SOUND BLAST FROM THE PAST: THE YAMAHA QY-70


Published on May 7, 2019 Audio Wanderer

"A demostration of the capabilities of the most beloved portable machine from Yamaha QY series. Not so small like a VHS (QY-10) not too big like a brick (the QY-100) just the right size to call it portable and the right function to be a full MIDI studio. Crispy sound and lots of instruments to create a complex music with it.
You can listen the complete version of the tracks featured on this video here:

Side note: Be sure to back yours up if you own one. I owned one and brought it along on my honeymoon, yes I did. :) I created a minimal Joy Division, New Orderish track on it waiting for a ferry. I socked it away for a few years, and when I decided to check it out again, the track was lost because the internal battery died! Couldn't believe it. I had to recreate an approximation of it.
