[sdiy] Scott Lee of Paia has died

[Oren Leavitt]

RIP Scott Lee. Rest in peace both you and John.
Started getting into PAiA gear some 40+ years ago. Still have my Vocoder 
and Hot Springs reverb kits I built back then.
Still wished I had the 2720 synth that I bought at a Goodwill thrift 
store in 1985 for $10.
