how was it working there and how did they get funded?
- capableweb 5y ago> how did they get funded? Correct me if I'm wrong (also hard to know since it's a private company), they are self-funded. Started out with a school project and building the SidStation (with a Commodore 64 SID chip), and went from that. Bit of links that go through the history - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elektron_(company) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elektron_(company) - https://sonicstate.com/news/2014/06/04/elektron-from-sid-to-rytm-a-brief-history/ https://sonicstate.com/news/2014/06/04/elektron-from-sid-to-...
- b20000 5y agoi doubt you could have hired all the staff on the sale of some obscure c64 nostalgia in the beginning.
- bobowzki 5y agoI worked with them almost 20 years ago. Back then they had two products, SIDstation and Machinedrum. Pretty much all of they guys came from the local technical University and we were sitting in an office right next to the campus entrance. I'm not sure where the funding came from, probably some seed funding from the school.
