Designer

It was designed and built by Michel Geiss for Jean-Michel Jarre for the album Équinoxe.[2]. The device has also been used on the album Rendez-Vous[3] and also Revolutions.

He designed the device with the musician in mind for ease of use as opposed to other sequencers that were around at the time.[4]
