Casio FZ-1 aliasing and loop cross-fading

video upload by Collector Current

"Changing the amount of loop crossfading has the side effect of changing the interpolation algorithm of the Casio FZ-1 sampler. Even when playing a non-looping sound.

At lower values, crossfading can sound like a stutter or an echo.

Testing 9 Experimental Pedal Combinations – Ambient, Loops & Sound Design

video upload by A Last Picture From Voyager

"In this video, I test 9 experimental guitar pedal combinations for ambient loops, textures, and sound design.
If you feel stuck using the same pedals in the same way, experimenting with new pedal chains can unlock fresh ideas.
Even without the same pedals, this walkthrough can help you imagine new ways to use your own gear for ambient and experimental music.

Let me know in the comments if any of these combinations sparked new ideas for you.

RetroSound Studio Tour: Vintage Hardware Sampler from the 80s

video upload by RetroSound

"RetroSound Studio Tour: Classic Hardware Sampler from the 1980s

In this episode of RetroSound Studio, I explore legendary vintage hardware samplers that shaped early digital music production. From professional 8-bit and 12-bit studio machines to iconic toy sampling keyboards, these instruments defined the sound of 1980s electronic music, hip-hop, experimental, and synth-based production.

The E-mu Emulator II became one of the most iconic 8-bit samplers ever produced, known for its warm analog filters and unmistakable character. The E-mu Emax brought professional sampling to more studios with its gritty 12-bit sound. The PPG Waveterm, paired with the PPG Wave system, represents one of the earliest digital sampling and wavetable workstations in synthesizer history.

On the experimental side, the Casio SK-1 and Yamaha VSS-200 introduced affordable lo-fi sampling to a generation of musicians, becoming cult classics for their crunchy digital tone and creative limitations.

These vintage samplers shaped genres such as synth-pop, early hip-hop, industrial, experimental electronic music, ambient, and film scoring. Today, they remain highly sought after by producers and collectors researching vintage hardware samplers, 80s sampling technology, Emulator II sound, Emax workflow, PPG Waveterm history, and lo-fi sampling keyboards.

If you are interested in classic digital sampling, early electronic music production, or rare retro studio gear, this RetroSound Studio episode offers an in-depth look at some of the most influential samplers ever built."

RetroSound Studio Tour: Vintage Digital Synthesizers

video upload by RetroSound

"RetroSound Studio Tour:
Legendary Vintage Digital & Hybrid Synthesizers of the 80s and early 90s

In this episode of RetroSound Studio, I explore classic digital synthesizers that revolutionized electronic music production during the 80s and early 90s. From FM synthesis and wavetable synthesis to vector synthesis, PD synthesis, vitual analog and Roland’s LA synthesis, these instruments introduced a new generation of sound design and defined the sonic identity of an era.

The Yamaha DX7 became one of the best-selling synthesizers of all time, defining FM electric pianos and metallic digital textures. The PPG Wave pioneered wavetable synthesis, laying the foundation for modern digital sound engines. The Sequential Prophet VS introduced vector synthesis, allowing dynamic blending between digital waveforms. The Roland D-50 shaped late-80s pop and film scoring with its LA synthesis architecture, while the Roland JD-800 brought hands-on control back to digital synthesis in the 1990s.

These digital synthesizers shaped genres such as synth-pop, new wave, ambient, house, techno, trance, and film music. Today, they remain highly sought after by producers, collectors, and sound designers researching vintage digital synthesizers, 80s keyboard sounds, virtual analog, classic FM synthesis, and wavetable history."
