Of course I did it myself. Check the modules: they aren't the ones reported on the doepfer's website template. Knobs are different. So, yes, I wasted a evening drawing the template, then wasted more time drawing funny lines.
And, I don't want to alarm you, but... "drawing the lines" is not really the issue. Calculating what will happen when you patch real cords, is more like it. Knowing in advance what a module will do (as opposed to "fiddling with knobs while a sequence runs hypnotically). Conceiving a sound, then sculpting it. then finally playing it.
That's the idea, yes.
I understand that, for someone who forked 8 grands for a 60-pound advanced arranger with plenty of ready-made rhytms and arpeggios, and 2413 different types of "falling bone"s and "amazing pad"s and "really but REALLY nasty B3"s ["but not good enough pianos, I now need a Kronos"],
"
do it yourself" sounds like something outlandish [except when you're talking of your sexual life],
but...
yes, that's the fun. Rolling your own. Creating your acoustic universe from scratch.
As far as the
date is concerned...
Well, it looks like
a date is another momentous event for you, but believe me,
once you get a grip on it [

],
getting a date is possible,
even for a desperate loser like you.
Try first taking your hamster to the movies, then advance to taking your fleas to a mcdonald,
then gradually (very gradually) you could move to human beings.
For the final stage (a date with human beings of the opposite sex), though, maybe you need a kronos.
88, I'd recommend. full chrome karma.
chicks just can't say no to that.
