  3. It doesn't matter if it still works or not afterwards, so long as you buy Ken another Hoegarten.

  5. Well, it is as Ken says, very old school.

    I hope it has a warmer sound than the M5, which I always thought was brassy.

    It's odd how 'sparse' the circuits are on his synths (well, I don't know if he has extra boards inside -- I'm just going off of pics on his site). They seem to be 'thrifty' on parts.

    Anyone have a pic of an M5's insides? OR is it really all on the board(s) that the pots are connected to?

  6. I've already invested in my weird synth of the year (S-1000)... maybe this time next year when it's time to drop another few grand on an oddity the Matrixsynth Voyager will come out...

  7. "No aftertouch? Meh." - No? It's like a cool factor to own Macbeth's keyboard analogue synth? I duno... $3k... I can get a minimoog...

    "...when it's time to drop another few grand on an oddity the Matrixsynth Voyager will come out..."

  12. Yeah, but how does sound compared to the SMS 2000? It's a nice render, but the SMS 2000 had that too.
