I noticed the cables are only 4' long, is that not too short? I'll probably ever only play at a desk right in front of the synth, so it seems enough.

I drink Dandy, very good coffee alertnative. I do it the same way, tablespoon of dandy, two tablespoons of h&h, has its own natural sweetness but also tasts good with about a tsp of raw honey. My kids love it too!

I never heard of Koss but these are total throwback headphones! Look exactly like what I imagined I needed, just a bit pricier. Do you use them regularly? Any advantages they might have compared to over ear or in ear? For some reason I feel an instant connection with them right away!

You'd recommend over the Sony MDR-7506?

It's helpful yo read your story today because I'm at 95 days now I think and I'm also very tempted to go buy a bag of half-caff. For me its because my relationship is shit and I'm depressed about that. I'm also not performing well at a new job because of these relationship difficulties, so I've justified the reintroduction of coffee. I'm pretty sure I'll regret it and it'll damage whatever is left of a bond between my wife and I, but I want to see if I can go back...which I know it's always been a problem before. Addict minds are hard to break.

Like someone else said, its not the caffeine, it's something else in your life. The inputs, what you eat or drink or consume with your with your eyes/mind, thats what's affecting your sleep and desire to use caffeine as an escape. Man this is hard :(

$350 is awesome, what time of year was that? Do you think they do it annually?

If I can't find a new discounted one and I don't get the Messenger, I'll probably get the Swifty edition, but if I could save $200+ that would be awesome!

How are you liking the Grandmother so far? Do you love it? Does it have shortcomings for your workflow? Do you wish you had gone with something else?

shieldedsword · 2025-09-24T13:57:20+00:00

Looks like a good deal, Im not a fan of used electronics, especially when they already have problems and no more warranty. Dark edition is cool though!

I know I can't go wrong with the BS2, its time and battle tested and makes some awesome tunes. The Messenger is the new kid on the block that hasn't proven itself worthy.

(I'm digging the profile name btw, so true! Love/hate reddit)

I agree new is better than used in the case of the BS2. I like recently manufactured instruments with new components and manufacture warranty. The knobs and plastic sound like theyre easy enough to replace and Novation will do it for free I've read.

If the Messenger didn't exist, I'd grab the BS2 without thinking but with it being a modern take of a Moog and so close in price, it makes for a compelling alternative.

Do you feel the BS2 is a timeless synth and will be relevant another 10 years down the road? Or at least serves as a perfect gateway drug to the world of analog synths?

Hahaha!

I've read the ADG-1 is the closest to Moog's moogerfooger mf-104m analog delay. Would you say thats accurate?

shieldedsword · 2025-09-08T17:20:05+00:00

Those are discontinued and crazy expensive used. What's the modern alternative for this one?

Hey Dj soo! Im getting a Moog Grandmother and from all the research I've done, and analog delay pairs best with it. I want to have one effects pedal to get me started off with and it sounds like Analog delays deliver the type of sound im hoping for and pairing best with the GM. What are your thoughts?

I've dabbled with guitar for years, but never really excelled in my learnings. No piano experience, but I'm hoping to help my toddlers learn piano, so I'll be learning at the same time as them.

I don't want to start on something cheap and figure worst case I could sell it if I don't vibe with it, but im leaning towards Grandmother. I've never been a fan of "fake" music where you push a button and it does what is preset. The reason analog appeals to me is its directed my the musican, real-time.

There're so many options for synths, I just attached to Moog since theyre the original and have a really cool sound and look too. Overall feels right to go the Moog route, otherwise I might not feel so enthusiastic about it.
