just in... the sad news of the passing of Bob Moog... as Mike Adams (president of Moog music) mentioned: "Bob shaped music in deep and meaningful ways by changing how music could be produced and ultimately, how it would sound. He contributed to a new soundscape- a legacy that we will continue in his honor. He was a musical pioneer for the love of it and musicians everywhere have had the opportunity to expand their own creative horizons with Bob's inventions"...i had the rare chance of meeting with Bob back in 2001 at NAMM in L.A, which was very intereresting to say the least... if you have not checked it out yet take a look at 'MOOG' (www.moogmovie.com) by Hans Fjellestad, a compelling documentary potrait of both man and instrument...Robert Moog (1934-2005)...XR
