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.

Fashion (People) rough #mix, #live #techno #performance on #Yamaha #rm1x - #rm1xapm

Made this song using the Yamaha rm1x, Yamaha #SY35, #Korg #Kaossilator and Korg #Microsampler (just for the voice over). I am arranging my songs on the fly by unmuting/muting tracks, tweaking filters, volumes and so on. The Yamaha rm1x is my main unit for this. Sy35 and Microsampler are sequenced from the rm1x. Kaossilator is 'played' live.

#Yamaha #SY99 #Franken #Grand: #Scriabin #Etude Op. 2 no.1 - #OffTheMatrix

top
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOL-dBoRU8k

This is a #demo of the #new #piano that was #developed for the Yamaha SY99.The Franken Grand was created by using the #best #samples from several #pianos, including samples of a #Bösendorfer #Imperial. The samples really captures the warmth and weight of a large #piano. #AFM made it possible to create a stereo image with mono samples. The #bank uses over 900 kb so it requires that the #flash #RAM of the SY99 be expanded. #Memory #boards for the SY99 can be purchased from #Sector101. This piano could also be used with the Sector101 #WaveBlade on a SY77.
The piano can be found at;

#Yamaha #SY77 / #SY99 #Free #Download #Sounds / #Patches from #Synthoxicated #Pafreak - WORK DISK 2

top
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvXgZaNis70

Hi...another video of my #WORK #DISK with Bank C and D sounds completed.

REMARK - unfinished (base) sounds ARE in Bank A and B. These sound are ...If I do not have anything specyfic in my mind I play with OSC changing their pitch, #waveform and volume.
Then I go throungh all #algorytms and try to catch some sounds or a part of it...maybe only 2 or 3 oscylators produce great sound which is worth to spend time on.
Next time maybe all will sound great...your decision :)
Then you have so many other options like add other #OSC, #envelopes, #effects, #AWM - I have a great fun :)

REMARK - for those who asked me what was the difference between SY77 and SY99 I placed short comparison at the end of the video.
I loaded sounds from SY77 into SY99 without any modifications. You can now see that SY99 has different set up of EFFECTS and AFTERTOUCH.
Sounds on SY99 may be more expresive / rich. Especially REVERB & DELAY effect is much better if adjusted well.

Bank D - 1 brand new sound
Bank C - 11 brand new sounds

#Yamaha #DX7, #TX81z, #SY35 and #SY77: The #Ultimate #Review - #OffTheMatrix

top

This review compares the #sounds of a DX7, TX81z, SY35 and SY77 side by side. Over 20 years was spent creating the Off The Matrix #patches, so the review will reveal the true strengths of each of the #instruments. The first part will be a #demonstration the DX7, TX81z and SY77 playing the same patches. To my surprise the TX81z sounded better for a couple of the patches. The #video will cover the strengths of the TX81z and SY35 over the DX7. The video will end with demonstrations of the SY77 patches as well as the new SY99 samples. A #TQ5 was used to play the TX81z patches, so through much of the video the SY35 is playing the TX81z patches.

The Power Of #CS1x - Ep1 - #Airwolf, The #Terminator, Don't You Want Me, #KnightRider and Jump - #KOSmusic

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvClPvoxags

For many years my wife and I have wanted to create something dedicated exclusively to the #Yamaha CS1x #synthesizer. Finally, after so much work, we are very happy to present you this mini #series in which the #sounds of the CS1x will be the #protagonists.

Each episode will consist of 5 #famous #music presets that I created and performed on the CS1x.
The visual style and structure of these videos is inspired by early 90s learning video tapes.

The initial logo and the music, is a #tribute to one of the most important distributors of #VHS in those years in the #UnitedStates, the "Simitar Entertainment".

To make these videos useful even for those who just want to learn how to play some pieces of this music from the past with their own #keyboard/ #synth, I filmed the synthesizer from above in order to better understand the keys I press.

In this episode there is a brief description of the CS1x and a #demonstration of 5 presets:

• Airwolf Theme - by Sylvester Levay - (Lead)
• The Terminator - Main Title - by Brad Fiedel - (Lead)
• Don't You Want Me - by The Human League - (Brass Chords)
• Knight Rider Theme - by Stu Phillips and Glen A. Larson - (Lead)
• Jump - by Van Halen - (Lead)

For the first time the videos where I play are live (improvised without a metronome). The sound you hear is pure CS1x, with no external effects.

All the #presets you heard in this episode are #available in #SysEx format on my #website: https://kosmusicovers.altervista.org/cs1x-presets/

Loosely comparing #RM1X's internal #sound #generator to my other #gear - #Isobutane

This #video proves nothing (except for my baldness), it was just fun to make.

The first half of the video shows a little #sequence put through the internal sound generator of RM1X.
The second half is the same sequence routed through #MIDI to #Sequential #Prophet Rev2, #Yamaha #EX5R, #Korg #M1, #Behringer #ModelD, #Behringer #Odyssey, and #Novation #DrumStation V1.
Everything is mixed with 1010 Bluebox.
