  • he looked like he'd have a HARD DAY or he's just rely tired

  • "Lets make lots of money..."

    Is that what the Pet Shop Boys did to buy 2 Fairlights?

  • @javier302 And lot of money

  • @kekenalii

    Coolest synthesizer ever!

  • @cormac8181 - no their first live performance was in 1984 or 1985 on a (I believe) Dutch show performing a very early version of West End Girls. You can find it on the DVD of A Life In Pop.

  • @jx866 Not all day. Someone tripped over the sync cable just before we went live and I had to solder the connection. I used 2 Fairlight 11x's for all the backing (16tracks) synced with an SRC. Overall the Fairlights were mechanically stable only the software sometimes would give me problems but if you'd done your homework (usually testing in my Fairlight studio) sessions went smoothly. Just had an email from someone who has my old 11x and it seems lots of old program disks with sounds.

  • Hello ! he has the very rare and u will never find yamaha dx1 ! monster fm synth.... only a few made !!!! digital but sound very nice

  • this is good , considering it's live .

  • THank you very much for the video. It's a collection of the keyboard player dreams of the 80's ...

  • @kekenalii Why ? I mean for nostalgic reasons, yes...that would be awesome,

    but on a technological standpoint, it would be almost pointless especially with todays technologies and DAW's and VSTi samplers...I remember I always wanteda Korg Wavestation, I finally got one...then I stumbled on VSTi and the Korg Wavestation plugin and I sold my hardware. Ever try to find ROM cards for a Wavestation ? but it's all there in the virtual synth...
