Sounds of some synths and effects. Mostly no talking but some text info will display at times.
80's Setup
This is a setup I used with a 80's type rockband.
It was a lot of fun putting it toghether and programing the synths to work.
Vintage gear is not obsolete.
The gear consists of a Roland JX-8P with KIWI8P and Yamaha DX7 mk.II with E! installed. For effects I use a BOSS CE-2, Eventide H9 and NEO Ventilator 2. All of this goes through a small 8 channel mixer.
If you have any questions, just ask!

Prophet VS
zhlédnutí 1,9KPřed rokem
This was an eye opener for me. I always thought this sounded dull and strange in the shops. Then I got one to my home and I got to spend hours on it. It truly is a masterpiece of a synth. It was in working order but had intermitent chrashes. So I got a new power supply from synthronics.de and put coolers on those CEM5530 chips and it now works perfect.

Korg PE1000
zhlédnutí 1,3KPřed 2 lety
Korg PE1000. One of the first polys to reach the market. Each Key has its own oscillator, 60 in total. Has a uniqe sound. This was a restoration job I did. Recap took its time with over 200 caps to switch out.
Korg BX-3, 1979 analog clone wheel.

This is a video on the analog Korg BX-3 from 1979. Still sounds just great. The setup is my live rigg, using a Eventide H9, Neo Ventilator II and Lounsberry OrganGrinder. I love it!!!
DW-6000 (New patch set)
zhlédnutí 3,7KPřed 4 lety
Is this old digital oscillator with only 8 waveforms anything to have...? Yes! It has one of the best filters ever made and a very fat tone. I've made a completly new patch set for it , matching the old one. This synth had it's memory swiped so I needed new sound so I figured I just make them. They are for sale if you are interested . Just throw me a mail. Disclaimer, I had hurt my leg pretty b...
Oberheim OB12 Is it just wrong?
zhlédnutí 3,1KPřed 4 lety
In this rather long video I try to demonstrate all the features of the OB12. Both it's weak spots but also it's strength's. In my mind, it's a really good synth, well laid out and can do epic sounds. It has a lot of features that not many synth have. At least on papper. Some things just don't work. If it's because of a weak CPU or badly writen firmware, I don't know. But I just stay away from t...
Kawai K4, The dirty one
zhlédnutí 23KPřed 4 lety
This video shows of the Kawai K4. It has a special tone to it. And why it always surprises me how good sounds that can come out of though it is so cheap and flimsy it is.
Korg 01R/W
zhlédnutí 9KPřed 4 lety
A short take on the Korg 01R/W early 90's romplar that came out after M1 and T-series. It has one feature not seen in any of the other Korg workstations untill rescent years, Waveshaping. If this had not been implemented, I think this synth would be pretty boring. But with it , it really becomes alive.
Poly Pulse
zhlédnutí 1,1KPřed 4 lety
This is my polyphonic setup with 6 Waldorf Pulses. It becomes a massive synth. It's almost like a Memorymoog with 3 oscillators per voice and 24db filter... "almost". You can also do different setups. Say you layer 2 Pulses for a 3 voice with combined patches. You have 6 arpeggiators at your disposal. with different clocks, octaves, sounds. The only downside is the space it takes to have it.
Memorymoog
zhlédnutí 1,7KPřed 4 lety
I had the opportunity to take care for this magnificent peice of instrument for while. tI has been one of biggest dreams to own one since i was a boy with toys. Now that I tested it for some time i can say that for the price, I'd rather go for the Moog One. Sure, I still want one but only, more or less, as a collectors item. But It can still perform and make sounds like no other.
MiniBrute vs Bodyssey
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 4 lety
In this video I compare the Behringer Odyssey against Arturias MiniBrute 2 They are at the same price level and are about the same in specs but with very different layouts. I dont think there's a winner because they are really good instrumemts and sound great. It's more in what use you will have for them and what kind of workflow you're used to.
Ensoniq MrRack Expansion 3in1
zhlédnutí 2,1KPřed 4 lety
In this video I show how to upgrade and connect your MrRack with the 3in1 expansion from DXP. It's a quick process and you gain a lot. You get exp boards 1, 3 and 4 and they all sound great with drums, transwave pads and leads, pianos. You also get a fair amount of patches. The song here is recorded with sound straight out of the box, no add on FX or EQ. And remember it's only a sound demo, not...

This Video was a test mostly for a new Video software is was testing out. I'm strugling to learn it but im getting there. This just took too long and as you'll se in the end it just craps out and I couldn't fix that.. ??? (Sorry) The Hawk800 is truely a must for the Poly800 in my mind. it makes this synth go from lame to cool, with the AtomaHawk and FM800 mods. This is just some presets for tes...

Zin Circuits Memory expansion for EPS 16
Thank you for your video. I wonder if you could help me understand how I can set up the Korg 01R/W with a Roland A-80 Midi Keyboard controller with a Focusrite sound module and working with logic pro on a Mac. I would greatly appreciate it. If you could tell me what the Midi inputs and outputs should be from what to what, to make this work. Nobody has been able so far to help me. Everybody talks about USB but I'm stuck with Midi. Thank you so much in advance for your help.
@@medslimweightloss send me an email and try and help you

I would like to buy one for my ASR X
Dear Joakim, your playing on this video sounds incredible. A truly fantastic hommage to this great underrated synth ! Are these your sound patches ? It would be so cool to know your settings (through the good old « patch sheets »), so one could try and replicate them on the cousin keyboard AX73 or the rack mounted VX90 ! Your sounds are incredible !! My AX73 hopes to be programmed hat way !! All the best
Hi! Thank you so very much! These are my patches, not a whole bank of them so it's nothing I'm going to sell at them moment. But you should be able to replicate them in the AX73 I think.
Very interesting! I have the opportunity of buying a second hand VP70, and I would be delighted to make parafonic my Minibrute and my VolcaBass. Thank you for the presentation!
Nice demo ! Happy BX-3 owner here too I have added an foot switch for the "leslie" and also I use mono-volume pedal too. I have additional old Yamaha preamp with spring echo and tremolo, that is connected into the "efect loop" of the organ. I also tested Behringer "stereo bass chorus" to mimic the Leslie sound when using a stereo mixer and PA. But I also use rotary speaker ( not Leslie ) to run the organ. Only thing I have not been able to fully use is the "chorus/vibrato" since it "eats a lot of the signal", but that can be balanced with the foot volume pedal on the run. If I ever get a change to buy another BX-3, I will try to get a one for the reserve. I tested several digital "clonewheel" organs, but their sounds are so fake....this is "enough good" organ for most of the needs when playing with other instruments in a band. Get a one if you can !
@@rikunevalainen8154 I'm running mine at live shows. It's great for what I do .🤗
@@No_Nag gotta build a road case for mine, I do not want to destroy it...I have tested tens of organs, but so far BX-3 has been the best.
@@rikunevalainen8154 got one with wheels. Bone white vinyl wrapping. 😁
Instant nostalgia. The first default patch was used on Babylon Zoo's Spaceman.
That was a badass board back in the day!
Still is 😁
Hell yeah! Nice work. 9:40 caught me off guard, such a unique patch. Big fan of 16:40 too. Nice.
@@GeorgeL909 Thank you so much 🤗
this was gorgeous. How good is the onboard sequencer?
It's ok. Quirky but fine when you get used to it. But it's "old" so don't expect to much from it. 😁
@@No_Nag my expectations are very high because as far as I understand it, you can lay down eight different tracks of sequenced synths. That's amazing.
@@wholeheartedsongs well, it's not setup for live sequencing. Its more of a workstation sequencer.
@@No_Nag but you can playback all eight tracks simultaneously correct?
@@wholeheartedsongs yes.
Superb Video! Love Waveshaping mine!! czcams.com/video/mcmcncYuftI/video.htmlsi=tj4jnHwO1hNcU4pi
btw.: the Init Sound is good for a melody like PPK - Resurrection, I played around with... and a K3 and a Korg 707 are still on my wishlist for the future
The 707 😛
I love quirky synths of all kinds. I feel like many analog polysynths sound "same-y," but the AX-80 has it's own character (love it or hate it lol). I only own digital synths (my Ensoniq Mirage has analog filters though!), so I'm not picky about DCOs sounding "cold." Most of the character of the sound comes from the amps and filters anyway.
Shure you can tell the difference between a DCO and VCO. But I would not stand for that all VCO is better than DCO. Would take a Juno 60 over Sequential six trak any day 😛
We used the DB9 to gate our pads in our track “Surface Reflections - Ticket to heaven” in middle 90’. We had two of them for each channel. 😀
2 for each channel 🤔 🤗
M1 and 01 are still some of my favorite Korg synths to date.
Still have a T3 in my collection...
@@No_Nag Those Waveshaping options on the 01 really have a special place for me as well. Was my first 'workstation' synth in high school.
cool basic play
I can get fast envelopes and convincing sounding PWM without the mod.
Ok?
Действительно классный ❤
The funny thing is 8 bit digital was the norm in '88 and '89. The Roland D50 (1987) was 8 bit. I think the Korg M1 (1988) may have been one of the first 16 but synths. Roland samplers of this era were also 12 but, 16 but wasn't the norm until the 90s.
Expensive technology in that time. Memory chips where like gold 😛
The Kawai k4 Filter is awesome.
Most characterful rompler I have heard. What a concept, true synthesizer part that allows for some programming of non-realistic sounds. Was it an answer to the SY series or an own attempt to break out from the full realism that the M1 offered?
Well Roland had ringmod on the D50 and Yamaha had AWM into AFM as you mentioned so I think Korg where a little late on ball with "Pcm shaping". But it is a really nice feature which also where left out on later romplers...
I have a crumar bit one, but its very noise, the patches are not sound like a youtube videos, Could it be that it is deprogrammed? or damaged? Everything seems to work, but it doesn't sound good to me, I don't know the presets sound, not all of them, what could it be? Do you have any combination of buttons or switches to reset it? Can the data be loaded again? how is it done? some information? help me thanks
I bought a K4 when they came out and I still have it. And for good reason. They sound great, inexpensive, relatively speaking, and easy to edit and program. They have some great meat and potatoes sounds also. Some of the most realistic brass and string sounds. And check out the tympani. Very real and usable. I don't plan to ever get rid of it.
Como vai meu amigo? Bem, espero!!! Pode me ajudar com uma questão? Tenho lutado há algum tempo para conseguir configurar minh Behringer BCR2000 para controlar meu POLY 800 MK2, mas não consigo acertar os parametros MIDI. Me ajude a entender, por favor... Saudações do Brasil
Sounds awesome
Thank you!
Akai VX90 added to eBay and Reverb alerts...
I can´t get any answer on the info site :-(
I took me some time as well. He doesnt reply fast. 😕
Hi, Can i transfer midi sysex in 01R/w? Thank for you video! Is amazing
Yes, it works with sysex. Thank you 🤗
Will you share or sell your set?
I'm working on my patch bank right now So I will be selling.
@@No_Nag Ok, I will check sometimes here...
I can just imagine how inexpensively I could’ve gotten the SQ 80 back in 2000 when my synthesizer mania originated. Here it is, 24 years later. Now, it’s beginning to tempt me.
Completely under rated at the time. I thought mine where a bit expensive at 450 when I bought mine...
pretty sure the preset around 10:30 is what trent reznor used on "that's what I get"
If so, that is very Cool 🤗
I love this idea. And the execution in these examples. It is not that common that somebody does share a really useful application via CZcams. Thanx a lot, I'll definitely try this on my new album with my VP70! And regarding those offensive critics in some comment: I got how this works from first looking at it. Who doesn't, should better not try, IMHO. That's not beginners stuff, this is serious "gear abuse"! ;-)
Hey! Thanks. Well it is a fun piece of gear to lab and play around with. Glad that I could inspire 🤗
Mine packed up a few years ago but I've tracked d9meome down who may be able to repair it I always loved it's deeppunchy sound although it sounds nothing like a 303
No 303. But good punch on it's own 🤗
Hi, i like these sounds. Well done video. One question: what are the buttons in the high left side for? Thanks!
Hi! Thank you for kind words. The button beside the Bender are for transpose, portamento and solo/monophonic play. The ones up above are for system and patch editing. Best regards 🤗
@@No_Nag thanks a lot!🙂
Hello !! Do you share these patches or sell them?
I'm planing to make a whole bank of sounds for it and then sell them. But for right now, neither. Best regards 🤗
Im definitely going to grab this! I just installed a Usb drive in my Ensoniq Eps 16 Plus and replaced the floppy 💾 disk drive!
I got it one year after it was released. After DX21 it was a jump comparable with buying a lexus after fiat seicento. It tried to compete with M1 and D50, but the egineers from Kawai avoided their first intention to build-in sequencer and a few advanced hardware solutions, concluding correctly it wouldn't match the price expected. Anyway, the machine was excellent, pleasant to play, full of sound, versatile and not too complicated to edit. It provided me a lot of satisfaction both on gigs and in studio. Even now it can compete with modern gear, as we can hear also from this demonsreation...
Best Prophet ever 🤩
Really trying to like it… but it just sounds too thin and brittle. The layout and control surface I absolutely adore on it though. Wish Oberheim made an ACTUAL proper analog version of this synth
Picked up an AX73 for $270 last month. Not nearly the features of this synth, but I do enjoy it. Surprised there aren’t really any mods for it. Great video!
I'd take one over a Prophet 5 / 10 anytime.
Sono contento che tu abbia l'originale. Ma hai fatto una registrazione da schifo, con un rumore infernale.
That Ventillator sounds great!
Anyone tried this on a KT-76 or KT-88?
I have a KT-88. It's so heavy it has it's own moon orbeting
It has this slightly dark depth that gives its character. Great for Depeche Mode stuff and Ambient.
@7:40 is what it’s all about right? Sick
the sound of science fiction
just got mine. The waveshaping is so fun to manipulate. love these sounds!!!!
14:46 - That bell sound destroys a DX7. 19:03 - Lifelike organ! 23:29 - The ace up the sleeve for strings. Being able to have a slower PWM on low notes allows big sweeping PWM without getting murky on bass. My fascination with the Memorymoog began when I failed a comparison test on Gearspace, where five MM and five JP-8 clips were uploaded. As a JP-8 owner, I recognized one preset, but for the rest, guessed that whichever clips sounded better were JP. I was lucky to play one in person and it had a weight to the sound that crushed my JP-8 along with my OB-8 and Prophet-5. I might just have to get a Trigon-6 module one day to enjoy the power of three oscillators on a polyphonic synthesizer. No room for the behemoth Memorymoog itself.
@@No_NagI also used to have an SQ-80 for three-oscillator fun, that I stupidly sold to make room for an Emax.
