Re: [The_Cyndustries_List] Newbie here with some questions....

2007-02-02 by stephen@thekitchen.org

just to offer another approach -- I started small and I've tried to keep
it that way. I bought one of the Doepfer suitcase style frames with their
basic set of modules. Slowly, I've replaced the modules that offered me
less with other Eurorack modules from other companies -- two Synthi
related ones from Analogue Systems, the Serge WVX classic wave multiplier
from Banalogue... It all stays portable for travel and fits my very small
studio space. Good luck. Stephen
