A small curiosity of 520ST music :)

[yerzmyey]

Hi.

 

Last times I was testing how Atari 520ST would behave as a synthesizer in recording studio.

What I mean is - in early 70s synthesizers sounded in similar way to later sound-chips, they had rather simple possibilities - it was recording-studio effects what gave the special sound to early electronic music actually, not entirely the synthesizers by themselves, in fact.

 

So - I recorded all the required sequencies (with MusicMon) track by track, I added loads of studio effects and...

 

Here is is:

(and for download - yerzmyey.i-demo.pl/Yerzmyey-Enormous_magnitude.mp3 )

 

The only instrument/sound-source and sequencer is Atari 520ST.

 

Of course ***HEAVY POST-PRODUCTION*** has been added, to change sound of original sequences totally. Recording studio effects used: track-by-track recording / filters / phasers / choruses / flangers / delays / echoes / reverbs / equalizers / compressors / limiters.

 

It shows what Atari micromusic hardware can be used to.

 

If anybody's interested, here are original sequences - the only WAVs the song has been made of

Well, just a curiosity.

 

Enjoy.

When I play a game on another system I let Goldrunner stay in start mode and listen while iam play'n, Hellfire and Triad on the sega genesis are good with goldrunner music.

Just goes to show ST + quality amplifier = quite nice

 

Got a stack to do (for ST/64/Amiga) but back at work again

I used two Spectrums, two ATARIs (520ST and Falcon 030) and Amiga 500.

Enjoy.

Welcome to the dark side

 

Doing ST or A8 vids for my channel require me to use my editing station which is isolated from the internet so have a few gameplay videos just sitting there doing nothing right now
