Nice, nice. Where are the wooden side panels? Thought it would happen one day. The limited edition looked nice, but the plastic of the stage one looks cheap and they didn't quite improve it. :-(
ReplyDeleteI gig with my Stage edition LP pretty often... I'm glad for the grey rubbery side panels! Less to worry about.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't going to buy it until I read it had a 'full' MIDI keyboard. Too many unscrupulous manufacturers are making partial MIDI keyboards, and I didn't want to be taken.

ReplyDeleteI only need MIDI on the black keys. Those are hard.
ReplyDeletestretta, true. Wait... doesn't a full keyboard have 88 keys? :-)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the OS update for the Stage I Edition. Interesting that Moog hasn't been very forthcoming about whether or not the Tribute Editions can be updated with the new Arps and OS.
