Vako Synthesizers Incorporated, founded by electronic instrument pioneer [[David Van Koevering]], and who built licensed versions of the Optigan under the name '''Orchestron''' in the mid-1970s. Intended for professional use as an alternative to the Mellotron, the Orchestron featured improved recorded sounds over the Optigan. Some models included [[music sequencer|sequencers]] and [[synthesizer]]s. While the same fidelity limitations of the Optigan applied to the Orchestron, these instruments were built to be more reliable and were used successfully in commercial recordings.
