[sdiy] minimoog/prodigy/rogue homebuilts?

[harrybissell]

You could probably clone any of them...  I'd think the rogue and prodigy
are better
clone candidates...

otoh you will find that the cost of really doing a clone is prohibitive...
far more imho than
buying one. Unless you really enjoy building, working with hands (and
brains)... cloning
is not a good path.

And why clone... if you go that far... improve on the originals. They were
designed to meet
a certain market segment that you don't need to hit.

Good Luck Mr. Phelps... if you choose to accept this assignment - we can /
will help.
We are s-diy. All infected. We do this kind of thing for FUN :^P
