Moog minimoog

heres a shot of me tryin to post a pic of a synth im lookin into, anyone herethink its worth 3100$http://www.musiciansfriend.com/document?cpd=0OEY&doc_id=99371&g=key&base_pid=709318&index=1

I have the same one. It's fabulous !
Whether its worth the money is up to you but, I've never regretted scraping together £2000 for mine.
Check it out at a store where you can try it out before buying.

The voyager is the sh*t. There's nothing like a mini-moog. This does come as a standard (performer) edition as well as the previously mentioned electric blue edition. There's also a rack version if you prefer to rack your stuff. If paying top dollar is'nt an issue then go for it, but if you're trying to save a few bucks then I'd go for the performer edition (there's really not that much difference in price between the two).

Is it compatible with an mpc 1000 and is it multitimberal so i can layer multiple midi tracks with that thing

No it's not multitimbral, it's a monophonic synth. As far as it being compatible...... it's as compatible as anything else on the market. I take that you're not familiar with the mini-moog. The original was introduced in the early 70's, that's how popular it is.

since it is not multitimberal how would you go about layering and recording multiple mini-moog tracks with a sequence on the mpc- would i have to record a mpc song-sequence+1moog track as the skeleton of the beat then just add more moog tracks 1 at a time. ?

The mini-moog is known for its swavy bass tones & other exotic sounds. It's in a class by itself. As far as a pulling up preset sounds...oh no, it does'nt have any. Here's an example of what I'm talking about, click here. There's samples of its sounds right below the picture.

you woulda have to sequence the moog, record it into something(daw, wave editor, the mpc if you have a model that resamples, etc.), load that back into the mpc(if you want it in the mpc), sequence another part, etc, etc.

definitily worth the $. best hardware synth ever made imo. and local too..., i might just drive up to asheville and pick one up from the factory while paying a lil homage to bob. can't wait till i can afford one.
