Really, dude? 6:36 before you even play a single note?

@AdamMichaelBeck I just can't apologize enough. I know I totally violated the contract I signed with you in regard to meeting your personal desires, as opposed to my own intent. Oh, and P.S. Apparently you didn't notice the extensive series of videos that follow, filled with sounds and demonstrations. But still, you're right.

Hi,

The video is really awesome, thanks! I just have to say though... you mentioned tv.sonicwatch a few times... I can understand if you want to send ppl there for even more nice videos and to promote the site, but you specifically said the video and sound quality was better....

Cmon... that site's vid and sound is pretty bad.. I don't like the ads on Youtube but sonicwatch's quality is no way near as good..

Love your vids on here though.

@dwasco If you look through my videos, you'll see that there was an old version of this set of videos that was uploaded at a time when YouTube did not have the audio or visual quality it does today. At that time, the quality at Sonicwatch was better. However, this particular version of this video is considerably better than both of the old versions. I understand your confusion and apologize!

@PimpinBassie2 I don't use effects in my demonstrations, as the original intent of them was to give the interested party the ability to assess whether they liked the actual sound of a particular vintage synthesizer (and not an effect).

Bought the iMS20 app for the iPad and was completely baffled by it. "I know", i thought, "'I'll get the MS20ic controller and legacy synth" That helped immensely but this series of vids has just helped me considerably. Thank you firstly to Korg for making these wonderful products and then to you Marc for helping philistines like me use the damn things!!!!!

@AutomaticGainsay Apology accepted ;)

I say! You're looking rather fly in this Vlog Marcus! lol! Great Vid as always! I was wondering, would you know by ANY Chance how Andy Barlow (England's foremost Electronic Composer half Duo) managed to get the MS-20 to sound like it has 'Touch Sensitivity', & Have it routed through the Filter? It's in the 5th, & has Portamento (Glide) but the rest is beyond me. It's called "Butterfly Effect" by Lamb. Do you reckon you could sculpt a similar sound? How did he do it! Thanks mate. You da Man, Man!

Watching this was very useful for learning how to use the iMS-20 on the iPad. That should have been enough but no, I had to get one of the real things :-)

Great Synth, great series. Thanks.

@shineon68 I have owned two MS-20s, two MS-10s, and an MS-50. I have enjoyed all of them, but I've only loved the MS-50. It's a fantastic fully-modular synthesizer, and has a warmer sound than the MS-20.
