"Delights of Kyoto" - Akai MPC + Roland SH4d + Korg OpSix + Arturia MiniFreak +
"Delights of Kyoto" was recorded live late Saturday afternoon on 3/2/2024 using a MIDI sequencer and a room full of synthesizers and audio gear. All automation was programmed into the Akai MPC X. Some manual tweaks on the Midas console was made during recording.
Inspired by TH-cam videos of Japanese restaurants and diners - "Kyoto" was developed using the Roland SH4d as a drum synthesizer, paired with my usual synthesized drum kit on the Korg Radias and some excellent Hydrasynth patches developed by @Jexus. Voice synthesis on the Arturia MINIFREAK and various pads, plucks, stabs and noises provided by the Sequential REV2, Roland JP-8080, Korg OpSix among others.
The most significant addition to this music is a careful degree of live mixing using the Midas Venice F24 running a stereo mix through the Warm Audio Bus Compressor.

    This tune brings back so many memories because my mum died recently and she gave this keyboard which belonged to her as a child. I’d always play this tune and it’s so nostalgic and I’ve recently discovered the name of the song.

    I saw one of those in a second hand shop way back in January or February 2006 but the only reason I didn't buy it was because at the time I wanted a PSS-280. But in May 2010 on my college break I did also find a PSS-170 in a charity shop which I think is the same but smaller, the PSS-170 doesn't have effects and it only has one speaker. Even though I bought a PSS-170 at the last minute I changed my mind and took it back, maybe I might buy another PSS-170 or PSS-270 someday.

    Got one of these for Christmas back in 1989. Loved it and its stereo symphonic which sounded fantastic. Flute was my favourite voice. I remember getting bored once and taken it apart and was amazed at how high-tech it looked inside in its day. Orange LED for almost every button too. Built in speakers were superb. This thing had quality written all over it!

    The Roland SH4d makes an excellent drum synthesizer despite its lack of velocity modulation to anything but volume. I love the silky sound the Midas Venice wraps around the mix and the HX Stomp is the most capable FX pedal I've ever owned.

    I picked one of those up in a charity shop back in 2010 but changed my mind and took it back at the last minute ( after also realizing one of the keys didn't work ). Maybe I might buy another one someday or get one if I find another one in a charity shop. But I do also have a PSS-470 which sounds similar, I wonder if this one uses the same FM synth chip?

    when i was a kid one of these was in the house but nobody new how to play it, there were no learning materials and no internet. Eventually the age of the C battery fell off and my parents werent running out to get Cs just for this thing, and we werent interested enough to beg them to. Could never find a dc adapter that worked for in the house and one day when my little sister was watching something dumb on tv that she thought was super exciting she started jumping up and down but slipped and landed ass flat on the keys breaking a couple off. that was the final nail in the coffin for this sweet prince. fast forward 20 years and I was trying to remember the model number, and when i saw the image and heard the demo there's no doubt in my mind this was the guy right here. props to yamaha for making affordable armature keyboards, then and now.
