Tangentially related: You can play around with analog programming of a sort with modular synthesizers. It's a pretty neat way to dip your toe into analog signa

  That's been my pastime away from the digital screens of my day job. But I didn't go full modular, instead getting 3 analog monosynths. I need some structure while learning music at the same time and can't venture into the wild world of modular. My gear has lots of CV/Gate ins/outs for that later step though.

  This is a great suggestion! Another couple of ways to get started with analog signal processing: - Build an AM radio from transistors. There are lots of tutorials out there. - Simulate circuits with Falstad's circuit.js. There are some interesting analog circuits already in the set of examples, like https://tinyurl.com/24gccg7p https://tinyurl.com/24gccg7p. - Build an Atari Punk. You can get very, very good op-amps very cheaply these days. Some of them even still come in through-hole packages. This makes it possible to build interesting audio synthesizer circuits for pennies that would have required significant money outlay in the 70s.
