Yamaha TX81z - Sound demo with 80's tracks

Published on Apr 26, 2018 tiergrinder

"Yamaha TX81z is a 4-operator FM synthesizer from 1987.

TX81z was released after DX7's success as an cheaper alternative to it's bigger brothers DX7, TX7 and TX816. With just 4 operators it's not quite as punchy and expressive than 6 operator DX7, but it's still capable to do some really lovely sounds that are useful even today. I use it's sounds in retrowave.

In this short demo I focus on the sounds that I use the most myself. Electric piano, basses and percussion sounds. I threw this together to showcase the nature and timbre of the synth. Sound levels are in favour what ever is demonstrated at the moment.
Hope you enjoy :)"

Roland Jupiter 8 "Inside this incredible machine!!" Published on Jun 1, 2016 synthartist69

"Inside the Jupiter 8. Music performed on the Jupiter 8, no effects added."

via this auction

"Serial #181894. This Jupiter 8 is the more dependable 14bit model. It tunes up, plays and sounds like a dream! Please view my video below [above] which shows the inside and outside of this Jupiter 8 and has a music track I created from this synthesizer in the background. I have owned it about 3 years. It has Encore midi installed by Switched On electronics in Austin, Texas. I have used the midi in a very limited role so I do not know much about it as I am not much of a midi guy. Power supply was recapped by Switched On as part of a preventive maintenance. A new lithium battery has been installed. Everything works properly. Sliders work smoothly. Buttons respond as they should. Keys work as they should. I have made a ton of Youtube videos with this Jupiter 8 if you want to check those out just look up Synthartist69 Jupiter 8 [plenty posted here on MATRIXSYNTH]. Cosmetically it is in great shape other than wear and touch up on the ROLAND logo on the back. I still play this synthesizer at least two to three times a week in my SMOKE FREE home. Why am I selling? I am raising cash to build a new home. I have been selling on Ebay since 2001 and have 100% feedback there as well if you would like to check that out. This Jupiter 8 is the real deal, not some synth being sold by someone who doesn't even know how to play it or how it works. It is my favorite analog ever created by far and it hurts to sell it."
