How about a duophonic Voyager?

Would that be possible, or do you think that's a good idea.

I personally think a simple sequencer and arpeggiator would be really cool on a Moog!

Yes, I know it's not a Moog...but its as close as you are currently going to get to what you are asking.

Not quite what I was after though....

I was thinking more of a built in sequencer on the Voyager, like the one on my Pro-One, but perhaps a bit more modern with more patterns/note storage etc.

well thats simple. Get the CV expander for your voyager, and then get one (or both) of these:

mhmmm, you don't need the cv-expander! All CV-Inputs are directly located at the voyager, the expander is for the outputs. By the way, these Doepfer sequencer got midioutputs as well. They are very, very nice sequencers, but we had this discussion allready.

See, i didn't know you could do that, I'm still new at these things, so basically, I can get one of those, and plug it into the cv input, and program a sequence into it, and the Voyager will play?

Yup, you'll be good to go! Although it may end up being cheaper just getting a laptop and running midi from there.

If you go the CV route, you would be able to modulate things like LFO, filter cutoff, the envelope generators, etc. Unless of course the voyager is fully midi controllable?

I have got an old laptop, but its an old mac G3, I don't even think it has midi ports on it, and its painfully slow and unreliable...:(

I'm the kind of person who does not like to rely on computer software.

Can anyone recommend me a good sequencer to use, preferably something not too expensive?

I dont think any computer ever came with a standard MIDI output. You generally have to buy the USB variety. 50 USD would be enough for a midiman uno, which controls my Waldorf Q+ without any problems.

As far as your computer being too slow, I wouldnt worry about it. MIDI sequencing is one of the least computationaly expensive music related processes that you could have a computer do. Heck, I bet your G3 would be fine at recording audio as well.

That's not eitirely true. I'm sure this one comes with midi output, as it has a midi port on the sound card!
