If you don’t know Marcus Ryle, then you’ve almost certainly heard his work. Beginning his illustrious career as a design engineer with Tom Oberheim, Marcus would prove instrumental in the development of some of the music world’s most lauded synthesizers. He would go on to found Line 6 before becoming president of Yamaha Guitar Group, serving as board member of the Bob Moog Foundation, and establishing the WRiiG consulting firm. But for Sweetwater’s synth scholar, Daniel Fisher, it’s Marcus’s time with Oberheim that plays such an integral role in the evolution of Western musical landscape and beyond. From Oberheim’s origins and working alongside Tom Oberheim and Dave Smith to the company’s legacy and Sweetwater’s unexpected significance in the development and release of the OB-6, Daniel and Marcus go deep.
