I can't remember whether that was a suggestion of mine or not (many of
my suggestions were supposed to be funny, just kicking around ideas)..
BustaSynth is kind of funky sounding. One can say lets "bust some
rhymes" and make sense in some genres of music (rap, hip hop, etc. not
really my taste in music, but I like the whole funky motif).

Lets bust out the beer. Lets bust something. BustaSynth also sounds like
your breaking a synth. To bust something up, means to hack it into
pieces.

"Busta" also sounds like a slang form of "buster" like as in "What are
you doing buster?" Which I'm really not sure the origin of, but it is
usually said out of annoyance to something somebody is doing.

Anyways.. I kind of like the sound of it too :) It does give the synth a
funky kind of image though, not sure if that is desirable or not..
Cheers.
