Gee Paul, you seem to have an alter-life here at the General Discussion, while over at the General Arranger Discussion you tell a different story. Anyway, my aadvice to you is the same (as Nigel also said) - get on with it. Stop flirting around with these forums and get a keyboard. Iv'e played a lot of keyboards and synths in my day and truly can't see the advantage of a modular synth as your only playground, but that's up to you. Buy something - speak with knowledge.

TO ALL GENERAL DISCUSSION READERS - I suggest you check out this thread on the General Arranger Forum:
