Have you ever regretted taking the step from classical rock instruments to the "musical switchboard?"

Answered by Edgar Froese

In 1971, when we gave our first concert performed with synthesizers only, no one had ever before seen this kind of a stage setup. It revolutionized the entire music business and what happened is that a huge industry was created and would continue to develop over the next 30 years. Of course, not everything was positive, but using complex synthesizers was one of the few, if not the only way, to pursue new directions of musical composition and performance.
