Electronic Music Laboratories

Electronic Music Laboratories (EML) was an American synthesizer company founded in 1968 in Vernon, Connecticut by Dale Blake, Norman Millard, Dennis Daugherty, and Jeff Murray. The company produced a range of synthesizers under the ElectroComp brand name that directly competed with Moog and ARP, marketed as being more reliable due to their use of op-amps instead of discrete transistors. EML's products were designed partly as educational tools for music programs. The company stopped manufacturing synthesizers in 1976 and continued operating until 1984.
