1960's Stylophone Demonstration


Published on Mar 2, 2014 ChrisLody·72 videos

Line in demo at :40.

"Just a short demonstration of a 1960's Stylophone using the camera audio and then line out audio. These early models have no volume control and a vibrato that sounds more akin to pulse width modulation. Plus they are much bassier via line out than the speaker due to a passive low pass filter over the output. I have it for sale in my Etsy shop here:

Casio MT 600 demo track


Published on Mar 1, 2014 ikworgek·62 videos

"All sounds from the casio.
some reverb and delay.

The MT-600 was a non-programmable home keyboard variant of the HT-700. While not technically a synthesizer (the tones could not be altered and new sounds could not be created), it used the SD synthesis engine and had the same preset patches as the HZ-600 (arranged in a different order). The case of the MT-600 was smaller than the HZ-600, with only 49 mini-keys, but as a home keyboard it did include stereo speakers and auto-accompaniment. The MT-600 included a pitch-bender, which was unusual for home keyboards at the time. Unlike the HZ-600, the pitch bend range was not selectable. Auto-accompaniment used a fixed bass patch, and the "lower tone" sounds of the HZ-600 for chords. Drums were low-resolution 8-bit PCM samples and resembled an expanded Casio SK-5 drumkit. The MT-600 was 3-part mutitimbral for use as a MIDI sound source."

Retr0bright Yellow Key Restoration on a Moog Little Phatty


Published on Mar 1, 2014 Syntegrator·369 videos

"Yellowed plastic is a real problem in any vintage collectible: Dingy yellow-brown parts are unpleasant to behold and severely reduce the appeal of toys, technology and (naturally) our precious and treasured synthesizers. There is a way to get those yellowed parts back to their original color, provided you are ready to mix up some caustic chemicals and hang out in the lab for a few days, which I (of course) did when faced with a chain-smoked Little Phatty keyboard.

Here is a single video (edited from 23 video recordings taken over a 3 day period) in which I apply the Retr0brite process to a severely yellowed synthesizer keybed (and its controller wheels) and get some impressively good results by the end. With the right gear and precautions, it can be done!

For more information be sure to check out the retr0brite.wikispaces.com website - Shouts out to Merlin, Lorne, Tezza and the rest for pioneering the Retr0bright formula and process!"
