Electronic keyboards grammar...

Mara, to hear a Moog synthesizer listen to Switched on Bach by Walter Carlos. To hear a Hammond electric organ listen to In Memory of Elizabeth Reed by the Allman Brothers. Other than the way each sounds, I'm not sure what kind of explanation you seek.

Here is another example: to hear an Oberheim synthesizer listen to Birdland from Weather Report's Heavy Weather. If I stumble across a clear example of a Fender Rhodes electric piano I'll post it too.

Here's some general information I've gleaned from watching and listening to keyboard players "operate" their instruments: real pipe organs use stops to imitate other real instruments like oboe or french horn. Organs can play chords, multiple notes sounding simultaneously. Electric organs imitate pipe ones. The earliest synthesizers could not play chords, only individual notes. The Oberheim offered polyphony but a limited number of sounds. Today's synthesizers are mated to samplers and connected to musical instrument digital interfaces (MIDIs). For example now we can sample the sound of you snoring, the howl of Hendrix's strat or Humphrey Bogart's voice and save it to a floppy disc. In short, any sound can be used as a foundation to create the entire musical scale.

Rockvirgo,
You've got my point.
I want to know differences not only sonic but someway structural as well.
Can't that be just one synthesizer that can sound as all of Hammonds, Rhodes, Oberheim etc... or those mentioned have a very specific and unrepeatable sound?
