I have to agree... there's much more out there that I would be happier with (and less costly). But at the moment there's nothing that I'm being tempted by - Well... maybe the Rev2, but that's also out of my price range.Bertotti wrote:Purely a luxury item for me so as much as I would like it I will never have it.
Yes, but you won't have the sound. You can buy cheap VSOs (Violin Shaped Objects) but they're not going to play like a 40,000 Cremonese fiddle.psionic311 wrote:No patch memory, and oscillators that go out of tune? I'll pass.
For $3000 you could get quite a few analogs, including Moogs, and still have change left over.
I agree that there is something special about *that* Moog sound, but if you have a Minitaur or Slim Phatty or Sub 37, that has to be close enough to a Mini-Moog, yes?Joe Gerardi wrote:Yes, but you won't have the sound.

I'll agree that there's much of a muchness out there in the synth world. There are only a few that stand out on their own. The Mini is one of them...
And that makes it uniquely desirable.

When it came out, people hailed the Fairlight as a perfect recreation of sounds. Is that "close enough?"psionic311 wrote: I agree that there is something special about *that* Moog sound, but if you have a Minitaur or Slim Phatty or Sub 37, that has to be close enough to a Mini-Moog, yes?
