Just a touch of analog.

With the death of Robert Moog (obit), it seems apropos to play some Wendy (née Walter) Carlos when I get home today. I’m sure I have some. A friend of mine lived in Asheville, N.C. and always talked about Moog’s presence there.
I’ve barely laid eyes on a Moog, but I am lucky enough to have a Yamaha DX7s (big ups to Johnny B. on that one, he knows.). It’s a fine fm synth and a nice midi controller. I hardly ever get to use it as such, though. There always seem to be interesting and new sound apps for Linux, though.
