If you ever listened to 1980s pop/rock, you have heard Sequential's synthesizers such as the Prophet 5. In fact you still hear them in today's music.
Dave Smith, the founder of Sequential, died last year, but his equipment and the music it helped create live on.
Dave was also co-inventor of MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface.
This is a surprisingly good article about Dave and Sequential, with some fun photos.
Recommended for anyone interested in electronic music.
(I took the liberty of editing the article's title to make it more relevant.)
