bit of a monster the system 100m isnt it?
there was a moog modular system too which was equally huge
and an arp i think but i never saw one.
talking of large ols synths the fairlight ,one of the first samplers,
was about the size of a wardrobe.
lawrie only has the one rack of the system 100m
but its got all the best bits in there
honestly it just does make great noises.
you can just plug it in and it'll wibble away to itself all day
another synth worth a mention is the ems vcs3
with a " battleships " style plug board patchbay
totally bizarre!

It was originally made by ETI systems, but was later released as a kit in the early 80`s by Maplin electronics.
and one of these

great synths, utilised patchboards too.
Only runs on CV though, and we never did get them retro fitted, but they make lovely noises.
