its good to see you here--I've read your posts on other music forums. Many of us who work in tech, play in electronic music. While I know the P5 and being part of the analog renaissance are what most will remember him for, to me his most important contribution is the work he did on MIDI as the universal language of synthesizer control. I also highly appreciate that while the DSI synths never had a polyAT keyboard, most, if not all of them would still respond properly, so a Kurzweil midiboard driving a Prophet 12 module was one of the greatest performance instruments out there (not being an analog snob, the P12 was, to me, Dave's greatest instrument.)
