Commentaires sur le test : Le Saint-Clavier

Because drummer Stewart Copeland had broken his collarbone and was unable to drum, he opted to use his Fairlight CMI to program the drum track for the single. While singer/bassist Sting pushed to use the drums on his Synclavier instead, the group's engineer found the Synclavier's programming interface difficult—and it ended up taking him two days to complete the task. Copeland ultimately finished the drum programming and claimed that the Fairlight's then-legendary "Page R" (the device's sequencing page) saved his life and put him on the map as a composer. In a Qantas inflight radio program named "Reeling in the Years", Copeland was quoted as saying that the argument over Synclavier versus Fairlight drums was "the straw that broke the camel's back," and that this led to the group's unravelling.

Je ne suis pas certain que le Synclavier soit le 1er synthé numérique de l'histoire, mais merci pour le test !

EDIT :je pensais au https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_Labs_Digital_SynthesizerGDS, puis au Synergy qui l'a suivi. Mais le Synergy a l'air d'être de la même période, suivant les sources.
