No really I want a Moog guitar. :cry:
The Moog guitar is just a really overpriced housing for the Paul Vo pickup that does all the magic. It was $6000+ for a MIK guitar. If Vo would just get to the business of making and selling the pickups you could have any guitar do what the Moog guitar does.

Huh. I had the impression that those were made for Moog by Zion. I guess not.

Zion made a few but all the E1 guitars were made in Korea. The used market doesn't seem to distinguish much when it comes to price. They're all $5000 or so.

Loopop just dropped a 23-min introduction to the Cosmos.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpUG2Op5jrQ[/youtube]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpUG2Op5jrQ

Here's some notes for people who don't have time to watch the full video:

It can [probably] do much more than most of us initially realized (but it clearly has limitations). With the dual/stereo format, you'll begin with two loops slightly out of time and the degradation begins immediately. (there's a workaround for a mono loop though) Even if you don't use the Blur function, it seems like your loops will quickly devolve into ambient soup.

Unless you pitch down, your max loop is about 23 seconds, so it's ideal for people doing micro loops that will expediently turn into a wash of textures. As with other loopers, it's going to be easier to use on a table or music stand, since some functions require pressing two stomps at once.

You're going to want to have your DAW or a digital multi-track going all the time. Considering the generative nature of the device, that'd be ideal for capturing any fleeting moments of unexpected magic. There's no undo function, so it's vital to turn off the Cosmos' record function, while you experiment with layering.

I don't love the price or the inability to store loops, but I can live with that, since the features are so unique and specialized---they're calling it an anti-looper for a reason. You can do sounds in similar territory to Hologram's Microcosm or a MOOD, but this device would complement both of those quite well, too. For people into the SOMA catalog, this fits fairly well. It's not perfect, but it's bringing something different to the table.

So Adventure Audio have created one of my dream pedals with the Mother Tongue formant filter pedal. I'd return to the world of pedals (from the world of plugins) in a flash if I had any chance of ever owning one, ha ha ha cry

the features of the Cosmos are wonderful, but its utter arbitrariness makes it useless for someone like me who loves to loop but prefers controlling the machine to being controlled by the machine. it would literally be easier to get a desired result with 1/4-inch tape on a reel-to-reel with the loop stretched out across the stage like Fripp and Eno, and probably cheaper as well now that home r2r is a relic of the past.

When this leaked last week, I really didn't believe the $1300 price. I wish you could save more sounds, but this has a lot of options compared to the $2500+ models from Dave.

Also, it seems that a lot of people are gobsmacked by the name. :idk:

I really wanted spaceman to drop a phaser. Felt like all of a sudden everyone was going to start making phasers for a second.
