Founded in 1985 by Tim Caswell and Val St. Regis, a.k.a. FLETCHER, that master of "personic reinvention" STUDIO ELECTRONICS began its venture into the world of Analog synths by rack mounting and "midifying" the Minimoog. The first units were built on Mom's (Mary Capretta St. Regis - still very much a player in the co.) kitchen table. This homespun novelty was an instant success, and within a few short years the product known as the Midimoog was making its way into serious professional's studios and touring rigs the world over - the instrument of choice for midi controlled "discrete" analog basses and leads. When the supply of Minimoogs started to become scarce, the STUDIO ELECTRONICS MIDIMINI was born. An exact clone of the original, it was hand built with all of the original components and produced the "Moog" sound identically, while incorporating some clever innovations.
