SCI Prophet 5 Rev 2 and Sequential Prophet 10 Rev 4 - Rain

"Short impro with both Prophets"

---

This one made me think of Japan's Nightporter driving home for the night.
Richard Barbieri of Japan prominently used a Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 no less.



Update: lyrics added below along with the note above on Japan's Richard Barbieri using the original Sequential Circuits Prophet-5.

Lyrics
Could I ever explain
This feeling of love it just lingers on
The fear in my heart that keeps telling me which way to turn
We'll wander again
Our clothes they are wet
We shy from the rain
Longing to touch all the places we know we can hide
The width of a room that can hold so much pleasure inside
Here am I alone again
A quiet town where life begins
Here am I just wondering
Nightporters go
Nightporters slip away
I'll watch for a sign
And if I should ever again cross your mind
I'll sit in my room and wait until nightlife begins
I'm catching my breath
We'll both brave the weather again
Here am I alone again
A quiet town where life gives in
Here am I just wondering
Nightporters go
Nightporters slip away

Update:

DX5 playing Alphaville "The Jet Set" (Take 2; recorded w/improved sound while streaming live)

video upload by DX5

"Yesterday I've recorded a cover of this song. Tonight I've just played it again on my Live Streaming and found out I am way more happy with the sound quality and balance than the previous version; thus I decided to upload it too. It does also include a few seconds before/after playing. (There is a barely noticeable jump at 00:28 that happened while broadcasting).
When I record an isolated cover, I do usually benefit from my old camera preamps/compressor. But when I am streaming live, I route audio (analogue) from my Pro Tools card output (Focusrite) to an audio card that feeds the streaming software, resulting in less sound make up. Also, audio levels were set different, resulting on this video.
Gear Used: Roland MRS-2 Promars, Access Virus TI Snow (choir wavetable layer triggered from the Emax1) , Roland JX-8P, Emu Emax 1 and Emax II.
Backtrack previously recorded, track by track, by me from scratch in Pro Tools, also including a Roland D-10, JP8000 and Simmons SDS8. All sounds synthesized by me or belonging to my libraries.
Original song composed by Marian Gold / Bernhard Lloyd / Frank Mertens.

"This Mk1 A4 is unique. It has added separate outs (like the Mk2 but 1/8” TRS stereo jacks) per channel, installed by an audio engineer. It also was the prototype for StyleFlip’s A4 overlays and they were installed by them. Finally it has maybe 1000 sounds in it.

It is in excellent shape (no paint issues under the removable overlays) and screen, buttons and encoders are all in great condition. Bonus: comes with a Decksaver (exc), TRS y-cables for the CV outs, along with the original power supply and original box!"

"This is a Paia theremax theremin that was modified by Kaiser instruments. It features an envelope filter and oscillator along with a phaser and delay section. External sound sources can be patched in as well to use the onboard effects. Obviously patching the theremin in leaves you sonically curious for hours on end. Killer unit that is extremely unique."

"Here is an amazing Moog Polymoog 203a. Completely working condition, with the legs, original manual, service manual, and power cord. The only issue I could find cosmetically was the high gain knob cracked on top and it lost the little button at some point. Other than that this thing is pretty awesome condition wise."
