Baroque Variations - Roland MC-202 and Fairlight CVI Video


YouTube via itisnick.

"Early set of video variations set to the music of J. S. Bach. Avoid food or beverages."

via ニコラス・ケント on AH:
"The Roland MC-202 originally came with a data cassette containing some Bach and Debussy 2-part demo sequences. I guess you could practice you own cut rate Carlos and Tomita interpretations with them.

Anyway way back when I wanted to test out the tape sync and layered the Roland MC-202's onboard synth a couple times to fill out the sound by recording the two parts a couple times each with different MC-202 synth patches. So thatr's where the music came from.

All 3, but especially the second piece has audio distortion (unintentional) but hey, it's real analog distortion ;-).

Then as a separate project I wanted to run a Fairlight CVI (Computer Video Instrument) through it's paces. So that's where the video comes from. Blame 1980s Aussie technology ;-) The chroma keying by the way is done by an analog Grass Valley switcher. You can't get keys like that out of a CVI."
