Re: Starting from scratch

hello
if you are fine with components and soldering, CGS is a good place
to begin.

best to start considering a regulated +/-15V power supply and what
will you use to house your synth. cabinet, old toolbox, fracrak?
make your own panels or follow a format? schaeffer, stooge,
screenprinting?
also, how will you play the synth? keyboard, sequencer, joysticks,
midi?

these parts of the process tend to take more time and/or money than
anything else.
its probably worth looking around to see what others have done to
get an idea of your options.
