This solar 50 will be playable in the museum btw :) LINK www.eltamusic.com/solar-50
I'll be doing a nice big update on the museum very soon! Its finally looking like a museum, sorting out the last room filling it up as we speak. So hopefully if the situation in the uk doesn't change it should be about before 2020 is out! but i'm not holding my breath with all of these restrictions coming back in for the winter! But yeah it seems right to share these syndesizers for people to play :)
Build your own megadrone! :- store.lookmumnocomputer.com/
I'm definetly going to visit your museum one fine day in hopefully not a too distant future :)
May one bring beer to the museum or is it strictly prohibited and one gets tossed out by an old grumpy museum security guard for doing so?
Words fail me, amazed once again by your wizardry
Are there synthesizers for people getting into synths? Like legit hardware synths?
Just make sure everything is pinned down!!
They need to send one to Hainbach!
Those black domes are actually black Fresnel lenses for PIR sensors like you get on burglar alarms, pretty cool idea using them though! Crazy design I love it.
oh wow really! thats quite cool! yeah genius idea
I'm wondering what happens if you shine a torch at them ...
Sam: …but that’s because I’ve got a thousand oscillator megadrone…
"The climax in a bread advert"
Yeah, forget THX, we all know the big drone from those bread ads 😂😂😂
Is that some UK thing? We don't have epic bread ads in Sweden...
@@Gameboygenius Hovis is epic. Every loaf makes this sound when you open the bag!
Next a wall of 100 Solar 50s synced together for 5000 oscillators
🤟
This thing is magical in every sense of the word.
Never thought I’d fall as hard for a synth as I do for a nice bass but I love it, definitely gonna be my Christmas present to myself this year.
I think this is the most commercial video I've seen you make, but I like it. The harmonic drone of oscillators in polyphony is just pure eargasm.
It seems like a truly unique synthesizer and you do a great job of demoing it. Thanks for the video.

LMNC: It takes an hour to tune.
Church Organ Technician: That quick?
Ha! As someone who regularly tunes a harpsichord, I chuckled when he said this.
My takeaway from this is that churches need to install megadrones instead of organs.
@@Benzene265 Why not both? ;)
All churches need: Symphonic organ (with different sounding stops: trompette, clarinette, reed etc.), Hammond Organ, Minimoog and the 1k VCO drone machine. Then I'd be going there regularly!
How about we just jettison the church part and make big halls with organs, mega drones, and comfy seats (not pews) instead?
Kudos to Elta to sending this in!! Looks really neat. Pleased to see it's in a metal housing as well; that doesn't happen much these days with electronic instruments. Never underestimate the value of synth pads... sequence them for easy background music!
I like how he holds synths like a Boombox
Lovely) right now I’m sitting at my solar 50 and now I have some ideas, thanks.
Actually u tune it constantly, but it’s very musical. Its amazing drone, but when u made sequence with beats it’s just incredible!
Actually the best review and practical use video I've seen on the Solar 50.
Cheers mate!
This thing is perfect for ambient electronic music. It can conjure some pretty amazing soundscapes, it just takes a fair deal of patience to use. Anyone who's gotten a new piece of gear should be used to that routine anyway. Definitely checking out those samples, I loved the sounds you were able to get out of the Solar 50.
I'm still laughing about you being pretty sure you're not their target audience.
Solar means for astronauts only!
hahaha well obviously i do tick most of the boxes! but the box that says "must not have a 1000 oscillator megadrone" i just cant tick that box honestly :(
@@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER Ah we all know you just need two or three good multi chorus effects and you've basically got a 1000 osc drone machine ;)
@@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER guess you need to build a million-oscillator Gigadrone to become the target audience then
@@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER It's probably just a matter of time until it becomes a 999 oscillator megadrone.
great video. love the sound and i have to say that we simple tune you made at the end was nice to my ears.
Saweet!! Congrats Mum!
Love that end demo!
Awesome man, I love ur vids
You: "Computers are for losers!"
Me: *goes to corner to cry*
Right? Nice job being classist.
Don't worry, it's edited on a computer and streamed from a computer to your computer, computers allow him to eat
@@joeydendron im watching on a computer.
@@paulwalsh6734 Peon. I’m watching on my custom Furby that has been modded to watch UA-cam videos.
Yeah, me too. Also, does the Solar 50 have a computer or microcontroller inside. Oh I see he is taking it apart now. Maybe we will find out. Wow it doesn’t look like the main synth has a controller at all.
That looks like so much fun.
awesome tech. Love what you do.
Really cool and unique synth!
Amazing video, completely unbiased which is refreshing to see. Subscribed and likes 😁
Fantastic video demo, again! I like my Elta Music PLL-4046, analog harmonic synthesizer. that turns your input signal into a square wave, and then multiplies or divides the frequency of that square wave, providing overtones and undertones from the original pitch, with extreme timbral intensity.
It's quite beautiful!
I imagine Moby ordered one of these immediately
Stick a dictaphone on it and mention half speed and Hainbach will be all over it.
... because everything sounds better @ 1/2 speed ...
Half speed is best speed.
@@DesertCow1000 Until you discover 1/4 speed.
Nice work. So pretty.
What an amazing synth.
Sometimes I’m hearing his episodes just via the iPhone speaker, but the sounds are so spectacular, that I fall from the chair just the same....
What kind of clockwork orange bread adverts are you watching?
👏👏👏
Thats a lovely little machine!
Pretty dope piece of equipment really.
Awesome, was hoping they'd send you one of these.
Loving the rack-32! Missing them from when gigs existed. 😅 - glad the museum's got one!
Boom thats proper off the chain . So so awesome . Just when you think you have seen it all, damn its so good I must swear !!!.
It just sounds so huge , like a cathedral organ .
PURE LOVE !!!!
Wow! so cool!
This Solar 50 thing is fantastic! This one and the Soma Lyra 8 are on top of my wish list!!!!
It makes a banging background
Those visible vactrols are things of great beauty - love them and might even have to try replicating them one day just for the beans of it :-)
I was thinking the same thing! Same with the contact mic; Such a simple addition that can really add to the sound. I will definitely be -stealing- (borrowing) that idea 👍
It's like a poor man's answer to thermionic valves sticking out of the equipment.
Very nice 😎🤓
I need this now.
that was a fine live man
Those LED bar graphs are such a nice touch, much better than arrays of 0603's or 5mm thru-holes
The engineers at Elta Music shed a tear when they saw that you decided to dismantle it.
8:59 - i love this.
Thats a clean 👌 board
Haha funny to discover this synth last week and BAM Sam has it already. (and you for sure are the right promoter for this russian beauty)
...it's spectacular! 🪐
Awww mate banging demo. One trick pony but it's pure gold. Totally sold. Good luck with the Museum. I will have to get involved in the patreon
Thats pretty cool
I would never have had the balls to take apart a (brand new) 1000 euros synth lol
Neither do I!!! But alas it's part of the process 🤣
Taking stuff apart is the easy bit. Putting it back together so it still works 🤯
@@simonhopkins3867 :D exactly right! it took me a while and some tears to get good at the next bit!
love you
Man... GASing so hard watching your demo of this, holy shit
In love!
Ah yeah so. Im pretty sure my first trip over seas will be to your museum. I can't wait.
wowwwwwwwww sounds awesome
I'm waiting for my Solar 50 and it's killing me! I need it now! It'll be nice companion for my Lyra-8. 😁
I have both. And it’s strange pair. They looking similar for the first time but they are very different in their philosophy. Solar 50 is a space and Lyra is evil. Like my first marriage.)
I still have no idea how to make them work together in any interesting way.
Damn same here, got a lyra8 as well. Looking at this as well, might buy.
the cords sound so much like "Brest" by Rone!
I love it
I built my first synthesizer in 1980 from a circuit in Popular Electronics. It was also my first printed circuit board. (When Radio Shack was the corner electronics store.) The synth was based on an LM324 Quad Op-Amp. I learned a lot as a sixteen year old in those days.
Those people were inspired by the Lyra-8 too for sure! It seems sort of like a Lyra-10 with 5 osc per voice and a bunch of other stuff going on
Before I watch this video (a treat for a Sunday evening), since I live at Folkestone, Kent I think I'm going to have to include visiting the Museum of Everything on my wish list. Now to watch this video. :-D
yeah! just up the road!
Sounds great, looks great. The lack of midi hurts, but not as much as the website for this thing.
I have seen Silk Road knock offs that seemed more legit.
The website to order these pretty much looks like "please send bank transfer to Russia and then we'll send you an invoice." The poor quality of the site makes it seem like an invoice might be all you end up getting for $1,000+
I'm sure the makers are lovely people. The thing looks and sounds awesome, but they have to find a better way to present how they are selling the thing because it just reeks of sketchiness and big scam vibes.
I mean this in the best of ways because I don't want to see a good bit of kit suffer from an easy to fix issue like a website turning away potential buyers out if fear it's not on the up and up.
I second this! It's basically a "trust me" contract. If you don't receive it, or it comes broken, what happens!?
Buy it from Perfect Circuit then. I've dealt with Elta Music about a defective product. They were very nice.
yeah the website is pretty trashy. I like you how get directly redirected to paypal to transfer 1200€+ to their account lol. no basket, no details, customer account shipping adresse etc whatsoever. just transfer the money thx 😂
They’ve got a PayPal account at least
They have paypal, paypal should have your back if it never arrives!
You and The Solar 50 Are Brilliant!🌈🎼🌎🌍🌏🌌🖖
WOW just WOW...
Essential viewing!
:D
Nice bit of gear.
Waiting on mine
I’m a bassist and I’m 100% sold. Already thinking about what deadwood to sell to buy one!
Есть же такие люди! Молодец парень! Здоровья и творческих успехов!
amazing o:
Reminds me of the classic Robyn Hitchcock stuff, back when he still worked with the Moog Source. Hope this ends up seeing use on your next EP.
3:44 "warranty has been sufficiently voided"😂🤣😂
Have preordered their next version the Solar 42 to show up in fall of 2023.
Mind blown
Wow, I was a bit on the face, but this video really sealed the deal for me.
This thing is insane.
Yes, I do need three Solar 50's.
You are a madman, a cool madman
Yes! Just what I need to make my bread advert more epic!
Hello! My husband introduced me to your channel and I also saw you play some music I don't know with whom, but it was amazing. I love what you do and would love to know, other than what you add to your UA-cam channel, if you play in a band? I've made some wonderful discoveries lately and I wouldn't be surprised to like your compositions or your accompaniments. If not, would you have any artists to suggest to me and please, nothing from the USA. I've been a Depeche Mode fan for 30 years now, I discovered Royskopp and others whose name escapes me, but I prefer the British side of the music ... I am from Quebec and in the times we all live right now, music is more than therapy for me. Thank you for following my request and continue, you are talented and mysterious at the same time. A perfect combination. Thanks again.
Got mine 3 weeks ago. I was lucky to be in first batch of preorders.
SOLAR 50 is much fun synth but lacks midi and I have no equipment to pass 10V CV into it (my half-modular synth with sequencer and MIDI outputs only 5V).
T'es un génie mec !
Alessandro Cortini would love this
8:15 You've got yourself an early Flume song their with those chords and sounds.
I wish I could see him perform live.
Oh my god! “The wall of lights” synth 😂
Good crud you actually did it. You got your knobs off.
I know basically nothing about synths, nothing but what I've seen binging some of these LMNC videos but I'll be damned if this isn't one of the coolest machines I've ever seen. Would love to be able to play with it!
The very first part sounds just like that Kendrick Drake Buried Alive Interlude.
Lordy. Finally something I desire more than a Lyra 8
I would legit watch like a 24 hour livestream of this
WOW
I need to get into this so I can create my own instruments 🤔🎛️😎
nice jam m8...
Can’t wait to fly in from the States and see the Museum of E V E R Y T H I N G!!!
Wicked.
Sold 😊
Given how complex the 1K osc synth is, could it be used to do specific stuff like imitating traditional instruments or making huge stereo pads ? That would be rad.
