Man, that's very sad. You're probably correct, but that bums me out big
time.

I already have friends who are musicians, engineers, etc., and can't
understand why in the world I would want a big analog modular synthesizer.
"Do it digitally!" they all say, some not even aware of products like the
Nord Modular. "You just...don't...GET it," reply. Soon, my 'hands on'
arguments will only apply to the front panels.

So Paul, are you saving up for that big surface-mount automatic insertion
machine and wave solderer? :-)
