Mister Rogers - Look and Listen Synth Tutorial

YouTube Uploaded by hallospacegirl on Oct 25, 2011

"Mister Rogers demonstrates the different sounds that can be made with a synthesizer, then sings a song about how grown-ups like to play, too, and that there are a lot of things in this world that are playful if you look and listen."

"You are correct, it was not a full fledged documentary but an episode of a show my
wife, Denise Gallant, started about a year ago called In The Loop - Art & Technology. The discussion was shot live by volunteer community TV members and Denise edited in bits and pieces from material we had or found. I think that is how I found the Emulator Sampler User Forum. We only had an hour to shoot the round-table interview. We needed another hour at least. Alas, this is all a labor of love and without funding we are limited in the scope of the project. We would love to do a real documentary and have a lot of old video that has never seen the light of day.

The Emulator1, Emulator II and Emax were all 8 Bit instruments but each used a different type of 8 Bit Compression to attempt to improve signal to noise, etc.. . They also approached pitch shifting differently. The Emulator II could be over-saturated, kind of like analog tape, and it sounded good. I don't think that was by design. It was necessary to develop a chip to reduce parts and costs and the E Chip was the first attempt. It had its pluses and minuses and we learned from it and it led to the G Chip which was really an incredible piece of technology.

I don't know if other former Emu people are on this forum. I only discovered it myself recently, but I will forward links to some that I think might be interested. Thanks for the feeback!"

micromac stacked

via Ken MacBeth on Facebook

"took this 'snap' this morning of the setting used on the microma prototypes for the 'three shadows' demo/vid that I did earlier in the week so that I can set it up again- This weekend- it's full on work getting the final works done for manufacture! Note the desktop version is now named 'micromac- D' and the rack version shall be 'micromac-R'"

"In case you missed it last time! Personally I like the sound of this demo- there's a feel of JMJ meets Kraftwerk meets Vangelis!...?!" below

three shadows Published on May 16, 2012 by macbethsynthesizers

"As we hit production of the micromac- her's one of the last videos from the prototype units- this video features the desktop version doing baqss lines and the 3U format version doing some strange glide stuff! It's been an interesting experiment- the keyboard controllers are 2 x Korg Prophecies doing the arpegiation thing at different timings! Apart from my own designs featured here- I'd highly recommend 2 x Prophecies as keyboard controllers! I guess all this sound coming from such small units....starts to erase the need for the massive modular...especially if you after this kind of sound! All played live....and yes, the video needs a touch of brightening slash contrast!"
