This would probably fit better in the Trading Post section if you're looking to buy.

Although, this is a chipmusic oriented site, you might have better luck on sites whose users are more focused on analogue synths.

good luck

My friend had one, and it was a pain to maintain. The aftertouch keybed causes lots of problems, any reason you want it specifically?

herr_prof is right. If you want that specific sound you might be better off with a multi-sample pack, some of which are free, namely Vox Humana and strings.

Just want to chime in with a 2nd agreement with herr_prof.  Vintage Moogs can be finicky at best and cost some $$ to maintain, and polymoogs are notorious.  I understand the appeal, but maybe a modern DSI Prophet 08 or something would be a happy medium?

Ok thanks everyone but i might not be willing to pay that much for a synth just yet roboctopus. Is there maybe a synth i could get that is generally on the cheaper side but still decently fuctionable? Cheaper being less than 500. If this isnt a possiblity ill just have to start saving then haha. Also Grymmtymm i was wondering how much you would be willing to sell yours for? If its more than 500 i understand and im sorry i cant afford it yet.

EDIT:
would this synth be recommended?:

Sorry!  I just suggested the DSI because I thought you were looking for an analog poly...

I've actually heard pretty good things about the Minibrute.  I'm interested in it myself (even though I have a Moog Little Phatty).

Honestly, If you want an analog synth, I would recommend starting out with a modern one like the Minibrute.  My first analog synth was a Moog Prodigy.  It sounded *amazing*.  It also broke down every year or so and I eventually sold it.  If you want analog, get something newer.  You'll probably save yourself some repair headache.

Can you solder? build a shurthi-1. You will never ever get any moog for under $500, and polys are way north of $1k.

yes, that looks awesome.

the minimoog V is really good.  http://www.arturia.com/evolution/en/pro … intro.html

i also had the modular and it sounded awesome but my cpu couldn't handle it. http://www.arturia.com/evolution/en/pro … intro.html

i don't think you should get an old analog synth unless you enjoy working on electronics.  the new ones sound awesome.  only get one of the old ones if you'd really have fun fixing and maintaining it.
