Resynator

The resynator is a rack-mounted analog synthesizer that takes the input of any instrument you plug in (so not just keyboard, but guitar, microphone, etc). It never went into full production because its inventor died.
He had a daughter who was 10 weeks old when he died. The doc is about her finding the prototype in the attic, getting it working, and connecting to her bio dad through investigating the machine.
I wanted a music doc about the synth, she had a personal story that was more suited to her rudimentary film skills. Glad I saw it but kind of felt it was her therapy. Good for her I guess. I was also pretty squicked that the credit song used AI-generated voice to have her dad do a duet with her. (admittedly he was very into technology and probably would approve, but I think it's a terrible idea. We already have a problem with old music outcompeting new music, we don't need zombie vocals. blech)
