hi,
I was planning some future additions to my Doepfer rig. A friend was
over at my place so I was discussing it with him. He said I was
crazy. He mentioned something like "You know you're obsessed when
you have to build a wall of modular synthesizers" (referring to A-
100). But I told him this is not true. I told him that you're truely
obsessed when you have to tear down a wall for your synthesizer!
Then Gordon Reid's GX-1 story popped into my head.
So perhaps some interesting proverbs could be made for Doepfer gear
and modular synths in general.
I have this quote on my site, which I thought was kind of funny:
"I brought out a small Doepfer system and added it to my band's set
today. Everybody was asking "what's that " (modified Basic System
2). I have been thinking about my Doepfer system and the future. At
first I just wanted to have at least one of everything. Now I'm
thinking of maybe doubling my system size within a year so I'm in
some serious thought of what all to add and how to go about this, if
I had an entire wall of Doepfer...well I might not be any
happier...but screw it, I would have an entire wall of Doepfer"

Anyway, some random thoughts for the list...
Thanks,
