Seer Systems is software technology company founded in 1992 by Stanley Jungleib, a staff of Sequential Cuircuits.

Working in conjunction with w:en:Intel, then w:en:Creative Labs, and finally as an independent software developer and retailer, Seer helped lay the groundwork for a major shift in synthesis technology: using personal computers, rather than dedicated synthesizer keyboards, to create music.
