  • Recently, I was fortunate enough to see one of my favorite bands play live: Information Society. I talked with keyboardist Paul Robb about some of the hardware used on stage, and in this video, tour through the gear used by the band to reproduce their hits when on tour.

    Zeke sent me a message about his rig, after seeing this video: "I’m using circuit bent analog video fx units, the spray painted one was custom made by tachyons who is a amazing analog video artist. Also in the rats nest of cables are many feedback loops that I run into the v4. Thanks for checking out my rig, I really try hard to create a unique visual experience for every show."

    In the early 90's my bandmate and I used to play as a duo and used my SY99 to run our RY30 drum module. We always had bass and drums when humans were not available! We actually opened for America (yes, Ventura Highway, America) using this setup and a bass player. There went my 15 minutes of fame! Great to see tech being used on stage.

    I’m really glad I came across your channel. You’re clearly totally switched on with tech, industry standard stuff and life as a muso. But, above all you’re a top guy, humble, non pretentious and generous with your videos (I’m a psychotherapist, I know about such stuff). 😂
    I would like to see you play more and know more about your original work.
    Keep doing it man!

    Even with all the notes written on the instruments and consoles I wonder how people manage to do all this stuff live. I am totally awed.

      You just practice, over and over and over until it's second nature.

    Thank you for sharing this closer look! So much going on up on that stage. I saw them for the first time at SummerFest in Milwaukee recently and was so impressed with their sound and performances!

    Really cool video!! Wow!! While watching you film and describe their setup I couldn't help but cringe and think (and this is road reliable???) LOL!!! I have Gig Performer that I'm "playing around with" and thought man..... these guys could use it really bad.... But... like the Cubase guy said.. "It's what I know" :) Hey, whatever works!!!! Thanks for sharing!!

    Nice. If they had come to Vancouver I would have gone in a second. I was a fan from from their first album, but Hack blew my mind when it came out. Peace and Love kind of made them fall out of view, but their recent work has been really cool. Shout out to Images In Vogue and Strange Advance too. Images In Vogue was a massive gateway for me as a very young Canadian teen into darker electronic and industrial music, but maybe that was Cevin Key's doing.

    • @ScottsSynthStuff

      Check out "Hello World" - I think it's their best and strongest album.

    Noticed the player with the Kronos did not have crib notes on paper. Its Set List “comment” feature solves that problem for me as well!

    • @ScottsSynthStuff
      @ScottsSynthStuff  Год назад +2

      That's James Cassidy, he only very occasionally uses the Kronos, most of the time he is playing bass.

    the JUNO-Di enables direct playback and control of backing tracks from a USB key ... wonder if he was triggering those from the microkorg

  • @2663139
    @2663139 Год назад

    It does not use the vocoder in microkorg. These are phrases from the voice synthesizer on the Amiga Commodore computer. They are recorded in the backing track.

    • @ScottsSynthStuff
      @ScottsSynthStuff  Год назад

      I think you might be right. Most voice synthesizers (not just the Amiga) sounded like that in the 1980's.

    We’re were the video screens the VJ was performing on located? Was the VJ controlling the light show as well?

    • @ScottsSynthStuff
      @ScottsSynthStuff  9 месяцев назад

      They were played on screens throughout the venue - this venue didn't have the backdrop video wall that they usually have, which is where the video would normally be played. The lights were run from a tech at front of house.

    There's no way the vocoder sound comes from this Microkorg. That sound is not even a vocoder. It is a speech synthesizer and it is a shame Paul is trying to make the audience think he is really singing that. I also think none of his sounds are generated by this old entry-level Juno. He might be using it as a midi controller or just to pretend he is playing pre-recorded stuff.
