I WAS NEVER WORRIED THAT SYNTHESIZERS WOULD REPLACE MUSICIANS. FIRST OF ALL, YOU HAVE TO BE A MUSICIAN IN ORDER TO MAKE MUSIC WITH A SYNTHESIZER. AND SECOND, I NEVER THOUGHT THAT ANALOG SYNTHESIZER SOUNDS WOULD EVER BE MISTAKEN FOR TRADITIONAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT SOUNDS. TO ME THE SYNTHESIZER WAS ALWAYS A SOURCE OF NEW SOUNDS THAT MUSICIANS COULD USE TO EXPAND THE RANGE OF POSSIBILITIES FOR MAKING MUSIC. - ROBERT MOOG
