Ultravox Vienna ~ Vintage Synthesizer Recreation ~ RetroSound


video upload by RetroSound

"(c)2007-24 by RetroSound
supported by UVI: http://bit.ly/retrosound-uvi

❤️ Support #RetroSound​ channel: https://retrosound.creator-spring.com

One of my favorite tracks from the early 80s.
Vienna by Ultravox (1981)
Written by Midge Ure, Billy Currie, Chris Cross and Warren Cann

featured: Moog Minimoog from the year 1978, Logan String Melody2 and the Linndrum

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers.
Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube.
Thank you.

Rare ARP 2600 Blue Marvin Jam (w/ Cameron Graves)


video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

"It's always fun to perform with my good friend Cameron Graves aka "The Planetary Prince". I was introduced to Cameron and his brother Taylor Graves in 2008 by Jada Pinkett Smith when we co-scored her film, The Human Contract. We've remained friends and musical brothers ever since. We hope you enjoy this music that we created right before the cameras started rolling . We intend to make more of these synth jam videos in the near future.
We're playing the solos on an extremely rare ARP 2600 "Blue Marvin" which was a prototype for the Tonus ARP 2600 that actually went into production. The rest of the synths include a later model gray faced ARP 2600, an orange faced ARP 2600, the Korg ARP 2600 M, Moog Minimoog, Korg MS-20 and ARP Omni String Synthesizer. The drums are performed by my engineer Ben Rachlis on a vintage LinnDrum the he is processing through The OTO Biscut, Bim, Bam and Boom.
Please remember to like and subscribe to these videos. It would mean a lot to me and my dedicated and enthusiastic crew. Thank you to all for your support and inspiring comments!

Details via Reverb

"This week, we stumbled upon an extraordinary discovery—a Linn LM-1 drum machine. This rare gem stands apart from its more prevalent counterpart, the LM-2, as only a limited production run of approximately 500 LM-1 units was ever crafted. This unit, with serial number 382, is in impeccable condition considering its age.

Renowned bands and artists such as The Human League, Michael Jackson, and Prince have employed the distinctive sound of the LM-1 on chart-topping hits. Notably, Prince's LM-1 remains on display at Paisley Park. Even four decades since its initial release, the LM-1 (or at least its samples) continues to be a highly coveted tool in the realm of electronic music production.

Upon its debut in 1980, it was the first drum machine to incorporate real drum samples that were recorded and stored on an EPROM chip. These samples were recorded by Roger Linn himself who meticulously captured and stored the sounds of a real drummer playing a kick, snare, toms, and more. The samples were then played back using variable sample rates through its filters and amps, creating a distinctive sound character that's hard to duplicate with modern samplers.

Discovering an original Linn LM-1 drum machine in excellent condition is exceptionally rare, making this week's find the ultimate addition to any music maker, gearhead, or collector's repertoire."

Madonna: "Into the Groove" Recreated using the same gear!!


video upload by Neon Nights: 1980s Music Production

"Hey guys!
This video and recreation of Madonna 1985 hit 'Into the Groove' has been a labor of love.

After obtaining the original Multitrack master (I cannot share). I was able to dive in and recreate each sound, and arrangement using the same synths as the original song. With the exception of a MKS 80, ( BASS) TR-727 (I used samples), and an Emulator II (for the PIANO solo).

It took over a week to map out, arrange, record, and mix. It was a ton of fun learning how the song was made. It was recorded with a UAD Apollo 16 , and Luna.

I hope you enjoy ! Comment please!

-Jon"

Luma-1 - playing lost LM1 patterns


video upload by DeftAudio

"Playing LM1 patterns on Luma-1 live, no post processing. Yamaha DMP11 used as the FX for delay and Gated Verb.

Luma-1 is an authentic recreation of the iconic LM-1, originally designed by Roger Linn in 1979 and now brought back by Joe Britt. Fully recreating the original design of the LM-1, it utilizes the same audio path (with vintage DACs and filters), runs the unmodified LM-1 software, and adds a secondary modern processor for adding highly desirable features like loadable sounds, USB connectivity, MIDI and more."

Blackbird Cover - Speedbumpy LinnStrument Surface v2


video upload by Sound Werkshop

"Buy Here [as available]

My latest attempt at making a better play surface for LinnStrument.

Each row is shaped like a long speedbump. They help you instantly feel the center of the row. Easily slide along the top of a bump for pitch bends.

Instead of gaps between notes, I put grooves over the center of the note. Confidently feel when you finger is on targer."

1983 Linn LinnDrum LM2 w/ Original Box

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

Pic of the inside below.

"This was bought brand-new in August of 1983 and acquired from the original owner. It is as close to a time-capsule piece as I’ve ever seen and I’ve had 10 LinnDrum’s in the last 3 1/2 years alone. There are just a few very fine marks on the face (the small flecks in the 2nd photo are just dust) that keep it from truly being ‘mint’ which is pretty wild because the original owner actually used it. These were $2,700 back in 1983, which is over $8,000 in today’s dollars, so it’s not surprising someone took great care of it. It has been meticulously restored and is functioning as well or better than it ever did even back when it was brand-new! The circuit is unmodified to retain it’s original spec and for the fact it is so well-preserved. Another huge bonus is the individual tuning pots for the voices actually function properly and sweep with consistence. A vast majority of these machines have some degree of instability in the tuning pots due to age (DeOxit does not normally fix this issue). Not this one, though. A true collector‘s piece and one you can actually use consistently.

- Full electrolytic recap

- Auxiliary board cleaned and refurbished with battery holder and new rechargeable batteries

- All buttons cleaned and rebuilt

- All 32 faders removed, disassembled, cleaned (and repaired where necessary), lubricated, greased, and rebuilt

- ZIF quick-release sockets added to 7 voices (bass, snare, congas (x2), toms (x2), and clap)

- Factory presets reloaded

This classic piece is essentially ubiquitous with popular music starting from the day it was released. Nearly every major label recording artist and/or band used one of these somewhat extensively (that had hits, anyway). Part of that is due to Roger Linn & Co. dishing them out like tic-tacs in order to promote the machine, but that’s beside the point. The fact of the matter is this machine is all over so many songs, it would be nearly impossible to catalog them all. It’s a who’s who list of household name because it clearly made the impression they’d hoped. And the best part about it is it’s as relevant to today’s scene as it was back then. You can even swap in sounds from your other favorite drum machines to create a truly versatile, desert island instrument!

Most of these are banged up, corroded from battery acid leakage, modified poorly, unrestored, or all of the above. This is the nicest, most-complete LinnDrum available anywhere in the world. Includes original box, sales receipt, user manual, promotional paperwork, and cassette with pre-sets."
