Yamaha FS1R demo

[fender1000100]

Nice evolving sounds. But theres still something missing that a DX7 MK2 brings. Its a weight a substance to the sounds without the need for samples or to much layering and effects.

[douro20]

Does the Rhodes sound in the second tune use all eight operators?

[FOCtv]

@douro20 It uses algorithm 13 with V-OP1 being the only one muted.

[ShadowsofSmoke]

Hollowsounds make some very good samples of this module.......but ther's nothing like the real thang.

[Sinfonia2010]

why this expander is not famous as the jv or xp roland or m1 or many others?

[FunkBach]

@Sinfonia2010 Because this is not a mainstream synth; it's only for the real afficinados. :-)

[samsamba08]

OMG! The voices sound incredible! Is there any way I could replicate this in FM8?

[FOCtv]

As far as I know, FM8 cannot do the same type of formant synthesis as the FS1r, but the FM8 can do things such as morphing that the FS1r cannot do.

[Raydensheraj]

Very Unique Synth, hard to use through dont like the Programing of this one. Soundwise besides the Yamaha EX 5 and Korg Wavetstation EX my fav...

[SynthMeTV]

This is a GREAT Synth that these demos dont even do justice. Get one if you can find it. You will never sell it.

2:28 !

[MadCobraProductions]

I will be buying mine tomorrow ! WOO HOO !

[ColdGrayMorning]

Power of FM, human FM

[pierstheoneandonly]

song from 7.30 sounds like Joe Zawinul.

[bissia]

@pierstheoneandonly He (r.i.p.) used to have a AK Sampler as well

[FOCtv]

Formant and FM, but NO samples.

[illDiology]

I'm guessing the all the voices are done with the formant synthesis - no samples used?

[Biopharmer]

Are these demos as MP3's anywhere?

[FOCtv]

I'm not sure if Yamaha or anyone else has ever posted all of the demos as mp3s.

[Aetila]

Thanks for uploading the demo!

[FOCtv]

I'll be updating this post with the song names. Thanks for tuning in!

[P4C800d]

Thank you! : D

[P4C800d]

I really like the song starting @7:30. Does it have a title?
