The Casio VL-1 was the first synthesizer of Casio’s VL-Tone product line, and is sometimes referred to as the VL-Tone.
Released in 1981, the VL-1 is notable for its kitsch value among electronic musicians, due to its cheap construction and its unrealistic, uniquely low-fidelity sounds.
Features:
- LCD display capable of displaying 8 characters.
- Real-time monophonic music sequencer, which could play back up to 99 notes.
- 10 pre-loaded rhythms, which included waltz, samba, swing and bossa nova.
Resource:
- Maximum Cheescore – the ultimate Casio VL-1 site.
- Casio VL-1 sample library
- Freeware Casio VL-Tone emulator
- The Casio VL-Tone manual
I love Casio’s and great post. A friend and mine did a Casio Christmas record with Casio instruments and games only. You might enjoy.
Since we bought so many Casio’s, we also just released a Drum Loop and Sound Library CD-ROM with all the classic Casio’s. You can check all this out on our website http://www.kasiokristmas.com
does anyone know if these output a stereo or mono signal…trying to determine if mine is broken or just mono haha!
It’s mono!
