So, uhm, that keyboard is actually just a controller, with all the logic being in those modules?

I don't know, I've never seen the entire system like that. You always only see pics of the keyboard.

Re: What is the sexiest looking synth of all time?
nothing gets the drool flowing quite like an original buchla 200 system, imo
no 'e' necessary...

or the Fist of God,
"for when you wish to ruin yer drawls for no good reason..."

and the most beautiful(sexy? hmm) single modules goes to Wiard 300series
engraved, not just screenprint

not going to include Ciat-Lonbarde (but DO look 'em up if new to you...purrrty WOOD mmmhmmmhmmm) or other custom/special run instruments

I'm well acquainted with someone who is about to feel like a GOD in that case! (and he'll have a loyal disciple in meBitexion wrote:I bet you felt like a GOD if you owned that full system.

The keyboard is not a controller - programming can be done from the front panel without the outboard gear. Once you get into the sampling side of it is when the outboard modules are needed. As the Sync II system developed, it was for editing of samples, their "Additive Resynthesis" program, a 32 track sequencer, SMPTE, etc, etc, etc.
Oh and yeah - it is a damn sexy looking beast.

The sexiest looking 'synth' has to be the one from the UK TV series 'Humans' (adapted from a Swedish series, I believe). Anyone seen it?
