TONTO [The Original New Timbral Orchestra]


via Music Marketing Inc. on Facebook

"TONTO [The Original New Timbral Orchestra], the first and largest, multi-timbral polyphonic analog synthesizer in the world, was famously used by Stevie Wonder on all his early 70s albums. Essentially, it was a massive combination of modular synths from Moog, Oberhiem, ARP, EMS, Roland and others. Originally made for record producer Robert Margouleff, Tonto has changed owners several times and currently resides in a studio in upstate New York. When you are this BIG they call you TONTO!"
