CASIO CZ-1 | Chapter ONE: 7 Factory Patches

Published on Nov 29, 2019 Alba Ecstasy

"BLACK FRIDAY DISCOUNTS on #PATCHES 👉https://www.albaecstasy.ro

Spoiler alert! Don't expect a synth-pop-vintage-medley-hits-whatever-demo! Only a demo of some sounds I could use in my future #ambient tracks!

So: I got this piece of vintage gear. #CasioCZ1
I underestimated it in the past. A lot!
Now, there are three days since I have it and has become the center piece of my studio!
Sounds warm, deep, fat and the lower register is immersing your soul! And I even like the noise comes out of it! It sends me back to the 80's, in a moment!

Patches I played in Operation Memory mode (tone mix & key split): B5, C5-C8, F1, G8.
I added reverb from the Eventide Blackhole plugin.

Roland JUPITER-Xm - (Firmware Ver.1.03) - Outdoor DEMO "Warmin' up"

Published on Nov 28, 2019 gattobus

"The new Roland JUPITER-Xm (FW ver.1.03) has an internal sensor measuring the temperature of the internal circuitry, simulating the oscillators drift like real analog synthesizers. It takes less than 10 minutes tu fully warm up... The result is an alive, warm and three-dimensional sound.
You can also adjust the temperature manually, change the warm up time. and keep your favourite initial temperature if you set the aging parameter to 'FIXED'.

This performance was played in real time and recorded outdoor.
Jupiter-Xm (battery operated) recorded straight to Roland R-07 digital pocket recorder.

I used 5 parts in total: a JUNO-106 emulation, two JUPITER-8 parts, an SH-101 and a Drum Part.
Everything from this little beast...
I think, from now on, Jupiter-Xm is my favourite Synthesizer!!! :D"
