Page "Digital synthesizer" Paragraph 14

The New Wave era of the 1980s first brought the digital synthesizer to the public ear.

Bands like Talking Heads and Duran Duran used the digitally made sounds on some of their most popular albums.

Other more pop inspired bands like Hall & Oates began incorporating the digital synthesizer into their sound in the 1980s.

Through breakthroughs in technology in the 1990s almost every synthesizer now created has DSP.
