Page 4 Page 5 LP Users Manual - The Basics Congratulations on your purchase of a Moog Little Phatty. It was Bobs dream and it is our pleasure to bring this performance synth to you. We are very excited for you and expect this product will provide you with a lifetime of musical enjoyment. Bob had very high hopes for this, his last design project. His aspiration was for a less expensive Moog synth that more people could afford to own. If you are reading this manual, we accomplished his goal for at least one person! The Moog team is very proud of our effort. We feel we have created a product that not only looks great but sounds great and is intuitively easy to use. We are hoping you are reading this manual after a week or so of sleepless but blissful nights of playing the Little Phatty. The LP user interface was designed to have you up and running in a matter of minutes. The manual will aid you in the discovery of additional functionality beyond the most important aspect of any synth - simply playing. Hopefully this is the case. The Little Phatty is built with care and pride by our team in Asheville, N.C. If you have a chance to come to the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, call and come by and see us. We would be happy to take you on a tour of the factory. Most importantly, I must recognize the hard working team that created the LP. Of course, it starts with Bob and his vision for the product. The Engineering team of Cyril Lance, Steve Dunnington, and Mike Peio made it happen. Kudos go out to Axel Hartmann for his tremendous design and to mechanical engineering genius Klaus Weber. The software for the LP was developed by the team of Chuck Carlson, Cyril Lance, and Peter Ning. Thanks to Barry Darnell, one hard working dude, for our board designs. There are a number of people who provided a timely bit of information along the way: Amos Gaynes, Charles Butler, and Ray Ring. Thanks to our interns Patrick and Eric for assisting with the assembly of the very first Little Phattys. If you enjoy this manual, thank Greg Kist! And then there was a host of artists who participated in the design process: Kevin Lamb, Steve Donato, Mike Krewitsky, Brian Kehew, Roger ODonnell, Tom Brislin, Nigel Hopkins, Michael Vallarella, Keiichi Goto, Tomo Nakamura, Mineto Yamaguchi, Mark Pulver, Steve Molitz, Eric Svalgard, Jordan Rudess, and Nick Montoya. The internal Moog Marketing team: Jared White, Linda Pritchard, Siobhan Robinson all contributed their part to the success of this project. And finally, nobody takes more pride in what they do than the production folks at Moog Music led by Lee Gentry, Operations Manager. Let us hear from you, as we hope you enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed bringing it to you! Mike Adams Moog Music Forward
