Just found this on Facebook. It's a contest to win a Slim Phatty!! Astralwerks, the premiere dance/electronic label in the land, teamed up with Moog Music in this sweepstakes.
All you have to do is 'like' the page from the link below, and then enter. I just did it - it's really easy and I promise it's for real.
Completely different animal to a juno. For its’ form factor it has a lot going on, and the deeper editing functions are surprisingly not that hard to get to with the master controls and LCD, although I spent last night mapping all its functions to a page on my BCR2000 which makes things nice and easy. The pots are crazy responsive, I’ll never want to tweak a filter with a dicky little plastic 0-127 knob again. If your bro tends to use presets it might not be the best synth. Half of them a shit, the rest are really generic 70s stuff – great if you’re in a Hawkwind tribute band or something haha. But if you willing to put in some time on your sound design chops with it it’s a fucking animal. I NEVER get excited by the sound of a raw synth that hasn’t been drenched in verb or processed out the wazoo in some way, but this thing sounds fucking killer straight out of the pipe. If you kill the oscilators and ramp up the resonance the filter will start screaming off its tits on its own, and if you tune the cut-off down it’s a massive sine-like sub (Or tune it up for ghostly theramin Halloween vibes! Haha wooo000(()))000))000).
