Yeah that 4-way array of effects is mental.

I have seen some incredibly intricate arrays of oscillators, resonators, jump wires, knobs, mixer slides, and I just don't understand how it came to that. Like yeah I want gear, but when it becomes so esoteric and untransportable that I worry about proper configurations late into the early morning hours, I've lost the game, I think, in a way.

There's some great plug-ins, but man, I'm just not gonna simulate that array of effects and sounds without an appreciable delay unless it's a lotta analog gear. But that's ok, the lay(wo)man(s) can do other things well enough. Even iOS garageband surprised me. Not terrible for just getting like a melody or chord progression out of the brain.
