I like to walk in the woods during spring and summer time. This thing seems like it would be great to have in my back pack and break out and play with during breaks in my hiking. Might have to get one. Nice vid!
I doooo remember...OMG..i had this and the QY100....i don't know why i sold mine...Thanks for sharing this...We are soo wrapped up in new Gadgets that we sometimes forget of the the old school gear that brings real Memories...
That's exactly the idea behind this series of videos. Unveil good old music devices to avoid get catch by the big wave of the constant incoming new gear. Thanks for watching. Peace!
I like that you explain the instrument with text but also keep the music playing for most of it. This means you can either just listen to it in the background or get to know the instrument a bit better. Very effective! I subscribed for this series, hope to see more!
At one moment, it was my favorite creative synth. I did a lot of interesting songs on it. The fact that it has some nice FX, filters, easy to program sequencer make it a very very good portable synth. I'll never sell it.
What a lovely way to demo the unit. I have seen many videos on the qy, all good, but yours has captured the vibe live approach to using the unit as most of us would want to, whilst demonstrating the power off the unit - good job! I am finally fired up to get stuck into mine. That's all I needed to know, 🍻
Just wanted to say how much I love all your videos. They're always interesting. I love the format of the videos and I love hearing you make beats and stuff, especially the Lo-Fi stuff. You and Ricky Tinez are the only music accounts I watch every video from on here.
Sorry to bother you but it was a question...i forgot the "?" symbol 🤦🏻♂️. I'm asking if the qy70 have the mute and unmute function fast like the Qy10. In many videos I see you need to navigate the menu to unmute any single voice, not doing it from the mini keyboard like the Qy10...that beast has it all😍🤣
I find Roland MC-101 very similar... Midi in out, sound banks, portable... But the number of tracks you can program with this tiny device is still unbeatable
Hello!! So, I just purchased a qy70, and after few experimentations, the memory is now full. I wanted to know how can I find the data filer program compatible with my mac 10.13? or how do you export your songs data please?
I love mine , it’s had a black paint job and a new internal battery , still very cool and pretty cheap on the second hand market. I used it a lot on long train journeys , check out my tune “tears in rain “ played only on QY70
Hi thank you for posting this lovely and informative video. I have a question for you if you don't mind. I am currently using a QX21 to sequence other gear but I find the idea of a groovebox where you can compose music on the couch using its internal synthesizer very appealing. However eventually when a composition is finished I would like to hook it up to my other gear and have external synths "take over" the sound generation, do my Crave can play the bass, my PSR-36 the pads, etc. Is this easy to achieve?
There is a midi menu where you can make this kind of routing. Not easy but certainly it can be done after some adjustment on that menu assigning a midi channel out to any of your pattern channel on the QY
Great! Best thing is that they are still cheap for what they really are, a powerful portable music composer with fully midi implementations. I prefer playing around with my QY than with the OP-1
@@audiowanderer Thanks! I checked eBay and most used models come from Japan. Just concerned about the unit working properly then having to possibly return it. Ugh!
It has lots of settings undercover. If for any reason a previous owner change the pattern from play on loop to just play once then you'll experience this kind of things. Is an awesome device for the time it was released and for even now still sound good just tweaking its sounds properly
@@audiowanderer it would work great with a mpc or plug in sequencer...... I was gonna get a mpc one....if i ever do... I can just sample the sounds and build a good qy.....bank....thanks
That 'GS' midi sound chip is fantastic. Yamaha staple.

Thanks! Hopefully more videos will be uploaded in the following days. Mostly electronic jams and this kind of nostalgic approach.
that forgotten pattern from years ago is stellar! i actually quite like it when the acid comes in. thanks for this video, i may go for one of these.

@@audiowanderer ha! Your very welcome, keep up the good work 👍

Ah, etc wave, my favourite genre :)
I love it !
Really awesome demo here!! Been looking up videos on the QY70 and found your channel!! Glad I did!! Love your ALF toy too!!! 😃🐀
Thanks. Enjoy the QY70! Fantastic machine!
This unit (and QY100) have 16 MIDI tracks. In total there are 24 internal tracks (16 song and 8 pattern). Ive been using mine since 1999 :))
I've been rocking a QY10
So this one is for you… th-cam.com/play/PLmjFsb-8CAxPkFgb3rjtIGwr456qiAAHs.html
im very surprised for this video. Well done!
There is a way to mute and unmute voices fast and simultaneously like on the Qy10. That beast does it all!!! :D

You can do it on the mixer view while you are on the track you want to mute or leave as solo.
I've used this since it came out and have yet to find a modern equivalent.

I just make an audio backup of the tracks composed on there. Never try to export the midi data, sorry
@@audiowanderer Ok thanks no worries, interesting anyway to learn on how people export their work from this lil machine ;)
hi, can you create midi program change sequences? I would like to use it for my whammy
Not sure. Have lots of MiDi options that I barely try after all this years
I love mine , it’s had a black paint job and a new internal battery , still very cool and pretty cheap on the second hand market. I used it a lot on long train journeys , check out my tune “tears in rain “ played only on QY70
cant find it
@@grunntalll sorry mate it’s a private video on TH-cam , I think it’s still on my Instagram
Did you say rain and qy70? th-cam.com/video/4uGnUNTQwYI/w-d-xo.html

I can’t believe how cheap this thing is for how much it does, just ordered mine and getting it soon :)
For me is the best portable MIDI-synth instrument out there. I had an OP-1 and sold that toy because this one
Where can I find this and similar models? I want to buy one. Any ideas?
eBay, Craigslist,etc. This one came from a local fleamarket
@@audiowanderer Thanks! I checked eBay and most used models come from Japan. Just concerned about the unit working properly then having to possibly return it. Ugh!
Japanese users are very kind with their equipment. I would be more worried by the custom extra cost due buying the item from overseas

When having to replace the internal battery do you loose all your user recorded songs/patterns?
Yes. The battery maintain the ram written with your data. When the battery is replaced the memory is reset.
Why it dont have loop?
On pattern mode the patterns are in loop the number of bars you setting up
@@audiowanderer ok...
@@audiowanderer i had one and it lagged on loop...i sold it....cool sound ...it had......
