That pic could be from just about any keys player I know.

really . . . it depends on how you synthesize.
If you were to go EuroRack this could be every bit the bottomless pit pedals are at 10x the price point.

this might be a great side-step once we get moved. Leaving our home of 32 years for a new surrounding, and I am hoping to find one with just the right room(s) for a modest recording studio. Just a dream but you gotta keep some magic in you.

Getting into EuroRack would be a gamble- basically a race to figure out what I'm doing before my hearing fades from old age.
HA- I have an equally difficult time imagining myself a husband and father.. from where I stand we've got about equal stacks of pros and cons.

I used to think I spent too much money on making pedals until I saw a BOM for a eurorack that also had the prices

Yeah if anything, she (and your wallet) should be thankful that you ARENT into synths, its a dark road!
That being said, anyone else eyeing the Behringer 2600 Blue/Gray faces?? Seems like a cool breach into some semi modular stuff. Say what you want about Behringer but they re release synths that I'd never afford or see otherwise!

Behringer went about buying the the manufacturing facility along w the schematics of the modules that are being reviewed EXCEEDINGLY well. These are not budget synths - they're affordable, well built ones. My former business partner is a synthesist - he deep-dives this stuff and I trust his word.

Can't you just do all that with a Mac? 
Yup, all those keys and none of 'em for someone's heart.
Years ago a friend of mine found a Jupiter 8 for $500. So he bought it, then sold it for $1000. Then that guy sold it and my friend ended up buying it again for $500. So he sold it again for $1000... A Jupiter 8 is a big bit of kit to lug around but it's difficult for digital gear to sound quite as lush and fat.
Still, I'd rather have a Les Paul.

Looks like they are going for a helluva lot more these days.

Wow. That's crazy! Well this was about 20 years ago I guess... The Jupiter 8 was frighteningly expensive when it first came out - a lot of synths were. I don't know how players could afford all this stuff. His main keyboard in his band was a Korg Poly 800 - just a little more affordable than a Jupiter 8! Even I had had a Juno 106.

I can't talk about playing the synth without thinking of this song:

I took piano lessons when I was much younger, he was a younger guy that graduated from Berklee. I remember he had a Jupiter 8. I thought it was amazing.
