Pondering a large-knobs desktop monosynth (which will actually almost entirely be a bunch of my #eurorack designs with larger I/O boards, a ton of sane normalling, and a single common panel).
In my defense, I actually have a specific use-case in mind. I spent some time last weekend at BOOM Club in #DurhamNC (https://www.boom-club.org/) and ppl definitely seemed hesitant to touch the synths on display, despite it intentionally being set up as a synth petting zoo.
So what I *want* to do is similar to what the #Erica #Bullfrog does -- a friendly monosynth that demonstrates typical synth signal flow in a hands-on fashion.
Why not just use the Bullfrog? Well, mostly because I don't necessarily agree w/some of their choices :)
Like, I agree with "no built in keyboard" because Too Much Trouble. But I think "make weird squelchy noises" gets old quickly for most people, so I want to include a simple playable 8-step sequencer.
And I want the thing fully normalled so that there's a default working flow with zero patches -- but still make it patchable.
Now all I need is for freaking Trump to back down from his China tariffs . . .
