Good luck topping Hans Zimmer or T.O.N.T.O. w/ less than a half million greenbacks. That would be quite a feat there! |
exactly!
as i said earlier i think adding some modular synths to an already functioning music lab is a worthy thing (even some nord modulars or as said NL2X's) but "building the best biggest modular synth ever" just seems kind of arbitrary.. i don't see it gaining anything for your school but momentary prestige on matrixsynth and the envy of a handful of people who even know what a modular synth is...
also, i think "biggest" doesn't have anything to do with "best". just look at a decent buchla or well appointed euro rack system or modcan or serge...
plenty of people have a good head start on you.
