Yamaha SPX2000 Demo With Synths

Published on Nov 25, 2016 insanic4

"Here is a demo of the Yamaha SPX2000 effect processor in combination with synthesizer sounds. The SPX2000 is a very well build (and relatively heavy) hardware effect processor which can run one effect at a time (but also combination effects). It has full software control with the included software editor that connects over USB (I'm running it under Win8 64bit). Every parameter of every effect program can be controlled using MIDI controllers so you can add an extra layer of modulation using MIDI LFOs."

voltage

voltage is a new synthesizer engine with electrifying results, using multiple interconnected oscillators. it can produce a wide range of sounds, from basses to organs to pads and more. make sure to checkout the new voltage synth.

arpeggio

OP-1 has been updated with arpeggio, a new arpeggiator sequencer, that you can
use both with drums, synths and of course samples. it works great for basslines and
lead sounds.
