I never knew Paul other than having heard the name, and it was
obviously my loss. I did see him at the 2018 meetup of the Atlanta
Synthesizer Club (mostly online a Facebook group and Discord group) as
the guy who did Synthesis Technology, but I had no idea of what else
he did. There were many members showing off synths and a few
manufacturers reps showing off new products - back then ASC only had a
meetup every year or two - this was a very busy and crowded meetup.

I just looked on the Atlanta Historical Computing Society discord
(another group I've been a 'part time' member of, haven't attended in
a couple years), and Paul was a speaker last year at Vintage Computer
Festival Southeast 10 (yet another event I haven't gotten to in
years). The URL of the video was just posted with the notice of his
passing - watching it now:

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.

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.

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.
