Synclavier
The
New England Digital Synclavier System was a powerful, integrated system for
music synthesis and
recording, first developed at
Dartmouth College. Created in the 1970s, Synclaviers were purchased by hundreds of artists and recording studios, often at prices in excess of $100,000.
The Synclavier is no longer manufactured, but some systems are still in use.
