Members 1001gear Posted December 16, 2017 Members Share Posted December 16, 2017 Try contacting the producers or studio guys in that region. Why do you want to know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Music Bird Posted December 16, 2017 Author Members Share Posted December 16, 2017 Because I want to recreate the sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1001gear Posted December 16, 2017 Members Share Posted December 16, 2017 Then you should seek out the original people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Music Bird Posted December 17, 2017 Author Members Share Posted December 17, 2017 I am in the US so I can't do that unless I travel. So I'm looking to see if anyone recognizes any synth or organ in these songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1001gear Posted December 17, 2017 Members Share Posted December 17, 2017 Do some research, look for contact info, try more keyboard fora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Music Bird Posted December 17, 2017 Author Members Share Posted December 17, 2017 There's not much online, and the 1977 example people say on other fora is an organ and a synth (don't know which organ or synth), I haven't even seen info for contacts. Plus I wouldn't speak the language anyways, because even though I listen to a lot of this foreign music, my native language is English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1001gear Posted December 17, 2017 Members Share Posted December 17, 2017 Yamaha had a theater type organ that used FM synthesis. You can look into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Music Bird Posted December 17, 2017 Author Members Share Posted December 17, 2017 That came out in the 80's. Yamaha's first FM product was in 1980, the GS-1. This song came 3 years before. Is it possible it was an ARP Odyssey maybe? I seem to remember seeing one with a similar sound, plus, that brass sound in the '77 song sounded duophonic.

Members 1001gear Posted December 18, 2017 Members Share Posted December 18, 2017 There might have been prototypes. Regardless, Goog something like "vintage keyboard guru" "vintage keyboard info" etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Music Bird Posted January 1, 2018 Author Members Share Posted January 1, 2018 I found out it's the Yamaha E-70 Electone organ from 1977. It has synth sounds on it that sound the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
