via Frederic

Update via the comments:
REgardging the synth in the opening shot above the mellotron.
"The synth is a PPG monosynth - a 1002 or 1020 I think. There was a post on this blog about it a few months ago.

Lots more vintage TD on Youtube, it all seems to be from the same German TV program. Just search for 'Tangerine Dream Signale'."

Synthi VCS3 Sample

Title link takes you to a sample of the Synthi VCS3 by REwire on the VSE fourm. Details saved here for when the thread goes into limbo:

"My Synthi VCS3 has been hard to play in tune since I got it but recently I did an overhaul on cleaning, lubing and internal pot adjusting it and wow, suddenly it all came togther in tune - all 3 oscillators holding pitch together.

Unlike my "Bit By Bit" tune with a modular patch that allowed 5 oscs to be panned separately, these three are crammed together into the same filter and mono output. The effect is a war of oscs, beating against each other for supremacy.

This is a one minute solo piece with first one osc, then two, then three all playing the same thing: 840K mp3

When VA's can do this I'll submit."

mp3 saved here for posterity.
