Casio XW-P1 : noodling with a "lo-fi" sound

Published on Oct 14, 2017 Nice and Synths

"This video contains some noise from a Casio XW-P1. It was recorded to PC via a Focusrite Scarlett 18i6. No processing was done to the audio, this is just direct sound from the synthesizer.

The sound is just a hex layer pad type sound, using the XW-P1's "Lo-Fi" DSP effect. Part of this effect is a crude bit-crushing type...thing. I am using that to get all the grungy background noise.

As always, this video doesn't represent what competent music sounds like, or all the possibilities of the synthesizer presented. It is just around 5 minutes of meandering noodlery.

And finally, one day I will get some better lighting so the video doesn't look completely horrible. :)"

"Selmer SM-101 Auto Rhythm drum machine from the 70's.

Working well.

Small things better to mention:

-The light is not flashing.

-The snares / hihats are maybe getting noisy when turning the balance from soft to clear
(but I'm not sure it's an issue, maybe it's sounds like this originally).

- the wood box is a bit weary.

Voltage is 220, plug is european type."

"We have had the Pisound for a while but hadn't got around to testing it until prompted to do so my a discussion on in-thread.sonic-pi.net.

Here we try it with the Code Club 'Musical Round' Frere Jacques project, firstly with just Sonic Pi audio, followed by MIDI sequencing our Mother-32, System-1m and Mutant Drums."
