Logan String Melody II + MiniPops Junior

[Sjobeck7]

Once again, these sounds are so gorgeous they are edible!!!

[GnosticVelvet]

Sending good vibes your way ! Love this- Kinda' Pre new wave sound/feel.

[bocskai98]

soft and sweet

[Ampvega]

Good show mate! You got the spirit of Jean Michel Jarre in there, what with the atmosphere, phase shifting and passionate playing. Bravo!

[action4jaxon]

Holz ist doch was wunderbares!

Ok, Stringmachines auch. Ist das Minipops eigentlich Pitch/Tune-bar?

[TheMISA75]

Schöner 70er Jahre Sound

[Dirtyvinnie]

sounds like AIR i think they used it both on Moon Safari

[PanicPictures]

Und bei 2:33 oder so ... wie im Mittelteil von Autobahn (Kraftwerk).

[PanicPictures]

Am liebsten würde ich mich hinsetzen und 'ne Gitarrenspur dazu packen im David Gilmour, Edgar Froese oder Mike Oldfield Stil.

[retrosound72]

@PanicPictures

mach doch! freie bahn :)

[PanicPictures]

@retrosound72 Wenn ich Zeit hab. ;-)

[socalltd]

[paulj0557]

MMMUUUUSSHOWWWWWWWWrrrrrrOOOOO­OOMMMMSSSSSSS

[GBscottieUK]

So the real star of the show is the Small Stone Phaser then. As it seems common to all those great sounds.

[Tonyp68]

Also the Korg sounds very warm and analog on that Bossa Nova beat.

very JMJ.

[giddygavin]

A truly sublime combination!Excellent,thanks for posting.

[walterclosette]

Nice sounds !

[rickritis]

I especially like the light on the 1st beat!

[SwimmingLightes]

Tonnoxy

[retrosound72]

cool!

[MPOURNOUZIS]

hey retro is there any artist of the 70s that used the Logan String Melody? It has one of the best sounds that a synth can make please tell me...

[retrosound72]

east german band Karat in many tracks: König der Welt, Der Blaue Planet (and Minimoog)....

[PanicPictures]

@retrosound72 Aha, auch Ahnung von Musik.

[umajunkcollector]

@MPOURNOUZIS Also sounds like what Kraftwerk used in Autobaun.

[p0531d0n]

@MPOURNOUZIS Even Jean Michel Jarre used this one in the early days...

[mik300z]

What an incredible synth sound marco, so real and warm. I could listen to it all day:)

[retrosound72]

thank you mick

I also love the sound of the old Logan String.

[crinklewing]

Lovely classic sound.

[DigitalXploration]

Nice warm sound...

[ChemicalComedown]

Great video, I notice the original Small Stone phaser from ElectroHarmonix.

[Brixhousedotde]

geiler sound!

[djessay101]

sehr schön:-) und der Phaser gibt dem LOGAN noch den richtigen Pepp!!!

:-) :-) :-)

[retrosound72]

dankeschön:)

Stimmt , der SmallStone muss dahinter...

[soundmanhaven1]

[TR0jAX]

träum weiter :)

[eteokles3]

are you serious? thats the funniest commetn ive read in a long time!!!

[treeZon1]

no need for synths...ive got VSTI synths for a usb keyboard that have as hgood sounds..but dope shit here man

[Karmaneoeric]

Retro-futuristic bossa nova.........love it

[retrosound72]

thank you :)

[RyleeStrange]

i was just watching the original Assault on Precinct 13 and this reminds me of the score, quite a bit!

[downfader2]

Those chords remind me of the Smashing Pumpkins Adore album. Cool

[retrosound72]

thanks :)

[downfader2]

Massive fan of EHX pedals too. I think I have about 5 plus various other little treats to shove my synths and guitars into

:-)

[retrosound72]

synths loves EHX pedals :)

like all EHX stuff too

[downfader2]

I like putting a saw and triangle wave into the Big Muff Pi, then that into the phaser. Its a sound to rival the sherman filterbank imo.

[retrosound72]

cool

[thebrinksf]

very nice

[retrosound72]

thank you :)

[NickDrake101]

Thanks for presenting another top vintage synth classic here Marco...very desirable setup you have here! Vintage...Simple...Unique...th­at says a lot.

[retrosound72]

thanks a lot :)

[Gregsynth]

Out of all the analog gear I've seen, I've come across a couple I HAVEN'T SEEN!

Thanks! 5/5

[retrosound72]

The italian Logan String Melody is not so popular as the ARP Solina but I like the sound more. The MiniPops Junior you can hear in Video Killed The Radio Star from The Buggles

thank you :)

[Gregsynth]

So in simple terms, these are underrated pieces of machinery.

[retrosound72]

absolute!

[Asraaf]

Awesome! That makes me thinking of an 80s Sci-Fi movie. Once again, you opened a gate to the golden era! Remarkable is that the old gears are made of wood instead of the cheap plastic they are made of today. :)

[retrosound72]

Absolute agree!

thank you :)

[douro20]

How many oscillators does this string machine have in it?

[retrosound72]

one master oscillator + octave divider

the divider divide the master oscillator square wave into 12 different squarewaves, each tuned to one of the 12 notes.

[massia68]

Bellissimo!!! Grande Marko!

[retrosound72]

thank you

[mattblackcat]

String machine + phaser = Instant JM JARRE

[daspinmonkey]

You guys are so lucky playing with all this awesome gear!

hope one day to have something this cool.

[soogoonu]

how cute!

[jaroslorenc]

retrosound list of videos here

[tekkentool]

classic drum machine, classic stringer, classic phaser and a classic video man.

is there anything in your collection that isn't awesome?

[retrosound72]

thx a lot :)

[3wc]

Wow amazing man .....sniff sniff i wish i was from the analogue generation

[retrosound72]

thanks :)

[Ubermensch18]

This is great, it's good to see people still love to do sick stuff like this.

[retrosound72]

thank you

[CaseMarco]

Fascinating. At the very beginning it reminds me the atmosphere of many songs by the french group "air".

[retrosound72]

thx :)

AIR use the nice Solina Stringensemble in the songs

[CaseMarco]

ah... that's why! Love your work, retrosound!

[tizzdizz]

Wow man, that is killer. I love it! I want one of everything please.

[retrosound72]

thanks :)

[Indensity]

you always got things that I never seen or heard before

[retrosound72]

thank you
