The #cheapest #MIDI #home-studio of 1988 - #debuglive

top

Take an #AtariST, 4 #budget #synths from 1988, and spend months seeing how far they can go - all while staring at a black-and-white CRT! I took me over a year to make this given most of the equipment was #DOA and keeping in mind there's another part coming later this year.

Massive thanks to mu:zines and archive.org for their incredible collections. This led me to all the cheapest gear that people were actually using back in the day. Thanks also to all those I reached out to who verified most of the findings and gave me amazing insights to the gear of the day.

Gear used: #Atari #520ST (mostly), #Roland #MT-100, #Yamaha #MusicStation #PSS-580, #Kawai #K1, Yamaha #EMT-10, Dr T MIDI Recording Studio, #Cubase 1.5 and Rotel mini system.
