"The KORG MS-20, released in 1978, is a monophonic, semi-modular analog synth known for its gritty sound, dual VCOs and filters, and flexible patch panel. Part of the MS series, it featured two envelope generators and could process external audio, making it a favorite for sound design. Though discontinued in 1983, its popularity resurged in the late '90s, leading to reissues like the MS-20 mini and MS-20 FS. Its raw tone and hands-on modulation helped define KORG's legacy in analog innovation."

Praise from BandCamp (Alan R Pearlman Foundation and Projekt Records )
"A tribute to the creator of my favorite music instruments. I Like the sound of the ARPs in classical electronic albums. Great record with many great contributions!"
"No favourite track, just indulging in the sonic wash of this amazing album. Just wonderful."
"...what an AMAZING collection!! ..."
"A ritual offering—ARP as oracle, muse, and monument. The machine has a soul. And here, it sings."
"It's hard to pick a favorite track off of this compilation... Lots of groovy music by a lot of artists.I had never heard of, but there are a few artists.I am familiar with. this is pretty groovy stuff... "
"Awesome tribute and collection. Mr. Roach has somehow found time to be an archivist. would love a second volume. get this as both sampler and tribute..."

"This is my rendition of the classic "The Water is Wide," performed and recorded in my studio in one take, with no overdubs.
This song has meant a lot to me over my life. I remember the first time I heard this song was in the third grade. We were learning it and singing in my after-school choir (Kairos, on offshoot of the Crowden School). It was the late 90s in Berkeley, California. It was one of the first moments in my life that I can remember being deeply touched by music. I am forever grateful for that experience, as it was one that propelled me into a life in music. I hope you enjoy my version of this timeless song. 💙

"This piece was created using the @teenageengineering OP-1 field, @MengQiMusic Wingie2, @SequentialLLC Prophet-10, and piano. It features piano performances layered over randomly repeating glockenspiel samples enhanced by resonant tones from the Wingie, creating a delicate ambient atmosphere.
On the OP-1 field, glockenspiel sounds are sampled and sequenced using the ENDLESS sequencer. The output is routed through the Wingie2, which adds resonance and harmonic richness.
The @YamahaSynthsOfficial CP-88 piano continuously plays a repeating chord progression, providing a stable foundation for the piece.
The Prophet-10 performs soft synth tones with a slow attack, processed through the @strymon blueSky for reverb, adding depth and texture to the overall sound."

A journey into integrating the 1010music bento into a vintage synthesizer studio is embarked upon. The seamless blending of modern sampling and sequencing capabilities with classic analog warmth is explored.
After familiarising myself with my new toy from 1010music last week, the next step was to integrate it into my existing setup in a meaningful way. Bento takes over the work of the drummachine (LM1 samples), the control and recording of the Juno-106 and Casio CZ-101. I deliberately chose not to use a PC, I let Bento do the most things. Even the processing and effects.
Interested?
❤️ I have the 1010music bento in my Thomann shop: https://thmn.to/thocf/h9izhzc4wh

"Luke Brennan, MD at myVolts giving a demonstration of how you can daisychain multiple synthesizers, from a single USB power source.
With a background in power adapters, myVolts have developed a range of solutions so you can power your synths, pedals, AV gear and more with USB. You can even power items that were previously powered by batteries. Not only that, but they have created solutions that allow you to do that without the buzz and humm usually associated with USB power.
In this video, he talks of how Step Up, a USB-C solution. With our 'Power My Gear' free webtool, you can plan out your USB power setup easily.
