Imagine my disappointment when this turned out to be a clone of the Roland VP-330 Vocoder and not of the Electronic Music Studios "Putney".
I just don’t know which one to get.
A Synthi may be in the pipeline...
Most of these synths are built on much more similar conceptual building blocks than the classic electric guitars so a bit of cloning is fine by me. It's also easier to sell a "clone" than a similar no name design.
Korg will be concerned less, but Moog stuff is already overpriced.
Yep, I did almost do a little wee of excitement when i saw VCS340
Personally I will probably buy a Neutron when they come out but I'm not really interested in their knock-offs.
The EMS VCS3 and AKS are aspirational synths for me. As they haven't been made for decades and I cannot hope to buy an original, a knock-off would be great, thanks very much!
I've got a couple of VSTi 'emulations' - the XILS one and The Putney - but they don't compare to the real things. And then there's the whole tactile experience of a VCS.
Tbh, nothing is going to compare to the ability to tweak stuff on the fly vs moving a mouse to adjust the visual representation of the modelled pot/encoder/switch/jumper.
I doubt if Moog are "shitting themselves", as from my experience they attract a legion of fans not because of 'signature sounds' but because they are almost infinitely tweakable to create stuff that is your own. Yes, you can get other gear that does roughly what a Moog does (or even the Moogerfooger stuff) but nothing sounds *quite* like the real thing.
Will be a couple of months before it's in stock, but can't wait.
I'm torn between the Model D and the Neutron. The graphics might be ugly as sin, but it sounds huge.
