Lols...
I think just about every single sound except vocals in this cheesy tune from the M1
Yeah I saw Kung Fury yesterday. It was pretty cool. Now the eighties are back for reals... and the nineties too.
Yikes. I never heard that before. It's awful!
OT as in Over the Top!?!? This is the new funniest shit I have ever seen on YouTube!
"Don't Hassle a Hoff 9000."
I'm a big fan of this genre especially from the mid 90s to early 2000s.
I actually meant Off Topic, but yeah, it's totally awesome.
Another great dialogue:
"What age is this?"
"The viking age"
"Oh, that explains the laser raptors"
Epic.
You know what made the M1 sound like the 80-90's? All the lazy ass preset browsers that played them. When a new cart of sounds came out there was a bum rush to get it worked into the next album to preserve some sense of being original. As in, it was a widely made joke that the Korg engineers might be able to claim producers credits on most pop albums of the time. Fact was there was a lot of synth power there if you could work with combi mode, which was difficult, so few tried and fewer famous succeeded. But damn did it make everyone and their kids a keyboard player anyway.
Don't forget Bon Iver's Hornsby-inspired album closer, with original M1:
To be fair, most of the presets in the iM1 came after the 1980s, since the '88 original only had about 300 patches (the Nintendo version is a more strictly faithful emulation of that one). The KLC and iM1 banks are even post-2K, of course, but I know this isn't really the point when we characterize its sound, since those waveforms probably stem mostly from that original incarnation, and the sounds still overwhelmingly recall that general era.
I might be missing something super obvious but how to you turn up the volume?
I have sunrizer and all arturia synths and to me, this one seems significantly quieter compared to the synths I already have... Any ideas?
Maybe its not so much the sounds, as what you do with them that counts?!
This.
"ooh, listen to that Stradivarius!" "nah, not my cupatea...sounds dated...that thing is 300 years old!"
A good drummer on a hollow log...may be kinda prehistoric but still sounds great today!
Or how about good ole' Keith on his '53 Tele, playing through his Fender Twin, SN# 00003...never gets boring!
Another synth that sound like the 80s . I'll pass.
If you play 80's styles it sounds like 80's. If you play modern styles or depending on your chain in AB it sounds great!
I agree with this. Nothing sounds like the 80s by the time I'm done with Fluxing it, BUT so much of what we do (on keyboards anyway) is motivated by the sound that comes along and lights something in our head/heart, so if running through a bunch doesn't do it for you, well, it doesn't do it for you. No right or wrong answer on this one.

The problem with that anology is that violins are usually identical in construction and tone to those created 300 years ago - as are logs. Similarly Fender Telecasters haven't changed much either.
Synths on the hand have gone through a number of distinctive periods - the experiemental blips and swooshes of the 60's to the fat moog's of the 70's. Then digital plinkiness of the 80's and sampled joy of the 90's and beyond. Obviously there's been more going on than that but you get the picture.
If you construct a track entirely using iM1 80's sounds, then you're going to have a helluva job making it sound like it wasn't recorded during the 80's. And mucking about with the patches and putting it through a 2015 FLUX FX box is cheating, Johnny.
Don't tell that to a violinist or guitar player!
}:^)
There are no rules; all things are permitted.
And there's no cheating allowed in music!
The problem is that one of the easiest things to do when you're looking for a sound is step through presets. I think a lot of us are thoroughly tired of the presets of lots of popular synths.
But even looking back on when the DX7 (for example) was brand new, there were people doing crazy stuff that was truly unique. Like how Danny Kortchmar made that crazy bass.
“I took it home and started messing around, and that’s what you hear on All She Wants To Do Is Dance. It’s this sample-and-hold thing. I slowed it way down and put it through a Marshall amp. I made a demo of it in about 20 minutes, played it for Don, and he said, ‘Great. Let’s cut it.’"
I never heard exactly that sound again, but it was so new that everyone knew that it was from the DX7. I bet people fiddled with the DX7 for ages trying to get that sound while never realizing that the sound was slowed. Those kind of studio-made signature sounds are the bane of cover bands, just like the double-speed guitar in "Get Down Tonight." Never sounds right live.
Using the 80's presets it sounds like an 80's synth. The cheating I alluded to was a response to saying it doesn't sound 80's if you put it through FLUX. Nothing wrong with that, if I buy it I'll probably do the same, but the presets, without tweaking sound like Phil Collins with his jacket sleeves rolled up to the elbows.
Embrace the twinkle, resistance is futile.
I agree. Whenever i hear pianoforte on a track, it always sounds dated like it was recorded by mozart or something.
I think we got the same taste.
Yes! I'm also a fan of Massive Attack and Nightmares on Wax among others.
