GRollins Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 This thread is starting to look like one of my recent threads, where some folks decided to take offense at all costs. Jeez. Does anyone have an actual ship date for these things? Sweetwater says "late October," but after the extended wait for my Behringer Model D (yes, I know, different product, different company), I'm a bit skittish about shipping dates.

I'm not easily impressed by new gear, but the Moog One is totally amazing its depth of possibilities.

I know of 2 guys on this forum doing exactly that. I also know the Voyager XL is a completely different synth than The One, but I would believe it would be harder now to get the asking price for an XL now that a 61 note poly 8 voice is available for 50% more.

Exactly, that might be the time to buy a Voyager now. When the Prophet 6 came in, the prophet 08 was sold at a very low price....I bought one at that time....Hum, good times for Moog lovers who had never been able to afford one...

Bill H. Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Moog's "One Synth To Rule Them All" approach has undoubtedly produced a gorgeous drool worthy instrument, but in reality it's also physically large, complex, and heavy. There will always be a need for nimble synths that you can just grab and go. I'm not sure this is going to tank the price of anything.

I am not selling off absolutely everything, but have sold several synths and some other recording gear. At this point I will probably wait until I have The One in hand before deciding what else to sell if anything. If anything that would be my Voyager or one of either the Prophet 6 or OB6. But maybe nothing. My biggest seller's remorse is for my Moogerfooger delay. At some point I may have to replace that.

That's why I sold mine - a MF104M. Tough decision - but selling a pedal for as much as a keyboard...... I still have a Minifooger delay, which is not the same, but stylistically in the ballpark without all the CV.

David Emm Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Its easy to feel excited over a new poly Moog, but I'm waiting to hear what it can do that DOESN'T sound "like a Moog." Those specs would indicate that it can step far beyond the defining big brassy-bassy pads & classic leads. After being waylaid by Wendy Carlos's "Timesteps" so long ago, I know a Moog this "modular" inside should be able to do that and more. Yes, its analog; I simply want to hear more of it. You know its in there. Quote I have no magic powers concerning dentistry or cases involving probate, but my Mellotron epics set Jupiter a-quiver.

Do you think that it will kill the Prophet X or will it boost its sales due to the fact that the Prophet X is half the price? Prophet X is a hard-sell already without "help" from the Moog One. Analog purists won't look at it, and peeps who are in love with sample-based synthesis argue that Omnisphere is a better deal. There are some synth freaks out there who think analog synths are boring, digital is cool and fun; and would never consider even the Moog One. Those are among the folks who are looking at Prophet X too, but then their attention quickly turns to Waldorf Quantum, which is a more powerful digital synth. Not that I wouldn't want a PX eventually, but in a niche market (high end synths), it's its own little niche within that niche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two months ago, I paid £750 on Ebay for a boxed mint MF 104 M. Asking (and selling) prices have shot up over the past few months, or at least after Moog officially discontinued the Moogerfooger line. They will likely drop a bit in the months to come. I loved mine to death, but it sacrificed itself to help pay for my Moog One. I will use a less expensive delay in its stead, and if another MF falls in my lap someday and makes sense financially, I'd be happy to reacquire one.

Theo Verelst Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 The long Sweetwater demo is an interesting demo, but not entirely generally clear. I don't think I dislike Moog bringing out a polysynth with these sounds, even when it clearly is devoid of the famous tuning of the man himself. It would be interesting for such a project ot have presets or even "skins" or what you'd call it to make it load sounds of other famous Moogs (a good modular, the mini, some poly, etc.) and even act as them. That would make the price easier! T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
