@@willfomes406 TaDream did lots of soundtracks in the 80s. Two of my favorites are "Thief" and "Legend". The second is absolutely classic. Look up their filmography.
kenny everett, way back in the day, used to say 'and now for a digital sound effect'. Then there was a digital sound effect with... some vocoder! he used it brilliantly. Miss him and his jokes on radio.
I had access to one in the very early ‘80s at the same time that I had the Jupiter-8. The strings on that Vocoder were so perfect for it’s time and maybe today. Great presentation. I believe you have the best collection of vintage toys from the past. Awesome work!! Sumbi
Hello Claudio. Just to tell you. My first two keyboards were the Jupiter 4 and the SVC 350 Vocoder in 1979. We used the chorus sound mainly on covers of "Genesis". Greetings from Puebla, Mexico.
Literally just saw this yesterday out here in Shibuya This video just convinced me to purchase it today Hoping it’ll still be there first thing in the morning when I arrive 🤞🏾 Great video by the way… it’s done it’s job 👏🏾
Not only very highly interesting, recorded very clear and nice, but also amazing the way he talks! Why in hell people who speaks in english can't speak the same easy and clear way he does? Absolutely awesome! Congs!
Those square preset switches w/LED were so popular. Same switches as the Prophet 5 and I believe the new Dave Smith stuff is using those switches again. Thanks for the memories.
Kris Relph I just orderd the new Berhinger vc340 I have the roland fa06 and yamaha modx6 I love thim but there vocoders suck and the roland fa06 is way better than the juno stage.
Vangelis used the roland v330 as a main instrument for his legendary sound in the early eighties. The famous strings and choir sounds and vocoder a lot on the see you later album.
I managed to get hold of the MK1 with the big chunky rocker switches which I preferred & then had it fitted with Kenton midi. Had it a long time now though.
@@Tarkus_H Not, but it was the ARP Solina, i.e. the rare modification of Solina(about 100 of them were made).It had all the capability of Solina , and additionally mono synth section, like in Farfisa Syntorchestra.
One of the most favourite keyboards used by Vangelis into Antarctica, chariots of fire, See you later, The friends of Mr Cairo, Horizons albums... Now there is a lower cost V340 cloner. VP 550 was efficiency also.
I don't typically comment on you tube but your channel always intrigues me enough to watch. I'm sure it's already been asked but how in the world do you come across all of these vintage synth? I would love to see a 360 systems midi bass demo. Keep up the great work. Cheers!!!
you should throw together some songs on the end of your videos using the gear you are demonstrating to showcase how they can be used....and also show your production skills...
I know, this video is almost 2 years old. But what about a remake of the "Prologue" from ELO's "Time"-Album, which has extensive Vocoder-Elements. I would love to hear that from you. :-) P.S.: I love your channel. You really rock.
At 2:30 I felt like the very opening of modern talking you're my heart you're my soul song! At 2:55 you said a music name n also sang, It seems exactly like the you're my heart song, what you said at that?
Yes, I see what you mean. But to be honest I think the opening to that song is just some saw waves in unison though. Interesting nonetheless, since this setting probably used something like a saw wave then.
I love how the sound is so rich that it starts flanging by itself.
I think that’s the chorus
Almost 40 years later and it's still an impressive bit of equipment..
Oh Behringer, Behringer, Behringer!
Vocoder was used splendidly by Tangerine Dream on the track "Bent Cold Sidewalk" from the 1978 album "Cyclone". A very rare vocal piece by them.
Yes, super cool song
They did the soundtrack to the 1983 Sci Fi movie Wavelength.

“As you command Megatron.” -Soundwave
Vocoders were amazing to me from day 1 I heard them. It was like robots singing and grooving. Like Stevie Wonder, Level 42 and Daft Punk are doing.
Sony Kroket
I always thought this was done in mixing. Not that there were actual machines for this.
Queen
Damn, that Ensemble sounds so great!
man this synth give me goosebumps
a vocoder and especially this one with some spacey/dense chords will always stick in my ears. it reminds me of like space disco from 1978 I love it.
This reminds so much to ELO's Out Of The Blue !
A vocoder was used In mr blue sky
.....OK That is badass. I always wondered how people do that with their vocals.
Great video! I am so glad that I own an original VP-330. Lovely machine!
Ralph Baumgartl any chance you can record a few words for me for a fee?

Pitmirk You wouldn't get away with what he did on television today. Sid Snot and trying to catch a cigarette in his mouth... and mostly missing.
@@gorillaau or Cupid Stunt
@@annother3350 ahhh yes, the Cupid Stunts
That's THE best video I've seen showing off the VP330! good work

Greetings from Puebla, Mexico.
A large portion of the song Mr Blue Sky by ELO was done using one of these.
I love your presentations ... So happy 😁
This guy is great to watch ! Ace videos.
Love this machine. Especially the part at 1:21 😁
This sounds heavemly....80s retro space funk musics were blessed
This ensemble keyboard is so poetic...

Lovely rich analog sound.
The Roland VP-330 was heard in the song "The Voice of Q" (1982).
Queen "Radio Ga Ga,"

You make me love my Roland Juno Stage with its Vocorder😍
blah blah

Laurie Anderson - O Superman has heaps of this
Best outro ever!
Super cool video and nice chord
Beautiful and capable instrument.
Awesome vintage synth
If only ARP added a vocoder on the Solina String Ensemble.It would have given the VP-330 a run for itsmoney
2:10 what a sound!
Amazing👍👍👍👍
Goosebumps😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
The opening and closing pad to the tune "Suddenly" (Xanadu soundtrack) was this unit plus a Roland Space Echo and other FX.
That thing is so cool!
Love that sound. Eloy used vocoder a lot.
I managed to get hold of the MK1 with the big chunky rocker switches which I preferred & then had it fitted with Kenton midi. Had it a long time now though.
This is the same synth which was used to create the vocoder loop at the beginning of Dua Lipa's "Levitating" by her producer Stephen Koz btw!
Ok.. Quizás regresemos dentro de unos millones de años.... Fantástico!!!
Ur videos are way better than retro sound
EW&F Lets Groove 👍
Awesome !
WOW Great Job
"Amazing! This is a machine that I love!"
Kebu has this in his synth collection. He doesn’t use the Vocoder feature he uses it for the string sound that it has.
This sounds like the one that Vangelis used for his male choir on many of his albums in Nemo Studio. Wow!
Nice test! Thanks!
love the ending :)
4:30 sounds like Dogs by Pink Floyd
Exactly
That instrument was the Solina String Ensemble.

Stone stone stone stone stone....
Thats really cool
super!
Amazing❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The real thing!
By far better than any of today's software and digital emulators
We are the robots! Yeaaaaahhhh! :)

You should do an episode about Giorgio Moroder and the role of synths in early dance music.
You should do a video about the BBC Radiophonic Workshop!
Great! Great! Great!
What a great can!
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto
Yep that and The Best of Times
Domo arigato, Mister Roboto! :)
HHahahhhah
Tanks tanks tanks!!!!! :D
Do you know Yellow Magic Orchestra from Japan? They were using it on their tracks for example Technopolis.
"We can boogie on down. Down, we boogie on down. Down, we boogie on down. Down, we boogie on down..."
Spazio Jobim let’s groove tonight
I love you!
Have the Mk1 with rocker switches. Even nicer than the Mk2 in video, and I had it Midi retro-fitted.

70s keyboards are the best
Always wanted a vocoder
get a microKorg..
or VP-03
eso teric I impulsively bought a boss vo-1 for my guitar and I’ve been having so much fun with it
"Come running to me" :)
This demo would have been even more impressive in full stereo sound (especially for the Ensemble effect).
LOL that finale xD
you should throw together some songs on the end of your videos using the gear you are demonstrating to showcase how they can be used....and also show your production skills...
And Behringer is releasing one. :D
Same keyboard used in the song levitating Dua Lipa
Georgio Moroder come to mind...
Ahahah i was thinking bout kraftwerk and you sang we are the robots in the same moment
Nice
By your command!
They used the this on Transformers! Many electro artists also used it back in the day.. Like "Juice" by World Class Wreckin Cru
Dua Lipa - Levitating main riff as been made on this little beauty by the producer THE KOZ
chords at 5:09 are MAD 50s!!!
Okay that's cool
god damn i want that so badly
@3:21 it sounds like the bit from the original Tron movie that could only say "Yes" or "No"
I had one :)

At 2:55 he is specifying towards the Jean-Michel Jarre pads, not sure what song specifically it is though.
whæliin Pal, do you felt the same here at 2:55 like you're my heart, you're my soul from modern talking, the very opening bass piece!
Yes, I see what you mean. But to be honest I think the opening to that song is just some saw waves in unison though. Interesting nonetheless, since this setting probably used something like a saw wave then.
whæliin am saying about the bass notes, which plays after that strings!
Also dua lipa levitating. Go hear it
VAOVVVV ....SUPER
2:12 woooow
0:42 - It would be funny if you said "I think this goes back to... the beginning of time"
E=mc2 Giorgio Moroder
Late 70´s sound !
