth girls here in Austin Also, there's xombieplox here on the forums. . .
I agree with Kenneth, though, insofar as there is always room for more ladies

See and that is the main reason I like this whole idea. One of these or a minibrute + beatmachine and a looper and you could have a rig that fit [sort'a] in a backpack that would kill DJsmoogsaurus wrote:Well...If I was 17 again - with limited cash, and if Moog make this small synth at a reachable price,I'd buy it!
maybe plastic moulded case - no reason what so ever that it wont be as stylish as the previous moogs, dont know who their designer is? but they come up with some phantastic phatty designs!
Just because its cheap ( and short ) does'nt mean its bad.
Think Moog are going to ensnare the younger guys/gals with this one - and there's nothing wrong with that!
and with MIDI, just hook it up to your master keyboard!

Re: prototype
I'd sold a wee Jen SX1000 to a girl here in the UK, Holly Lerski,she'd sent me her CD, and wanted to incorporate synths..that CD is still one of my favourite all timers! I've expanded my musical repetiore as i've grown older - sure synths still play a big part. But the whole point is synths can be used in any musical style,by anyone (male of female.) does'nt matter, if girls make good music,then I'll listen! And from a retail perspective, their cash is as good as anyone's!

There's always been a lot of women in electronic music ~ from Laurie Anderson, http://www.complex.com/music/2010/08/th ... e-anderson [Roland VP-330!] right back to the foundations with Laurie Spiegel, http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... ChqEEz31eE ~ and http://www.viddler.com/v/213c71b
Check out Joan LaBarbara, Meredith Monk, Suzanne Ciani, Clara Rockmore, Lydia Kavina,
...Wendy Carlos~ d'oh! Not to mention the gazillions of women fronting synth heavy pop acts like (all of them!?) but for example Toronto's Austra at Moogfest 2011

@mudfuzz- yeah we have two girls on synths including me in my group of 7 (another friend of mine does vocals, but not often). Whoever thinks girls don't like synths doesn't know what he's talking about - whatever. Like your friend I just don't go on forums often. What kind of music u make?
Laurie Anderson rawks! (Didn't joy division / new order also have a girl on synths back in the day?) Cocteau twins too.
Other women in electronic music are members of sneaker pimps, yelle, passion pit, yeah yeah yeahs, ladytron, and I went to a show in Miami where a girl was playing a Moog source - that was hot!

Re: prototype
Wait a second... YouTube comments says it was 'Seth' on guitar. I could have sworn that was "Bob #1" : )
Nice though. Is that the same Voyager that you play on that pier... How's it holding up?

Re: prototype
Sorry, but 25 keys is not enough for me.
If your playing is such that it is sufficient, that is cool but you know what? You could still limit yourself to 2 octaves even if the keyboard had 3.
If having them there is visually confusing, you could use construction paper and fold a nice little cover hiding an octave.
Defend it all you want but it is a weakness requiring excuses and being defended. If it had 3 octaves, this conversation wouldn't be happening. No one would be posting "damnit...why so many keys??? "
For me 2 octaves is a big disappointment. I think I might have even preferred 3 octaves of mini keys ....and I HATE mini keys.
If they are stuck on imitating the minibrute's range, I wish they would then offer a couple versions, one with 25 and one with 3 octaves or so. Or one with no keyboard at all - a slim-sub-phatty!
