"Bossa On The Beach" Lo-Fi Bossa Jam
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 кві 2024
- This song was inspired by the arrival of warmer weather and the lovely Bossa Nova beat supplied by the Casio MT-36. I decided to give it some extra tropical flare with the sound machine. Played and composed by Kyle Ussery in Colorado.
This sound machine has been kicking around the house for years unused, so I opened it up, and wired a 1/8th inch output jack to it. It has numerous sounds that will come in handy for lo-fi soundscapes.
Pedals Used (in order of signal flow, right to left):
Homedics Sound Machine, run into a separate channel on the Zoom H6
L.R. Baggs Align Series Equalizer
Boss OC-5 Octave
DigiTech Bass Synth Wah
Boss DD-3T Digital Delay
Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail
Boss TE-2 Tera Echo
Boss RC-1 Loop Station
Boss FS-5U Foot Switch
Recorded into a Zoom H6 in stereo.

I played a cheap Casio synth through guitar pedals for years and people were amazed by the synth sounds I made. Underrated setup for jamming
Indeed!
what do you recommend?
That makes total sense, since by the pedals you’re adding a bunch of LFOs, op-amps, filters, etc 😜
I played a very cheap Realistic Keyboard through a Boss ME-6. Really gave life to the synth. Crazy delay, lol.
@@jonathanheuschen2028 I bet that sounded awesome.
Boards of Canada would be proud! Gorgeous.
I need to check them out. Thanks for listening! 🎹✌️❤️
Definitely more like Casino v Japan and to that point this is very sweet
dude the use of the white noise machine is TOP tier. great jam, and good vibes
Thanks, gotta' love a good wave machine 🎹✌️
Ah, that was a lovely soundscape to drift away to
Sounds like old school 8-bit. Love it
Because it IS old school 8 bit ;)
I am nearly certain that that was my childhood keyboard, and likely catalyst from my pursuit of piano and music.
It definitely had a lot to do with mine. I have the "demo" song memorized. ✌️❤️🎹
YO I’m here to say I also had this keyboard as a child. I remember those buttons and sliders and for sure this loop.
@@Dudecool80085 MT-36 fan club!
I had a toy Yamaha of similar vintage, but I don’t think I’ll ever part with it. Even though I don’t use it _that_ often (definitely a few times a year, keep the components from tiring out), and it somehow sells for as much as a microKORG second hand. The fact it’s the _exact_ one I grew up with helps too.
@@kaitlyn__L now I’m jealous .
I feel like I'm playing animal crossing! Many dont understand the amazing sounds you can get from cheap keyboards! Amazing rig very inspiring.
i was thinking the same thing, i feel like i'm looking for seashells at the beach in animal crossing right now
this sounds like a C418 song
You made those pedals SING! Tastefully done piece of music, and goes to show that low budget or older, fading gear is no excuse for not making music. These old bossa nova sounds and effects remind me of Nobukazu Takemura's music from the 90s - such as Child's View (1994). Easy going, smooth, jazzy electronics.
Heavy stardew valley vibes. Thanks for the auditory escape!
Some parts of this sound like music out of World Of Horror. I love World Of Horror. Good stuff
Gives me Bulletin Mistery vibes
Takes a little bit to gain steam but boy was it worth the wait ❤ lovely work
I want to suggest you put big muff fuzz pedal from electro harmonix in there and drain its battery play it with low fuzz probably u will like the drained battery overdrive on synths. If you interested tho. Im not saying you need it. It’s just a great pedal for giving that old fuzz flame which is great with synths. Anyway dude amazing video. Really good setup. You keep in it real. Thats whats up. 🔥
Nice, I bet that’d sound sweet ✌️
could also use a voltage sag pedal like the JHS volture before it if you wanna run it off pedal power and get the same dying battery sound without having to run a real battery for however long
Amy pedal with a bias control is just regulating the power to the transistor giving the same or very similar effect. Loads have em! I'm a total fuzz freak having owned/tried nearly 100 probably but don't actually recall trying this with the muff circuit!
what does this do? i use a big muff on my guitar but have no idea what it would sound like on a synth 😵💫
@@bryans284accentuate harmonics and add clipping quite similarly to the guitar (so just like with guitar you probably want to avoid excessive overlapping sustain). Can be more subtle though, since most synths (esp toy synths) don’t have any of the inharmonicity of strings, and the triangle wave has few harmonics (but a sawtooth and square wave have plenty!)
Just excellent. I haven’t seen anyone use the bass synth wah as a straight filter sweep before, super creative and great vibe
✌️❤️🎹
Love me a good filter sweep
I do not know why, but this synthesizer reminded me so much of the track Autechre - Gnit
Love the sea sounds!! Genius
Definitely feels right on these warmer days, nice work
Thanks! 🌴✌️
I should never have sold my Bass Synth Wah. As a bass pedal it wasn't great, but as a synth pedal it would have some great uses
I’ve had that pedal for years and never thought to use it this way until a few months ago.
Too good, what a chill groove.
❤️🎹
I've got an old Casiotone too! same era, and I'm always asked why I keep it, when I have Korg and Roland synths... This is why! It's great for loft vibes!!
🎹✌️❤️
You gotta keep the toy keyboard you grew up with! Even though I’ve recreated (a lot of, still ongoing) the sounds of mine I still keep it. The recreations are way more “hifi”, the originals have noise and grit. Plus of course all the temptations to tweak the sounds rather than just accepting the presets as they come. It’s just a totally different vibe.
@@kaitlyn__L I totally agree
love the vibe of this one! gives me stardew valley vibes :)))
went looking for a post like this and was not disappointed.
This is why hardware is so much better. All of my best tracks were made using hardware compared to software. Absolutely brilliant!
Glad you dig! ✌️
These are so cool! I hope you keep making them
SIMPLY AMAZING
really nice!
Beautiful ❤
Thanks ✌️🎹
Perfect!
just beautiful tunes
Thank you! ✌️❤️🎹
That was a real treat, so nicely done!
✌️❤️🎹
this is actually beautiful, I love it !!!
🎹❤️✌️
This video inspired me to get into synths! Just bought a Casio VL-1
That’s awesome! Best of luck with it ✌️🎹❤️
Sounds great, love the setup!
✌️🎹❤️
So nice! I love the attack on the chords and the (wave machine) thing is really cool!
Glad you dig it!
That was awesome!
🎹✌❤
so lovel!
I like it! This is awesome musical minimalism.
✌️🎹❤️
Ah, love the setup.
✌🎹❤
cool stuff - love it!! A clear example of how every guitarist or bassist's effects board represents a modular synth.
✌️❤️🎹
I love it！
Thank you!
This is so cool
🎹✌️❤️
basically modular !
Aphex twin-esque sounds around 6 min. Very cool!
✌🎹❤
Awesome stuff man
Thanks!
Cool sounds 😊
Thanks!
Loved this! Amazing use of these pedals. I want an old Casio now haha
Glad you dig it! Old Casios are fun 🤩
That's one awesome little rig you got there. But of course it's who is at the helm. You are amazing. 🎶💯
Glad you dig it!
that was nice
✌️🎹❤️
cool
My first keyboard! I forgot I used to have one.
Mine too, this exact one in fact!
Holy shit!
TrimPath: Mum can we have modular synth?
Look Mum No Computer: No. We have Modular synth at home.

..a sound source and a few good pedals can do the magic..just git me that tera echo and its so awesome..the boss reverb is awesome too..
✌️🎹❤️
Yep
😍😍😍
❤❤❤
Neat song! That digitech looks like it was in Nam
The digitech had a rough decade or two. ✌️🎹❤️
thats it
you have to release it
That Casio
So beautiful! I love my algorithm sometimes. I’ve recently tried to put something together to play at home like this. I play bass and guitar and mess around with tons of pedals. I found an old keyboard I had as a toy when I was kid and did something similar but wasn’t satisfied.
What are some essentials to this type of rig you’d recommend?
Nice! Reverb and Delay is a great place to start.
souvlaki space station
This tune could be used in the Animal Crossing soundtrack.
✌️❤️🎹
rain world
can totally imaging getting chased by 7 lizards and 15 king vultures with this playing in the background
How did you get so much clarity from the synth? Did you clean it out? I have an old Casio and would like to use it for this type of thing. Also, did you just use the headphone jack for output? I have a 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch adapter that I’ve tried using.
It puts out a suprisingly clean signal. I do roll off some of the treble to minimize noise.
any way u can put this on streaming?
This jam makes me want to wear a vest with shoulder pads
🎹❤️
4:36 here
Ive tried the old casio through pedals thing but could never get it to sound good. A lot of the time the signal of the synth seemed unmodified by the pedal or weird signal levels or other weirdness.
Awesome jam my friend?? How are you using that FS-5U?? seems like bypass or pause right??
Thanks! The FS-5U stops and/or erases the loop.
Hello! Great sounds here. Quest: What video set up did you use for recording this? What camera/mounts ect?
Thanks! I film with a Panasonic GH-5 mounted in the rafters and a ring light mounted above. The GH-5 is tethered to the computer via USB.
is there a way to run a board like this on a synth and guitar at the same time? to layer and add both instruments? i
this was awesome loved it
yeah get a mixer
Thanks! You could definitely do that, all you’d need is a mixer. There are a few different ways you could route the signals.
Bossa nova + Mario bross
✌️🎹❤️
is this on spotify?
In the works, stay tuned! ✌️🎹❤️
Can someone remerber who did this prior to Yo La Tengo?

can i sample this?
Sure, as long as you credit me! ✌️❤️🎹
Don't mean to be a pedant, but this isn't technically "bossa" as you don't have the correct rhythm.
This is the “bossa” drum beat on the keyboard. We should probably let Casio know 😎
Waste of time my dude. Get an MPC put a keyboard or two on it, and learn how to fly.
respectfully, shut your corny ass up let people make music how they wanna make it. this shit is so dope. some people just got a ton a guitar pedals laying around
Different sports. Analog knob tweeking with limited options is the game here. No digital screens allowed on this tropical island.
Programming music vs playing music.
@@jerryrose9472 I get it!
Us, Oldtimers try to help when we can (in our way). Would never want you to be locked up in a Manhattan apartment for 10 years searching for the perfect beat. That endeavor produced, no income. Be well
Negative comments like this are a sign of insecurity. If you feel bad about the things you create you shouldn't go around trying to bring down other people
It just you look bad and calls attention to the fact that you don't like what you make
Or even worse, alludes to the fact that you don't make anything at all...
My favorite patches on those casios are the Jazz Organ ran through a vibe pedal w some verb.
I’ve been wanting a vibrato and/or tremolo pedal.
