Numan's early songs.<br />

Trivia Tidbits:<br />

• The Polymoog and Polymoog keyboard are actually different models<br />

with essentially identical hardware, a slightly different set of baked-in<br />

presets, and reduced programmability (in the case of the keyboard).<br />

• These models used divide-down oscillators to achieve “100%<br />

polyphony”, so they delivered a tonality hybrid somewhere between a<br />

traditional Moog and the “string synthesizers” and combo organs that<br />

were common in the late 70’s.<br />
