Synthesizer Performance - mik300z - voyager

Another great song ( and video ) by mik300z

voyager



Text from the video :
  • A track I put together a few months back. Wasn't quite happy at the time, but I quite like it now, tweaked it a little bit and put together a video using old footage, so excuse the usual "he's not playing it" parts! Also threw in my cd front and back cover which I hope to have finished soon. Been spending very little time in the studio this summer (too hot!) Some of the patches are from the CS80v I was experimenting with with . Thanks again to all you people who subscribe ,support and inspire my youtube channel! :)

Sound Synthesis - Ensoniq ESQ-1

This video shows how easy is to program an Ensoniq ESQ-1 . This synthesizer only have one slider and two buttons to modify all the sound parameters. On the right side of the front panel there is the synth schema and every part of the synth has a button to access to his menu. The screen has ten buttons surrounding it to select all the parameters of that page, select one and changes the value with the slider ( or the up/down buttons). There are not hidden menus or double push buttons, all parameters are present in one screen. Maybe this procedure seems a bit complicated but it's just my explanation, believe me it's very easy ( I have one of this ) even despite this is a very complex synth ( 3osc, 3lfos, 4env ... )

Text from the video :
  • Reprogramming the 1st preset-piano on the Ensoniq ESQ-1 into something more appropriate. The ESQ-1 is certainly on of the easiest synths to program despite its' lack of dedicated knobs.

Synthesizer Performance - Mik300z - Sundog

I've already posted here other mik300z performances , but this one is special, because while the other ones were covers of "synth classics", this one is an original composition. Very 80s on the sound and feeling and also a catchy song.

Sundog



Text from the video :
  • A 3 minute pop song which I wanted to do mainly to see how well I could compose and produce it . A kind of "feel good" instrumental, all studio work , no software or computers in sight lol! I really would appreciate honest/critical comments on this ,cheers.

"The chase" club version from midnight express



Text from the video :
  • Thanks to everyone for their interest in my version of Giorgio Moroder's classic disco piece. Thanks to youtube it has been played in nightclubs in germany , Uk, Ireland and USA.
    Of course, nothing beats the original!

    I am trying to get permission for an official release of it so I can re-work it and improve it.
