RIP Dave Smith

It is with great sadness to announce that my colleague and friend Dave Smith passed away in June 2022. I introduced myself to Dave in 1976, when I was doing presentations for Moog Music, and asked him if we could make an arrangement where I would promote his Model 800 sequencer. Little did I know what that meant for how my future in synthesis would be forever changed.
