Someone posted this pic over at the Ableton forums, and it hit me that it's very likely this is why you chose to name your flagship synth Zebra!
If not, crazy coincidence eh?

I think your right and the fact it is a "work horse" synthesizer too

Hah! I always wanted to do a collage like that myself.

But yes, the idea was using the Zebra pattern as a metaphor for a synth keyboard, but a bit more organic and alive than what I had known.

Maybe is because when we work with Zebra we feel... GOOD and here is the reason...

Very cool. Still my favorite product of yours! I love wavetable soft synths, and if they're semi modular even better!

Realy Fine idea Line idea. Zebra the synth is a beautiful concept too!

always thought the name "Zebra" is inspired from the Valis Trilogy written by P.K Dick....

Hey Urs is this why it's named Zebra?
