    Yamaha SY22 Music Synthesizer (1990)
    All sounds in this track are SY22 factory presets, including the drums. The SY22 was launched in 1990 and is effectively a hybrid of Yamaha's outgoing FM synthesizer technology with their new AWM sample-based engine, with 2 FM operators and 2 AWM oscillators. A joystick provides vector control to blend between the chosen waveforms in the patch in different ways, either by affecting their volume (Level) or their pitch (Detune).
    Patches used:
    P25 ICE FIELD
    P28 THRILLER
    P74 VCO SYNC
    P62 SYN BASS
    P23 SAD ANGEL
    P27 VECTASEQ
    P77 GROOVER
    P32 PINPIANO
    P14 DIST GTR
    P81 SUPERPAD
    P18 NOSTROMO
    P82 PROPHECY
    P88 DRUM KIT
    Programming new patches via the front panel is a fairly thankless task, but there is a good editor out there: ctrlr.org/sy35...

    Great, I have a Yamaha TQ-5 somewhere at home, the sound equivalent of the SY-22, you inspired me to try it after many years ;))

    Awesome. Time to pull SY22 out of storage. Thank you for inspiration.

      You're welcome! The vector joystick makes it worth rediscovering, I think. I only really scratched the surface here

    Hey man, love your channel, so creative! I've been coming over several times to find some great sounding 80s synths (even if they are very limited), to snatch affordably for the day that I'll have enough time to make some music with them. I enjoy listening to your tasteful tracks, if at any time you feel like somebody should be drumming to some of your tracks on authentic 80s vintage e-drums let me know! ✌

    gnarly ! I tried to buy a DX-7 off of craigslist yesterday...but it was broken when I arrived.

      That's annoying. Hope it can be fixed? My SY35 was sent to me wrapped in a couple of plastic bags, so it's a miracle it wasn't in pieces by the time it showed up. One person's treasure is another person's junk!

  • @kenzieprice6745

    Now that you have had some time with both of the SY vector models, how do you compare the two?
    Do you like one over the other? Are they different enough to justify having both?

    • @alfonsemusic
      @alfonsemusic  Рік тому +2

      I would say that the SY35 has the edge. It had some upgrades on the SY22, but also i found the presets more interesting and varied, with some cool vector possibilities. You could probably justify both if you only ever used the presets, but for your own custom patches the 35 on its own is all you'd need.

    Totally timeless, above all the cinematic ending: Most likely in 100 years that could still work as a movie score.
    P. S.: It's me Minoxidil (If you remember). Recently I changed to my real name instead of permanently using a hair restorer's designation. 😂😂😂

    I had an SY22, what a horrible MIDI implementation. Utter garbage, IMHO, although I produced several albums with that as a MIDI controller..
