Two pics via El Estereo on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge: "Like father, like son...."
Two massive synths with similar editing displays. Both coveted and both revered as pinnacles in the synthesizer world. John Bowen started his career with synths as a Moog technician back in 1973. In 1976 he met Dave Smith of Sequential Circuits and began work with him. You can read up on some of John Bowen's history on the John Bowen Synth Design website here. See this post for video of John talking about the Solaris and his history at a PNW MMTA SynthFest in 2011, and this post for a video of John discussing his days at Sequential Circuits back in 2006.
