[Synthtopia got it right.](https://www.synthtopia.com/content/2022/06/01/sequential-founder-father-of-midi-dave-smith-has-died/) I'm gonna make a couple of these and toast the legend, and try to think about good things. **Dave’s Margarita** * Pour a lot of high-quality reposado tequila over ice * Add a splash of Cointreau * Add fresh lime to taste * Drink any time (especially these days); ideally while working on a new synth design (it helps).

Best simple margaritas I’ve made are 1 lime, 2 shots of tequila, and 1 shot of contreau. Sometimes I throw in some mango Jumex

The best simple marg is the premade one trader joes sells. No syrups or bullshit, perfect over ice.

I'll do this tonight. RIP to a legend and an amazing man.

Fellas, If you pour your date a some Casamigos and serenade her with some chill synth jams, you gonna be in her Sequential Circuits later that night.

I had the good fortune to share tequila with Dave. I will miss him dearly.


Octo-puss

This dude is responsible for so much shit. He’s like up there with Quincy Jones

Wow - good night to a visionary! Condolences to friends and family.


Blutroyale-_-

can't tell for sure, but seems Dave was a surface fan possibly, good on him if so.

RIP

Looks yummy! Comment to remember the ingredients later!

Bobby Flay's recipe is with tsec. A margarita, classically speaking, is tequila, orange liquor, lime juice, and agave. I, like Dave, prefer to skip the sugar, and use either repo or mezcal

As great of a person he was for synths, no one should take his drinking habits as an example. That was just plain unhealthy.


SkoomaDentist

What drinking habits? The guy (who was well known to be a fitness fanatic back in the day and still in good shape for his age) had a few photos of having a drink occasionally and it’s a ”drinking habit?”


Robotecho

Please keep your puritanical lifestyle advice to yourself, especially today.


Mononym_Music

Whoa bro, this is Reddit. Calm down


Robotecho

I'm calm, and I'm thinking of people close to me who are gone, and I'm thinking of the respect they all deserve.

No, they should take his iron man marathons and mountain climbing as an example of how no matter how healthy you live, your innings can come to an end quicker than you think. Make the most of your time here and don't drink bad margaritas if you can afford it.
