[theHackerOfMayhem]

05:50 ~ Welcome to virtual "naturality"...

[neons99]

1:48 reminds me of quake soundtrack :D

[odinmp5]

i been playing synths since 1988. this thing is in my top 5. once you get to understand all its capabilities, youll notice sky is the limit.

[theHackerOfMayhem]

@odinmp5 ...there are no Limit's ! :D

[theonemusicartist]

how did you create that patch at 5:02? that sounds amazing

[theonemusicartist]

this is perfect for TRANCE!!!



[DOGMATECH2]

I loved it back in the days :D

Designed by genius Joerg Shaaf, now making the spectralis.

The envelope macro dial is amazing!

[Q36BN]

trzeba było wziąć na warsztat muzyke z terminatora :)

[technoclassix2brain]

My first Synthesizer!!!

[MrCrashbandicut]

no manches esta muy chido el midi ..... broder te embidio jejeje gracias por la oprtunidad de conocer estos fantasticos instrumentos CHIDOTE

[jazst21]

2:50 is superb!

btw, do they still sell this synth nowadays?

[Docipede]

@jazst21 Company has been out of business for a year. Planned to get one a few years ago for $400 or so, but since they've become a bit sparser and more expensive :( Shame.

[theHackerOfMayhem]

04:07..... perfect!!

[danielhl22]

why so SIRIUS??

[LIGHTRONIX]

@danielhl22 hahaha best comment evar

[danielhl22]

@LIGHTRONIX :D

[choplapin]

Pour les potes de FRANCOIS qui depuis 1995 se demandent comment j'ai réussi un scat avec le vocoder du SIRIUS: J'ai juste rajouté mon scat sur trois patterns courts et ai reporté le tout sur une quatrième piste vierge en modulant le tout avec un phasing;FRANCOIS y a rajouté en live un solo de MOOG du RAVEN MAX pour en faire un morceau d'anthologie de 9 minutes que les murs de notre ex QUASIMID CHOP en tremblent encore!

[RobertFeelFree]

3:35 thast so nice :D :D :D dont stop this ;)

[scrualla]

Sounds like a carnival organ. But other than that you guys make great videos and you know your shit. I just don't think I like the Sirius even after hearing your expert playing on it.

[salvadory]

@scrualla i think tis the webcams or digital camera poor sound recording- ive played these they sound much better in person or probally recorded- pretty amazing for techno and modern electronica!

[IllusionSet]

@scrualla Carnival Organ? :/

[easternmafia]

4:10

[rouncer81]

really really really nice man... thankyou heaps.

[pogsquatch]

I like the pretty Polish girl at 8:06.

[PietroMOKOAllegrini]

@pogsquatch laura palmer from twin peaks! :D

[TheFatherlongLegs]

@pogsquatch She's not Polish, that's Laura Palmer from the 90's TV show; Twin Peaks.

[88aro]

@pogsquatch shes name is a Sheryl Lee :):)

[sanka816]

sirius black..... harry potter xD



[Docipede]

Fantastic, wholly underrated synth. Similarly fantastic demo from a gifted programmer, too.

[jesterbr]

03:30 - O.O ohshit

[antix100]

Awesome machine

[DemonWTF]

great demo... makes me want one LoL

[TOKYOJOE]

hmm you are a good demonstrator! i almost forgot this synth. i'd buy one.

[DJmaoriDMW]

i like the video effects aswell, but the sound if bloody amazing, man i was lucky enough to have a keyboard when i was younger so i know the feeling :) and oh wow, when i connected it to the large stereo :D big grins all round!

[astralboy79]

4:15 detuned osc great sound

[nvanzoeren]

@astralboy79

Hell Ya it is!!! creepy and dramatic. He is just very good at programming. All his vid's are just awesome. Great video editing as well. My favorite synth youtube channel!!

[hshiram]

Tight

[Desmaad]

Sounds like a slab of lead!

[Triames]

2:14 HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL YEEAAH

Awesome video and skills, 5/5!!

[Sirushi232]

Świetne, świetne.

[LizzardHimself]

neeeeeeeed!

[vreeeuum]

i didnt know this synth

[lisamp7]

where would you buy cool synths like these? all the music stores have the same things... microkorg moog phatty, r3, juno g, .... where are all the other good ones?

[VictorFleur]

on eBay :D. Best synths aren't in store!

[fishefood]

yeah 2;30 onward on a HUGE p.a. would rock you to the bone..awesome range...fully digital huh? kinda virusy..(good.) how do you find them to compare? Is the midi tight?(prog.changes/ext.filter tweakin etc.?) Sounds great...and I always love the footage in your demo vids..where is/are these cold,grey buildings/enviroments?-(right outside?) Very cool,raw, vibes..keep it up! Respect from Nola....

[betteroffted23]

I used to have one of these things a few years back. Loved it.

[AburameFifox]

How much did you cost the keyboard?

[mdnafanklub]

synthé programmé par Kratwerk ...

[madichelp0]

0:57 crocodile!!!

[AburameFifox]

@madichelp0 lol

[denehez]

I just cant wait for this baby to arrive! Thanks for letting me know it exists!

IT IS .....ALIVE!!!!!

[TomZentra]

This video really brings back memories. It makes me wonder, "Why did I ever sell that synth?!" It was a lot better than the Andromeda.

[fishefood]

whoa..that good?

[cocooned80]

hey people,

i have one quasimidi sirius to sell for 500€ !

if you are interessted , so send me a e-mail.

thx cheers from germany

[douro20]

This is an anadigic synthesizer...in other words, it uses digital waveforms and analog filters.

[pheargoth]

almost...but the filters are digital too

all processing is done on a set of Philips DSPs, filtering, synthesis etc.

I have two of these synthesizers.

[103959770979]

German Panzer.

[mariodivine]

Pamiętam czasy kiedy w łapki wpadł mi FRONTPAGE i była w nim reklama sprzęty QUASIMIDI i tego potwora. Ciekawy instrument, co by nie mówić na tamte czasy zaprojektowany do typowo elektronicznego i brudnego zgrzytu. I chyba wcale się tak nie zestarzał.

[DOKTOR242]

Masz ciekawe podejscie do muzy i zyntezatorow.

Spoko stronka:-) Moim marzeniem jest OB12.

[caseyfrom39]

how the fuck did i miss the TP part...

[metaspherz]

Great demo. You got some mad skillz.

Guitar Center Detroit used to carry the Quasimidi Sirius. I wanted one. It had some sweet presets, as anyone can hear during this demo. But GC only had the display. I tried to order one for about but even the Floridian distributor couldn't land one. So, I bought a Quasimidi Polymorph and later a Korg Triton. But, honestly, I REALLY wanted that Sirius. It's incredibly expressive. In 1997 there was little to compete with it but it was ahead of it's time.

[qwerfderf]

WHY SO SIRIUS

[metaspherz]

lol!

[velomicro]

about 2 minutes in I get a Metroid: Zero Mission feeling with that vox pad thing.

[zzzxtreme]

a lil bit cold sounding. but that is perfect for many people. fanatics would go for warmer synths

[guigolazo]

wuaaaaaaaaa this is perfect!!

[rhodochrosite123454]

Just bought one on EBAY for £375...Its AWESOME...

[onezeroeightzero]

I just bought one myself :) They're great aren't they.

[mimoocho]

Any drums in it?

[103959770979]

Amazing instrument !!! no one, no brand or model of today day can do this. I love you Germany.

[triplenippel123]

love the pad part with the girl ...

[88aro]

its a theme from twin peaks ...

[triplenippel123]

yes your right, stunning cords

[kotep777]

holy mother of god

[crystalking1]

Hi i have just come across your syth video of the quasimidi, i have had mine for about 4 years now, and loving evrey minet of it, great sounds will you post any more up, Great stuff

[HappyTreeHomie]

Just bought a sirius off ebay for 300 € :) can't wait till it's arrived !

[guigolazo]

really? cheap and good

[blade004]

REAL NICE !!!!!, I want one :)

[whisperdancer]

How the hell does any sound come out of that synth? There are no cables going into the line outs or headphone jack. The only thing I see is a yellow midi cable.

[johnrozzo]

he simply connected a stereo cable into the headphone socket: you can clearly see it upward on the right of the keyboard... at first you can be fooled into thinking that the black thing is the vocoder microphone; well it isn't :)

[whisperdancer]

Yes, you are right!!!

It's so close to the vocoder, I didn't see it.

Why don't you post the sounds on quasimidi yahoo groups as a sysex file?

It would be great, as you have some nice sounds on it.

It's such a complete keyboard, completely ahead of it's time.

[milestonedd]

dood that synth looks PHAT

[mattsynth]

You people do not get it. It is not the synth that sounds so good it is the way Jexus plays the machine. Any decent synth will do just fine. Learn all you can about sound construction.

[jimman272002]

i agree.if a player knows the sound layering beneath his fingers,he can make you hear amazing things

[johnrozzo]

that is true, but this thing is really awesome... I know that because I own it... you get a very easy to operate 7-tracks pattern sequencer, a vocoder, an arpeggiator/gater/chorder, lfo syncable to the bpm and lot of other stuff (drum sound are fantastic, so it is the drumgrid sequencer); besides the synth engine, you got to like the 'performance' possibilities the machine has... lots of knob and buttons... it's a real pleasure to work with it

[lundijuno106]

why does it remember me another German virtual analogue synth, the Access Virus? it has the same sound, the same features...

[circuslead]

que buen aparato no lo tenia!!!

[exactspace]

this is amazing... can't find it on ebay at all.

[pheargoth]

I have two of these babies :) absolutely mental sounding synths. I bought mine in early 99, direct from germany. the screen got pushed inside the chassis during transit from Germany to Perth in western australia. I phoned them up and they sent a new one, and were supposed to pick up the faulty one..it never happened, so i fixed the screen on the "broken" one and got 2 for the price of 1! best thousand bucks i ever spent on two cutting edge synths (at the time!)audio out is via headphones in vid

[SchweinchenHorst]

Yeah, and after this Quasimidi went out of Business ;) - Joke!

Must sell mine in the year 2004 because of study. But before I sampled everything. With Kontakt 3 now I can recreate much of the wired sounds!

[quartercherries]

wow, this is...i think you should really get some sleep. since this was posted a long time ago, are you feeling better?

[masterc1ip]

"Where are this synth made ? "

they were made in Germany

[Trusten1984]

Where are this synth made ?

[shamraig]

This was the very first synth I bought way back in 1998 (when I was 14). I used it loads but I stood on the power cable and it pulled the plastic plug bit out of the back. It still works but only with electrical tape. Don't know why quasimidi folded. Crying shame really as they made some really impressive sounding (and looking) machines. I still hear it on some records today. Especially the drums.

[synerjee]

They're entirely different machines. The Kontrol 49 doesn't have a synthesizer built in.

[electricprince]

very nice synth. but were is the audio

cable from behind???

[devmiles]

dispite it is not analog this synth is capable of making some very phat sounds .. very german and one of the first generation VA's.

[pillowheadkiss]

24-bit technology. Sounds better in person and more dreamy. Emotionaly damaging. Keys yellow but the memories never fade.

[weejunguy]

I can't stop watching this! Great sounds from an excellent synth. Love the Twin Peaks effect too !

[ARUK1]

I've got on of these, it really is a great little synth, you can edit any onboard sound in about 128 different ways or just create your own from scratch. The possibilities are endless on this thing... runs nicely along side my TC Powercore inside my machine.

[Biopharmer]

are the keys really yellowing already?

[jphuuskon]

The keys on the Sirius are indeed of some cheap plastic that does star to get yellow with age. Doesn't matter really, the keyboard assembly is absolutely horrible to play and it's better to play it by MIDI with another keyboard. :P

[BlackGnosis]

<3 Totally awesome.

[sadman666]

How do you make SQS? I can never do them =[

[ThyroonTurrican]

Quasimidi from Germany! I have "the Raven"!

But Quasimidi is no more! :(

[liennto]

where you guys get all these synths?

[ZbyszekG]

MASAKRAS :) świetny jesteś! rób to dalej bo robisz to dobrze, "twin peaks" wymiata:) swoją drogą to czekam ,aż wydasz swoją płytę!! all the best !

[DanAilyGood]

kalejdograf

The way of reception of kaleidoscopical effects is patented - the patent ¹ 2158162 RF on the invention " the Way of reception of kaleidoscopical effects " And in what the principle of action kalejdografa consists?

[devmiles]

fucking hardcore!

[petrofelix]

you are a crazy and this video is perfect :.(

[johnrozzo]

VERY good work Jexus! this is a demonstration that romplers have so much power inside! you could come with so much interesting sounds! kudos...

[dtnyc5000]

Heard of it it but never quite heard it. WOW!impressive to say the least.. Lots of beautifull and very usable stuff you've got going there! You must put a really interesting act on stage. Totally loved the video fx and cutaways (alligator included - we like 'em in Florida) - RRRRAD. Poland rocks bad ass!! Love from the US.

[alienorbiter]

OMG, we are now in a stage where digital = good. I feel so old.

Anyways, that Sirius sounds wicked. Sirius Black.

[everts76]

hi there! i was a polymorph owner, i like your great sounds and programming and i think we have to say that the quasimidi fall down is a tragedy for all the synthesizers addicts!! now i'm going to buy one of these and return to the past!

thanks a lot great job! ;-)

[roetsj]

Very nice,like the dynamics of this synth,earthshaking bass,but sounds like a true digital but still warmish!

I like!

[jjuup]

I created a Quasimidi Sirius User group at Facebook. welcome to join in.

[setoguru]

Pure Rich sound, cognratulations for the programming of the device, greetings from Turkey!!!

[jonnypatrick145]

great synth man, hold onto that one. love that setting at 7:04 sounds incredible!

[rg2027x]

wow, good demo. i can see where that synth could get really addictive..

[djoy2311]

PHENOMENAL. AMONG THE BEST SYNTH DEMOS EVER...partly because I know you programmed the sounds (you're not just auditioning presets.

LOVE the video fx!

[pdautg]

Fuck me. I was thinking about how dark (great!) this sounded. Was even thinking how it has some of the texture of the old 80's rolands. Was thinking about Twin Peaks and Badalamenti, and then...Laura Palmer!!  Goddamn!

[major198]

05:02 is the best damn shit ever !!

I also want this synth

[lucaslucash]

hi WC! dou you know if someone (maybe you) have a sirius to sell? regreats from Argentina!

you can send me a response to lucaslucash*hot/mail-com

[TelevizorProduction]

Witam. Strasznie podoba mi się motyw z 2:05-3:00 oraz 6:00-6:30, domyślam się że jest to improwizowane, ale czy nie znasz może utworów podobnych do tego? mogą być w formatach mod, xm itp.

[fibranijevidra]

Great presentation!

[salistg]

brzmi świetnie!

[hamsterdunce]

Haha... you're the baddest ass that ever badassed. You and your crazily arbitrary video effects, man. That shit around 6:30 was so random & effective.
