Making of the Synth

I have been fascinated by synthesizers from very early age. My best friend's dad ran a wedding-playing band and he owned Roland JX-3P (just guessing the exact model now, from my memory of silver buttons with red LEDs inside). When he allowed us to touch it after lots of nagging, and we powered it on, my ears immediately noticed it was something out of this world. I was born in Czechoslovakia, a country run by communists, where we spent our days duplicating 10th copy of illegally imported tapes through cheap "International" branded double decks.
