[sdiy] Desert island synth

[Tim Parkhurst]

Nord Modular, eh?

HE'S ONE OF THEM! GET HIM!!! (as I point and screech like one of the pod
people in "Invasion of the Body Snatchers")

Okay, you can have a computer. Why not, this is a pretty well equipped
desert island. 

Along those lines, I'd be fairly tempted by a powerful PC and one of the
Aruturia soft synths. I only get ONE plug in though, so I'd have to go with
the ARP 2600. Not as much 'stuff', but more fun to tweak than the modular
Moog program IMHO. Still, I think I'd stick with the M12. At least I don't
have to worry about that crashing on me every few days.

By the way, you CAN make an OTA out of coconuts and palm fronds. The trick
is finding perfectly matched coconut pairs...and getting them to fit in the
test sockets. ;)
