Frankensynth born!

It's alive! http://home.comcast.net/~sduck409/mc.jpg I just finished the cabinet, so I finally have a place to put the modules I've completed so far. Many more to come. At my current pace, it'll take 5 years to finish, not bad. I hope this makes Paul happy - he had conniptions when I told him I was just putting my finished modules in the closet for the time being. This synth started out as a dream project back in college, back when I was in the fledgling TIMARA program at Oberlin Conservatory. Then life intervened. 24 years later, I fessed up to my alcoholic nature, entered rehab, started going to AA meetings, and have begun living and enjoying my life again. That was a year and a half ago. I soon realized I had some extra time and money that wasn't being spent drinking, and I happened upon a web page called synthesizers.com, and decided to see if I could build the delayed synth. Please don't quiz me about my module choices - it's been pretty random so far. I've got a lifetime to refine this thing, after all! It makes some pretty gnarly sounds already! Steve Drake
