  1. Damn, that thing looks good. What happened to the pure aesthetic side of synth design? The P5, the MemoryMoog, the JP8, the Chroma, the Trident, the CS80, the Quadra -- they just looked so cool, even despite how they may have sounded (*cough* Trident). And that's just the polys! (Don't get me started on the monos! Axxe, OB1, Source, Spirit, Pro-One, MiniKorg, SH-101...) Anyway, I'm glad the 'slab' seems to be somewhat on it's way out, and I like what Moog, DSI, Vermona, genoQs, Metasonix and many others have been doing in making good-looking gear, but I hope to see still more creatively-designed music gear. Sound quality is generally paramount when considering new gear acquisitions, but I'd be lying if I said that I've never been swayed by looks. Hell, I just searched on Ebay tonite for "Elevata!"
