    That synth sounds so crystal clear, thank you for the demo!
    I'm a bit worried about your keyboard, its stand is so shaky, hope it doesn't fall...

    Bought one of these in a stock clearance sale (UK) in 2002 for £99. Realised it was unique but insignificant in appearance!

    @TheMindOfPat There's good news & bad news. "Fseqs" are 100% configurable, a bunch come built-in, and you can add more. They work like 128-step envelopes, 32 of them per sequence. Best way to describe it is like a fancy vocoder that uses a fixed sample as a modulator.
    Bad news: frequency is quantized rather heavily, so you hear stepping sometimes, you can only edit from a PC, and it's not trivial to turn spoken words into an fseq. But some 3rd party stuff exists. Sound Quest is one I know of.

    @Stickyfox: Nice video. By the way, it's actually 33 envelopes of 512 steps each: 8 envelopes for voiced frequencies, 8 for voiced amplitudes, 8 for unvoiced frequencies, 8 for unvoiced amplitudes, and a fundamental pitch envelope. Indeed you hear artifacts when the frequency changes from one frame to the other, and timing for playback seems to be unstable. You can configure a fixed frequency bandwidth per formant, but the sound quality could probably be improved if this could be linked to envelopes as well. I've made a software implementation of fseqs with bandwidth envelopes for the pc (borrowing sourcecode of the klatt synthesizer), but it doesn't have the fancy fm routing, filters and effects processor that the fs1r has. For vocals it sounds more "realistic", but it doesn't beat that cool digital sound that you get from the fs1r. Maybe it's that bit of low tech grind and the unstable playback that makes me love the sound of the fs1r :)

      Thanks for fact-checking. Truth is I have never messed with a fseq, and I'd really like to try it. Shame about the software though; it's the only thing stopping me. The editor I have is for mac I think, and it's for an outrageously antiquated version.

    I keep meaning to ask someone who knows, how configurable are the formant modulators? Like is the speech effect something you can actually add to have it "say" whatever you want as long as you're willing to spend the time? Or do they have a couple presets and that's it?

      All the sounds are FS1R; the YS200 is just the keyboard controller.

      I know! It's awful... I bought mine from Mars Music when Yamaha discontinued it. $399 down from $1200. They had two in the store and asked if I wanted both, and I was like, "nah, one will do." Sigh...

    • @this_connor_guy

      Apparently the price increase is due to the Yamaha Montage, which does similar stuff to this.

    Thanks for this! Would've liked to hear a bit more experimentation with the drum kits though. Is it possible to make full drum kits in one patch?

    • @stickyfox
      @stickyfox  7 років тому +1

      I can give it a try! IIRC the drum kits are kind of a kludge. You can only have 4 timbres per patch, so lots of them are kicks, snares, and lots of toms. The Simmons-ey ones are pretty good. But there's always multitracking right?

    Is it hard to edit this module? Is there any editor for PC or Mac?

    • @jamesmurphy7193
      @jamesmurphy7193 9 років тому +1

      ***** Yes! It's very difficult. The FS1R uses two synthesis techniques, FM and Formant Shaping. FM is just exactly like the DX7 with two more operators (and in fact is compatible with all DX7 patches) and a little more fanciness in the FX and control routing. Formant shaping is a whole nother animal though; it uses very complex sequence envelopes that are (generally) derived from audio samples. All of the software out there is very very old, but there are still people using these things. I have an editor for the Atari ST, but my emulator doesn't emulate the MIDI port. :(

    I have the impression that Sound Engineering was better back in the days this wonderful machine was produced. Nowadays there are synth workstations that cost up to 5 K and don't sound that good. Something is definitely wrong.
