Fixed the broken link. I'm not sure how this video relates to the link I posted, but whatever.

Thanks. That video was headlined by one of my latest Youtube subscribers.
Nice and synthy too, don't you think?

Yes it is a nice synthy, however on forums when replying to a topic, it is common practice to keep on topic. Otherwise the purpose of the thread or forums is lost.
For example, if I start a topic on Sports Cars and you reply with a post about Fishing those are two different topics, so it would be more appropriate to start a separate thread about fishing.
In this case it would have been better if you had started a separate thread and said "Hey everyone check out this video that one of my youtube subscribers shared with me, it sounds very synthy"
My topic was about a small analouge modular synth, more of a hardware topic and not specific to it having a synthy sound.

I very much think it was on-topic, though with no pre-amble you left a very wide scope.
So I thought 'Ah, that's nice'. And just at that time I had my own random synth find. Which was also nice.
OK, p'raps we can meet halfway here. What's the pivot of discussion?

I think the topic was not so much "random finds" as "let's talk about this cool equipment in this 'ere video".

Possibly the smallest Modular Analog synth
If you look at photos of this thing, you will see that you can patch sounds together using tiny wires, but the device wasn't build in the 70s, its a new device.
So for anyone who loves the tactile feel of making sounds turning knobs and patching things together this will be a perfect tool, and you limit yourself. When you make a sound with this device, Unless you take a picture of all the settings or write them down in a book, once you tear it down and move the knobs, that sound is lost, to make way for new sounds.

Interesting philosophy, I've never looked at it that way. Although I'd hate losing a sound.

That is the dilemma I came across when I was using my Roland SH-101 I made a sound that I liked, either I recorded it via sampling or wrote down the configuration on paper, but it was such a hassle to write things down it was easier to just sample it.
