Casio VL-1 (1979) / Ambient - Drone Version

Published on Jan 10, 2019 Fahmi M.

"Ambient / drone sound experiment used only Casio VL-1 (1979, first commercial digital synthesizer) as sound source.
.
The VL-1 was the first instrument of Casio's VL-Tone product line, and is sometimes referred to as the VL-Tone. It combined a calculator, a monophonic synthesizer, and sequencer."

You might be wondering how he got the VL-1 to sound like this. The answer is reverb & "PaulStretch", and "extreme sound stretching algorithm" from Paul Nasca aka Nasca Octavian.

"This algorithm is designed to stretch the sound by a very large amount while preserving the subjective quality. For example using this algorithm it is possible to stretch 5 minutes of sound to 1 hour. The best results are on orchestral/choir audio inputs."

The Ohminator Synthesizer + 8-Step Sequencer

"This is the 8-step sequencer in combination with the Ohminator synthesizer"

via hackster.io

"This project is a fully analog electronic keyboard synthesizer similar to the type that were very popular in the 1970s. Our synthesizer has a VCO, ADSR, and equalizer just like a commercially available keyboard. The VCO synthesizes our audio waveform and can be switched between generating a square or triangle wave. The keyboard that controls our VCO has two octaves of keys, and we have an octave switch that shifts the signal up an octave giving us a total range of three octaves. The ADSR generates an envelope that then gets applied to the VCO output. This signal then goes through the equalizer which modifies the frequency response of our system. The output of the equalizer feeds an integrated amplifier that drives a speaker and makes the sweet analog tones of our synthesizer audible.
