Switched on Debussy & Bach on the Roland MC-202 & Roland System 100m.
video uploads by funkpirateradioscene
1. MC-202 does Switched on Bach
2. Debussy - Rêverie sequenced by Roland MC-202
3. Roland MC-202 Factory sequence data: Debussy - Snow is Dancing
"The Roland MC-202 MicroComposer originally came with a data cassette to demonstrate its capabilities as a sequencer. Since it could not retain memoy after power off, sequences had to be saved and loaded via audio inputs on the back of the machine. The sequences had one channel for the internal synth, and one channel to drive an external synth.
Here the MC-202 plays while also sequencing a Roland System 100m. Reverb and delay added in Ableton Live.
The 5 sequences from the original cassette were:
1. Invention Vol.1 – J. S. Bach
2. Invention Vol.2 – J. S. Bach
3. Dream – C. A. Debussy
4. Prelude – J. S. Bach
5. Snow Is Dancing – C. A. Debussy"
DeaR Sun 🖤 (Moog Minitaur / Waldorf Streichfett / Roland S1 / Korg Volca Beats / Novation Mininova)
video upload by 2-Minute Warning
"This is one of my most personal jams, hope you'll enjoy it 🖤
The NDLR is sequencing with:
Track 1: the Moog Minitaur (BASS)
Track 2: the Waldorf Streichfett (STRINGS)
Track 3: the Waldorf Streichfett (PLUCKS)
Track 4: the Roland S1 (ARP)
The DRUMS are coming from the Korg Volca Beats and the LEAD is being played in real-time on the Novation Mininova.
A couple of tricks I used here:
The Waldorf Streichfett has 2 engines (STRINGS + SOLO), which can be played independently if needed. This is what I did here, where Track 3 of the NDLR is sequencing the SOLO engine, and Track 2 the STRINGS engine.
I'm using one of the NDLR's LFO (Random wave) to modulate (by sending CC) the TONE parameter of the Waldorf Streichfett SOLO engine.
I've used a second LFO on the NDLR to modulate of the parameter the octave parameter of Track 1 (called the DRONE track on the NDLR) which is sequencing the Minitaur, hence playing from time to time a note with an octave higher 😉"

Roland SD-35 + SC-88VL | Monkey Island MIDI Disk Playback ( Sony PCM-M10 audio capture )
video upload by Avrilcadabra
"Hi everyone,
Did you ever serve under #generalmidi #Roland This is a Roland SD-35 Sound Canvas, which is a 3.5 inch GM\GS midi player. It can record also but I have not tried that.
The midi out is connected to the midi in of the SC-88vl so we are hearing its sounds.
If you have a SD-35 and wondering why you get NOP errors when trying to listening to a midi file. Try resaving the file as Format 0, make sure the tick rate is something normal like 240 or 480 and most importantly if theres no time signature event you have to add one, I use the software call Sekaiju to do this. It is windows only.
Filmed on a Sony ZV-e10 camera in 4K with a vintage Japanese made Soligor 35mm sawblade lens wide open, which gives the vintage glow.
Audio recorded on a Sony PCM-M10 which was placed in my studio were my head would be when mixing, JBL 305 monitors and a KRK sub.
Music used to demonstrate this vintage gear is The Secret of Monkey Island, by Micheal Land, property of Lucas Arts."
This Rare 90s FX unit turns anything into surreal ambience
video upload by Thought-Forms
"Nobody talks about the Roland RSP-550, but they should. It rivals the Ensoniq DP/4, slaps the Alesis Quadraverb around, and can be had for under $400. Let me show you why I love this 1U rack mount effects unit from 1991...the perfect dedicated FX unit to run synths & sound effects through. Dream like delays, phasers, and modulated effects"

Live Ambient :: Soma Cosmos :: Oberheim OB-X8 :: Roland JX-8P :: Linnstrument
video upload by Harry van Mierloo
"Layered ambient recording of the Oberheim OB-X8 playing together with the Roland JX-8P, through the wonderful Soma Cosmos.
The JX-8P is playing one of my favourite homemade pad-patches, and the OB-X8 is live played on the Linnstrument and tweaked in order to feed various sounds on the fly into the Cosmos. The filter of the Oberheim is controlled with my foot using an expression pedal. The result is a highly layered ambient track full of unpredictable – and sometimes hard to keep within control – harmonics.
Pepper & Salt from Strymon BigSky, enjoy!"
TR-808 Shootout // Can they live up to the LEGEND??
video upload by Starsky Carr
"The legendary Roland TR80*8 up against the *Roland TR-8S and the Behringer RD-8 Looking only at the sounds - or listening to them! - do they come anywhere close?
The TR-8S uses Roland's ACB technology, which is the same as the TR-8, Roland Cloud plugins and the Boutique TR-08 - so this has you covered for all of those. I'm using the RD-8 Mk2 - you cna tell because its got the black buttons, Mk1 had white.
I've gone through all the sounds (forgot the maracas in the demo bit) and showed how they differ. Taking into consideration no 2 808s will be identical I think they both stand up very well to the orginal TR808.
But if you want the exact sounds...

First of August (OXI ONE MkII, opsix, multi/poly, wavestate)
video upload by Alec Sea
"First of August was performed live using the Oxi One MkII sequencer, Korg opsix, multi/poly and wavestate synthesizers and Roland TR-6S drum machine. The FM e-piano from opsix is running into the Line 6 HX ONE and Meris Mercury X in series for a lovely wash of reverb. The TR-6S is running into the UAFX Golden in Percussion Plate mode. Multi/poly is using the built in effects. Wavestate is a dry bass sound. There is no post-processing."

Roland JX-8P Analog Synth Demo - Best 80s Presets (by Eric Persing who did D-50 sounds)
video upload by Dave Daves
"Playing chord progressions to show off my favorite JX-8P Preset patches - Eric Persing just began programming presets for Roland synths, this for the JX-8P was his very first of perhaps the most illustrious patch-programming career; he's most famous for the Roland D-50 sounds, especially #1 Fantasia which found its way into the GM General MIDI standard patch map (if you don't know it by name, you'll still recognize it), he did all the JV- and XV- later ROMplers too and I think XV-5080 may have been his last. I was raised to think that using presets without any editing is just lazy... but with the JX-8P they just sound perfect to my ears."

Roland Boutique JD-08 | No talking demo, sounds only | JD-800 reborn!
video upload by ADL-MusicLab
"Hello, everyone! Here's to you my 'NO TALKING DEMO' of the amazing Roland Boutique JD-08.
The JD-08 is the authentic recreation of the Roland JD-800 synthesizer in a modern and portable instrument.
With its retro workflow, evocative sounds, and powerful effects, the JD-800 was a favorite for top electronic music producers through the ’90s and beyond. Combining the original JD-800 waveforms with advanced modeling techniques, the JD-08 delivers the exquisite hands-on sound design of the original, along with hugely expanded polyphony, a two-part polyphonic sequencer, and other modern updates.
The JD-08 includes 64 presets from the original hardware and perfectly recreates the four-tone structure, 108 waveforms, and unique two-part multi-effects that are at the core of the JD-800’s intricate, evolving sound.
And there is so much more! The JD-08 has new patches plus 256 memory locations that let you dive deep into the huge array of controls to create new sounds for your music. And with expanded polyphony and two-part multitimbral capability, there’s even more room to stretch out your sonic ideas.
In this demo I will just let you hear what Roland have made for this little synth simply by scrolling and playing some beautiful factory presets."

"This workhorse of a synth has been with us from the 80's and well beyond! From Michael Jackson to Gary Numan this iconic synth has been on countless records and sounded excellent throughout all of them. This particular D-50 has a couple screws missing on the bottom cover, but aside from that is in very good condition. The cmos battery has been replaced, and the original back light is still working great!"
