Is this the same thing you were banging on about soemthing like two years ago?

Modular synths are a bit of a waste of time, and particularly unsuitable for polyphonic stuff.

If you really want to make a patchable polyphonic synth, I suggest - as I did about this time two years ago - that you entirely forget about analogue and implement the whole lot in a DSP, or fast microcontroller.

At least prototype it digitally, so you can see how well the idea of a patchable polysynth works.

You'll very quickly find that there's a good reason why the Minimoog kill off modulars for good.
