Kebu – Sticky strut (Yamaha SY-1 demo)

Text from the video :

  • This is a song I composed demonstrating the sounds of the Yamaha SY-1 synthesizer. Since it is a monophonic analog synth, no chords can be played. The song was made by multitracking to a computer. No other effects were used than a Roland Space Echo and channel EQ. The drums are programmed using a drum sampler. For mixdown, the tracks were subgrouped and transfered to a Tascam 38 8-track tape recorder. The song was mixed in realtime with an analog mixer to a stereo cassette deck. EQ and limiting was used for the final digital master.
