Sad news.  I was into electronic music in a small way with no budget in the late 1960s/early 1970s. Then my interests shifted over to computers and graphics. In the early 1990s I wanted to get back into electronic music and discovered MOTM. I really appreciated it because of it's easy DIY nature and documentation. I even bought some of his MOTM-000 breadboards for some of my projects and still have a couple of bare boards. He was an inspiration and will greatly be missed.

Hey SDIY -



I just got off a call with Paul Schreiber's wife Tammy who let me know

that he passed away in the hospital this morning while waiting for heart

surgery. I've been chatting with him almost daily over the last few

weeks and he was in good spirits, hopeful for his upcoming procedure and

a quick recovery. We'd been working on some new ideas that he was

planning to release for production later this year.



Paul was a consummate engineer with deep roots in music and technology

and had worked on portions of the TRS-80 ecosystem, the Realistic

Concert-Mate MG-1 synth, the MOTM modular system and many Eurorack

modules. He had been an active participant in the early days of this

mailing list and was well known for strong opinions although in recent

years he spent more of his online time on other forums.



Paul and I began working together in 2007 after I'd posted a little

digital oscillator project to this list. Our collaboration resulted in

many of the Synthesis Technology Eurorack modules from the first E350

Morphing Terrarium oscillator to the final E520 Hyperion processor. He

was fun to work with and a great friend. I will miss him.



Eric
