  1. the rest of the space is hers.. Couch and tv, etc. She's already mad about the space my gear takes.

    The entire basement was my mess before the remodel.. Now I'm confined to a couple of corners.. It's for the better, though.

  2. Nice! I built the drivers for those years ago, and put it on the back burner.. I'll have to think about finishing that.

    And speaking of customs.. I build tube amps and often get surplus from eastern europe/russia, and those packages almost always disappear for months. Customs must spend a long time gong through my tubes and capacitors before then send them on. (and there's always a broken tube or two, or entire box :( )

  3. My girlfriend is an architect, and she did most of the planning. I did the work. (she did a lot of work, too)

    And, thanks! we're proud! Took us about 6 months of weekends. (Tore down old construction, built new framing, new electric, new walls, ceiling, ceiling trim, paint, floor, floor trim, DONE!)

  4. best advice I can give to someone building one of these... Get a decent drill press :). Making panels and even drilling holes for DIY PCB's is super quick and easy. Then for the 'artwork' I think I used "lasertran" paper and then I sprayed them w/ lacquer to seal everything. Getting panels made 'professionally' for such a huge project doesn't really make sense.

  5. The black modules are an old PAIA kit, and that got me started, in the 90's. Then I started building CGS and a few MusicFromOuterspace modules. A couple of blacet (miniwave!).

    so, a quick rough list is 3 osc, 3 vca, 1 miniwave, wave multiplier, 5eg's, 6lfo's a moog filter, a synthacon filter, bi-n-tic filter, 2xpaia filters. 5 percussion modules (2 bass/kick drum, 1 cymbal, 2 chime). Neural Agonizer (spring reverb), some mixers, multi's, couple of 8 step sequencers, couple of dividers. Portamento (lag) modules, and ring-mod modules too.

    Up on my list to build next are a few Jourgen Haible modules. Living VCO's, Filter Phaser, and chorus. Oh, and I just got 3 Buchla "lopass gate" pcb's which are filter/vca's.

    I'm actually thinking about building the new stuff into a little integrated synth.. I'd have jack-ability built in, but it would also be set up as a ready to play synth.. And I'm hoping to take that idea and some midibox stuff, and maybe making an analog synth w/ patch recall.. but so far I can't quite figure that out.. (I'd need about 24 CVouts to have all their parameters stored together, for the ultimate software controlled analog synth)
