@@NachoMartyMeyer hey nacho, thanks for the tip! makes me want one of these old yamahas. are you mainly using factory patches in this video or do you build sounds from scratch? i'm wondering how easy it is to program something like this or the TG33 for example
@@trevor4835 It can be programmed from the Synthesizer itself, BUT it is not a very traditional way and it is not very easy / comfortable, I used a free software editor that allows you to edit everything in real time, I also used a few patches downloaded from the internet that I liked a lot, there are too many options to choose a Synthesizer, the best is to look for the one you like the most in terms of sound, the TG33 is very easy to program from itself and so so fun!
Vos sabés que la idea era hacer algo mucho más largo y variado, pero no pude más, estába volviendome loco, usé un editor por supuesto, pero tantos días seguidos con FM me mató y lo abandoné porque ya me lastimaba, pero es un sinte hermoso igual :D
LO-FI Monster ! I love 8/12 bits stuff but your knowledge is pure Genius... I'm blown away by your sounds and the way you manage them into those amazing tracks. Eargasmic ! Makes me want to start my TX81ZEEEE now ! still lookin for a cheap tg33 hope to find one in good condition soon !
hi! i'm so glad you like it! thanks for the good vibes! yes, TX81Z can do a lot of interesting sounds, love it, I hope you can get a TG33 soon, it's wonderful, it's endless, I miss it so much, so fun!
@@NachoMartyMeyerTG33 has been found !!! Arrived today and feel very lucky, announcement for sale 1 hour before my research , destiny ! Was waitin 4 me ! I love this unit will be perfect with my tg33 and esq1 😊 do you actually sale synth patches lo-fi style or sale tracks only ? will buy some soon they are amazing. I have this big esq1 card with tons of presets but only a few (to my taste) are really interesting to use and/or modify...esq1 is a very capable synth in terms of synthesis, so does the tg and tx but I far to your level in synthesis now ... I work on it 4 sure but wonder if you can help me gettin some nice fresh stuff ! Peace bro. Or you perhaps know some cool places to find patches ... Please continue to give us your good vibes, your work is fabulous bro. I just watched your synth blind tests, it's excellent and genius idea ! Peace
i'm so glad to know that :D it's a beautiful FM synthesizer, capable of doing a lot of things (weird or classic), I recommend using a dedicated software or hardware editor as programming it from its own panel can be confusing and tedious with some parameters, luckily there are also thousands and thousands of amazing patches on the internet
@@NachoMartyMeyer found a hardware editor three times as expensive as the TX81Z😂 Looks like I'll go the software route and hunt down some tasty patches!! Thanks again, this unit was exactly what I was looking for!
perfect, yes, you're going to have a lot of fun, I used "Ctrlr" it works great and it's free, the TX81Z is wonderful, don't be fooled by the Presets at first, start editing and you'll see the depth it has 🙌
@@NachoMartyMeyer Mine developed transformer noise, which is a common problem affecting many of these. The transformer causes the upper plate to vibrate causing an annoying noise. I don't really know how to safely isolate a transformer so it's been on the repair waiting list for some time. I do miss it :(
@@ZenMountain ohh i'm sorry, yes, I have heard about this problem, I hope you can solve it, surely it is not something complicated for some technician 🙏🏻
@@philipgalle1339 cool! the TX81z is great for making lots of interesting sounds, using an editor is recommended as editing from its own panel can be tedious and confusing
I love this stuff so much! Really glad I randomly found this video and your channel. What would you say are some of your influences? I know very little music like this and would really like to discover more
hey! i'm so glad you like it! and thanks for the good vibes! of course there are many influences, from a lifetime, including dozens and dozens of "video game music" producers, but the ones I admire the most are Aphex Twin, Legowelt and Yuzo Koshiro (to name as few as possible) there are too many influences 🙏🏻 cheers 🍻
hi Tor, i'm so glad you like it, I'll upload it to bandcamp someday along with some of this demo, it's the weirdest track I think and quite short, but in the meantime I can email it to you or leave you a link here to download it
This is Mono only, directly from the unit itself with the help of an external sequencer? No, in the second last track there was some stereo movement. That could have come from the inherent cool possibilities of the unit itself. In many ways this was more flexible than the follow up, like the SY77, which had strict conform to a midi channel, if set to multimode. A first MF, like the D110 was as well.
hi, this time I recorded in layers, the stereo sensation is because I recorded the same patch twice but one slightly out of tune and panned, although it would also be possible to have two almost identical patches at the same time in 'Performance' mode and create a chorus effect in theory
hola Pedro! Nunca probé ninguno de ellos, pero si los escuché y leí sobre ellos, para mí están muy interesantes, ambos se pueden editar, te darán sonidos bien 80's y 90's si es que eso te gusta, y como se pueden programar pueden ir muy lejos también, creo que el precio es espectacular por ambos, hace tiempo sigo al D-110, me encantan las waveforms que trae y su audio! ambos son romplers con varias muestras acústicas pero también sintéticas y al poder programarlos se pueden lograr sonidos muy interesantes sin dudas, lo mejor es que escuches todas las demos que puedas y leas sobre ellos para saber si son de tu agrado, para mí son dos módulos hermosos :)
@@FoxGAMING-NTF yes, I don't have the habit of saving patches, sometimes I would like to use certain sounds again and I don't know how I managed to make them 😞
Rare somebody can to create nice patch FM like u.
thank you! i'm glad to know that! I used an editor and some presets too 🙂
17:45 Very interesting sound, reminds of Ricardo Villalobos - Dexter!
It's true! I didn't know it, I just listened to it and it's a very similar FM sound 🙂
Absolutely fantastic
i'm so glad you like it!
this is slappin
This demo gives me major Aphex Twin vibes.. love it
cool! i'm glad to know that! 🍻
AFX is my top hero 🙌
Famous 'Lately Bass' patch/sound at 12:00. Some people keep TX81z just for this bass sound alone.
Yes!
I’m a simple man! I see new Nacho’s synth demo tracks, I hit play and listen bouncing my head up and down. Then I hit like! ❤
lol! so glad to know that my friend 🍻♥️
Demo?? This is practically an EP!
It was going to be longer but I was already going crazy 😄
Always thinking Detroit playing the TX81Z or 802; those aquatic sounds, percussion, clavs, crystalline effects, even strings.. Great demo's Nacho!
i'm so glad you like it! yes, an iconic instrument of Detroit techno
Another classic jam by Nacho Marty Myer. 🤘
That's a great sound from only four operators (I had to look that up). 👍
hi Andrew! i'm so glad you like it!
12:48 I use the 4op timpani sound a lot, its way better than the DX7 preset.
seems that 4op is "better" than 6 for percussion, I don't know why... but I feel the same, it also happened to me with an FB-01, very interesting for percussion too
Best demos out there!
i'm so glad you like it :)
Great job on this, especially impressed with the kick drums and percussion sounds
thank you very much! i'm glad you like it! yes, TX81z is great for drums and percussion
This is probably the only “current” music I listen to, excellent stuff ❤
ohh i'm so glad to know that! thank you for the good vibes :)
Nacho ftw!
Oh man your tracks sound really freaking great!
( came for the synth demo, stayed for the music bla bla bla :) )
ohhh i'm so glad to know that! 🍻
I blast your demos when im driving in my car amazing 👏
ohh so cool to know that Chino! 🍻
your sound choice and melodies bring out the best in every synth
hi Trevor! i'm so glad you like it! If you use the same patch 2 times but one slightly detuned a delicious chorus is generated
@@NachoMartyMeyer hey nacho, thanks for the tip! makes me want one of these old yamahas.

Una vez más, dándolo todo con un sinte que no te regala nada.
