Muff's Modules & More

I've convinced myself to attemp to get "the SEM sounds" with a dot com "Mini-modular" rig I'm halfway done setting up. Using an Amherst cab which holds 14sp of dot com (or 17sp of other 5u). Within those 14sp I can "create" a Minimoog or an SEM:

* Slew (attached outboard to QKB keyboard so it doesn't use a "space". Gonna try to convince Dr. Etch-n-Sketch to cobble-up this little toy for me. That dude is sharp!)
* Normalizer/mults
* 3 VCOs.
* VCO mixer (4ch)
* State variable VCF with mode-mixer.
* 2 EGs.
* VCA.
(14sp total)

Just missing the noise generator. So in 14sp I can get the Mini's and the SEM stuff ... H-O-P-E-F-U-L-L-Y so. In any case those modules are all part of a plan I've had for quite a while so if it doesn't work out as my "Mini-SEM-Modular" thingy there is no money wasted .. it all ends up in the Modular at some point!

Here's to hoping for the best (and just plain old having to make do!)

Hey ... can we get some demos of that Andromeda doing your own versions of SEM?

Woa! I just checked out that link you provided. Nice ... I can barely tell the difference .. if at all.

I figure the sounds that I'm looking for are more easily obtained ... this is the sound set I'm after (more of the "Miami Vice" group of tones) ...

So I'm thinking either the Arturia SEM or just finding a Matrix 1000 to go along with the Cyclone I have.
