There's a lot of angry little boys who forgot to take their Ritalin posting to this thread. What's with the attitude? There are hundreds of videos of the MG-1 being played. Go watch them if that's all you want. If your panties are in a bunch over some guy having something to say, take it somewher...

So, it's half Kokomo, half 'Coctail.' Not a bad picture, but not one of Tom's more memorable. Certainly no 'Risky Business.' "Who's the U-boat captain?" Unforgettable.

Very nice. The title of the video is incorrect, though. It should be part 2.

@johnbambammorgan Psst... it's Rhodes.

Dang, if this doesn't sound as good as a Minimoog Voyager. Save three grand and get one of these.

Ripping good demo. Nice graphics. Very Amiga-demo style.

Why is your X-Station so shiny? It looks more like brushed aluminum than mat plastic. Nice demo.

Very good effort, but we can see you struggling. What you need is for someone to invent a keytar with a bass built in. Or, you could just partition the keyboard with bass below and lead above. Wouldn't need the bass at that point.

Headphones, too? What a neat bit of kit.

Fantastic! Small and slim. Just what I've been looking for. I bought a Rosewill laptop backpack for my Toshiba Qosmio F755 only I was disappointed there is not room enough for my Novation X-Station 25, my favorite synthesizer/MIDI controller. Also not enough room for my Alesis Photon X25. And, it...

Well, it ain't Mozart, but it's a nice free flowing way to create music. Come to think, I wonder what Mozart would have done with all this technology? Oh, wait... that was already revealed in Bruce Sterling's story Mozart In Mirrorshades. At least, it was in an offhand way.

Wow. For a three minute short this is stupendous. I, too, hope this is an independent effort, like the Atlas Shrugged production. From the little I've read of the 'big hollywood' attempt at production The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, they already have a screenwriter who knows nothing about science o...

@vwestlife Language. There are kids here.

Dang, but don't they sound good even in low res.

And it has V-Link. Connect it to an Edirol MD-PS-1 running motion dive .tokyo and you have an instant video show controlled by your Gaia. Full featured multimedia spectacular in a back pack. Can't ask for more than that.

Good, but should have used direct connect rather than ambient. Sounds...eh.

Sounds almost like early Schulze, with a little Kraftwerk. Was this also the T2EX?

If the GM/GS is available only through external MIDI control, what's to stop the user from running a MIDI cable from the OUT to the IN and letting the GAIA trigger its own GM set? There's probably some logical reason why it wouldn't work, but it seems as if it should work. Trick the GAIA into pl...

Everywhere I've read how fabulous the SY85 is for composition and sequencing. Here are these modern Yamaha rigs and the only thing this MOX6 has over the 85 is twice the polyphonics, and the MM6 is basically no better than the 85 in any major respect. I am so glad I got an 85, even with the extra...

I'd call the CS-30 (or the CS-30L, my preference) one of the best basic analogs out there. A lot cheaper than a new Voyager, about the same price as a Prophet 08, which I would not mind having, either. Knobs, knobs, it's all in the knobs.

Very tight sequencing. Spot on with the samples. I'd love to hear this with vocals included. Behold, the power of cheese-- um, I mean, the power of XV-5080, to emulate an entire band. It really is an all in one synthesizer.

@M3sslah I think the poster said this is not a quality comparison but merely a subjective exhibition

After going over the specs, it's obvious that the TR's evolved into the mighty Micro-X, which is just a pocket sized TR with no sequencer or numeric keypad. Even the buttons and knobs are marked the same. They sound great, don't get me wrong, but this is machine evolution at work.

Worst audio of any convention interview ever! The astronauts broadcasting from the moon sounded clearer. They're doing this on purpose, aren't they? We'll never really hear how good this is. Crummies.

Really crappy, choppy video. Couldn't upload something high quality? Disappointing.

@ienjoymasturbating I'm sure you do. Twit. You do realize you are yelling at a video that only plays because you are watching it? Nobody is making you listen. Unless there is someone standing behind you with a pistol against your head. In which case, I urge that person to pull the trigger.

@12345678909269 The late 90s as a kid... The late 90s as a kid... What a concept. And I remember the Beatles landing at Idlewilde.

@SoundsAndGear You know, that's just crazy enough to be true. Wait... I'm getting this vision of the Bowery Boys trying to groove on Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin after drinking brown cool-aid with Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in the Beach Boys' tent. What? It could happen.

Wish I could afford one. Wish I could afford a DX-1! Why not? As long as I'm wishing... Heh :) And throw a CS-80 in while I'm at it. Ah, but that's why we have Arturia. Still, we will always need Katsunori-san. Domo arigato!

@petbabyamy EXB-MOSS is a card that installs in KARMA or Triton, and is basically half of a Z1, or six Prophecies. It gives the keyboard six voices of physical modeling and some incredible filters, but is in some ways more limited than the Z1 in ways the signal can be routed. Korg's web site has ...

I love that little "teh!" at the end. Like your lips can't help saying You ain't seen nothing yet. More power to you, young miss. Very good work.

Every synth party I've ever seen... well, the picture that comes to mind is a bunch of dorky middle aged guys drinking less than premium quality beer. I don't know which planet this video is from, but it isn't the one I've been stuck on.

Cheesy audio repro, and the graphic looks like something phallic trying reach out and probe someone. Not the best demo.

What ... are you all ... drinking...? Mehshuggah

There's a core with Gilbert Gottfried's voice? Really good animations.

As far as composing music, it may not be Mozart, but KARMA is getting close. It's only a short step from improvising backing tracks that take their lead from the soloist's input, to producing new and original melody. Computers design chips for the next generation of computers, faster and more int...
