Here are some experiments I did in trying to mimic the style of W. Carlos' synthesizer technique and style of timbres. Carlos was using a 1960's era patchable modular Moog synthesizer with a different architecture than that of the Alesis Andromeda synthesizer. Each one has some advantages and disadvantages over the other but both use analog circuitry.
This video includes excerpts from 3 different Bach pieces. All are played by hand on a velocity sensitive keyboard, most of it one monophonic passage at a time, and overdubbed onto multi-track.
Be sure to check out other related videos in my synthesizer series, and check back now and then as I will be posting more in the near future.
After Youtube went through their recent video formant conversion process, they converted the high quality stereo audio in my videos to muffled, lo-fi mono garbage. I need to figure what to do, but in the time being, below are links to the original audio files.
