Jan Hammer - Miami Vice Theme

Synths and guns. What more could you ask for. A little Fairlight action. Note the gun on the Fairlight at the end. BTW, anyone know what that keytar is?

  1. Grr, that issue of Keyboard is in at the studio, but I believe it's a custom job called The Probe. The first Probe was just a rectangular box with a keyboard attached to a swiveling cube with wheels & controls. Later on he started appearing with the one in the video. The Lync was a commercially available controller based on the latest Probe design, but I'm not sure if they were actually affilliated with the Probe folks.

    The fuzz guitar sound is a Memorymoog through a grey MXR Flanger & a Rockman through a Sunn amp.

    The drums are his own Gretsch drums sampled with a tad of Lexicon 200 into the Fairlight.

    The track was sequenced on Page R.

    He's the only man in history to have made a DX-7 sound remotely appealing (pun intended).
