| I had the prototype filter bank in my Serge system! The guy who builds the Filterbank (Herman) is an old friend and when he set out to build the Sherman, it was for himself. He didn't aim it at a market or anything, he just built it how he wanted it for his studio and decided others might like the same thing.
In any case, I think all the above is true. It is a synth minus oscillators. It's a HEAVY machine and you can do a multitude of things with it, but it is always a fat bastard and not for clean stuff...
I don't recall him having anyone want to return the filterbank and he has sold a LOT. You don't see that many on ebay either, which considering how many he has built, is a sign that people keep them.
I just wish he would bring out a new product. I must call him and pester him! |
