Serge-O-Voxes is a series gathering compositions made using a Serge synthesizer released via our Modulisme platform and celebrating 50 years since the creation of the SERGE "the People’s Synthesizer." May the Serge be with you!

Serge-O-Voxes :: Voices For The Serge is bursting out as a companion to the second installment in our I.T.A.T.I.O.M. series dealing with Inventors Talking About Their Instruments Or Modules. Gathering Serge Users willing to celebrate Serge Modular designs this collection was curated by Doug Lynner and I, Philippe Petit, under the guidance of Serge Tcherepnin.

Adopting such a title became obvious when Serge Tcherepnin told me:
"Searching for names for my synth back in ’72, “Serge-O-Vox” and “Tcherepnin Synthesizer” came up. Then, thanks to the way I funded purchasing the parts, panels, PCBs for the first 20 synth, we came up with the name “People’s Synthesizer." The serge was the first crowd-funded DIY synth. Anyone with $600 was able to obtain a kit.
