Re: Modular Synth Layout Query

2003-09-13 by Mike Marsh

Nice, neat little rows for nice neat litle music.  Yummy.  Nicely 
organized, no accidents!  Neat!  Maybe we should ask the IEEE to 
adjudicate the standard?

Every guitarist can pick up the Strat copy that I built and 
play 'Stairway to Heaven' on it because it is standard.  Every 
guitarist that I know (except one) picks up the 7 string flattop 
that I had made (spruce top Brazillian sides!) and can't play it.  
It's *MY* instrument, and I like it that way!  It's my creative edge.

Knowing where your modules are: one dollar.  Knowing how to use 
them: $10.  Arranging them the way that works for you: priceless.
