I imagine that whoever came up with this idea, be it a manager or one of the engineers, he must have been thought bonkers. I mean, how the hell do you design a fully polyphonic semi-modular synth?

@BBIII19 Yes, it's mine! I wrote it to demonstrate the timbral versatility of the PS-3100, and to show that it didn't have to sound like the brittle cold thing people have described it as.

I had one of these I think it was about 1977. Thought it was going to be the future of synthesizers. What a joke. Not portable, not good live. couldn't save any presets. You bump the oscillation button now that note's out of tune. I don't know what was supposed to be so good about the stupid thing except that I learned the difference between square waves and sawtooth waves. Sine waves, pulse-width modulation, ring modulation. I don't even care about that stuff now. Just give me something that sounds good so I can play.

Eleven years later, you had the answer to your dreams. I can list a lot of things that are good about this thing, but you'd have to be a person who was into what this thing represents, and it sounds like you had different priorities.

@@automaticgainsay yes, it was definitely a lesson well-learned. Probably the biggest lesson is I don't need the latest or the greatest. Especially when it comes to cars. If it's a good deal today it'll be a good deal tomorrow. but the same with musical instruments. I'm primarily a guitar player. And I do have one vintage guitar that I have a hard time selling even if I don't play it anymore.

I have to agree with you about playing live with the PS-3100. I only did it once, and the lighting was a bit crazy and intermittent... which was problem #1... it was really hard to see the writing on the panel in that light. Problem #2 was definitely that I didn't memorize the patches, which had me taking FAR too long to program between songs. I didn't have any tuning problems, but that is definitely because I didn't go anywhere near the microtonal tuning knobs. I can only imagine the nightmare that would have ensued. Although it would have been hilarious for the audience to wait while I tuned 12 individual notes. It is a strange and clunky device, but it is truly capable of some beautiful and otherworldly sounds. On top of that, It was the best implementation of "synthesizer-per-note" ever created. Well, the PS family, anyway.

I shot this video in about 2004 or so to document the functional characteristics of it... and not for a KZitem that didn't yet exist. This was years before I was one of the first synthesizer demonstration channels on KZitem. This was before I had created a functioning demo format. This was before I spent many years being one of the most popular demo channels... a fact that made me a famous synth historian. It was also years AFTER I was a professional composer, an aspiring recording artist, and a skilled musician. You plainly showed up and commented ignorantly on a single video without doing any research at all. It's not that I'm insulted by your laughable ignorance, I just though you should know how provably stupid your comment is. Anyhow, regarding your "non-muscal" characterization... a nozh scrap any time you say. :)

@@automaticgainsay OK, sorry for the insult, but I have to ask, why put out something so horrible when you got such an incredible instrument? I mean only noodling in ten minutes and one could come up with something that would sound awesome compared to this, I just don't see the point in it. But you have some who obviously love your take on it, so what I say probably doesn't matter anyway.

@@RetningNord The point isn't to show you what I can play. You can't play what I can play. The point isn't to show you what I can create with synthesis... you can't create what I do with synthesis. In general, the point of my channel is to demonstrate functionality. You don't come here to hear sweet jams. You come here to get a sense of what the individual functionality of a given synthesizer is. If you're here complaining because you're not hearing sweet jams or the coolest patches, you're at Chipotle expecting a Big Mac. In this specific instance, I made this video for MYSELF when I had planned to sell the synth. Once the synth was sold, I realized it might serve some purpose for some within the context of the paradigm of my channel. Do you get it? Or do you have more baseless and confused characterizations to state?

@@automaticgainsay It seems like you are confused by my simple questions, but thanks anyway for taking your time, and I have no wish whatsoever to play like you anyway, but I conclude watcing many other sound demos on YT, that it is possible to make it sound great, even when just testing sounds and capabilities. Have fun.
