Voyager or Minimoog?

A few weeks ago I did a reunion gig with a band I played with back in 1981 (showing my age here)

In this song (featuring a drummer with zero sense of metronome) I am sometimes playing Voyager, sometimes Minimoog. Which is which?

This is of course the point of the post. The Voyager and Mini are close. However, I don't believe a Voyager without any signal modification can sound that close to a Mini.

Interesting variation of guesses - EMwhite had the correct answer.

Yeah MC, I can hear you playing both at once during the solo's! Double fisted Moog action FTW! :D

Not only would it be a win, but it would be an utter dessimation if both taurus pedals were triggered from their respective Minis. lol

Ha! And I was listening through a Dell laptop speaker; surprised I was correct.

The Mini is more aggressive sounding. After I posted, I thought, perhaps MC was trying to trick us by creating a patch on the Mini that was very smooth and on the Voyager that was more raw;

Had a question about the organ though... was that your B3 or one of those new fangled solid state models?

The Voyager simply can't do what the Mini can do...and by that I mean have that aggressive sharp edge that is unmistakably a D.

It's easy to spot the Voyager as the Voyager can do what the Model D can't do.
