Moog Slim Phatty – Rack of Moog Little Phatty

As posted prviously, here’s a real image, looks like Moog racked the Little Phatty as well – good Idea – don’t mention the name is !“$%, but this may be the Volksmoog™ for everybody. MIDI and USB – and standard analog synth CV’s – this looks a lot like a stage synth. 700€. app. Update: Moog put up a site now, so it’s official. $850 – to me it looks like a very nice moog product that looks like it could be a very interesting addition to todays musicians world.

Yamaha Motif XF – with 2GB Flash RAMs for big Sets

Little Demo Video. Nothing really „new“ in it, but 2 letters. Not much news in here. More Sounds and ROM Space but not more knobs / ctrls. – HD Recording etc as you know is in 2GB Flash Board Installable, so this isn’t bad for instant loading your personal sounds. some updates in OS, UI, good libraries – that’s true. so this may be nice for computer replacement on stage, I am sure the idea of having GB Pianos and things like that is hard on hardware today, so this…

Mopho Keyboard: It’s true, it is there. Dave talks..

via Sonic State – News (Video Item) WNAMM10: Mopho Keyboard Video Demo, Dave Smith’s Mother Of A Keyboard. 2.5 Octave Keys. Nice little Synth for stages.. I still ask: Why not this form factor for polyphonic synths with „some“ voices (2-4)? Tetra KB?

Noticed the little side info about the boomchick /…
