    I used to play the Synths in a group in the 80s. We were very successful and had some great hits. Seeing how you program these today makes it look so easy. Please keep it up, your a breath of fresh air xx

    For those that want to know. The original used a Roland Juno 60, Roland SH 09 controlled with a CSQ-100 sequencer and the drums are MkI Movement Systems MCS Percussion Computer.

    One of the best songs and Synth lines ever.
    Every song I hear I want to hear it remixed with Sweet Dreams.
    In my head I can hear all these remixes like:
    Bad Romance (Sweet Dreams Mix)
    Doctor Who Theme (Sweet Dreams Mix)
    Sweet Dreams by LaBouch (Sweet Dreams Mix)
    I wish I had the gear and the talent to make those mixes.

    Nice video, I was able to replicate some of this synth on a electric bass but felt I needed more. That and a deeeeeep drum kick, and the right set of speakers...
    So I got this Casio CTK 501 keyboard, pretty standard, pretty cheap, surprisingly has MIDI ports, which means I can do A LOT... I just need the right USB Midi I/O. ... and check if those ports are still alive!
    Somewhere I have to start from, isn't?
    I'm just so anxious I can't wait.

    I always got the impression that int the original the attack values fluctuated depending on the note where some of them sounded backwards almost, and in the case where a note is doubled, the previous note hasn't actually finished when the next one is played, a common trick to make it impossible to duplicate the sound exactly.
