Dave Smith Instruments In The Spotlight With the Prophet-6 and RJ Thompson

You can find the full interview on DSI's website here.

"RJ Thompson has built a name for himself in recent months as one of the UK’s strongest up-and-coming singer-songwriters. His poignant lyrics and deeply-felt songs are set against a colourful (and at times nostalgic) soundscape that goes far beyond modern-day singer-songwriter stereotypes.

RJ’s hard-won success has come through consistence and persistence, having played innumerable grass-roots music venues, pubs, and clubs in his native Northeast England. His breakthrough came when a sound engineer for Live Aid organiser and Ultravox frontman Midge Ure was working at one of RJ’s open mic performances. The engineer liked what he heard and recommended RJ as a support act, leading to more than 30 shows touring the UK and Europe. Support shows with Gabrielle Aplin, Deacon Blue and Jools Holland (including a performance at the Royal Albert Hall) soon followed, as well as several EPs and a live album.

We chatted with RJ about how he’s using the Prophet-6."

Yamaha SY85 Synth Program Data Disks

"1) Afro-Cuban Percussion (Unopened, in original packaging.)
2) Jazz Choir
3) Nashville
These disks are loaded into the SY85 via the disk drive and contain original patches developed by Yamaha. I received them when I bought my SY85, but never used them. Jazz Choir and Nashville have been tested as readable on a computer. I cannot test Afro-Cuban as I don't want to open the packaging. Remember to back-up your current settings to disk before loading these patches as many of the existing patches are overwritten when these disks are loaded. Please see your Owners Manual for more information."
