Moog Minimoog, brand new in '79, I kick myself daily for selling it in a weak moment.

That is a nice piece of kit! A very diverse synth. I believe a company makes a remake... Helenssen?

Almost the same. But first lessons on a custom made modular and a Synclvier at TU Berlin, first own Poly-800, followed by a DX7…
My first soft synth I probably made myself in Max/MSP. I don’t count Digidesigns softsynth as it was non-realtime. The first commercial soft synth most likely came with an Arturia keyboard that had also Bitwig in the box. But after I got my LinnStrument, my arsenal exploded…
