My hope is that it could be somewhat cheaper, because many components could
be shared between voices:  at least, case, controls, power supply, midi &
audio interfaces, probably the CPU that deals with midi & the UI, and perhaps
the DSP (e.g., use a faster more expensive DSP, but which would be cheaper
per-voice).

At, say, $250 per voice, it'd be quite a deal!
