I recall the day that Dave showed me and a few others the Optigan that he had gotten from some sales rep. It was just a toy but we all thought that it was cool. Everyone had their eye on a mellotron of course but this held promise for something similar in a bit more portable form. Just thought and acdote from that time period might be of interest.
