!!!! Who had any doubt about it.....


Anyway, just for the info, it's again the ARP in MF album, nope ?

In the album it's Oberheim OB-X I think.

I always thought jarre used the MDB-polysequencer for the album..

But in This http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvLwT1G9kvI you can see jarre doing something with a D-beam, with i think the Roland HPD-15..

You though well, the MDB as been used on the whole album, as is name said, this is a sequencer, not an instrument itself ; by deduction, i think it drives the ARP2600.

The only thing he was doing with is D-Beam is launching Roland internal effect preset i guess....

aha.. hehe you guys seem to teach me more and more about this stuff

That's live in... 200x?
The album was in 1981. That D-beam thing was a thing waay beyond the future back then...

yes, but i just thought thats how hes doing it these days

Try to think less.

aint sure about mf. mdp polyseq for sure. but for the sound arp2600 or rsf kobol was used. i think it was kobol coz sync is needed to get that kinda sound

Thank you so much Radek, you've just resolve a problem i have with the MF4 sequence sound I always forgot to try sync.... !!!

Whats about the sync?
Why cant this have been played using the Matrise Sequencer and ARP2600? I has the same Legato effekt as the Equinoxe 7 bass.

I don't think it's the RSF; in the CIC the following year RSF was used for the sequences and they sound a lot different (apart from the intro which should be the original tape played at half speed...)

Radek, congrats for the K2000! I am a fan of that machine.
As to the LCD, in my rack version 3 from 1998, the display is a really bright green, very different from all the other machines of the same era; the backlit was probably very different from the backlit of a Korg 01/W (well, that's just my guess)

i'm talking about mf1 sequence. vince was talking about it here
