"Yamaha MU10 tone Generator. I principally used it as a sound module connected to a midi controller keyboard with a midi cable. By doing this you can select 128 sounds and change cutoff, resonance and sustain etc as long as you have those pots. For example I used it with a microkorg which you then control all these things by using the appropriate knobs etc as any hardware you use with it automatically will talk to this box via midi. It mainly gave me more sounds to play with and those all important organ and piano sounds in its XG sound set which the microkorg just doesn't have. For example bank A sound 1 on the microkorg selects the first sound piano on the MU10. A2 selects the next piano sound and so on."

New Pics & Info on Roger Linn's Linnstrument

"Software synthesizers have made tremendous advances in their ability to produce the subtle, humanlike solo note expression normally associated with traditional acoustic instruments. However, when played from midi keyboards, they tend to sound somewhat stiff and unnatural. If you've ever tried to play a midi keyboard with a software synthesizer or sampler in order to simulate a convincingly human sax, clarinet, violin, cello or guitar solo, you're probably aware of this limitation. It turns out that their key pressure and bend/mod wheels aren't quite up to the note expression capabilities of acoustic solo instruments..."
