NIce demo! just a question....at 0:40 the sound really opens up in a wide stereo image, but I didnt see you did any adjustments on the synth ? What exactly did you do to get the nice stereo sound ?

@vhauge Its the analog chorus on the VX90, makes it a bit wider and more creamy, but it's not as strong as the chorus on a Juno

[CoolColJ]

@vhauge And the Aether reverb I added :)

Shouldn't be too hard, it's quite a simple symnth ;)

Great synth, had mine for over 20 years. Problem with tuning now though, autotune does not always succeed.

@tonticule

probably needs a recap and calibration. The capacitors in the power supply age and die after a while

class sounding synth-very nice.

[dirtyoscs]

boring and thin sounding...

[defendergroove]

strong sound

Great sounds! I got a VX90 too, but I haven't had the time to learn to program it properly yet.

Thanks for the advice, I will deffo look into that. I love my old VX, the phasing sounds you can get out of it are superb!
