The Story of Inventing Eurorack: Dieter Doepfer by MylarMelodies

This blog would never have existed without one man: Dieter Doepfer, the mind behind the Eurorack format.

As we celebrate the 30th anniversary of Eurorack, I’m currently working on a deeper article about its fascinating history. But in the meantime, there’s already something special to share.

In 2024, Mylar Melodies sat down with Dieter Doepfer himself, alongside Holger Zapf, who is gradually taking the reins at Doepfer HQ. 
The interview dives into the origins of Doepfer, the evolution of synthesizers, and of course, the future of  Eurorack.

It’s a must-watch for anyone passionate about modular synthesis. You can find the video below— and don’t forget to follow Mylar Melodies on social media for more inspiring synth content.

" A podcast about creating Eurorack modular synths in the 90s, collaborations with Kraftwerk, the 'red stripe' controversy (if you know you know) - in this episode we hear from Dieter Doepfer, in an interview at Machina Bristronica 2024, about how his Eurorack Modular format went from "Nobody
wants that sh*t" to a blossoming and diverse industry 30 years later.
 This was filmed at the mighty https://machinabristronica.uk/ "
