It wasn't our intention so much as something that we knew would probably happen. We've done a lot of experimental stuff that never went into production. I think my favorite was a four-oscillator synthesizer that was controlled from a pitch follower circuit, that we built for the electric sax player Eddie Harris. Eddie used it for years and made several records with it. That's a really hard question to answer.
Every creative musician brings out something different from the synthesizer.
To name a couple, I've enjoyed everything that Wendy Carlos, Jan Hammer, and Keith Emerson have done. I've also enjoyed some really interesting work that experimental composers like Jon Weiss have done. Making unique sounds' is close to our original musical intentions. I would say that we wanted to give musicians new ways of working with sounds. John Cage and David Tudor worked on some designs for syntheziers.
