Hugh is a revered figure amongst electroacoustic folks up here. Probably at least equal to 
Moog in terms of innovation. Unfortunately he wasn't so savvy in the marketing department. 
Working for a government department (the National Research Council) didn't help.

Check out the Electronic Sackbut for something that might have blown the Mini-Moog away 
had it been released commercially (as nearly happened). The original 1948 prototype is a real 
beauty.
