    I was lucky to get one for £360, I have seen TR-707's go for as much as £800 here in the UK. Even back in like 2005 I wanted a TR-707 although I heard it on recordings not knowing at the time it was a TR-707 that all these producers from the late 80s and early 90s were using. I agree they are certainly not worth paying too much money for but if you can get one for a fairly reasonable price it's worth it if lofi PCM drums is your thing.

    Electronically created 'music' has always appealed to me, along with sophisticated polyphonic acoustic compositions. But I come back to Jean Michel Jarre (and collaborator Michel Geiss) and Jarre's definition - 'building a resonate landscape somewhere between technology and ecology'. Melody - a soulful riff, counter-balanced with bass and rhythm and enhancing effects make a composition appealing, along with the classic Movement structure. Some early musicians thought they had to reproduce 'classical'' music to have validity with keyboards and tech. Much of the output I think was dismal - the same problem at the avant-garde end of the spectrum - ''Bleeps and Bloops'. For me the exception here was Isao Tomita - his interpretation of Debussy tone poems 'Snowflakes are Dancing' - beautiful. And beauty is the key. There was Perry/Kingsley 'Popcorn' as well. I have followed Jarre/Vangelis (his mature work) and really bits of TD and Brian Eno (Apollo - Atmospheres and Soundtracks) and Equatorial Stars . Today, I don't think anyone is making engaging ambient music. I have heard pieces tossed away on Royalty Free sites - eg, 'Peace and Quiet'' (Sounds From The Leftfield). Ambient1 by 'BalanceBalance?' (featured on RUclips channel The Secret Vault - ''Orfordness Secret Radar' - seriously) - it appealed to me but the original track cannot be found. Thanks. -Andrew Mackenna, Christchurch, New Zealand 7/24

    It is possible that after you put a few notes in a pattern in the Step sequencer, instead of the pattern remaining with the fixed notes, it will work in another scale as well. like an arpeggiator? That is, to move up and down the scale? Because I can't find any function related to Pitch shift or something... or only fixed notes in pattern!

    FYI: The "golden unit" that UADx Minimoog aka modeled after is late '70s (serial in the 7000s or so). There were two other Minis in the room for comparison of unit to unit variation, of which there was plenty. One was early '70s and the other was early '80s with the later oscillator design. There were no re-issues on the bench during development.

    I was working in a music store when it came out, it instantly became my favorite. I had just bought an Emax II... I could make my own "rompler" sounds...but the JD-800 was so sweet sounding. The sliders... oh yes.... but I went crazy and wanted the best analog synth ever made. I was 20 years old, my boss convinced me to get a used Oberheim Xpander. I still have it. And I picked up a JD-800 for $600 a few years later :)

  • @mitchelstephen7536
    @mitchelstephen7536 9 дней назад

    The digital LFO... Shit then I'm totally fucked with my Oberheim Xpander...Hahahahahha!!!!!!! By the way, the Jupiter 6 has digital LFOs and envelopes as well. If you mean the LFO re-triggers with every keypress and the move from the CEM3340 and the IR3109 to the chips used on the JX 8P and cousins, Yes, you can hear the difference. It sounds ... not as good. But that has nothing to do with digital LFOs.

    I have a TB-303, RE-303, TT-303, TD-3 and the MO and none sound like the tb-303. Close, but the organic warm squelchiness can’t be matched…. The TB sounds more musical too…. The clones do a good job though.

    What are you talking about? Just get a dx7 for the best electric piano, then add the rest of what you want. Add Rack mount synths and sampled piano stuff. Nothing beats the dx7 electric piano sounds and you can have Rhodes and Wurlitzers that sound much better then Roland or a a red Nord. Got my dx7 25 years ago used for $200 US. Good luck finding it today at that price. Trust me live the dx7 sounds the best because I’ve tried the others and they sometimes come a close 2nd best or worst.

    Picked up a MX49 for playing keys with a cover band. I'm planning on it to be my top board, and have a larger keyboard on bottom for more bread-and-butter sounds. But with a bit of hassle I can use the 49 as the only keyboard on a gig. I might have to use the octave button to play a piano solo in the right range and put it back for comping, and it takes some planning to get the splits right for pads and leads on one performance option. But it's doable. What I do not like is there's no way to one-key call up a performance. You have to hit a button, arrow or scroll, and hit a button again. Kind of a pain in the ass on a gig where a tune might just get called out.

  • @timwendt1935
    @timwendt1935 13 дней назад

    Kind of a dumb take. It's boutique. It's for fans of the original. It's a small audience. I can't imagine that Korg intended this to be a big seller to a younger audience. As someone who has an original 700, the build is better than the original - better switches, sliders, real wood sides and better keyboard BY FAR. Back in the 70s, the average musician could not afford a Moog. This was the first, generally available and affordable synth. It was actually a much better choice than a Minimoog because, before digital presets, you could quickly repatch for a different song with a few flips of the switches. I remember playing a Cars song with a classic synth lead sound and then repatching for a French horn for a Christopher Cross song in about 2 seconds. People who are seeing the 700FS for the first time don't realize that it was designed to to get fast access to a wide variety of classic synth voicings with a few flips.

    Recently purchased myself a D-50 in great shape. It was love at first sight. The sound is quite unique compared to any other synthesizer I've heard or played. (Both vintage and new.) I find myself playing it some three times a week now. There are hundreds of patch banks (sys ex) available online to try out different sounds. And the midi dump procedure very very easy, using Sys Ex Librarian application on my Mac. So I can change patch banks at any moment, to fit the song I'm working on. But foremost I've come to know the synth now as a very inspirational musical instrument. the overall feel and sound of the machine, invite me to search for new chord progressions, new ideas. Going in to edit mode to alter or create sounds feels familiar. The lay out of screen and buttons, make navigating quite easy for a digital synth. It's excellent instrument and still relevant today, especially compared to it's main rivals back in the day. The Yamaha DX7 and the Korg M1. The Yamaha was a bit of a revolution, but the FM synthesis very hard to program. The M1 sounds beautiful, but it's more a rompler than a synthesizer. Sound tweaking is limited and no filters. So, if given the choice, I'd choose the D-50.

    • @granturismo5742
      @granturismo5742 13 дней назад

      D-50 has some nice and interesting sound for sure, but it cannot filter the PCM waveform. On the other hand, filter on M1 can make a Brass waveform sounds from hissing bright to Sine-like mellow, and from there, with so many envelope parameters, you can make a string pad or sweeping FX out of it.
