Isobutane - Pixelizing Your Ears (2006)

video upload by Isobutane

"There were times when my only piece of equipment was the Yamaha RM1x. While going through some old floppy discs I’ve came across some really old tracks from around 2005-2007. I was surprised how playful and full of energy these are. Technically and soundwise they are all pretty funky but I was really stunned by the liveliness of these old projects. So I’m like…yeah let’s share em. Maybe some people will even remember some of these from the past live shows. Shees that was ages ago… Ok, let’s go. 7/7

This is called Pixelizing your ears and it was made in 2006.

This one is called Fogfields and it was made in 2006. Back in the day, I used to play this one live a lot. The beat is an Aphex Twin ripoff...well kind of. The kick and zap sounds are taken directly from a track called Isoprophlex and are included within the RM1x sound bank. He mentioned Yamaha sampling these sounds for this machine in one of his interviews. Enjoy."

Found some old RM1x projects, this is "Orangetime" from 2007.

This was called Orangetime and it was included on my album I'm you but you're still more that came out in 2007 on @4mg_records . Limited edition 100 copies, CD. It's still out there somewhere."

Yamaha RM1x Korg Kaossilator drama - crying synth

video upload by rm1xapm

"Title 'sad'. Made with Yamaha RM1x, PSR 4600, SY 35, Korg Microsampler, Korg Kaossilator."

Yamaha Rm1x electro house polyrhythm froschkonzert

video upload by rm1xapm

"Track: Froschkonzert. For this 1999 style electronic house track I took the Yamaha Rm1x out of my setup - back to the roots with nothing else but the blue box and a midi controller/keyboard (must have because of the velocity control). You hear internal sounds only with a bit of multi-compression in post. I used a lot of the internal effects and filters to shape the sounds. For the polyrhythm stuff I used the on board midi delay with some timing offset. My son (7 years) was helping with some nice artwork for this video."

Yamaha Rm1x breakfast jam easy listening

video upload by rm1xapm

"A live jam recorded in the morning right after having breakfast. With this jam i finally could integrate the choir patches of the Rm1x in useful way. I used the LFO to add movement on the pitch and reduced the attack as well. This adds more life to it. It works quite nice together with the flute patch of the PSR 4600 you can hear all the time in background and playing the main voice later. For the SY35 I simply used the preset patch 'Water'. Grab a coffee and enjoy!"

Yamaha Rm1x dreamy house beat - sky and clouds

video upload by rm1xapm

"In this jam I am using sounds from the Yamaha Rm1x of course, the PSR 4600 (is running through a 20 year old Behringer Virualizer FX unit for some reverb) and the SY35 for the background synth sound. Last but not least the Korg Kaossilator Mini makes some noise. You can hear the Rm1x right at the beginning playing the portamento synth, IMO it fits perfectly with the FM sounds of the PSR4600, its a great combo. Finally the main mix is compressed to tighten it up. Enjoy."

Midi Sync Test (modular synth to a MIDI sequencer)

video upload by John L Rice

"Here's another blast from the past, a 2009 video I deleted because of endless conflicts with the YouTube algorithms . . . we'll see what happens now in 2022!

I was simply using some preset demo patterns on a Yamaha RM1X sequencer and sending the MIDI out to a Moon 553 MIDI to Clock module to sync up Synthesizers.com Q960 and Moon 569 sequencers to add some additional sequenced patterns over the top of the RM1X demo sequences. I was also using a Synthesis Technology MOTM-730 clock divider in some (I've forgotten what the patch was exactly) and over course many other MOTM and DotCom modules to create the two voices. If you listen close, I didn't manage to get one of the sequencers to line up in the correct place always be it worked well enough for this test. ;-)

Thanks for watching! 🙏

live performance on yamaha rm1x a summer house dance track

video upload by rm1xapm

"A summer vacation dance track. It wasn't planned. I was jamming on the rm1x and did some experiments using the Kaossilator and a gate on the output of an old Yamaha PSR4600 to create some nice ryhtm patterns - selected Patch '42 Horn' and it just happened. :) The blips and plings are from the SY35, drums and bassline from the rm1x directly. Hope you like it."

Yamaha QX5-FD from 1988 | The last QX sequencer

video upload by Espen Kraft

"The Yamaha QX5-FD from 1988. The last sequencer in the QX lineup from Yamaha. Unlike the other models that came before it, this has a slightly different design. Made to compete with the Roland MC-500 first and foremost.
Yamaha would continue with the QY-line, as well as the RS7000 and RM1X that were more like groove boxes.
Now, with this quite odd late 80s release from Yamaha I can truly say my collection of QX sequencers are complete. :)
Many thanks to the donor!"

Drifty Analog Pack 1 for DSI Sequential Prophet Rev2. Sound Demo of 31 Custom Programs. No Talking.

video upload by Just Hardware.

""Drifty Analog Pack 1" for DSI Sequential Prophet Rev2, 8 or 16 voice.
You get 31 custom programs with all sequences shown, except for what is shown in the 2 intro tracks. The 2 beginning intro tracks show the Rev2, with my soundset, in a mix with other instruments for demo purposes, and those other instrument sounds are not included. Drum sample sounds are not included.

Except for the intro, all audio you hear is coming directly from the Rev2, with no external effects. "MW" in the program name means that the mod wheel is enabled for extra modulation.

This pack takes advantage of the flexibility of the Prophet Rev2, modulating various parameters, to create the drifting sounds you hear. Some programs sound similar to each other, but vary in texture or the amount that the parameters will drift. With so many choices, finding a sound for your next track is easy!

Drifty Analog Pack 1 is easy to import into the Rev2, using MIDI sysex transfer software that is compatible with .syx files, like MIDI-OX or SysEx Librarian. You can use the USB port or the MIDI In port of the Rev2 for sysex transfers.

Italo Disco Synthwave with Rm1x and Prophet Rev2. Over 90% Rm1x Internal Sounds. "M/S/H- Italo 37".
video upload by Just Hardware.

"A fusion of Synthwave and Italo Disco with a energetic Dance rhythm. My Sequential Prophet Rev2 does the FM-style bells at the intro and is also used on MIDI track 9. Everything else (over 90%) is just the internal sounds and effects of the Yamaha Rm1x, without any external processing."
