Hey David, this is Hamza (the guy who sent you the keyboard).
I've read almost every single comment and seeing that people are getting nostalgic about it makes me so happy that I sent it to you. Love your videos and keep up the good work!
Dude, that was so nice of you ❤
Hamza brother! This alone make you a legend already!!
First of all, so awesome that you sent him this keyboard and we got this video out of it, thank you so much!
Second of all... I saw that your name was turkmedic1570, and I just have to ask now... do you know the turkish rock band Replikas? They have one song called "Deli Halayı", and while I was watching the beginning of this video, I instantly recognized the drum sample they used of this keyboard at 0:30, my brothers used to listen to Replikas in the 2000s and 2010s when I was still a kid, and I love their music so much, so I got so excited to hear that little drum pattern!!
Danke schön
I had one as a kid and I still own it!!
I love these old, somewhat crappy, instruments. Being creative with these type of instruments is always fun
I wouldn't call it crappy. When I had this as a child, I lived it. As an adult there have many occasions in which I wished that I still had it.
Thank you for the trip back to my childhood!
The sound is almost like what's used in 80-90s Japanese rpg games. Far from crappy.
I had one in black..
Crappy instrument ? This was made creatively and well thought out
Can you search ( dotar ) on your google search, please. Then, you will be closer to the truth.
I have memory problems, so I didn't remember having this. Until he removed it from the box and the sight of it jogged my memory. Wow, what a wave of nostalgia.
right . memory lane is awesome
I don't have memory problems... that I remember. But mee too!
Same here, but I had it in black with the pink power button
I also have completely forgotten that I had this in my childhood! And I actually loved it back then.
nothing beats that feeling
I got this as a young child from my grandfather who was a piano tuner. It was a way to get me into playing piano as a small child. My grandfather just passed yesterday at 94 yrs old. I will be burying him with it as it's a symbol of something he loved that he wanted to share with me. I grew up loving playing music because of this little thing and my grandfather's love.
Today we buried him. I put a note rolled up in the battery compartment thanking him for the gift of music. ❤️
Take care man, that was heart-warming. @@stevenhoule1866
Sorry for your loss brother. May he rest in peace.
I hope he plays it wherever he goes next ❤
I hope you get to play it together again some day
In 1982, a German band called Trio (Zam in Germany) had an international hit with “ Da Da Da”. It used the Casio VL1, but you can play it perfectly using the VL10. If you like minimalist Kraut-rock from the ‘80’s, this is the motherlode.
I recognized the beat at 0:32
IIRC it was featured in a car commercial, VW I think.
Ich lieb' dich nicht, du liebst mich nicht (aha)
This is what you got to know
Loved you though it didn't show
I have the extended 12" vinyl. 😅
@@pixelrancher I remember it from the radio. An "a-ha erlebnis" as they say.
The initial beat actually has been used in the 80s in a super successful German new wave song called „Da Da Da“, by a band called Trio. According to Wikipedia it was released in 30 countries and sold 13 Million copies!
It was a VL-1 not a PT-10.
@@Jollygodit sounds very similar tho
@@schulbus13 Same chip!
Ha! I IMMEDIATELY recognized that as well!
It is also used by Shawn Lee in the nerd's theme song for the Bully videogame OST
I once actually met Mr. Casio in Tokyo. The year was 1981 and what was interesting was that he had 12 fingers and I immediately was able to feel the power of his brain waves emanating through the environment, thought the air, through the walls... . I remember I engaged him in a discussion on Bach and he quickly became silent and was clearly heavily consumed by his own thoughts and at that very moment the lights began to flicker and the ground beneath our feet literally began to shake.... it was a scary but fascinating incident.
This thing was EVERYWHERE in Spain when I was little, it's incredibly nostalgic for most people here.
Zenzuke eres mi Casio PT, te veo en Domestika, te veo en Twitter y te veo en comentarios de YT cuando entro en la madriguera de conejo de videos de musica
Yo tenía el PT-82 que tenía cartuchos con canciones. Ah, y también tengo tu curso de AE xd
WAS THAT THE SOUND OF 87?!? 🐻
YOOO ITS GOT THE DEATHCONSCIOUSNESS KIT! The little beat is used in one of my favourite songs from one of my favourite shoegaze post punk albums. Song Holy Fucking Shit 40,000
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT AS SOON AS I HEARD IT
@@desmondthemoonbear4561 same wtf im so glad someone else noticed
David: "I doubt I'll ever use the beats".
The entire music industry: "Mmmmmm lemme hold those beats for you 👀"
the first few notes you played with the pedals immediately made me nostalgic for the celeste music. it sounds so good!
Same for me but with minecraft!
@@ecs300Lena Raine, the composer of the Celeste soundtrack, also wrote some of the newer themes for Minecraft!
@@InventorZahran wow, didn’t know it was that Lena Raine, haha 😆
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Your channel is special. So viscerally polite and real. I always always always look forward to your new videos and they're an immediate click for me.
Thank you so much for what you do! ❤
There's so much truth in your words, buddy :)
I found this channel just over an hour ago and have gone down the most wonderful musical abbit hole. Your content is incredible, I'm in love with every single video. It's all so welcoming and inviting, and there's this fantastic homey quality about it that just makes messing around with gear so approachable and relaxing. I never thought watching someone opening packages and simply enjoying the process of using some new (old) equipment could be so entertaining. It's also so informative and interesting, like understanding VHS technology, or tracking down the factory for old kids synths from the USSR. It's awesome! Keep up the great work because this stuff is truly a joy to watch.
The rock 1 preset drum beat was used in a song from one of my favorite albums, deathconsciousness. Pretty cool
Hell yeah
i am so glad to find such cultured people here
Your videos are an amazing invention. It's amazing how you create a mesmerizing situation in every video. I have no doubt that one day you will be in incredible places. You are loved, David.
This is serendipitous for me - I found your videos a few months ago and it inspired me to dig out my two childhood synths for my children to play with. They've gotten really into it and I've gotten them some upgraded hardware but the one they started with was a red PT-10!
Ok if kind random people just send you fun things, I might as well send you a Dremel tool -- your polymer hacks will be less smoky and more precise. 😎 Wonderful addition to your library of inspiration -- tx David!!
I played with this as a child. When you started the 'drum' beat, my memories flooded back.
I love it when you do things like this. It makes me smile and takes me back to the 80s. Thank you so much for all the work you do.
This is super cool! I love how these old (and, at first, seemingly trashy) instruments can be used to create such expressive sounds. That's what I love so much about your channel.
Wow David you’re continuing to be one of the most valuable people in the small music artist world. Thank you so much for everything you do!
Your videos are always such a joy to watch - I haven't been making music recently, but this reignited some of the inspiration that I've been missing lately.
This is such an incredible video, and is really inspiring me to get more into synthesizers. I loved how simply you went over your whole process. I found it really clear and de-mystifying on how to work with equipment (especially modifying the keyboard and setting up your sampler). Thank you!
Thanks for the shout out! Was fun nerding out on sound chips. Anytime.
A couple of months ago I was walking past one of our local charity shops (I think they're the UK equivalent of thrift stores in the US), and there in the window was the PT-10's predecessor - a Casio VL-1 - complete with the soft case and instructions. I bought it, and immediately took it home to show to my better half, who is a piano teacher. She absolutely loved it, and insisted I make it my gift for her imminent birthday. She's now shown it to all her students, explaining how it was the first truly affordable synthesiser.
I love this story
Man, i don't know how do i losing your videos, i like it so much. Thank you for your creativity
This is incredible... The audio output is crazy, bravo !
Man, those samples sound absolutely gorgeous run through the dictaphone. It’s so rich.
I still have my Casio PT-1, which I'm guessing is pretty much the middle ground between the VL-1 and the PT-10. It has all the features of the PT-10 but, with an included headphone jack. Unfortunately, it's still missing features from the VL-1. My PT-1 is still in really good condition and other than having to replace the tuning pot, it's pretty much exactly as it was when my Mom bought it for me, brand new, nearly 40 yrs. ago.
Thanks Mom, for giving me my first musical instrument and setting me down my musical path, which I still follow to this day. I love you ❤🥰...
Wow. What a fun process to watch. Thank you for documenting this. And thank you for capturing the essence of this delightful little instrument.
god david, i just love these videos, its like a whole story and some how has me on the edge of my seat to see how you over came a small issue .
Great Video! I just found out about decent sampler and piano book.Your video is pulling down farther down the rabbit hole!
I just started using FL studio so to say this sample library is a blessing is kind of an understatement. Thank u for the incredible library :)
Your videos are always insanely entertaining. You are a musical and national treasure. Love what you are doing David.
Hey David!
I came here to say thank you for making the Casio PT-10 Synthesizer Sample Library!
I haven't been playing the Piano with my computer much until today, when I attached DecentSampler to my Ableton instance.
And first choosing your Casio PT-10 library, I was thinking.. "Wow.. this is really pretty."
I made a song almost immediately!
And I have had trouble making songs.
So thank you!
It really inspired me.
And I appreciate your work and effort.
Sincerely,
Matthew
I had one of these as a kid...I'm now a professional musician... serious nostalgia. Thank you.
Thank you for doing this, and for making a free sample library out of it. My grandma gave me a PT-10 when I was a kid, and I had it until a friend said she wanted to learn how to play an instrument, so I gave it to her. Never saw it again. So this is bringing back a lot of warm memories.
5:18 Beethovan? 😅
I'm blown away. Thank you for this nice explanation and the effort to make sound obtainable for people
I had one of these when I was a kid back in the late 80s. Hearing you play this immediately brought back memories that I forgot I had.
The sounds and beats of this synth or a probably a PT-1 were used by the soviet rock band kino in their album Nachalnik Kamchatki (1984). The distinctive drum beat and sounds of the synth sets the album apart. You should check out that album for a taste of how good those beats can be when used good.
As soon as you tried the drum sounds I immediately thought of the 80s hit from Trio: “Da Da Da” and how apropos that someone from Europe sent this to you 😂
Yeah, the drums are far more famous in comparison to the keyboard sounds. NDW ftw.
Thanks for the sample library and the amazing video! Cheers David!
this sounds really really good, thank you for doing what you do
Was surprised to see Switzerland mentioned here but nonetheless happy to see my country in your really good video! Good length, fun and interesting
I used to live in the Geneva/Neuchatel area.
This was very nostalgic! I had a VL-1 a long time ago. I'd love to get my hands on one again!
I found one on Ebay a few years ago for 90€. I love it!
@@HarveyHirdHarmonics I actually went looking around in Ebay after watching this video. Sadly, I don't have the financial freedom to get one right now but someday I will.
these videos bring me a great sense of peace, while somehow also maintaining an air of inspiration. thank you for creating (:
Thanks for the hard work sampling this wonderful little keyboard.
Not sure how possible it would be in the current decentsampler framework but I think an interesting idea with the cassette/speaker blend (and other similar options in other libraries) would be the ability to have one in mono with the other in the stereo field
literally bought a VL1 earlier this year for £35. whilst its showing its age a little, the magic is still contained within it.
plays well with teenage engineering sampers and whatever else I throw at it 😀
I seem to remember they cost about £30-35 quid back in the day. As a child I used to relieve boredom by reading Dixons, Argos etc catalogues and alarmingly I can probably tell you a ballpark price for any popular product (that I had a passing interest in) back in that era. If only I could have focused on my actual school work with such clarity, lol
@@ColonelForkEyes I can relate, but with speccy progs and every single game I had for it -down to the pile of cassettes (legit and other) and random early 80's tech my parents couldn't fathom. Never lost that skill. 🤣
My god, the moment you started playing with the microcosm and the habit, I got teary eyes from all the good old memories of pure and warm gaming session's of my younger days. thank you !
This was the first keyboard I ever played. My grandmother had it. These patches are forever ingrained in my memory. Thank you for this!
Very Beach House like
Really love the sounds your getting from this
Thank You David from me in the UK. This was a keyboard which I had when I was a kid. To have this recreated brings back some very nostalgic feeling and I have downloaded straight away.
Thanks so much for making this. Sounds beautiful!
Love this!! Thanks for bringing up/showing soldering and your creativity with making samples and sharing the samples! Will definitely use the sample library for my own sound projects! As well love your channel and the skills/tools you share here, very insightful!:)
This is insane. I had this when I was a kid, and totally forgot about it until I saw your video. Burst of nostalgia. Thank you! :)
Man, I love this channel's vibe. Looking forward to trying out this sample. Keep up the great work!
You gave me back a very special moment of my childhood with this. I had the Casio VL-1 and I loved it when I was a kid. 45 years later I can enjoy the sounds again!!!!! Thank you so much!
Love your videos! So chill and interesting.
Absolutely beautiful. Bravo 👏. Giving this away for free is insane, you are the man.
I recently made something with this sample library, and it's great to see the attached video now. Very lovely sound that mixes well with a variety of genres. Thanks for your work
You are the master of sampling. Love all you do. specially the historical chapts.
Thank you sir for making this videos ❤ you are a legend ❤
This video was the perfect way to start my Saturday morning. Thank you!!!
Just wanted to say I love your videos. Keep making them!
Another phenomenon video David. Much appreciated
I loved this! Great work! Looking forward to try this samples. Thank you!
this video came up in my recs and it was an absolutely wonderful use of my time 🙌 so informative and well put together. Just subscribed, thank you for the samples!
You're so generous, it makes my heart a bit warmer than yesterday. Thank you.
I love your videos, I love your vibes, thanks for all the content!
I love videos like this! I have no idea how to create music but that's very kind of you to make those plugins free! All the best to you
Nice work David. I didn't know how much I miss this sound. Christmas day remembered. Thanks.
This video randomly showed up in my feed, I got one of these for Christmas in the late 80s. Thanks for the nostalgia!
Keep it up David, these videos rock!
This is so rad, thanks for doing this!!! Can’t wait to use it 😊
Very awesome video! And thanks for sharing the samples free! Helping fellow creatives everywhere
As a kid I asked for a keyboard one year for Christmas. This is the same keyboard I was gifted. Thanks for bringing back the memories. Can't wait to get this library! Thanks David.
I had this one when i was a kid!! This video makes me feel so nostalgic, I remember loving the sounds i could make with it
what an incredible job you did man! cheers
im so glad you made the samples free, i plan to make a game someday and the sound of this instrument is nearly exactly what im looking for for the music
Thank you so much for the video and the sample library ❤
Thanks for making these free. I had one of these and a VL Tone as a kid and loved them. Really brings me back.
Really excited to try this thank you !
Thank you for making Decent Sampler i've been having a blast with it lately
What a gift! Thank you very much for the video and the samples.
This is awesome, I recently found my little Casio keyboard, and thought about using it for a song, and it's awesome that you've uploaded the sounds online for free!
I had the same one when I was a kid, and my grandma had the one from 1991, which I had a lot of fun messing around with!
Never thought I'd see ones of these on the channel! Had this as a child; modified it decades ago to have line out instead of going to the speaker. I'm glad you had the exact same idea! Amazing to think there's a sample library for it now!
This video made me so happy. One of my cousins had a PT-10, with which I devoted countless afternoons. As soon as you hit the rhythm select button, I was suddenly 10 years old again, stretched out in a sunny spot on my aunt's living room carpet, making hit records that will never see the light of day. Thank you for this.
That sample set of the Casio sounds really great. I love how you made it.
i was already gonna like the video but when you said i can use the samples and theyre free I literally said bless your soul !!!! you sir have gained a follower.
i put a quarter inch jack on my casio pt-87 and enjoy using it when i just wanna have some fun !!!! keep up the amazing content !
Wonderful video as always. I particularly love this one, though, because it perfectly maps out a simple process for modifying and sampling these old toy keyboards. It's really something anyone can do, and you've made a perfect tutorial. Now to add output jacks to all my toy keyboards!
Great work. Congrats from Brazil!
I still have mine. It's the VL-1 model with an output jack. I used to plug it into an amp and play it in a band back in the 80's. My kids used played with it and now my grandkids play with it now. I even have the case.
BRO I LOVE UR WORK, thank u 4 share this.
so cool that you offer such quality for free! huge props
I love this channel so much
Beautiful work here. Amazing video too. WELL DONE.
Excellent Video 🙌👍💯. Thanks Dude for the nostalgia and free sample library 🙏🏻☮️
