Yes, Serge handed the business over to Rex Probe and it became Sound Transform Systems around the early 90's. They (SMMS and STS) have been hand crafting systems continuously since 1974.

Blacet, MOTM, Modcan, and DotCom preceded Doepfer.

I think Doepfer's A100 modular came out in 1995 and Dot.com's modular came out in 2000.

I stand corrected. Going by the AH archives:

Doepfer: 1995
ModCan: 1996
MOTM: 1997
DotCom: 1998 (announced on AH in 2000)

I thought Doepfer was 2001 because that was the first NAMM show I had seen them.
