3:45 I like how it sounds like a drunk Speak & Spell

It's cool seeing difference between the eras of - research samplers == this thing at Bell Labs (7-bit 250 Hz samples) - bespoke professional samplers for the price of a big house == Synclavier (1977) / Fairlight CMI (1979) - commercially available samplers for the price of a nice car == Emulator (1981) / Emulator II (1984) - $2,000-ish rack samplers with SCSI CD-ROMs == lots of Akai/Roland stuff in the early '90s There's a whole other story of the availability of sample libraries for these things, starting with Synclaviers that were only available to Michael Jackson and movie producers, and ending up with the '90s boom of sample CDs which created entire genres. Trip hop, D&B, and a lot of pop electronic stuff like Moby and Fatboy Slim wouldn't exist without those Zero G / Distorted Reality / X-Static Goldmine sample CDs.

I like this very much! I like all of your harmonographs but this one is the most accessible to me currently. Thanks for posting this video along with an explanation of how the different ratios of the two pendulum oscillation rates affect the finished drawing.

Wow. Beautiful design. Getting ready to build my second Harmonograph machine. This is good inspiration. Kudos. 👍👍👍

STUNNING AND BRAVE 😳🙀

Maybe I’m missing something but by ‘77 famous musicians like Keith Emerson and Rick Wakefield had been playing synthesizers since at least 1970 and the Beatles had a very early version Moog in 1968. Not sure what was so special about this model but so much of the disco music was all synthesizer programmed sounds. Being “older” does bring back recollections! In fact, I was a sales rep for a diskette manufacturer…talk about a job with no future! 🤪

so clever, would be awsome to buy something like this for under $600 USD, would sell like crazy

This is fascinating 👏 to say the least. It was videos like this got me interested in electronics and synthesizers.

I can understand the importance of this because I grew up listening to Wendy Carlos and also Tomita.

That is amazing work. You basically made a CNC flattening machine. Very ingenious to cobble those parts together for this great machine. Your table looked great too.

I’m making one and your designs are most inspiring! By far my favorite.

This is seriously like magic, I admire your design abilities!

Gorgeous and very clever!

Harmonies of the spheres in the little corner- amazing

Love it

Will you be my grandpa?

This is wonderful, thank you.

video: at 8:39 me: so this is how the windows NT sound was created

Your wall mounted harmonograph looks so amazing. I have built several of these amazing machines with huge success. Well done!

"Tolerant wife," eh? Don't YOU live there, too?

The difference between this so formal overview and the fancy of the musicians when the access to DX7 some years later 😃 Sometimes salesman are important 😀finally

GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE FOR THOSE WHO DONT ACCEPT THE SACRIFICE OF HIS SENT SON TO THIS EARTH FOR OUR SINS HOW CAN WE NEGLECT SO GREAT A SALVATION, CHOOSE JESUS IN BELIEVE AND BE FREE GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON THAT WHOESOEVER BELIEVETH ON HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE

Amazing

❤🌹

if they could have had the sound of a 2019 telephone it would have said to skip 2020....lol

Lol, "at his pleasure, later this afternoon". Cool video

I doubt the part with the human voice saying the numbers.

Yo

Sounds like Boards of Canada starting around 9:00

Сейчас половина этого есть в GdrageBand А все вместе тонком синтезаторе с жк экраном Но на этом старом интереснее играть особенно что то из тех 80 ых годов

Roger Powell's demonstration was interesting. Some of the synth parts reminded my of his work with Todd Rundgren and Utopia.

Rad

I remember Kraftwerks!!!!!

Truly groundbreaking, the grand daddy of our modern gear....

A very beautiful piece, do you have any plans or draws for others to try to reproduce it?

08:31 Distinctly similar sequence to what he played on Todd Rundgren's Utopia Theme from the his 1974 live album, Utopia.

I think what we do in music production today was established in 1970s itself it seems. This is a wonder to the music industry and contemporary time. 💜🦋

~~~wait another year ~~~UTOPIA is here ~~~and there's always more can't wait to see how artificial intelligence shapes the musical expressions of the future!!

"it can make me sound like a group of chipmonks. or it can make me sound like a group of giants. or it can make me sound like a crowd of people speaking in unison." ... just sounds like robots. lol.

i was here 97th

Pre fairlight

What a dream machine for the time....in fact everything demonstrated was at your finger tips and virtually immediate...that still makes it more accessible than today's synths and workstations. Today that would still make a great soundscaping tool and much more.

Este video es super interezante y didactico a la vez, como este sujeto explica de una manera muy prolija sobre el uso de este teclado de esa epoca junto a una pc y su funcionalidad y combinacion entre ambas. La forma de grabar las voces y demostrar su combinacion multiple. Es absolutamente sorprendente. Me encanta allar este tipo de cosas que a uno mismo lo asombran aunque sean casi analogicas de donde se lo mire. Respeto mucho este tipo de videos tutoriales. Me costo entender por momentos. Pero eso no fue un impedimento. Si tuve que verlo mas de 5 veces lo hise y lo volveria hacer. Porque de esa manera lo pude comprender mejor.

This is probably one of the coolest videos I have come across about old synthesizers I would love to own one of these

paul macarney era un buitre hijo de puta '?

у нас до сих пор все такое
