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!
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!!
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!
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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! ❤
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
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.
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!!
Hearing that “Fantasy” font, I literally tabbed out to go search for a sample library with it, and 5 seconds later you said you were making a pack. Tabbed right back in. You just earned a subscription.
@@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.
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
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!
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.
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.
David, I just want to personally thank you for not just making this video, but also creating Decent Sampler itself, giving that away for free and making such a brilliant plugin version of the PT-10 and giving that away free too. Like many people here by the sounds of the comments, it was a beloved toy from when I was a kid. I had it in black rather than white, played with it a long time before I became a guitarist and semi-pro working musician or even understood how to write good melodies. Now, in 2024 with the stereo polyphonic version of the Fantasy setting, I made a synth loop and then ended up writing an epic 9 minute song around it for my originals band featuring the loop as the backbone of the song, also adding bass, electric guitar, organ, vocals, lyrics etc all in the space of a few hours. They now have the demo and I expect your work, which you generously give away for free to your fellow musicians, might well allow us to do it live and also open up a bunch of possibilities for using synth loops via my Digitech Jamman Solo pedal in the guitar rig chain.
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.
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 !
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.
Nothing better than a casio or Yamaha portastudio. And playing them through even basic pedals. It’s the most inspiring thing to do. The early casiotone are far more interesting than the later samplers that you had as a kid.
the hours i spent noodling around on this thing as a child. i wish i had the presence of mind to not throw this gem away. that bossa nova beat has never left my head
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.
Great video! I'm the proud original owner of a mostly operational Realistic Concertmate 200 (Radio Shack branded VL-1), bought back in 1981. Still use it on new music. Especially the Fantasy sound with the right bit of effects. And those cheesy drum patterns were good enough for Trio, Vince Clarke, and even The Fall. :)
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.
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 ❤🥰...
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.
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
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 😂
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
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.
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. 🤣
As this was the simplest little keyboard I had, I gave it to my toddler nephew. It's been perfect for him since it is monophonic! Excited to be able to play it myself with your sample. Thanks, David!
damn i remember my father bought this for me and my sister when we were kids.. he was a musician.. he tried so hard to get us play instruments but we never really learned to play anything, we used to mess around with it.. thank you for sampling this and making it into a plugin now im gonna make some tracks with it.. thanks man!! I love you Papa!!
My grandma had one that she brought along to birthday parties so she could play instead of sing. When she passed away, I was fortunate to inherit it. So fun to see your video.
David, as always such a joy to watch your explorations. Love the pedal segment, amazing how they transform the simple sources. I actually had a VL-1 in high school and you could program it, so I created a patch that sounded like the “class dismissal” tone. I would wait until five minutes before actual dismissal and fired it off, and watched as the halls would fill up 😂 Keep up the amazing work. Joyfully Yours!
I had this as a child and loved it so much. Bossanova was my favourite as I never heard that kind of beat before. So very nostalgic. Thank you to Hamza for sending that in for us to enjoy.
Thanks for sharing. I had this exact same model as a child. Even with the chipped buttons. I remember pressing the "demo" and being enamored with the song, listening to it over and over.
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 !
I don't even really like synths, or instruments for that matter. I just love the production of these videos and how you make these random obscure synths/instruments seem so magical. Please keep up the great work.
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.
Well dang, I saw the title and was thinking Casio had made a new toy keyboard! I've been working on a toy analogue synth with some fun little features like lo-fi sampling and basic envelopes. It's a great creative outlet for that electrical engineering degree that I barely use. This video may have been exactly what I needed to get going again on that project
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
I never realized how much I learned from playing with this second-hand toy as a kid... You nailed the emotion of the obviously synthetic sound of the voices - that was precisely the reason it was fun to actually play as a _toy_ before knowing anything about music theory. It negates the anxiety of expecting yourself to make something elegant using an elegant instrument.
I love this series of keyboard. I own a Casio PT-20 and PT-81, they both have headphone Jacks built in. Casio learned their lesson and they sound incredible. Have been used in a lot of my music production. I love the use of micro cassette dictaphones! Hainbach would be proud. They're so fun to record 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!
Hey David, this is Hamza (the guy who sent you the keyboard).

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.

Thanks for sharing. I had this exact same model as a child. Even with the chipped buttons. I remember pressing the "demo" and being enamored with the song, listening to it over and over.
You're so generous, it makes my heart a bit warmer than yesterday. Thank you.
This is so awesome, that you somehow save and public all this old synths for all of us.
I don’t know anything about music theory or how to play any instrument, but I absolutely adore videos on this channel
i still have it working in my mama's house! its the first "instrument" i have ever played
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 .
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 !
I don't even really like synths, or instruments for that matter. I just love the production of these videos and how you make these random obscure synths/instruments seem so magical. Please keep up the great work.
I'm blown away. Thank you for this nice explanation and the effort to make sound obtainable for people
I wish I could play with all these pedals and old synths, thanks for letting me live vicariously and offering free resources!
Thank you for making Decent Sampler i've been having a blast with it lately
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
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.
Well dang, I saw the title and was thinking Casio had made a new toy keyboard! I've been working on a toy analogue synth with some fun little features like lo-fi sampling and basic envelopes. It's a great creative outlet for that electrical engineering degree that I barely use. This video may have been exactly what I needed to get going again on that project
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
I never realized how much I learned from playing with this second-hand toy as a kid... You nailed the emotion of the obviously synthetic sound of the voices - that was precisely the reason it was fun to actually play as a _toy_ before knowing anything about music theory. It negates the anxiety of expecting yourself to make something elegant using an elegant instrument.
I played with this as a child. When you started the 'drum' beat, my memories flooded back.
this video is giving 8 bit keys a lot, but with a modern take ! love it, love your videos !!
I got a clone of this for Christmas 1984 (Liwaco LW-600). It had a headphone jack :) Thanks for your video!
めっちゃイイじゃん！使わせてもらいます！ありがとう！
Thanks for the great work and letting me use it. This is fantastic.
Omg I had one when I was 10 😢😢😢
thanks for reviving these forgotten memories 🙏🙏
There's a special flavour when you're watching this video while grabbing in real time your childhood's PT-10 with your hands... 🎶🎹
I love this series of keyboard. I own a Casio PT-20 and PT-81, they both have headphone Jacks built in. Casio learned their lesson and they sound incredible. Have been used in a lot of my music production.
I love the use of micro cassette dictaphones! Hainbach would be proud. They're so fun to record with.
Bro i love how you have viewers sending you instruments
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!
I had that model when I was a kid in early 90s but the keyboard was colour red, It brought me great memories watching your video
Hi Sir ! Greeting from Thailand !
I forgot that this is my first music instrument. Thanks for remind me a good memory !
Really love the sounds your getting from this
