"I Don't Want to Say Goodbye" will be released March 2017.
What makes this video awesome is that after he plays a piece of music on a synth we hear it in an actual production. Love that!
Thank you!
I'm here smiling with my Arturia V collection 😏
best here with roland cloud collection
SYNTH PARTY PLEASE READ this. 5.25" floppy disks are nearing the end of their life. the magnetism starts wearing out 10-20 years. maybe a bit longer if not being used and kept in a super safe environment, but this guy really needs to have that data archived by someone such as The Internet Archive. Not only would he preserve them forever, but let some others check out some of the audio content.
Thanks
"When Hoarders Meet Musicians, Synth Edition." Love the format of this video, telling us about synths, then seeing (or rather hearing) them in actual songs. Fantastic! I'm a subscriber. Also, love Robert's passion for synths and his awesome collection.
What a great video!! Thank you for sharing and hope to see more...really digging that Moog Source
Ok Robert. I'm sat here drooling and jealous as hell. But I have to admit, I love the video.
19, just got a job, and getting my first real analog synth (Juno 60) thanks to your channel :')
David Picarazzi it's a great synth but way overpriced for what it is, check out the Jupiter 6 it's more exiting imo
I absolutely LOVE my 60. I paid 1500 and don't regret it for second..
I personally would look at either a Alpha Juno or Jx3p if I was starting out and wanted that Juno sound, both synths sound very close and even better for certain sounds, the 3P is far better for pads. There are much better synths out there for the money and its not worth spending a fortune on vintage nowadays esp when you could get the Ju06 emulation for very little, put it through a guitar pedal and have a very, very close sound to the real deal.
That's fine but the Jupiter 6 is about twice the price of the Juno 60!
$1500 for a juno 60??????????????? holy shit! I bought 2 of them for $300 each around 2002 on the same day from 2 different people. I only kept them for a few months because they're more like an organ than a synth - ridiculously limited - one oscillator, not much pitch range and no glide. I bought a prophet rev2 new for $1500 a while back and just couldn't fathom anybody paying that for a budget synth from the 80s.
Amazing sounding synths, then you hear their music and it sounds like any shit ad you immediately skip on youtube.
lol
Lmao
You should hear "Intentional" in full. It's actually really good.
The last synth module he was showing is the Yamaha TX81Z. Basically two DX21's in a box. Mine is in the rack to my left. I've had it for...man, going on 30 years I think. Time flys when you're having fun. :)
The MOOG SOURCE sounds great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ive never seen someone look more like they should own a fuck load of synths
Best Comment Ever.
That møog keyboard's sound is really neat, I love the clean videogame sound when you played it
Wow amazing collection!
+Also: did anyone catch him saying, "this was the first analog synth i ever got"..... and it was in 2014.
ceounicom so?
@@SweetChinMuzik1 so that's quite the collection for someone who has just started.
I love this studio tour! Really inspiring to see! Please Robert - make a video about your workflow and songwriting with these machines. All the best! /Johan
JX-3P is fast becoming the synth ppl want. Love the Cat synth, wish never sold mine in the 80's for £50
Great!!!!!!
Great tour! Thanks and keep up the good work.
Wow some great stuff! Brought back many memories! In the 80's I had a Juno 6 , which I changed to a JX-3P with PG200 (best synth I ever owned), then a JX-8P with PG-800. I had a TR707 too! I had a Moog Source for a while but it broke shortly after I got it so the dealer swapped it for an OSCar!! Nowadays just mucking about with a JD-Xi and Logic Pro!!
Whatever type of music is made in a studio, you know you are in safe hands when you see the RE-201!
the octave cat was a crazy lucky find.
acheleg s Octave Kitten was the first synth I got to play. Nice synths.
Never stop making these.
haha thanks Caleb!! We won't stop :)
RobertLoudRobertLoud you stopped :(
Jupiter 6 is just a majesty to behold, holy smokes
That steel case chair is sick! I have a black one, but I like the green.
I have that chair... but with Orange pleather instead of cloth & the plastic back is black.
Any idea what they sell for?
I'm sure that YAMAHA PSS470 was my first keyboard!!!!! Sheesh! I had a casio vl1 as well
Very nice video.. great to see the history of those synth to you ;)
oh SHIT... i got the same love for synths.. and the same watch this dude have...
3:19 - I watched and now own a jx3p with pg200. True story.
Nice! Can't go wrong with the jx3p.
There is one for sale near me.. but no pg200, I'd have to hack something, Also thinking of sticking two 4 voices 'boutiques' together, do these things have any soul? I can't tell from the noodlers videos.. Eard a lot of sounds I liked coming out from actual jx-3p..boutiques not so much, might be uninspired users..
Same story here :D
Jx3p just went from $100 to $800
Same for me too! MKS30 actually.
Got some nice synths rob. That is what I call a synth party.
I would have thought the CMI Fairlight V would be the be all and end all.
it could be more interesting for you to use a vintage hardware sequencer.
Very impressive working museum. :)
great !
You forgot to mention your IKEA Alex desk ☺️ Thinking of getting that also for my studio. Questions: do you think the cable hiding back part of it to be useful? And is it big enough on the depth part to keep the monitor and stuff? Is that a 27" or 24" Cinema Display you got there? I've got an iMac 27" and wonder if it will fit.
Party on!
I've got a Juno 60 and an Alpha Juno 2 I'm trying to find a controller for. Two of the greats. Did you add midi capability to your Juno 60? If so, recommendations?
ok so who is this / what does his stuff sound like? trust baby??
woooooow!!! ..its magicccc!!!!!!!!!!!
You shouldn’t leave your guitars on the sun
cara sensacional isso q viagem no tempo
Cool digs brother! Peace Christo 👍🎶✌🏻👽🛸
Hey Robert, i just found your video here, and wanted to know if you might be in or around, or atleast not tooooo far from NYC? If so, i would like to talk more with you about possibly playing synth on 3 full albums of new 80s sounding pop/rock music, with/for me. And all the other opportunities i have to offer. IF you would like to talk more about this? please get back to me and we will talk. Thank you
He’s a spitting image of Tom Bailey of Thompson Twins
the linn drum sound is some of my favorite I always use the linn drum samples when I'm making music. Never heard of it before using a beat vst from NI then started to prefer it over the 808 stuff.
Very interesting, thanks for the tour ! Although I can't believe that auto-focus can still be this bad in 2017...
it's never been worse! I own a new SONY, FUJI, NIKON, CANON, and SAMSUNG cameras.
NOT ONE has an auto-focus that works almost ever.
(IT's ALL MADE IN CHINA, in the same junky factories.)
(And it can only get worse and worse as Capitalism requires ALL companies reduce the quality of the product every year, and reduce labor costs. They must show GROWTH every year, but that's impossible. That's why even soda pop has 3 inches of empty bottle at the top, despite still lying that it's 2 liters.)
I have a 2010 Panasonic HDC-TM700 Full HD Camcorder with an almost perfect (and fast) auto-focus lens system.
Yeah sorry. We aren't video makers by any means. We will try to be better. We got a canon and the auto focus isn't great.
Id like to be Roberts best friend :)
What was the synth you played at the slumber party this year when you backed up Goldmyth on Has to be better? I love the detuned sound on that track and it was way more noticeable live.
Hey man, I'm pretty local to you, but relatively new to the area, like 3 years. Every time I see something come up on the local used market, it is snatched up immediately. What gives? Like a Kawai Mav-8, snatched up! Who other than me is looking for a mav-8? I keep hearing the same thing, "Just sold it." Who is local and snatching up all this gear?
i think you just found them!
Pretty sure this dude is on tour with The Killers.
You are correct! Robbie is on the road right now.
Who needs friends when you have all that gear 👀
focus maybe?
surprising how many 6 voice synths there have been over the years....I made a list. 6 VOICE SYNTHESIZERS
It's a real shame the autofocus is bugging out on this.
For the thumbnail I thought he was Robert Smith!!! ajjahshsosbsjsjsgn
Me too.
Did you just rob a synth store? Jk... your collection is awesome 👌😍 ❤
this is sick in a sick way...WOW
I have a Source...I wanted it for the exact same reasons
Nice set up!!!!
Thanks George!
how can you choose what to play with all that...........
god damn it
Awesome! Love JX-3P too. If you love JX-3P, you should buy another and get the Kiwitechnics mod. Second env, second LFO, full modern MIDI, velocity, aftertouch, awesome!
You just got in to synths in 2014? What?
Yes, we've had our eye on that mod and will most likely do exactly what you've suggested!
Provo!!!? What???! Im in springville
OMG who focused the camera, Stevie Wonder? :-D Great studio though!
Chesus Xhrist. I wouldn't leave that room if you let me in
so excited for sleep machine. it scared the shit out of me hahaha
Are you secretly Pomo?
And now get some good studio monitors. My god.
Thanks for the advice!
Could you get that 3p sound on a juno-6? Very nice video!
Flamboyant FM it depends on the patch ,the jx has 2 dco's whilst the juno only has 1 vco
Flamboyant FM the most popular things the jx is known for is its brass or string sound capabilities which should not be a problem for the juno
;-) JX 3P Roland very interesting now send for Luthier Friend Human ? Fly...
what's the poster at 7:35?!? looks interesting
Why ismt ur shot turned on?
is that a pioneer 1020L tape deck? got one my self :)
Good eye!
Can I have your Oberheim SEM Pro 2 please? Oh go on! The good deed will replay you ten fold believe me. Seeing as I can already predict your answer..... that JX3P patch was seriously ugly sounding! Seriously though that it a pretty amazing collection of synths you've assembled there. The Octave Cat is really something of a secret weapon and so much more than a mere Odyssey rip off as some unenlightened people would have you believe. In fact, I'd say it slays the Odyssey.
There's too much dust on the Juno 600 ;-))
Provo Utah?
Good stuff.
Teach the other guy to use a camera and focus. Thank you.
Garfunkel
flynn vs. the world 👍🤣
Where can i get the new fictionist album on vinyl?
Welp.... guess i have to subscribe now.....
Great kit....but if you're going to shoot VT, learn about focus mate!
no need for that shameless plug 2.06 mins in ... tut tut
No one ever points at any of their equipment and goes, "actually its pretty shit and overhyped"
ceounicom I was thinking the same, but then again if that's what they thought it wouldn't be in their studio to begin with
Generally you sell the stuff that you don't need or love...
I don't think that's true. I have a lot of gear, and much of is GOOD in ___ way, and BAD in _____ way.
EX: I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Behringer EPA 40 battery amp / PA.... as does everyone... but we HATE that the batteries are faulty etc.
The one that is overhyped is probably the jupiter 6.
So true! haha. We get blinding by Gear Acquisition Syndrome. After awhile we do sell things and try others. But at the moment we wear sincere and really do love all types of old gear.
funny to see the cheap ass pss-470. i always tell everyone, if you want to get in synths, get a 470. its dirty cheap but awesome.
Everybodys synth collection is baically the same these days.
Some people have an almost savant level knack for instilling negativity into any moment haha
being observant doesn't mean you're negative. I say buy and use what you like. I've had stuff and passed on stuff over the years which would be worth a LOT more money today. I don't miss it. but most of these youtube synth collectors seem to be more museum curators than active musicians. yeah, it'd be nice to have a collection of 100 synths (or cars or whatever.) but do you actually play them (or drive them?)
Shit man wtf has that geezer got on his head
So jealous
A guy who likes to own/show off vintage synths, - doesnt know how to handle them, doesent come from that era...result: very poor... i mention one name: Espen Kraft...
All this gear and his music is still below average
when you said "pro tools" the party ended. then you said it again. buzzkill follower. what's with detuning? Got chops?
Snoo Lee yeah ,pro tools have lost the plot
I don't personally use Pro Tools, but what's the big deal?
old synth out of tune.....
