Roman Filippov (Sputnik Modular) this a short video demo of his new Yamaha CS-80 clone, Deckard’s Dream:
Deckard’s Dream is a new 8-voice polyphonic DIY analog synth design, inspired by the classic Yamaha CS-80 and the sounds of Vangelis‘ score for Blade Runner.
Details are still to be announced at the project site.
Is it an electric sheep?
no it’s a dying whale caught in a whirlwind
Do synthesists dream of soldering skills?
wet
Sounds like the intro to “Cars” by Garry Numan.
If he’s planning on marketing this, he had better hurry before Behringer comes out with theirs.
Behringer don’t do DIY
Except perhaps in this sense:
“Hi Behringer. My new synth is broken. Can you please fix it?”
Behringer: “Do it yourself.”
Don’t be silly. Why on earth would they say ” do it yourself” ? Like an large scale manufacturer the first thing they’d ask would be “is it still covered by warranty” Yes ?
Then fine we’ll either fix or replace it so long as the damage is not user related.
Behringer doesn’t do DIY. They just out-price it.
Roman has a long reputation for re-creating (or shameless cloning, depending on who you ask) some of the most complex synth modules ever made. Take a look inside a Buchla MARF and a DM and compare. This dude is not Uli chasing trends. He doesn’t need to “market” anything. Now ATSS… that dude needs to market- as he just resells Roman’s “kits” as his own brand. I love how in 2017 everything is compared to Behringer, it’s no wonder so much modern music is flat bland and uninteresting
Wow, a triangle LFO. So cool. -_-
It’s not a CS-80 clone without the compartment with the mini panel.
I hope it supports multidimensional polyphonic expression (MPE)!!!!
Someone wake the Android, it’s disturbing my sheep
