All three are extremely powerful sounding synths.
Well, the Minitaur adds a massive fat bull. I used to think of an analogy where the Model D sounds like it has a Tasmanian Devil inside it, while the Voyager has Darth Vader. It's kind of like the original Minimoog has a wild beast inside it while the Voyager and Minitaur have managed to keep that beast under control. The Model D, whether due to age or physical design, has a brighter, fizzier, more unstable characteristic to it compared to both. Actually it was capable of sounding identical to the Voyager with roughly equivalent settings. So how does the Minitaur sound compared to its siblings? Pretty darn incredible.įor this review I had access to both a Minimoog Voyager and a vintage Minimoog Model D for comparison, and the Minitaur more than held its own. A brand new Moog Minitaur will set you back $599, a Slim Phatty, $795, an RME Voyager, $2695.
