organfairy's oldest surviving cover

Published on Dec 2, 2013 organfairy·400 videos

"This is not a very good cover of "Video killed the radio star" by the Buggles. But it gives an idea on how I was playing in 1995. The way this botch job was done is that I recorded the drum machine and bass on a tape recorder. Then I transferred this recording to another tape recorder (actually the one I use in this video - Beocord 2000 de luxe) while mixing in some more sound. Then I transferred this recording back to the first tape recorder again and continued in this fashion untill I had build up the arrangement. Unfortunately this method adds another layer of noise for every transfer - we were back in the analog days - and that can be heard in the beginning.

The instruments I used was: Casio SA-1 and SA-3 toy keyboards, Bontempi KS-3400 ditto, Boss OC-2 octaver, Roland CR-1000 drum machine and SH-2000 synthesizer (at that time my only profesional instruments) and Kawai MS-20 toy-but-not-so-much-as-the-before-mentio­ned keyboard.

There is a little doubt whether this is actually my oldest surviving cover. I also did "Waiting for another chance" by Endgames the same weekend. But I'm not sure which one I did first. My oldest cover doesn't exist anymore. I remember doing 'Kissing in the back row of the movies' on a Philips N4407 as a multiplay project. But I must have erased that since I couldn't find it anywhere."

Ensoniq VFX repair session

Published on Dec 1, 2013 MiK-Music·56 videos

Haven't seen a MiK-Music repair video in some time.  It's great to see one again.

"Due to the nice positive feedback on the Poly 61 repair session video [posted here], i decided to try something new. Pulled this Ensoniq VFX from the bay and decided i will just let the camera run and comment what i'm doing. Nothing was prepared, no educational intention behind it, i just let you look over my shoulder when i fix a synth i don't know.

I never touched a VFX before, i have an EPS and just wanted another inductive poly pressure keyboard, so i bought this thing without even knowing how it sounds. The more important reason for the purchase was "something to repair", i was in the mood for it :) But i like the final result, this thing sounds really nice.

I thought this video might get more interesting as we're talking about debugging and fixing a machine without having any schematics at all, there simply are no usable documents for the 68000 based Ensoniq machines. But at the end, the defect was quite small - in fact i don't really know what the problem was. But maybe you can get some inspiration anyway.

If you like it, i might do it this way more often, more interesting things might happen in other repair sessions and i didn't spent too much in making the video pretty, so not that much additional effort."
