      I find that dry cleaner bags are the ideal size of cover for synths. I have collected several manufacturers covers over the years as well.

    Blue Monday to me as a teenager in 1983 was just a MASSIVE game changer for the whole of my life.
    Also worth a mention, again another MASSIVE game changer for me in 1983 was The Sisters Of Mercy with their original version of The Temple Of Love, again recorded on a DMX. I've been looking out for them but they rarely come up for less than £2,000!
    But as the Jaguar car advert used to say
    "What are dreams for, if not to come true?" :-)

    My mate did a full version of Blue Monday on a Nintendo Gameboy. Using LSDJ, and a suitable flash cart. He entered it into a go-nowhere, crappy competition and didn't win. It's my opinion (again, I mean this whole thing is my opinion, whose else's would it be?) that he did a great job. It was brilliant! Worked really well with the Gameboy's limitations, and was generally fabulous. I might have to get him to let me upload a copy.

    its always magical to see the machines that created the sound uve known in your head for decades , kind of strange too , remember when I was young listening to OMD , especially Almost by them , thinking they created these beautiful synth sounds from big expensive Synthesizers , then you find out they was just using a little Korg M500 mono synth from your mothers Kays catalogue lol , think I remember New Order saying they discovered Blue Monday beat by accident while learning to use this ? and another part when the Sequencer went wrong but it fitted so kept it in

    • @Shred_The_Weapon
      @Shred_The_Weapon 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's something which I suspect they've engineered out of subsequent machines, the ability to swap EPROMs. Now, you're supposed to be able to upload the sounds directly.
      Tell me, is it tough to swap EPROMs in an Oberheim? I'm no engineer, even though I'm fascinated with the activity of it.

    • @Shred_The_Weapon

      If I ever try getting my hands on either machine (and succeed), that info will come well in hand. (Not likely, unless I could learn how to trigger the sounds from a MIDI drumkit, which I prefer over programming.)

  • @kz1000ps
    @kz1000ps 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    About that random hihat strike at the end of the snare roll pattern, it sounds like the DMX's open hat except cranked way the hell up (at least 12 dB) and definitely overdubbed. Or at least that's my guess!

    • @SynthManiaDotCom
      @SynthManiaDotCom  7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Agree, I thought about that too, but the hats in the main pattern of the song also sound quite different... like if they're syncing something else to it- we need to investigate the hats story a bit further! :)

    • @justinbarrington-higgs6156
      @justinbarrington-higgs6156 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      IMHO Steve Morris played about 50% of the high hats on the song on an actual drum kit-listen to the "On the Beach" instrumental-there are subtle variations in the high-hat pedal work that drum machines just couldn't do in 1983

      @martinmidgley7544 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Those missing high hats that are on the original have always sounded human compared to the rest of the rythym track. This is, amongst many other things, what made that song so special. Morris is/was an organic drum machine :-)

    • @opsin8
      @opsin8 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      The closed Hi Hat on Blue Monday sounds the same as the ones on The Walk by The Cure. The "Closed, Accent, Open" buttons on the DMX all play the same sample on the card (open hi hat sample) There is a jumper setting on the card to add more decay to the closed hi hat. Desoldering and soldering might be involved. Ask Paul from www.electrongate.com I'm sure he'll have all the answers.

    Best sounding bass drum ever.much as I love analogue synth and drum machines, in the end I still prefer the kick and snare on these early digital dm's.there's a ton of proper analogue/virtual analogue drum machines being made right now which is great so maybe it's time for a new drum machine that Hoover's up this era of dm's like linn drum scTom dmx etc complete with song mode tuning CV triggers and individual outs.most new digital drum boxes have boring too real sounding samples and have only stereo outs and midi.

    As with RetroSound’s demos which come close to cancelling out my disinterest in owning a sampling keyboard/module, your drum machine demos could cancel out my disinterest in buying a hardware drum machine.

    So i tried to recreate this on the VPROM vst instrument by loading original DMX .bin files into the program. In theory this should give a close to realistic DMX sound but in reality it's completely different sounds. My guess is that the original hardware had built in circuitry that rendered the rather flat and uninteresting bin files dramatically soundvice. Any idea what's going on here?

      It's just a slightly different tuning that I have used (most drum voice cards inside the DMX can be adjusted in pitch via a small wheel) and probably the EQ from my mixer. Just tweak those parameters, maybe even add some light compression, and you'll have the same sounds.

    The hi hat sound at the end of the break patterns is a sound from the dmx. It was a crash that was choked to make a metallic like sound. Whilst I'm not sure how it was done, I do know that I was from the dmx

      @@SynthManiaDotCom While it may not be the best source, I watched a video from a TH-camr who reviews drum machines, named Captain Pikant. He made a video where he spent 1000 days transcribing drum beats. Near the 2:30 maro of the video he recreates the sound with the Dmx cymbal.

    Any particular thing to say about the tuning? Your kick sounds very punchy. My dmx kick sounds a bit more crunchy, like very low fi. Being trying to tune it like the song. Yours sounds different than mine. Did you change the eprom? Is just eq?

    • @SynthManiaDotCom
      @SynthManiaDotCom  7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's the original eprom. It's probably the Soundcraft console's eq, I eq'd it and tuned it to mimic the one in Blue Monday for this video, but didn't have time to do separate outs, so the high freq for the hat probably play with the bd sound too

      I've found that Hi equing the kick sometime gives a nice punchy effect. I tend to do that on analog machines like the KR55, KPR77 or the Volca Beats. It gives me a close feeling to Vince Clark super punchy ARP2600 kicks which I love by the way. :D

    Are you using Excel for the drum charts? I've found that others are using it for sequencer pattern data for volatile memory items or things like this. You're doing the world a great service by showing how well the DMX can clap, btw.

    Thanks so much for this.
    I’ve just got a midi DMX and it’s really useful having your videos as a resource.
    With the DMX is it normal for them to lose sync after a certain number of loops?
    Mine is synced to Logic via midi and is ok for a number of cycles but then will suddenly fall out of time. Not sure if this is a bug or a quirk and if there is a workaround

    • @SynthManiaDotCom

      It shouldn't lose sync... after how many measures do you suddenly lose sync?

    • @theelectricdisco
      @theelectricdisco 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      SynthMania it’s random. Sometimes only 4 or 5, sometimes it can cycle for ages before suddenly dropping.

    • @SynthManiaDotCom

      No, according to Wikipedia, for the DMX rapper it means "Divine Master Of the Unknown". Davy DMX, on the other hand, did.
