I JUST received the ROLAND System-1 yesterday and I knew NOTHING about synthesizers before this other than I liked the sounds they make. These are THE BEST tutorials I have EVER seen. Thank you SIR!! I will look for more of your tutorials.
I'm coming from very little knowledge to your videos and they have answered almost all of my synth questions that every other tutorial left me in the dark!
What a really comprehensive set of videos and something I could keep watching over and over. Great work. Love to see more video like this as you appear to have lots of knowledge. Cheers
It's great to refresh the mind with tech tutorials on Synths, especially a video like this one that is explained in an easy way to understand the depths of Filters. 👍 & Sub'd.
These videos are a godsend. Thank you so very much. They are clear and concise, with demonstrations directly after the explanations on the effect of the sound. Love your PWM and “Can we recreate a patch on the JU-06a too.
Question at 6:23: Why does the "attack" of the envelope essentially turn the LPF off? Shouldn't turning the attack time up mean that the LPF starts off, then, over the course of the attack time, turn on? (That is, move to where you've set the knob?)
I'm pretty sure the section on keyboard tracking is wrong. With the 'key' knob in the middle, there is no keyboard tracking, i.e. the filter cutoff is static. As you turn the 'key' knob clockwise the filter cutoff increasingly follows as you play up and down the keyboard.
my music got high and low frequency . some time low is on high in my music. some time opposite . this one can fix that. I can not find any way while I made them.
It seems to me he's doing a lot of work to achieve a certain sound; but couldn't all that work be avoided by just using presets, synthesizers have been around for decades you can't tell me nobody's already recorded the best parameters for sound it's 2021
Preset sounds are great, and I'm sure you could probably find most of the sounds you might want created by someone else. But there's a huge amount of satisfaction in making your own sounds. Plus what happens if you can't find a preset sound that is right? You might find one that is close and you need to know how to edit it to make it right. I use preset sounds all the time, but I still make a lot of my own sounds too. Whatever makes the music better.
It is so cool that this little machine under your hands explains it all so well. Thanks!
Not gunna lie this is the best synth tutorial i have founs
Someone give this guy a medal.

This really is an incredible introduction to synthesizers. Thank you so much for putting this together. It is so incredibly helpful!

Stuart Jackson thanks Stuart! Really glad you are getting some help from these videos. I hope to add another one on LFOs soon.
Roland Tips and Tricks - That would be really helpful. Looking forward to it already!
I purchased one of these a few months ago and this is the BEST video I've seen from a learners perspective. I learned SO much from this. LOVE IT!!!
Thanks very much Bill! Glad it has been helpful to you.
This is awesome! I never understood the filter on my synth. I probably have to watch this a few times, but I already understand it so much better 😄
Glad you liked it!

Really clear and well done - just bought one of these so very useful - many thanks! ( there should be more of this sort of thing on youtube)
Man, one of the best videos about synths I've ever seen! Very well explained. Great job! :D

Thank you very much for these tutorials, much appreciated! Great job on the explanations.
Thank you! Glad they have been helpful for you.
subbed. Been using synths for yrs without knowing enough. Thanks for a very clear and simple explanation of things. Brilliant
Very helpful thanks. And no showing off or “comedy” like usually feature on any music instrument video!
Easily the best synth tutorial
Thanks Adam!
Question at 6:23:
Why does the "attack" of the envelope essentially turn the LPF off? Shouldn't turning the attack time up mean that the LPF starts off, then, over the course of the attack time, turn on? (That is, move to where you've set the knob?)
really good and simple thanks.
Straight to the point. Thanks.
Brilliant run through for a novice. Thx
Is this synth compatable with other instruments? For instance would I be able to hook it up to a guitar rig to control it?
Thank you! Any good resources that expand a bit more on how to use on keyboard tracking?
Great tutorial thanks !
Thanks! Glad it has been of help to you.
I'm pretty sure the section on keyboard tracking is wrong. With the 'key' knob in the middle, there is no keyboard tracking, i.e. the filter cutoff is static. As you turn the 'key' knob clockwise the filter cutoff increasingly follows as you play up and down the keyboard.
Mate your a legend!
my music got high and low frequency . some time low is on high in my music. some time opposite . this one can fix that. I can not find any way while I made them.
Your video has been very helpful thank you
These videos are awesome! Everything is explained beautifully! Thanks!!!
There's a huge and long pad like synth intro on Pink Floyd's Shine On. How is that created?
Great video
7:40 reminds me of laffy taffy - d4l
Sounds like daft punk basses lol. This is really good
does anyone know where the glide on synthesizer roland system 1
Can the system 1 wrigth sequences?
No it doesn't have a sequencer on this synth.
That last bit didn't make any sense, but the rest was very helpful, thanks!
the filter envelope is quite different from Synth One.
This is gold
Thank you. very help.
Still usefull. I could manage to find a complete new system-1.
So good, thank you
I know now frequency on key board , how you going to produce life time same time .I am trying to sent to amature post..

this filter is alot better because. it has got low and high frequency. Yes... very useful to kill one..

Got to skip this one... cannot follow this story... :-(
