The Analog Lab NYC-Yamaha SY20 | Op.9 No.1 Prelude for the Left Hand-Alexander Scriabin

Published on Nov 15, 2012 by TheAnalogLab

"A Yamaha SY20 that was recently repaired by The Analog Lab in NYC.

The Yamaha SY20 is an analog mono synth that came out in 1982 AFTER Yamaha released the DX7. It is a surprisingly complex and expressive synth. The SY20 is incredibly rare. It was originally intended to be an "educational" synth for use in learning synthesis. It even has a transposition knob with all 12 notes in the chromatic scale that allows you to transpose up to one octave. This allows you to play the same thing in a different key and not worry about transposing. And the filter sounds awesome. Features include:
