Yamaha | Manuele Montesanti | YC88 and Reface CS performance

video upload by Yamaha Synths Official

"Keyboard player and producer Manuele Montesanti performs two tracks from his DriftLab project using the Yamaha YC88 and Reface CS.

The performance features the tracks 'Bump' and 'Bleep', combining expressive keyboard playing with electronic textures and live performance energy.

For this setup, the Yamaha YC88 was also used as the audio interface for the laptop-based rig, while the Reface CS sound used in the performance was loaded via the Yamaha Soundmondo app before the show."

The Classic 80s Sound of a-ha - Train of Thought | Vintage Synth Recreation

video upload by RetroSound

"In this new video I recreate the sound of “Train of Thought” by a-ha from the album Hunting High and Low. Written by Pål Waaktaar, this track is one of the standout examples of 1980s synth-pop production, combining melodic hooks, layered textures, and distinctive Scandinavian pop atmosphere.

For this vintage synth recreation I focused on capturing the character, tone, and arrangement of the original recording using classic hardware synthesizers and samplers. My setup includes the Yamaha DX7 II FD and the Roland Juno-106 for the main synth parts and signature textures.

The bass, flute sound (Fairlight) and selected drum sounds were created with the E-mu Emulator II. I also used the PPG Wave 2.2 for additional digital bass layers, digital textures, and atmospheric effects.

My goal was to explore how the classic a-ha sound was built — from analog warmth and FM synthesis to early digital sampling and wavetable synthesis.

If you enjoy vintage synthesizers, 80s synth-pop, classic a-ha productions, and deep dives into iconic keyboard sounds, this recreation is for you."

FM synthesis using only samples - Yamaha EX5

video upload by Floyd Steinberg

"Until the Waldorf Quantum and Iridium came along, the Yamaha EX5 was the only hardware synthesizer that could frequency modulate samples with other samples. In this video, I use this to turn a sample of my own voice into a somewhat synth-brassy sounding patch using a sine wave sample as a modulator.

00:00 intro
00:09 hello, what's this?

GreyScale-HyperPulse #duos #cs10 | Phase5

video upload by plantssystem

"GreyScale releases 'HyperPulse' — a raw pulse forged by Duos and the Yamaha CS‑10.
Minimal voltage shifts collide with tight rhythmic logic, creating a pulse that keeps mutating in real time. A single line of energy, pushed into overdrive."

GreyScale - Phase5 "The boundary where everything loses its color.

The GreyScale project, Chapter 5 (Phase 5), has finally begun.

'GreyScale - Phase 5'

A soundscape constructed more deeply and meticulously through the previous phases.

We have poured the emotions that are losing their form, and the truth that lies beyond, into the sound. We were able to reach Phase 5 thanks to all of you who always listen.

Please enjoy the expansive world of sound that fills every corner, using headphones or speakers.
