Members Unfed Posted July 23, 2005 Members Share Posted July 23, 2005 thought this was pretty cool. starts out pretty slow and the narrator needs a kick in the ass, but there's alot of cool info in there. not exactly sure how precise it all is (i don't think an actual 303 was used on Newcleus' 'Jam On It' or Madonna's 'Ray of Light' for example), but anyway... http://www.nkhstudio.com/pages/bassline_mp4.html enjoy.

Members BOBA JFET Posted July 23, 2005 Members Share Posted July 23, 2005 Yeah, some of those songs were blatently not a TB-303. Smack My Bitch Up, for example, was almost certainly a Korg Prophecy doing a 303-ish pattern. Ray Of Light could have been practically any synth ever made with a resonant filter and realtime cutoff control. Nonetheless, it is a cool video. It seems like the kind of thing I could show my dad or one of my friends to make them understand what that overpriced little plastic box is all about.

Members zeronyne Posted July 23, 2005 Members Share Posted July 23, 2005 What is that control surface sitting on top of that weird laptop when they show ReBirth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Hidden Posted July 23, 2005 Members Share Posted July 23, 2005 Is it really possible to speak like that without using a speech-synthesizer? Sounds like something from the X-files. Thanks for link anyway, saved. Nice history lesson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mook Posted July 23, 2005 Members Share Posted July 23, 2005 FWIW at Live 8 the acid riff in Ray Of Light was done on a MS20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AvS Posted July 23, 2005 Members Share Posted July 23, 2005 Im quite shure that the Ray Of Light "acid" sounds are from the Juno 106. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members greaseenvelope Posted July 23, 2005 Members Share Posted July 23, 2005 Either way, an interesting documentary despite the lifeless narrator. More media/technology histories like this should be hitting the memepool. And yes, whomever made this documentary definately was too stupid to know the difference between sine and square, or just didn't care. todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Unfed Posted July 24, 2005 Author Members Share Posted July 24, 2005 hehe, i guess that is the point of it but his tone didn't help matters. i was just thinking 'my god, you dork...' made good sense but i'm glad he didn't go on like that with his obtuse terminology through the whole thing.
