Demo of the original Roland Promars "Compuphonic" MRS-2. Its excellent sound qualities can not be really simulated by software.
I played the Roland Promars with reverb effects from a Lexicon MPX-500 and delay effects from a Korg SDD-3000.
The Roland Promars is a programmable monophonic analog synth. Basically it's a monophonic version of the Roland Jupiter-4. But on the Promars, you have 2 VCO's per voice, not 1 VCO like on the Jupiter. VCO 2 is always identical to VCO 1 except tuning (same volume, same suboscillator, same waveform).
2 VCOs, 2 suboscillators, 24 dB lowpass filter, non resonant highpass filter, 2 envelopes, noise generator, extremely fast LFO with many waveforms, 8 memory locations to store own sounds and a powerful classic Roland sound makes the Promars a great synthesizer.

Love the early Roland Synth this and JP4, oscillators fat and consistency even in their tone as you play up and down the keys-along with supreme filters. Doesn't sound cheap or plastic like many other synths. What a beast of engineering.

Sounds very much like my Juno 6, only with 2 oscillators that can be detuned and 2 envelopes. Very nice though. Oh the Square flute sound at around 3 mins in is very SH1000. Nice early roland sound. .

+AnalogAudio1 Yeah, but if I had the money I'd buy one just for the looks. Imagine seeing someone play one of these in a concert where the venue is small enough that members of the audience can come on stage and get a photo of one with them standing right next to it. But then it's also the ease with which numerous sounds can be produced with less than 5 seconds on programming and knob manipulation. Man, I'd eat this up if I could afford to buy one.

I want to see the market in vintage synths go into a savage freefall. People are paying megabucks for 40 and 45 year old technology. It can be recreated on newer, better machines for a fraction of the asking price if you want those retro sounds.
@AnalogAudio1
@AnalogAudio1 Год назад
Always the same discussions... the original analogs sound better than "recreations" by software or newer synths. These are the originals. Apart from that, you don't need to spend megabucks for a vintage car to drive, you don't need to pay megabucks for a Rolex to know the time. There will be no "savage freefall", since it's not the same.
@thepanel2935
@thepanel2935 Год назад
@@AnalogAudio1 even Nick Rhodes said he is "all for moving forward", so I think this obsession with vintage Retro sounds will stifle advancement and 'new-ness'. And where are the spare parts for old machines that require repairs due to their age? Or MIDI connectivity? I already know that people appreciate these older products, but I will not participate. I was offered an original two-keyboard Prophet-10 for $2500 Australian ($1500 USD) and I sold my Jupiter 4 for $450 Australian ($300 USD), but this was all back in the mid 1990s when I was in my 20s and flat broke. (I couldn't afford the $2500 for the Prophet-10 and I desperately needed the money I got when selling the JP-4.) I would still choose to use a Rev 4 re-issue of the Prophet-10 than pay large sums for the original, despite what you say. Each to their own. If Behringer products are solidly made and cheaply sold, they will assist greatly, especially with re-makes of classic pieces of kit like the Linn Drum and DMX drum machine. The only problem is, Behringer will announce a budget re-make of classic items, but three years later, there is _still_ no sign of those things...
