Obscure Objects Ep. 1: The Korg PS-3100.

[@deantiquisetnovis]

Very nicely done!

Full Bucket is a savior.

Second that.

[@Musik_Arbeiter]

Awesome video! Can't wait for the next episode! 🙌

[@NicolasMelis]

dream synth !

[@AlexBallMusic]

What a beauty. I think the PS series are the only polysynths with a patch panel? Certainly from the 70s. Very unique instrument.

[@SlikkTim]

Thank you for this amazingly well produced video. A patching tutorial would be amazing !

[@danpreston564]

And now Korg reissue the 3300.

[@smemmusic]

great timing!

[@Nunchuckstraberry]

The ps3000 series is my favorite out of the pre prophet polys out there. Nothing sings like those resonators.

[@SomberScream]

Beautiful video! Deserves more recognition. Loved the intro.

[@christianeb8494]

Thank you for this voyage in the past. Hello from France.

Bro, your content is amazing. I’m so lucky to have found this channel. Keep it up brother 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

WoW what a beauty, thanks you. 😊

[@PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

Magnificent documentary.

[@Seekthetruth3000]

Good info.

[@mymodularjourney]

Lovely stuff.

[@the.variable.japanese]

It was used on "Thousand Knives of Ryuichi Sakamoto" and in the early Yellow Magic Orchestra. 😀

I want a 10 hour tour

[@throwingshapes6490]

Thank you for this video. I'd never heard of the PS3100 but always wondered if there was a polyphonic version of the the ms20.

[@RegebroRepairs]

It looks like it is, but the sound is quite different.

[@dyscotopia]

I need a reissue. That sounds gorgeous and I like to play the occasional 12 note chord with massive amounts of attack and release. Volca PS3100 anyone? 🤣

[@xammai9679]

Behringer 🤷🏾‍♂️?

[@vincewizz8534]

Seems like Korg heard you 😊

[@nothing-b2n]

Nice

[@thomasfsan]

Can you share how you got it running on the iPad? Link maybe? I can’t seem to find a version like that..

If only I could afford one of the and then online how much PS-3300 remakes

[@TheAstronomyClub]

Does Anyone know why we’re only 600 made?

[@WARDISWARD]

00:51 I wouldn't call the PS300 the litlle brothre but more like younger brother

[@baward]

Mine has a push-button for the power, rather than a 'lever' switch.

[@Samplers]

I’ve never understood how patching works on these synths. A patch cord only transports signal for a single voice - how does this work in a polyphonic context?

[@naturarum]

all voices have the same parameters!

[@Samplers]

I get that it's not multitimbral - but that's not what I'm getting at. Patch cords don't normally set "parameters" but are part of the voice architecture, in circuit, carrying audio and control signals. As far as I can tell the synth is not paraphonic but a complete synth for each key. How does the modular routing work when the patch cords are only two conductor cables? You'd need 48 way TRRRRRRRRRRS connectors to make this work like a normal modular synth. Even if the patch cords just make connections in a routing/switching mechanism you'd need a pretty crazy routing matrix to make it work. Is that how it works?

[@RegebroRepairs]

@@SamplersThe patch bay is only for the control voltage, you can't change the signal path.

[@Error6503]

It looks like you can only patch modulation, which will be monophonic and applied across all voices equally (many polysynths have a single LFO for all voices). There's some unconventional patch points; I assume Attack and Release will modify those envelope parameters for every voice but it doesn't let you actually patch in an envelope itself.

[@jeffreyorion]

Today we differentiate between paraphonic and polyphonic. paraphonic is basically a monosynth that can play multiple different notes while a truly polyphonic synth is capable of modulating each synth voice differently.

[@hardcoreherbivore4730]

Any mention of Aphex Twin and the gear he used/uses gets an instant 👍 and subscription.

[@adamarmstrong9408]

Yeah he used 2 of these on the Afx Analord series

[@hardcoreherbivore4730]

@@adamarmstrong9408 Actually, his AFX material evaded me for years. A DJ played what I was certain was Aphex Twin, but didn’t recognize the track. Asked him after the set, and was so excited about new material. Great stuff!

I am a nerd, more technical detail about the hardware used internally please.....And then demo how that hardware contributes to the creation of those beautiful sounds. please...thank you...
