heh heh... this is awesome - I love the voice samples.
-
What's a "real" instrument? Vibrating air is vibrating air...
-
They both have a distinct sound. I prefer the NED myself (even though I will never be able to afford one-even used these days) it was the quintessential digital synth IMHO. So many great soundtracks were scored on these.
-
I've wondered what Stephen looked like since I saw his name on Annie Lennox's solo albums. :)
-
I prefer the FAIRLIGHT CMI to the NED Synclavier and the FAIRLIGHT looks nicer!
-
Fookin lovely ...Got me into sampling..then it all went mad...VSts?
-
Stephen is Genius!

Mac is just a terminal for Synclavier. It has nothing to do with the creation of sound.

Great stuff, and so wonderfully dated. What up with the birds at 5:50?
Written by someone who has never used a synclavier clearly..

I owned 4 of them, and a Buchla, and aFairlight and a studer, and Protools etc... and can say for a fact that nothing compares to the creative possibilities that the synclavier had, yes things have more options and bells and whistles, but synclavier integrated it all before anyone else, it was also the biggest pain in the ass ever!!! 1 meg of RAM cost $1000.00.
