[sdiy] Synthesizer by Committee

[Neil Johnson]

A more realistic design study in modern synthesizers would be John
Bowen's Solaris:

That currently sells for $3,999, and they build them in smallish batches.

That's not to say it is the "next great thing" (a whole separate
discussion better held in, say, analogue heaven).  Just that its a
real product that is being produced and sold, so is a more tangible
proof-point for discussion about the realities of the business of
designing, building, selling and supporting a synth than some magazine
readership's wet dream.
