Interest in modular synthesizers has come full circle from the earliest instruments available in the 1960s to obscurity as newer technologies dominated the field, and on to the current renaissance of interest with the embrace of Eurorack as a standard format. Systems run the gamut from classic recreations to bold new deigns with some of the most innovative engineering coming from small, home grown developers. This session will feature the perspectives of industry leaders discussing the roots and future development of modular synthesis.
