The heart of the operation was a big Fuchi RealSense sim-synth that had been a Christmas gift from Tamara. The Fuchi simth pumped the electronic blood of his system, and Grids had been using it for all his most recent editing gigs. The Fuchi was assisted by three ingeniously programmed smartframes and a huge library of modular plugin effects, including emotive enablers, sense-patch samples, and EC/PC modulation controllers.
