my moog is in a state so it can't really be used live , so i need a new synth basically , however is there anything modern that has that warm sound , or should i just track down another moog? - a prodigy perhaps?

another moog.
however.. you COULD get one of those small usb-ish synth-thingies that kind of look like a small moog (you have to connect wires and stuff), but it controls and is controlled by a computer program.. kind of strange, but the guy in the local shop loved it!!!

don't ask here. 99% of the people here use software. but you could try the Andromeda. it probably won''t have the same sound as your moog because a moog has typical sound.
but I know some people with an andromeda. they have dropped in price too recently. if you wait a bit maybe you may get a good deal on e-bay. but if I where you I'd get the moog fixed it will be ALLOT cheaper.

damn! that's a nice looking synth! i remember seeing a pic from the nin site wit that monster in it, so i guess you could say trent uses one. though i'm not sure where, could be a new item on the new album which you'll have to wait to hear.

Andromeda(?) - It's the kind of synth you'll either love or hate - It's not quite in the league of the super synths though IMO - Quite a few ppl were dissapointed, and the envelopes are a little slow, so some bass sounds may sound a little fluffy.
I'm looking for the Moog sound at the moment.
Studio Electronics make the best clones - The ATC-1 is a 2 oscillator synth, that comes shipped with the Moog ladder filter as in a Minimoog.
You can also buy replacement filters like the TB-303, ARP 2600, and Oberheim.
About £500 s/h
Only downside is Moog Source style interface, and 2 osc's instead of the Mini's 3.
The SE-1 is an exact Mini replica though.
Everyone in hiphop uses the Studio Electronics stuff - You find them in almost every studio these days... Mix presense and warmth are mind blowing.
Otherwise, on a budget, the Waldorf Pulse has a Moog ladder filter - VERY close to the Mini's, except a little more stable.
3 oscillators and memories - Only downside is DCO's instead of VCO's - So it has a sharper, thinner sound, with less mix presense than a real Moog.
Very cheap s/h though! Bargain of the century - Sounds a lot like a Pro One/Moog hybrid - But slightly colder and more digital than a vintage.

Get something completely different aswell, with the money you save, by getting a soft synth or a replica. Don't spend silly money on the name Moog.
Personally, I think Moog is overrated terribly, no-one ever seems to mention Oberheim in the same terms as Moog.
And most people wouldn't wear ARP or EMS T-shirts either!
No, get a cheap Moogish device/vsti and get a Pulse with the money saved, because they are very good. Or a Waldorf Microwave, or something unmoog-like.
On no accounts buy the very overpriced Voyager or Andromeda, unless you really like it. Then still don't get the voyager. Bob Moog is a cheeky money maker. £220 for a classic "Big Briar MF-103" phaser!! I can get all the parts and make my own in a few hours for under 30 quid easily!
Listen to J Swift on this one, he is a learned individual when it comes to this sort of thing. I am merely opinionated.

J swift, I'm looking for a good sound proccessor. Like the sherman filter but a little less noisey. Something that can totally change the sound. Something really analogue. I modded my 202 for filter In and I loved that before it got fried. I am also blown away by the EMS vocoder 5000's sounds. Not a huge vocoder fan, but I love that machine's sound. An ems synthi would probably be perfect, but alas.
Something really gritty and plasticy sounding. Any ideas?
