A few years ago I was able to spend an afternoon with a VCS3 and was
amazed at the huge variety of sounds I could coax from it. Since then
I've heard them used in various places and the fascination remains.
Then, I heard that EMS is still active and manufacturing both the VCS3
and Synthi A. Hmmmm, now that I'm no longer a starving student these
are now within reach... but then my MOTM addiction took hold and I
realized that I could probably get pretty close with some more modules.
So I'd like to ask the other list members that may have had exposure to
the VCS3 about the "special" characteristics of this beast. I don't
think it will be as easier as putting a spring reverb beside a few
oscillators and filters.
How close do you think an MOTM system can get? Paul will be glad to
hear that I'd rather send the $2500-$3000 to him to expand my MOTM than
wait a year for a VCS3 :^)
