Iftah Gabbai is building a dataset of “hardware synthesizers, samplers, and drum machines” produced since 1896, “compiled through a mix of automated and manual processes, combined with extensive research.” For each of the 2,300+ devices identified, the dataset indicates its name, brand, release year, years in production, device type (synth, sampler, et cetera), form factor, architecture, synth engine used, number of keys, key type, oscillator count, and more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Omj405hkOt0
