I have had experience in the past with a very elegant and large E-MU modular system, and it has influenced me greatly in terms of my ideals for synthesizer module design. I worked in an electronic music studio for years, using this system and interfacing it to a variety of other machines to create a 16 voice polyphonic monster. This experience taught me how to create a personal and unique modular synthesizer, by customizing existing modules, and by bringing cool modules into the system from other manufacturers. The elements for building a custom synthesizer system include:Building custom modules, when you just can't buy what you need:
Modifying stock modules, for more performance or features:
Mounting modules from other manufacturers, and making it look pretty:
Putting together the system infrastructure:
