    In the beginning of the video I added a little reverb from a Lexicon MPX500 on the drums, all other sounds came directly dry from the CX2.
    Wersi WERSI MATIC CX2 is a programmable rhythm machine / accompaniment from Germany.
    The CX2 has preset rhythms and is also programmable. The drums are digital 8-bit samples of real drums. The CX2 It's micro processor controlled, but it has analog sound generation for the accompaniment. A kind of "solina string ensemble" is also on board. Tape interface for storing own patterns onto tape - like on analog synths as Korg Polysix or Roland Juno-60. The Wersi CX2 is the successor of the CX1, which is essentially the same, except the drums. The earlier CX1 has fully analog drum sounds, whereas the CX2 uses digital samples.
    The CX2 was also included in Wersi organs of the day. It's similar to the "Böhm Digital Drums".

    Вот это самоиграечный комбайн! Для 85го это наверное был взрыв мозга, да ещё с таким мощным звуком.

    The slow-rock tempo(?) at 2:12! So very uncanny for being 1985, so many 70s images flashes in front of my eyes, and then I didn't even render any memories in that decade.

    Supergeil! I would think these things would have sold like crazy here in Deutschland in the 80s and 90s. Most of what you've played I've heard hundreds of times in fest tents and on Rhein riverboat cruises. Und es war wahrscheinlich billiiger als ein Festzelt-Partyband zu engagieren.

      I'm sure I've heard them too. Once a year in the 80s my mum would make us do a 24-hour coach trip to go skiiing in Austria and they would play music like this all the way

    It's kind of odd how those crunchy drums sound very much like they are from 1985, but the box they eminate from looks like it was built at least a decade earlier. From the pictures alone I was expecting the drums to sound like they came from a Bontempi organ from 1975, so I was pleasantly surprised that it featured quite hard-hitting 8-bit samples.

    • @AnalogAudio1
      @AnalogAudio1  2 роки тому +1

      In fact, the predecessor of the CX2 was the CX1, which came out few years earlier. It looks the same, it's identical, except for one thing: the drums are fully analogue! I also made a video with the CX1, check it out!

      @@AnalogAudio1 I found and watched that video straight after posting my comment on this one. I guess the company realised it needed to update the drum sounds, but didn't have the resources to modernise the keyboard/box itself. It has a certain amount of charm. Does it have 29 keys? There can't be many keyboards that have 2 'and a bit' octaves (we seem to have reached a standard of 25 or 37 keys on mini-keyboards these days) but I quite like that form factor.

    wersi defenitely were stuck in the 1970s even by 1985 , you should have expected fm sounds to accomp the digital drums , still lovely

    • @AnalogAudio1
      @AnalogAudio1  3 роки тому

      Well the CX2 was an updated version of the CX1, which was fully analog. Just the drums were updated with a new drum card. 1985 analogue was still common.

    I have the CX 1 with the analog drums and I think only this board/card is different.
    All the other sounds are identical

    Roland and SE should team up to make a groove box like this, but analog not bull crap pcm and virtual.

    Not analog, has PCM. CX 1 was analog.

    • @AnalogAudio1

      Yes, the drums are PCM, the other sound generators are analog, see my video description.
