Found the record in a cutout bin and bought it based on the cover and what was written on the back. This is the track that I listened to and remember. Starting at 04:12 now reminds me of Steve Roach, although I think Larry Fast was first.
Hi :) ! please tell me how can you have this incredible bass at 30 sec .. I have one since 5 yeas I'm so sad I don't even close of this sound, i bought it because I saw your video, please can you sell me your patch ?? HELP :,(
Nice! I have one for years. You have to be creative to overcome its limitations - but that is exactly what I like about it. With some clever arranging and effects (in a DAW) this Portasound can turn into an 80's beast. I guess it won't be long before this machine will get more sought after...
I bought mine about 3 years ago for £25 then saw another about a year ago for £35 so thought hey why not! In the meantime someone had obviously messaged the seller as I got a message saying they had changed their mind and was keeping it, fair enough but.....a few days later it turned up advertised at £300! lol. I think they are 'rare' not because they are out of the box amazing, as you say, they need coaxing! but not many were made and survived, so here in the UK it's harder to find a good one but no real high monetary value, more unique, than rare. : )
It's an asian, japan-model, that needs 100V. In europe we got 230V. The PSU inside V2 is for 100V. there's no manual switch 100-230V, or automatic switch, like newer equipemnt.
H.. H..... HOW?! How on earth did you make it sound so amazing awesome?! I love my YS200 and I just bought a brain dead YS100 as a winter project to try to save it. I know, like 12 years later, still mesmerized. Do you remember how you made the whooshing sweeping noises that dives down? Used Pitchbend or how? That sound in the end fluttering LFO modwheel variabled noise, how do you achieve that?
Beautiful synth and I could buy one, but I hesitate, because I read the comments and everyone says it's difficult to program good sounds, so I don't know, I'm no expert...
Can a dx21 sound any close to this? This is amazing. Just got a dx21 for quite cheap and now i've seen a dx11 quite cheap too but not planning to buy it...
On paper the DX11 (1988) is way better than the DX21 (1985). You get multitimbrality, better keybed with both velocity and aftertouch. I would flip the DX21 for the DX11. I have a V50 (a DX11 x 2 plus extra features).
@@patsonmusic thanks, i see. I'll keep the dx21 for now since it was very cheap and the sound possibilities from it are enough for me but i'll keep an eye on the local classifieds in case i find something at a reasonable price
@@jingerroot Same polyphony in both, but I believe the better keybed with afterthouch is well worth the extra money. My V50 has double polyphony, 16 voices and the keybed is really nice.
@@patsonmusic Very nice!! I like the kind of distortion and the texture it provides. I dont think this character can be achieved in today's digital synths despite having much more features. I was surprised to find mine that cheap on reverb given the prices this vintage keyboards are going now. I guess it all depend on how cheap you ger them

Hi Doctor, I am amazed by your work! I have nice memories from using this keyboard in 1990 and recording overdubs on double cassette boombox. I just bought one a few days ago. I love simplicity and quick programming for new ideas. I'm interested how you eq these sounds? Do you use any denoiser to remove analog hiss? I use Audacity editor to remove hiss on every track. Great job, man, I'm impressed and inspired! Here is my revording from 1991, I had to overdub drums because they end up to low in volume. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dtPK38-gc68.html
Thanks for the demo! I still have this beast....I've checked your updated hardware images, with the opened WaveState...there's barely ANY electronics in that baby, despite the complexity, while the Yammy is full of IC:s, which is a good thing. I feel a bit disappointed that they used Raspberry Pi in the WaveState, that costs like 50 USD, I hoped for dedicated Korg circuits and so on...It seems that as long as you have tons of IC:s in a synth it creates a "sound magic", with more pleasant sounds... Great work, Dr! 🙂
absolut geil, das ist ein stil, der mich anspricht. so ähnlich klingt die musik, wenn ich da liege und ich sie plötzlich in meinem kopf höre... welchen synthesizer hast du für die fläche benutzt?
