Ken and Joe with Synthesizer I

flickr by Joe King

"Ken Robbins and Joe King
1984
Laboratory for Engineering Man-Machine Systems
Brown University

Speech recognition and signal processing lab. We built a synthesizer that did digital additive synthesis of waveforms. Ken built the 70-chip board for realtime audio. I programmed the Motorola 68000 that drove it to make music, from the keyboard.

I recall demoing with a trumpet and piano, playing Pictures at an Exhibition.
