The wonderful Yamaha SY-2


video upload by Paul Curreri

"A few sounds from the Yamaha SY-2 (1975 or so), the upgraded version 2 of Yamaha’s earliest standalone. Such a lovely filter, and remarkably expressive aftertouch to the VCO, VCA or VCF. Start with any of the adjustable presets and meander from there. Pitch bend, portamento, pulse width, two ADSRs, resonant high- and low-pass filters, super-fast vibrato. Plus it's never had a problem in the 6 years I've owned it & has classic CS vibes? Not too shabby."
