“That was the great release for me, when I saw… heard… listened to the Mini Moog. It was just this fat sound of the ring modulators, you know (imitating a moog sound). If you take a guitar, it's always the same; you just can make it more "plumm, plumm, plumm, plumm" or you can make "bwang, bwang, bwang, bwang", like Mr. Townshend does, maybe. But if you tune the volumes and the filters and the LFOs you can make millions of sounds out of it. It's incredible, you know.”
