Well, perhaps I should have said 50s/60s/70s - at least the early
harmonizers were there for the last decade.


I don't remember the Eventide until the eighties, and then everybody
overused it until it became a cliche. Same with digital reverb systems.

Pilot of the Airwaves, here is my request....


My memory goes to 1979 when a friend brought one in to one of our band's
rehearsals. He owned a studio and it was a new toy. He hooked it up and
we sounded like Mickey Mouse. He couldn't get it to work right. They
were very sensitive back then...


Wait, I thought it was SUPPOSED to make you sound like Mickey Mouse?
