Moog Taurus analog bass synthesizer pedals from the year
3 presets: Taurus, Bass, Tuba
1 variable and full programmed sound
The Taurus 1 use linear VCOs. The Minimoog and the later Taurus 2 and 3 use exponential VCOs. Linear VCOs are the secret for the stable bass sound of the Taurus 1.

I used the Roland M-VS-1 for the Mellotron (choir, strings) and synth sounds.

CASIOmoog - How bring you the deep Moog Bass sound in a cheap Casio CZ-101 synthesizer?

supported by UVI: http://bit.ly/retrosound-uvi​

Synthesizer Sound Tutorial (CASIO CZ Synthesizer Series)
I want to show how can bring expensive sounds in cheap synths.
It`s all about good sound programming. The deep Moog Bass sound is one of the most iconic sounds in history of synthesizers. Sure is the Casio CZ no Moog. But you can create also on cheap and underrated synths useful sounds with soul. Try it.

The sound chart can you find at the end of the video.
The patch feature 2 different moog bass sounds (2 lines)
You can play one sound (1+1) or both sounds in combination. (line1+2)

No external fx, compression or eq used. The pure sound.

"Back in 1984" show the spirit of the mid 80s. The music that influenced me the most. I heard the music of Human League, Depeche Mode, Ultravox, Frankie Goes To Hollywood and others from the forbidden westgerman radio stations. I dreamed naive dreams as a child who lived behind the iron curtain. All these beautiful machines. Out of reach for me.
But sometimes everything comes at the right time.
