[sdiy] Synapse WOW!

[Peter Grenader]

This is sooo cool.  If you look on the Los Angeles Center of Electronic
Music story in Cynthia's upload, you'll notice in the main photo two first
generation Serges, one belonging to Doug Lynner and the other to Bryce
Robbly (RIP), a black faced Steiner-Parker Synthacon and on the right side,
a Synthi AKS which still belongs  to Alex Cima -and- tucked away in the
background on the right side a Steiner-Parker Synthasystem that Alex had as
a demo unit as he was rep'ping SP for a little bit here in So Cal.

OK, maybe not so cool - but...I now own this very Synthasystem.  How cool is
THAT?  Alex sold this unit to my good friend John Waddell, who was them
director of the Electronic Music department at Birmingham High and took it
with him to the LA High School of the Arts, where JW as the first music
department chair.  When  John passed away last year from cancer,  he
instructed his family that I was to have it.

WOW - that was a million years ago.

It was cleaner then.
