I met you in NYC, in the factory, second floor in the mid sixties, I think that’s wrong because I have no sense of time, forgive me. I bought most all of your pedals, I used the flanger the most to emulate guitar. After watching the vid twice, even with today’s tech, it’s impossible. You now own the world. I’m happy. A lot of bad attitude B-3 players will be fired. I can’t imagine, Steve Walsh’s solo on Point of No Return being played by a guitarist, ouch.

The Electro-Harmonix flanger got me an, “out of factory equipment tester position,” although no official title was given. Tony Marchese, however, did once called me a human interfacer. I got to see everything and floated through the big factory anywhere, I was present so much.

I met Dr. Moog early on, although I don’t think he would have remembered the original shop around Ithaca, NY, I should say his bum, in Williamsville, after the huge company from Chicago started to take the company apart, because he was inside a speaker at the intro time, although inside the enclosure he managed to get his head turned around to see me and say hi.

The secret flanger I usually had hidden, so impressed the designer of the Micro Moog, when hearing a band I was in, live, in Buffalo, used his factory discounts to allow me to buy one of the first off the line. As well as a PolyMoog and then gave me a backup for the tour. I think what impressed him most at the end of the evening I had a long solo and I could make the Micro squeak at will, at the end of a line which even impressed me.

I met Larry Fast for the first time at the factory.

In a three keyboard player band emulating guitar sounds, we tortured the guitar player all the time. I sent him an apology note a few minutes ago with the URL to the demo, telling him if this was real back then we (keyboard players) would have cried like little girls.

If you could now make a box for my strap on Rol with synth guts to sound exactly like a guitar without as much work, although not as great an accomplishment as the B9, or even close, it would be loved by keyboard benders.

Thanks Mike.
