you should put your monitor on the equalizer with the speaker on each side and have the midi tower where your monitor currently is. :)
Nice - that sounded awesome, even through my crappy laptop speakers.
Lazy Game Reviews Do DOOM E1M1 with this pile of MIDI goodness please & thank you. It'd certainly be a masterpiece to think about (I can't get the SC-55 version of it out of my head now). Also have Switch 5 on the MPU-104 go directly to MIDI THRU to allow you to play them all at once (albeit you'll need a bigger switcher). Or just press all 4 buttons at once on the switcher (my switcher allows you to do exactly that, & an off-the-shelf one like that should allow you to do that as well as the MPU-104).

This is pretty cool. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make this video LazyGameReviews!
it sounds like the teacher just wheeled in the tv-on-a-cart
I'm fucking ready to LEARN.
This comment is ridiculously funny. I immediately imagined a mid-90's Mavis Beacon-looking ass teacher in a ridiculous colorful dress only teachers ever wore, presenting the TV and a whacky zoom effect coming off the TV screen to the youths eyeballs.
LGR is the hero we didn't know we needed.
He may not have been the hero we wanted, but he was definitely the hero we needed.

Maybe it's a side-effect of growing up in technology-centered family and regularly going to computer swap meets in the 90's, but I hear this song and it just feels like a soundtrack to the optimism of the early 90's. I hear this, and look back, and think "you had no idea, at the time, the amount of progress you would personally see personal computing technology take in the next decade." At times I am envious of those that got to see the home-computer revolution first-hand, but I am also equally glad I got to grow up in such a turbo-charged era of tech growth.
makes me feel like watching star trek voyager for some reason
MrBluGruv I wish I experienced the late 90s.
very wholesome comment
This stuff reminds you of where we came from, and makes you wonder where we're gonna go next.
Not really, i wasn't born yet back then yet this just sounds like optimism
Sounds like the intro to some 80's sitcom that is just as funny as watching wet paint dry.
YEEAH!
Ichinin On the next "Thank Clint It's DOS" - Duke Nukem runs into the President's daughter. Will he be able to be trusted with such a top secret task?
Friday on ABC.
Sounds like the 5:00 news to me. Could this be Clint's new theme song?
I think it sounds like a News intro
It's like an old school JPRG theme tune to me
I thought it was gonna sound horrible like a hodgepodge but guess I was completely wrong.
The Magic of MIDI™
It sounds good.
It sounds like the best parts of each machine combined into one track, with a few more instruments showing up now and then.
That.... that actually sounds pretty darn good. I was expecting a cacophony, but I guess since all the modules are built for replicating MIDI accurately, it isn't. 👍
I was also surprised they sounded quite good together. But then again, we are hearing devices from the 3 top manufacturers of professional synthesizers. Sure they sound different, but none of them should make a mess of the song.
The important thing here is that the timing isn't off even by a bit. Nice.
They all sound different, but MT-32 aside all comply with general midi, so all should be playing the same instruments.
I guess the result isn't that different from an orchestra.
Yes, you might have 10 people playing the trumpet, all of which are using different trumpets with slightly different sound, but it's still 10 people playing the same note on a trumpet.
Makes sense.
Also, timing wise I think this is 4 independent recordings mixed in post.
So it doesn't tell us the machines are in sync with one another, just that they all play back the song at the correct tempo.
A like for using the word cacophony.
+KuraIthys "4 independant recordings mixed in post"
If you notice the video closely you'll see that's exactly what Clint did.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate all the shots, editing and syncing that went into this two and a half minute non-monetizable video? This kind of passion is what makes LGR such a great channel. Thanks, Clint!
I discovered canyon.mid when I was, what, 8 or 9 years old back in the early early 90's, and it BLEW MY MIND. How was this sound possible?! What is this magic?! Hearing it brings me straight back to my mom's living room. This song is in my long, long term memory.
Woah, this was awesome.
Oh geez. This is amazing. Canyon was the theme song of the "news" I used to record with my friends on camera in the 90s. I love this absurd pile of midi equipment and this song just puts it over the top. YES
And now I've got _Chip's Challenge_ on the brain. Thanks, Clint!
When the track began, all I could think was "I'm Cave Johnson. So we're between banks right now, so make the checks out to cash."
Yeah, this does have that Portal 2 vibe, doesn't it?
Butter + Bacon + Ham + Steak ... because we can, dammit! :D
And the Technics equalizer is the chocolate milkshake to wash it all down!
That's what she, Paula Deen, said
TheInsanemonkeyboy Haha, something like that! :D
You strongly reminded me of this...

Now it's a general MIDI sammich!
Do passport too! I loved listening to both of these when randomly browsing the windows directory in the pre-internet days...
Lol, right? Such procrastination back when
Haha yes! Passport was def awesome.
Passport is amazing... I like it just as much as Canyon if not more
Wow, the sound is so much fuller with all the units involved. Sounds way more pro than any one by itself.
This sounds beautiful. It sounds like childhood dreams and optimism of what life would bring.
Every morning without fail, I listen to this. It just makes my day bearable. Thanks LGR for the MIDI nostalgia!
This version of canyon.mid sounds amazing and very clean
10/10 Wood Grain again. Gotta love having MIDI boxes for games and stuff.
Welcome to the 6 o'clock news - this just in, the 80s are back!
Can you make fresh morning mixes everyday. For us to wake up to. We'd all appreciate it LGR
Haha, it's certainly tempting
I actually would enjoy some sort of lazy game reviews weather network channel
Im not sure if you guys down in the states used to have the weather network play cheesy sort of synthed music in mornings.
@@humvee2800 aw man I'd love something like that!!
This might be the single best rendition of Canyon.MID I've heard online. Maybe not 'perfect' or whatever but it has a serious punch and grandeur to it that the track honestly demands. It always struck me as a very optimistic and triumphant song, so to give it that weight really sells it. Amazing work!
This is the best thing I have ever seen, each one of your videos makes me shed a geeky tear.
This needs a Passport.mid version! The various MIDI devices had very different approaches to that sequence. :)
Nostalgia overload! That was fantastic to hear all the little differences coming together in one track!
Damn, this actually sounded amazing, kinda a big fan of midi. Thanks LGR for all your videos
Oh my god, this is the most interesting version of canyon.mid I’ve ever heard.
This made me smile so much. It's the smallest things! Thanks Clint.
Pure bliss. Those displays. Great recording.
YES. Thank you!!! I had been hoping you’d post this.
Okay that sounded completely amazing. They all fill out their respect frequencies really well.
Now that is a beautiful combined sound
Do onestop.mid
I can't believe it's been two years and I'm still coming back to listen to this.
This made my day. Thanks LGR! Forces combined = the power is yours!
That sounds amazing! Thank You! I needed this in my life!!!
This is the kind of music I listen to! Thanks, Clint!
he protec
he attac

@Ethan Ansell yeah, what the hecc ?
Wow! Great song choice! Loved this one since I found it on our Gateway back in 95.
This is legendary that I cannot help repeat this video.
been lookin for a video like this forever.
It can't be more nostalgic than this! Looks like I'm getting ready to watch Dallas! :)
You can't get better than that! Amazing!
This is amazing because the mixing of all four matches my memory.. When I replay canyon.mid in my mind it SOUNDS exactly like the downmix and kinda always has.
Beautiful sound!
I think I love your 'why the hell not' one-off videos as much as your more planned out ones.
you're doing god's work here man
You have made me so happy.
Sounds awesome!
Sounds amazing!
I'm amazed by how well these four play ball with each other; they actually add to each other rather than detracting
Best rendition of a Windows midi file ever!
This sounds incredible.
love it, please do more !
This is magnificient !
Dang, that sounds amazing!
What an epic tower of MIDI! I could play with those for hours.
Thank you for sharing this bit of MIDI nostalgia with us. Sounds like a James Romeo tune.
Feast upon this magnificence!
Please do PASSPORT.MID
Gorgeous!
They sounds great in sync
Full title of the song is "Trip Through The Grand Canyon" and it's by George Stone
Sadly the company behind it, Passport designs went bankrupt at some point.
This is beautiful
honestly... that sounds friken awesome o.o
This sounds really good
This is a thing of beauty rightchere.
That mixdown sounds wonderful! More videos with the MIDI Mountain like this, please!
Ooh! That sound! It's do tingling in my ears! MIDI nostalgia!
nice to see canyon.mid done properly, wonderful sound!
we all know that any of you who were alive in that period never were probably lucky enough to experience this
MORE MIDI GOODNESS :D EPIC SETUP !!!
Now THAT was way beyond cool! :)
That's ending reminds me a 90s shows! Great works!
Brings back some memories...
2:08 always pissed me off with the mess up in the tune
Our favorite China vlogger is here!
laowhy86 Agreed... everything else is perfect (and sounds amazing) and then you hit that and it just... speechless
Clicked the time index and *WUGH!* Ugh that's murder on the ears.
Are we sure it wasn't done on purpose? Sometimes a bit of a delay adds some dynamic. Ran through it once on time, then a touch behind. Gives it a "push" feel.
Ya ever heard of realism?
This actually sounds really good.
Sounds.... sooo.... beautiful...
This is pure glory !
It looked sounds very amazing
this is my ringtone. love you clint
Oh man so beautiful.
So this is what the new LGR intro sounds like, I love it!
Thats sounded pretty good, i didn't expected that.
The mt 32 definitely stands out with its iconic amazing 80’s sounds!!
So cool! I had completely forgotten about Canyon until seeing this video. BTW, I still occasionally use my Roland MT-32 and D-110 (in 2023!) because they both have certain unique sounds that I love.
You should do a ton of videos that are just retro games songs played by that awesome midi orchestra. I'd listen to that all day.
The best and only way to listen to canyon.mid
This is just awesome.
this is a video brought to you live with a live studio audience. is what i first got from this, it just has that 90s sitcom feel to it
The dramatic Enter key press at 0:28 introduces this mix perfectly.
It's like a 90s, dream team symphony!
I love this!
Best version ever!
that was fricken awesome
ALL THE MIDI!!
Beautiful
I love your midi mountain
Ok this really reminded me of the 80/90´s sitcoms. Good one. :)
Just terrific.
