Ensoniq SQ-80 + ARP Odyssey III

[soundmanhaven1]

yes it does remind of daf i forgot about it it been so long since i last heard it but this one really cool love it full stop :)

[ColaberMilk]

The bassline Reminds me of Der Mussolini by D.A.F., very Neu deutsche Welle

[marsupialmicron]

Alle Deutschland! This sounds like something of DAF

[MrGeorgios2020]

This is amazing! I am now tempted to compose a song on my SQ80!!!

[retrosound72]

@MrGeorgios2020

:))

[ImperatorDX]

This choir is one of my favourite synth sounds. Great demo.

[retrosound72]

@ImperatorDX

thank you

[datacodedivision]

That is definitely DAF lol

[soundmanhaven1]

marko this ensoniq SQ-80 is something i wasn't expecting to sound this good well it better then i've hear about nice.

[NewShimmer]

The problem with the odyssey's sample & hold is that once you start playing with it, you lose track of time.

[chepossofare]

great demo guys!!!!

I'm trying to build a DIY Odyssey, i hope it sounds very well such as your ARP

(Excuse me for my bad engllish)

[AtlantisLion]

The bassline is so damn close to DAF's "Der Mussolini"!!

[soundmanhaven1]

remind of ymo

[mummstylesound]

Supercool!!! ***** + Favorit

[KillKyleWeiss]

Great comp with all of these. Nice use of rubbermaid stools. The SQ80 voice sweeps vs the TR707... totally synthchubbin'.

Six stars.

[DeadWhiteButterflies]

A blast from the past! Suddenly it's 1983 again! hahaha. I'd love to get hold of the drum machine.

[ReeallityBytes]

@DeadWhiteButterflies oh yeah!

[magevers]

Very nice demo Marco.

[retrosound72]

thank you Marc :)

[morsebulb]

damn you for having all these sweet synths!

[mik300z]

[retrosound72]

[neofuturist23]

[Fingermush]

This is so freaking good, more SQ-80 please. Maybe a Juno 60-KR55b/ SQ-80 track.

[retrosound72]

KR55B ist great but unfortunately I have none

[unknowntomillions]

tanz den jesus christus...

[MACuriousX]

Great machines and cool sound!

[retrosound72]

[guzerator]

Der Arpolini! :D

[GCom67]

I agree the ARP sounds awesome and the SQ80 breath voices really does go well in the tune.

Thanks Marko for another super video!

[retrosound72]

thank you graeme :)

[jezuz12345]

That ARP sounds awesome on all your videos, I think I'm falling in love! :-D

Great video again, love the DAF-style bass line!

Cool, keep it up! ;-)

[retrosound72]

I like the ARP too!

[synthmx]

keyboard stands are so overrated...:P

[hartig1967]

DAF lässt grüssen ;)

[yamahasynth]

[zegkenjijdemosselman]

Great retro! Are you always improvising or playing excisting songs?

Greet from Holland.

[oyvindoyvind]

Tanz den Mussolini!

Great stuff as always.

[retrosound72]

thx :)

[OriginalBBQMaster]

Eine starke Uptempo-Nummer hier! Das ist das wahre 80s-Revival! ;)

Auf einem solchen ARP hab ich auch schon gespielt, ein sehr schönes Gerät... :)

[retrosound72]

Ja, diesmal ein bisschen was schnelleres... (:

Der ARP ist wirklich ein außergewöhnliches Gerät.

[normswwworld]

All your videos are awesome!

Thanx for sharing all this great vintage stuff!

Norm Peterson

[retrosound72]

thank you Norm :)

[EFKA526]

80er Synthiewave :D Mag ich. Wieder ein schönes Video! Der Ensoniq klingt auch irgendwie nach Depeche Mode (meine Lieblingsband die ich in6 Wochen mir reinziehen werde live) gleich. Hmm ham die den benutzt?

[retrosound72]

Hmm, ich wüßte nicht dass die den SQ-80 in ihrem Arsenal hatten, aber der klingt schon typisch 80`s. Ein sehr unterschätztes Teil.

[stuckdan]

I have the SQ-1. This is at least 79 times better.

[soundmanhaven1]

cool sounds marko ...:)

[retrosound72]

thx a lot :)

[Jezro]

Can I have the 707 Preaze :|

[VictorFleur]

Very nice! Is there a difference between SQ-80 and ESQ-1 (apart from floppy disk)?

[retrosound72]

yes

more internal waves (75) (ESQ only 32), polyphonic aftertouch, floppy, Midi Thru, more sequencer capacity

[Posthuman2003]

lovely Marko, always enjoy your video's!!!

[retrosound72]

thank you john

[WUNLUVE]

this shits too dope. very good job a+ haha

[mmrva]

Very, very nice track!

[retrosound72]

thank you

[mutantmoments]

Rebirth can never sound like the real thing. Like the DAF bassline.

[kerzwhile]

Yet another awesome Vid!! If we all chipped in a $1 he could buy a Boat full of keyboard stands!!  ;)

[Rawwbot]

Ganz schön flottes Stück, der 707 und die ARP sind ja schon ein Dream-Team, aber mit der SQ80 einfach unschlagbar!

5/5

[retrosound72]

dankeschön :)

[picturemusic75]

very amazing...!

[retrosound72]

thanks :)

[kvfive]

SQ-80 is timeless treasure... so underated :)

there is a great FREE vsti of the SQ80...

the SQ8L.... very accurate !

Thanks for posting this vid...... top man!

[retrosound72]

yes very underrated and the SQ8L is great

thank you

[audiotrax2000]

I had those two synths back in the day! Analog and digital: both equally good at what they could do.

[retrosound72]

the best of both worlds :)

[Jackpacific556]

VERY good song. You're the best :).

[retrosound72]

thank you

[Jackpacific556]

Do you know if there's a programme that can create TR-808 beats??

[retrosound72]

I think no

try out

[Rawwbot]

@Jackpacific556 Rebirth RB-338 can create TR808 Beats, you also get a TR909 and 2x 303 too, for free (search the Web).

[Jackpacific556]

@Rawwbot i already tried to find Rebirth but Propellerhead (the creators) has shutted it down, is no more downloadable.

[omgcamlolz]

hell yeah break out the 707

parttyyyyyyyyy

[mikeycomputer]

5/5

How many of these synths do you have on hand? I'm just curious.

[retrosound72]

too many ;)

thank you

[kitkatworld]

This machine have quite good string/voice/vocal sounds already, sounding mysterious and creepy. Makes good effect with minimalist 80th beat ^^

Thank you for these uploads my friend Retro ^___^

[retrosound72]

Hi kitkat

thank you for your nice comment.

I think the SQ-80 is one of the most underrated vintage synths ever.

all the best

[mesmoland]

Riminds me of "Der Mussolini" from the album "Alles ist gut"

[retrosound72]

yes the bassline

[SwimmingLightes]

oh wie schön :-)

der chor ist einfach himmlisch...!

ich mag die ensoniq synths digital aber trozdem irgendwie schön vintage hehe...

ich hab noch nen alten esq i rumstehen ...die filter sind einfach geil

[Electrice]

5/5

[retrosound72]

thanks

[Korgator]

Synthi Pop vom feinsten,echt genial Marko...5*****

[retrosound72]

danke dir

[sternrekorder]

Die 707 seh ich oft in letzter Zeit, wird mit Sicherheit "DER NEUE KLASSIKER".

Klingt aber auch echt geil zusammen mit dem ARP.

Erstklassig wie immer, Marko!

[retrosound72]

danke kumpel :)

ich mag die 707 einfach, auch vom Klang her und

sie setzt sich gut im Mix durch ohne zu dominieren

und jetzt laß den Jupi glühen! ;)

[STINKOPOOP]

WOOT!  retrosound FTW!

[031doolittle]

toller sound :-) 5*

[retrosound72]

danke :)

[djwaveace]

[schmittwilli]

Erstklassiger Synthi-Pop!
