Was watching this performance today - some very cool songs, but what really struck me is that I'd never seen a band quite like this one before: Five pieces: 1. Acoustic guitar + vocals 2. Bass guitar + backing vocals 3. Drums 4. Hammond, organs, etc 5. Piano, Rhodes and Minimoog Voyager The reason I...

oo I had never heard or Eric Norlander until I viewed this thread. He's a contemporary "master of the MiniMOOG" -- a slightly less technical, yet more accessible, Keith Emerson -- and he was born the same year as me. I really like his mix of MiniMOOG, A6 Andromeda, Hammond M3 organ, and Mellotron o...

I'm using my MG-1, so no mod wheel OR aftertouch

I'd love to have one

That does do it rather well - thanks

I'm looking for some help in creating something similar to the Minimoog lead sound at 0:33 in this video



I know I need to experiment, but if someone could give me a nudge in terms of waveforms, modulations, etc. it would be helpful.

Scratchy pots and sliders (due to the usual foam goop problem) and the switch in the CV-in jack wasn't closing properly, causing it to only play a single pitch regardless of the key pressed.

Sounds great, too! I think I'll spend the next two days listening to filter sweeps

Hrm, at that price maybe I should give up my quest for a Rogue and just get a LP.

OT, but where are you seeing LPs for $800?

It's very tempting to grab a Moog Rogue or MG-1 on EBay - they seem to be consistently going for $450 or so.

Haha, I should have known that I'd get more options rather than narrowing down my list

Thanks for the input guys, I'll try to get my hands on the JP-8000 and Nova to demo.

I know, I know, first post is a "help me find a synth!" post I primarily play guitar and bass, and I'd like to start taking keys a bit more seriously. My only experience on keys is piano lessons as a kid and messing around with a Roland Alpha Juno a few years ago. I'm into the whole "prog rock" thin...
