I am in touch with a company that hopes to replicate my voice. However, they are not replicating my original voice - if they did that, I would sound like a man in his 20s, which would be very strange! They are actually trying to replicate the synthesizer that sits on my wheelchair.

English Physicist

E. O. Wilson

We are drowning in information, while starving for wisdom. The world henceforth will be run by synthesizers, people able to put together the right information at the right time, think critically about it, and make important choices wisely.

American Scientist

Andy Summers

If the guitar synthesizer is really going to stand as a synthesizer on its own, it needs to develop a more characteristic sound; I don' think it's gotten there yet.

English Musician

Samuel Beckett

James Joyce was a synthesizer, trying to bring in as much as he could. I am an analyzer, trying to leave out as much as I can.

Irish Playwright

Dusty Hill

People shouldn't knock the synthesizer. It's an aid, and it depends on how you use it, just like any other instrument.

American Musician

Ariel Rechtshaid

I have the utmost respect for synthesizers - Soft Cell, early Depeche Mode. But that's become a cliche for the '80s.

American Producer

Charlie Haden

Some tracks are with quartet and some tracks are with synthesizer.

Alexandre Desplat

When synthesizers appeared everyone was a composer suddenly.

French Composer

Jean-Michel Jarre

To me, the original VCS3 synthesizer is like a Stradivarius.

French Musician

Jean-Michel Basquiat

I played a guitar with a file, and a synthesizer.

American Artist

Synthesizers are versatile and used in many music genres, from pop to techno.

Genre Flexibility

While many synthesizers have keyboards, some are module-based, without keys.

Not Always Keyboards

Synthesizers can mimic other instruments or create entirely new sounds.

Sound Creation

In computing, 'synthesizer' isn't limited to sound—it can blend various data types.

Beyond Audio

Frequency synthesizers are used in communication devices like radios.

Signal Processing

Computer synthesizers create virtual simulations of traditional instruments.

Digital Role

Speech synthesizers aid those who can't speak, transforming text to voice.

Assistive Technology

Modern speech synthesizers aim for human-like voice quality.

Natural Voices

Navigation synthesizers are valuable for pilots during flights for course plotting.

Navigation Aid

Aviation synthesizers help estimate flight durations and arrival times.

Time Calculation

 and that synthesizer will pack those molecules into a seed. And what happens if you water and feed that seed appropriately, is it will do a developmental computation, a molecular computation, and it'll build an electronic computer. And if I haven't revealed my prejudices already, I think that life has been about molecular computers

It's time to question...

 So you may have thought that the creation of life was going to happen in something that looked like that. But in fact, that's not what Frankenstein's lab looks like. This is what Frankenstein's lab looks like. This is a DNA synthesizer, and here at the bottom

Paul Root Wolpe: It's...

 worked on building a machine that would scan books and read them out in synthetic speech. Optical character recognition units then only operated usually on one font, but by using charge-coupled device flatbed scanners and speech synthesizers,

Ron McCallum: How...

 She was fantastic. So I found myself getting this stuff, thanks to her assist, and suddenly, you know, I had a synthesizer when I was 14 years old -- this kind of stuff. And it let me make things, which, to me, was sort of the dream.

The mystery box PIPE JJ...

 And this lets me introduce a very important idea about designers are the biggest synthesizers in the world. What they do best is make a synthesis of human needs, current conditions in economy, in materials, in sustainability issues,

Paola Antonelli:...

 Daniel Feeling everything that's going on inside my body. Adam In your brain is this amazing musical computer. Using computers and synthesizers to create works. It's a language that's still evolving. And the 21st century.

How sampling transformed...

 This guy over here of course is me. This man is Robert Moog, the inventor of the Moog synthesizer, who passed away this past August. Robert Moog was a generous, kind person, extraordinarily competent engineer.

Stephen Hawking on Space...

 So every noise you can hear there is my voice. I didn't just trigger something which sounds like that. There's no samples. There's no synthesizers.
