You can find the full interview on electromusic.com here."electronicmusic.com: When did you decide to create The Harvestman?
Scott Jaeger : I started design work in summer 2006 and made an academic thesis out of several early designs. After getting out of there in 2007, I was building small numbers of these devices on a custom basis with no business motivation whatsoever. Some overwhelming persuasion from my US Distributor convinced me to revise the Malgorithm design for easier construction, and start supplying him with devices. Soon after that I arrived at an agreement to license the Polivoks filter design from Russia, and I found a very receptive audience. That was all the support I needed to continue development of newer devices...
My "company's" tagline is "digital audio electronics" because I have the naïve belief that "digital" will one day stop being a dirty word when it comes to music synthesizers..."
Scott Jaeger of The Harvestman will be presenting at the PNW AES synth meet this coming Wednesday. Doors are open to the public and entry is free.
