THE ALTERNATIVES

Erica Synths Techno System €3,990

You need to look to full modular systems to match the patching potential of the Pulsar. Erica’s Techno system is similarly handy at interesting rhythms and sounds. ericasynths.lv

Moog Sound Studio £1,399

These new bundles from Moog contain a DFAM and either a Mother-32 or Subharmonicon. As a full package, they cover similar ground to the Pulsar, with equally experimental credentials. moogmusic.com
