That was exactly what caught my attention as well.

Bingo! We're already on the same wavelength!

Over time, I hope to build other systems. But for the same reasons
you mentioned, I chose Doepfer to start just to get my hands dirty.
I'll certainly look into the other manufactureres later on. Maybe
even one day I'll find a Serge or Buchla on eBay for a semi-
affordable price.
