I'm just about the opposite, building my first CGS supplied Serge modules last December. I'm now moving towards having mostly Serge modules in my modular having preferences to individual modules being used together to create the greater overall function, rather than all other manufacturer's modules having specific purposes.
This Group initially (last December) I had HOPED would be a great collective of Serge users. Barely a message is posted here nowadays though. Same thing at the Buchla, Serge, EMS section at muffwiggler (though a little heavier for Serge) and quadslope.com's Forum. Through this past year, it's been hard to find any populated posting area for Serge. That, is quite the drag. :(
Perhaps other Serge owners (purchased and DIY) see lesser of a need to post and share info? Dunno. Stumped.

This list IS a great collective of Serge users, hopefuls and interested parties. Those who have the most to contribute, however, don't say much -- for a variety of good reasons I'm sure. For my part, I haven't had time to mess with the serge in years. I did just give a talk at the university I work at, which was lots of fun but which is prob'ly my last hurrah in the field. Can't say it hasn't been fun tho.
