[didimoeller]

I remember that I had one of these in the early 90s. I loved it, but sold it for a JV 90. What was I thinking??????

[spin467]

[musicgearvideos909]

Thanks cool synth!

[PracticalSenses]

It's amazing!!!! Sound and video a lot more beautiful than most of today's shit!!!

[dgrespect]

@PracticalSenses is this solo or arranger? please tell me?



[thiagotecnico]

@dgrespect synth+rythm machine+sequencer = Workstation keyboard

[dvamateur]

Yeah, this is what I call technique and sequencing skills. I mean, isn't music making on modern PC cheesy compared with this?

[svartnos77]

This was my first keyboard, damn i miss it a little bit now :(

[RomeroFanboy]

Son of a bitch are the first words out of my mouth when i heard this...

I want one! 1:30 is the fucking shit!

[sssyntax]

I just picked this synth up yesterday here in Japan. I got a great deal and it's in mint condition. I noticed that the Ensemble patch says #15 in the video, but it's actually performance #05 in case anybody is curious. This is fantastic synth that is incredibly easy to play. How this guy in the video is working the synth is basically how it should be approached and played. Knowing how to play the keys is highly recommended for this synth.

Please I have a question about this synth if you could help me.

I bought V50, I had to replace the internal battery and now suddenly the preassure sensitivity does not work for the Do keys, they sound like they were pressed the hardest way regardless of they way I play them. This evenig the keyboard worked fine for some minutes and then it worked like I described before again. I don't kno how to fix it, please can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance!

[MrFaceHead]

All it needed was a time warp button to go back five years and make soundtracks for kickboxing movies. I mean that in a nice way.

[tokartt]

[griggles85]

This dude is awesome!! Sheesh!

[LogiForce86]

Damn, this guy place a nice solo. I looked up this synth cause I saw one at a local shop here. Hmmm... might pick it up for fun. :)

[ILSTEVO]

is it just me or is the best synth solo ever?

[sauermusicDE]

Thanks for uploading!

[leeg32]

loved the way the green LED's lit depending on which channel was playing. Espaailly good in sequencer playback mode and all the room lights switched off - who needs disco lights!

[lasseluktarsvavel]

at 1:25 i sure missed some gated drums and a guitar solo to join in

[HyperD]

thank you for posting this video! I got this synth a while back for cheap but never had the time to fully learn how to use it. Time to look online for some guides!

[dvamateur]

Yeah, in the right hands any synthesizer should be alright. And this one is definitely alright. On top of that this guy really knows what he is doing. I especially like the bass part. Anyway, I remember when the V50 came out. It was probably only a few months after M1 came out. The V50 put an end to the Yamaha legendary D-sersies of FM synthesizers. Even though the V50 is also FM, it was the other things that mattered: sequencer, effects, drums, and off course, the disk drive!

[Rocinante01]

I don't ever remember this coming out, but I did see it in a music store and bought it up back around 1990 or so. And yeah, you're right, it was the end of the DX as we knew it, and signaled the way for the SY77...6op FM workstation with full wavetable synthesis as well.

[Hyper5nic]

Amazing synth and performance, even after 20 years ;-) i enjoyed this one very much!
