If that's really a poly, I'm selling damn near all my synths for it.

Actually, I was going to sell a butt ton of them anyhow, but now I have a real reason to.

I don't know...I'm dubious. Not that it's real, but that its a poly. It's probably not a poly. But that would f-ing rule.

I hope its a poly.

I feel like a little girl!

[raffor]

In case this is real...this is an odd thing. Why they did not put another 2-3 modulation busses on there with different modulators and destinations. At least this way, everything would have been in program storage!

[evildragon]

Looks sexeh.

 

$5000?! O_O Damn, I'd rather have a Solaris then.

[AnalogBastard]

All right, I take back all of the digs I made about Moog getting into guitars...all is forgiven, Moog is the S#%T. Great find Goldphinga

You didnt scroll down did ya... 'An expanded Minimoog Voyager expands your mind...http://bit.ly/aO1VO8' moogmusicinc,tue31 17:05 via web

When I clicked on that link it went to some Youtube video of a Minimoog Voyager connected with a modular...

It's possible the message was there but pulled...

seeing as how the modern moog's synth line has basically been releasing different versions of the same thing, this seems perfectly logical. at the core it's probably the exact same minimoog voyager board but packaged together with the expansions, a ribbon and a few more octaves on the keyboard.

that said, i'd dump my voyager old school (dual lowpass edition) in a heartbeat for the upgrade.

[carbon111]

You saw what happened with the Old School edition -- there weren't enough customers to support continued production of that model even though it was more affordable than the standard Voyager.

The OS was intentionally a limited edition from the start. They knew there was a very narrow market for it. I'm willing to bet the same will hold true for the XL.

[Purity_Control]

I feel like a little girl!

That'd be illegal in most jurustictions

I know what you mean though. It does look hot.

[TropicThink]

*faints*

[mildbill]

Lots of people will 'ooh and aah' over this, but the amount of people who will actually put down that amount of cash for it will be relatively small.
Nice looking unit though.

[ChristianRock]

I'm very, very surprised they had the guts to produce this. I honestly didn't think it would be a good idea, especially since you can kind of buy the parts separately (except for the ribbon and the extra octave) and save over 1000 dollars.

 

It does look neat though.

[Franz Schiller]

Yeah, so it ain't a poly.

I feel kind of stupid.

But I have a theory: I think there's a marketing guy at Moog, who says, "in order to be relevant, Moog has to release some new product every year or so." Chances are if a poly is in development, its a year or so off, so they have to release something in the meantime, so they make a hundred of the Voyager XLs, just to keep general Moog buzz going.

So I think the Voyager XL is a stop gap product release... while we wait for the poly,

Well, it's real and costs as much as a used car.

 

Any takers?

 

Let me know when and if the bring the Old School back.

[AnalogBastard]

You can still get a new Old School Voyager if you really want one , there are still some out there. Don't count on Moog to resume production again, there wasn't a large enough demand for it to justify a sustained production.

[Citizen Klaus]

Well, I think we can safely say that the Voyager XL is the ultimate keyboard controller for a dotcom-style modular. Do you think they'll release a version with a walnut chassis?

 

If I had $5,000 USD just lying around, I'd totally get one. Unfortunately, I don't.

Me.

Probably.

How would you like a lightly-used whitewash one at a nice discount?

[MuzikB]

Me. Probably. How would you like a lightly-used whitewash one at a nice discount?

Holy S$@T! Are you serious?

[carbon111]

Totally.

I don't see anything besides somebody trying to sell me a communications service.

Wait, is this YOUR communications service?

[AnalogBastard]

Me. Probably. How would you like a lightly-used whitewash one at a nice discount?

See.

I'd love to have that Whitewash Voyager but I'd have to sell a bit. Remember, I just moved and had to pay college fees.

I'll talk to him about it over that beer we're going to have soon enough. I'm definitely game.
