I think that you should be proud to be an inspiration to a newbee. It is just a shame that your dealer is not more informed.Well because of you now that dealer will be a little bit more helpful to others.

So I think most of you know how daunting and confusing it is to educate yourself about the modular world, where to start, what to buy and hoping that the money you just spent is all going to be worth it.

At least I know in my case, it was probably the most brain-racking 2 months of my life!..but phew was it worth it!!



My importer/local dealer, who knows nothing about modular stuff (this was a 1st time order for him) decides that this might be a cool thing for him too, fair enough..But he orders the EXACT same setup I ordered from him(I ordered seperate units, not the "basic system" etc) just because he's too lazy t do his own research on what he needs or even just wondering what a modular is at all..Im into a completely different genre than he is and my setup was very specific to my music genre..



I guess im just a little frustrated that the guy who I buy it from is the 1st guy to carbon-copy the device I went through all the trouble to sound more "unique", its kind of ironic...Obviously we arent exclusive to anything here, but I believe the modular world allows someones mind to build and be creative with a system that can allow to sound a little different..Wouldnt you say that is bad business ethics from the dealer



He will probably realise its not for him and pun the carbon copy system to the next guy..



What do you guys think I respect anyone doing whatever they wish and I always share knowledge with people, (in fact I even helped try to educate/enlighten this guy into types of models/what they do/other brands etc)..But I just think theres a way of doing things no



Theres lazy..then theres just plain rude IMO..
