Damm, another RDJ track that kicks like hell!! I love the contrast between the GX1 arpeggio / patterns and the pad sound in the background. Richard has such a rich musical capability, he can create Ambient, Acid, DnB, Techno or a Piano track, but you can always "see" his handwriting. This man will have his place in the Musical History.

to me it sounds like he got the cutoff of the gx1's filter modulated in real time by a sample+hold waveform synced to the drum machine's (or master sequencer, whatever) clock, waltzy syncopation and all, but what's wild is i don't even understand how that's possible with the gx1, when to my understanding it's a completely preset synth that utilizes patch cartridges that are impossible to edit without modding the hardware. but i certainly wouldn't put it past richard
@richtusser6 жыл бұрын
there is a sequencer on the gx1!! I haven't read about it anywhere else so now you know . And you can actually change the parameters really easily while the cartridges are plugged in! Just stick up a list of all the parameters against numbers by your gx1 Then just adjust each one as required with a screwdriver. If you select patch 10 on each of the synths then the cartridges at the front can be reached easily ,after awhile you learn the numbers easily like pwm is number 14 etc Then you are programming the presets directly and do not need the tone board or the programmer,decent. You can feed any of the drum instruments to trigger the solo synth! E.g every time the kick drum sounds or the Hihat etc the solo synth can be triggered which actually gives you untold pattern possibilities if you combine the drum pattern selectors. Then you can either manually play the key you want with it being triggered in sync. Or just let it trigger automatically. Also the same drum instrument pattern is fed into a s/h which in turn can randomly select the pitch of the solo synth and the cut off frequency of both filters, with varying amounts ,sliders for each. Instant acid and from the 70`s!

In theory, for a time signature x/y, the y just indicates the value of the notes in a score, so whether it's 3/4 or 6/8 isn't really known unless the composer actually notated the music traditionally. Usually though people speak of 6/8 to mean the sort of groove heard in this song, and 3/4 for waltzes.
