One of the most influential folks in modern music. Instrumental in creating MIDI and polyphonic synths. The prophet line of synthesizers is still going strong today.

I briefly had use of a Sequential Circuits "Max", not only polyphonic but polytimbral (it could kinda be 4 monosynths). Really ahead of its time. RIP Dave, a great pioneer.
