@@bitley Excellent..., thanks.. 😂😂😂👍👍🌟🌟👌👌😁😁🎉🎈🎸🎹🎧🎬🎥🏁🎖✌🏆🍷🍸🍺🍻

Oh thank you so much!

Oh I loved that and also storytelling where one says A the other one B and so forth 😂 Remembering a lot of ROTFLMAO sessions incorporting this. 🎉

It was a matter of deciding whether to focus on them at all... or giving them the deserved focus 😮❤😅

Thanks, you should upgrade to WBF R2 which is even better :-) bitleysounds.com

I managed to locate the original soundbank so I can put up that on the site as a free download. I will work out a freebies & general help page. Personally now building on a bank of my own which will take a longer while :-) My site though is bitleysounds.com and T series content will be up in no more than 15 days from today but might be up in 15 hours too - just can not have any pressure right now.

By the way don't you have any floppy disks for it? If it is an EX it has RAM to recieve sample dumps too.

It does indeed! Build sounds on the internal waveforms and discover its internal synthesizer.

Yes absolutely

Oh dear that is so heart warming to read, thank you a million. Imagine that this track only existed on one of these tapes for nearly 30 years. :-) I had forgotten about many of these tracks. Was great transferring all of it from a minty Yamaha cassette deck to Logic & Reason for mastering and publishing.

@@bitley I'm glad you transferred them :)!

@@Miicrowahvei❤❤❤ Thank you very very very much!!!

😂😂😂 You know I looked in my toolbox for solutions and I couldn't wrap my head on how to fix the knocked off joystick so this became the Bitley Stick, next revolution in synthesizer history! Wonderful to play with. Every man loves his stick! Well I'll stick to the script...

That thing is something I do sometimes, inspired by Art Of Noise actually, by triggering a percussive sound from random high to low notes on the keyboard. Thank you for taking the time to listen :-)

Ahh nice, great trick. Another good use of that effect here: ua-cam.com/video/qL4OuEeYj-4/v-deo.html@@bitley

Thank you very much indeed. A wide assortment of hardware and software instruments recorded into Logic and Reason as well as recording of the Macintosh voices. Guitar parts were performed on keyboard with those sounds coming from Omnisphere 2 and a Roland XV-5080 synthesizer / sampler module. We were using our own soundbank Way Beyond Fairlight for Reason as well as other sampled sounds that I and Jens had recorded & designed over the years. The audio file is also available on the Bitley release Moment on Apple Music, Spotify etc.

@@bitley clever the Mac voices

@@bitley I thought maybe AI 😎

@@ronrobins3513We have been using them a lot over the years both collaborating with others and my solo projects. On the release Yellow Orange you can also hear them singing thanks to the software Vocal Writer, which only runs on machines no newer than the G5 Mac. The developer of Vocal Writer passed away to soon as well as Jens did.

Lol. No, just a spur of the moment. And much later, a video as my girlfriend suggested I should gather pictures etc. It is a mysterious story somehow and kind of eternally. He is deeply missed as one of the most creative and funny guys I ever met. His light moments were wonderful. Alcohol was his drug in the form of light beer. This kept him up but brought him down and nobody knew how to save him. We hoped he would find a way.

Dearest Tudor Neve, cool to see your name which I recognize from many moons back online. This is the way; regardless if you are using Reason or old hardware or whatever you are using; Drum loop -> chorus -> EQ -> Modulator input on the vocoder Synth -> Carrier input on the vocoder Vocoder out -> Delay & Reverb Exchange the drum loop with your own voice to make the vocoder speak instead - just like in classic tunes like Lipps Inc. "Funky Town" etc.

It’s simple. I see a Reason video, I click. Great sound. They should have you on board for making patches for their new reason plus service. 😅 I think the vocoder gets a little neglected.

@@archivethearchives I will always be on the FSB anyway :-) Locate Amazing Lead and let it lead your way :-) Made about 50 presets or so and also those ReCycle 2 presets lol. My mad neighbour was actually at one time _my_ mad neighbour ;-)))

I did it as an art project and almost gave the D-70 away. I got a TE synth that I spent months with and wrote a review about. So I make radical changes all the time. :-) Glad you noticed my work with the D-70. It was made from ground up and took many hours. Almost nobody cared so I moved on. But I miss it.

Apple Music. Spotify. Amazon etc! Thanks a million!!!

You mean to thank? :-)

I guess if you zoom you'll see no chorus is on :-) I have just one theory when I program and it's to finish & save when it sounds like I want it to sound. Sadly very few presets are made that way these days which is why I am a programmer for bitleysounds & Arturia as well. I like sweetspots and I hate ugly harsh sounds.

@@bitley Well I saw there are 3 osc, several LFOs but you get that swirling I like, kind of Pacific state something (sorry memory and lazyness doesn't help). Got similar sound on my Sledge though I need a bit of chorus... Kudos

No it actually was a spir of the moment but as soon I opened up the box and looked at it I realised it had these "models", the new version I assume of "plug outs" and that was very cool. The second thing was that the SH-101 in poly mode sounded REALLY good. All of the presets are basically utter shite but that's just inspiring for someone like me so I can get going. :-) The wavetable stuff is like icing on the cake that I've not even tried yet but it looks kindof tasty.

@@bitley come on… are you being dramatic about the Gaia 2 presets. Roland usually has at least usable presets. But being the expert Programmer you are, I’m sure we can look forward to a Gaia 2 preset collection from the one and only BITLEY 😊🙏🏾

​@bitley Haha, I agree, they really are not the best. I was kind of worried when I got it because of that. Turns out it is absolutely brilliant when you get going on your own stuff. It is still sending shivers down my spine how good this thing is and fun to work with. I'm having a great time with mine. Cheers man, enjoy!

Yes I have always wondered a lot about Roland's strange philosophy of never including waveforms from older stuff as they progressed; JD-800 couldn't sound like the D-50 at all which kind of mezmerized me as they made $0 from the D-50 at that time. They would surely have sold 10 times as many JD-800's. Not even on expansion cards would they do this. Heck even the D-70 couldn't sound like the D-50. So weird. As memory size has grown exponentially we still had to wait for the Integra 7 to get a machine that provided all of the JV / JD / XV waveforms but still maybe just one or two samples / patches sounding like the D-50.

@@bitley Funny I was gonna look into acquiring a JD 08 heartbroken that they discontinued the D05 (and prices went thru the roof) for a small desktop hardware setup. The SE02 for bass, the Behringer Pro 8 (Prophet 600) for analog poly synth goodness and the JD 08 for wispy nostalgia pads and such. But I always figured the JD 800/JD 08 was the D50 on steroids…not so ???

@@ronrobins3513Both yes and no kind of - and this gets lenghty! ;-) OK because if you really want say Soundtrack which modulates Pulse width via velocity on the D-50 the JD can't do that. The D-50 is in fact a VA synth - made long before that concept was made up. So it can modulate the synthesizer (S) partials' waveforms just like a Jupiter 8, Juno etc. The dilemma was that the (P) / PCM waveforms on the D-50 couldn't be affected by the TVF filter. So therefore Roland made a compromise where all waveforms in subsequent gear were PCM waveforms that could be filtered. The downside was that PCM waves (=samples) are static waveforms. Modifying the PCM waves then? Yes some things were attempted and although quite interesting for us sound explorers those modulation techniques could not easily do convincing regular analog style pulse width and ring modulation things. 1. With the D-70 they tried DLM - dynamic loop modulation. This is very interesting in some ways; check out my Okinawa D-70 video to hear DLM in action. 2. With the JV-1080 Structure modulation was presented. Here we could attempt and sometimes successfully achieve really cool ring modulation. 3. With the JD-990 they introduced "digital oscillator sync" which also can create quite interesting stuff. But as the JV & JD engine kept being developed Roland finally came back to what the D-50 once could do in the digital realm. This took 20 years. This was lo and behold the SuperNATURAL synth oscillator. A technology they had put aside all the way since the D-50. Even here I would, if I was a Roland team member, make it a clear progression and I would focus on creating a JD-800 style synth with SuperNATURAL and it must have the following; • All of the D-50 waveforms • All of the JD-800, JD-990 and all JD expansion card waveforms • All of the JV & XV & Fantom waveforms And most importantly it must be sysex compatible to all of these previous instruments. Only then! Only then could they have a machine that could sound like all of the previous synths. Faking the D-50 sounds is quite OK as what they did with the sound library work. But those sounds are nowhere near the original classics. • Also, SuperNATURAL must have way more filter & oscillator charistics. So as you can see it is a jungle and while fun gear comes up like the new GAIA II Rolands' philosophies are such a japanese mystery. WHY did they focus on the GAIA name at all as most diehard synthesists despised the GAIA? What happened to the JP-8000? Lol. Such a mess. I think we have to wait for Roland to really think about all of this because they have for sure presented interesting machines. But the confusing thing is all of the product lines and nobody in the world could ever agree on what would be the finest technology. The original idea was that JUPITER was the top of the line technology. Then came JUNO and became extremely popular. Then came confusion number one. JX - what was it? Jupiter with DX-style sound abilities. That is my guess. Confusion number two: D series. "L/A Synthesis". Confusion number three: JV and JD introduced at the same time and somewhat compatible. JD - Jupter Digital? JV - Jupiter Versatile? Nobody knows so I can only make guesses. JP - Jupiter but without Jupiter? ¿ The 1981 monster classic JUPITER-8 is also called JP-8 even on the front panel. So was the JP-8000 / 8080 JUPITER range synths? Noone knows.... it really gets complicated. And more so with the JUPITER 80 / 50 / X and Xv. Roland has this funny way of creating competition with itself by doing all of these product lines but we who really love them have a very hard time putting our finger on which Roland synth is the best one. Ask around and some people say SH-101, some say JUNO-60, or the 106. And speaking of that; the JUNO-X and the JUPITER-X is just about the same machine in two different enclosures / product lines. I still vote for the D-50 as "D" for Definitely the most Defined digital Roland sound character. Is the JD anything less? No not really; it's awesome. But it can not sound like the D-50. I need a new Roland synthesizer that collects all the Roland synthesizers ;-)))

@@bitley thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge with me . I really appreciate it. Sincerely thanks. I will go over every detail just as I studied Keyboard Magazine back in the day. 😎

@@ronrobins3513 No worries, I'm just a helpless old nerd ;-)
