A Brief History of Synthesizers

This instrument is the reason why I love 60-80s funk music. R.I.P. Roger Troutman

Korg is game changer

40 years ago ... people 40 years ago ...thats a long time . I grew up in that era

উইকিপেডিয়ায় এই বিষয়ে বাংলায় কোনও এন্ট্রি নেই! এটাই আমাদের বিজ্ঞানচেতনা! তার একটা সাম্ভাব্য কারণ মনে হয় সচরাচর আমাদের "বিদ্রোহ ডমরু অনাহত বাজে ".

I was mesmerized while watching the video, thank you! It's excellent!

so, is the difference between analogue and digital synthesis, that analogue uses transistor operated oscillators, while digital uses microprocessors to generate an emulation of the analogue oscilator sound?

If you're gonna make a brief video about the history of the synthesizer, you should've talked about the Rocksichord. The Beach Boys used one in some of their songs (i.e. All I Wanna Do,) and it sounds fantastic.

Wendy Carlos was also a huge contributor to the creation of the first moog synth and a pioneer of the way we use synths today, as well as being one of the first openly trans artists (an extremely successful artist at that)

Oskar Sala ?

Great video ! I was very captivated.

Nice subtle touch there of placing a sine wave version of Anchors Away in the background of the Teleharmonium vs. the navy radio coms segment.

I bet the military thought it was alien music

Wow. I studied electronic music in the 80s through 1990 and this was sure a trip down memory lane! I first learned on an ARP 2600, we also had a Synthi and a Buchla. I remember when the DX7 came out and all of a sudden, MIDI was a thing. My boyfriend bought an ESQ-1. I went on to do graduate study under the designer of the Synclavier. And now I'm a massage therapist LOL :-)

fascinating

Synthesizers have been entertaining the music industry for over 70 years now, wow! It's been more than half a century.

This is brilliant, thanks for the work that went into this.

Who is here in isolation

Great video but its pronounced Moog not Moog.

Such a well produced video.
Thank you very much for making it.

what a wonderful video! thank you so much

Great job.

Epic

I wish Pythagoras was alive again, would like very much to know his reaction.

Such a wicked bit of kit- gave us the era of techno music, modern hip hop, EDM, Kanye , Daft Punk and many more

You never heard of Don Buchla?

There is something inaccurate in nearly every assertion made in this video. Don't make me list them.

Moog wasn’t the first theremin inventor!

Where is the buchla ???

great video keep it up

Lets goooooo watching this on class rn

Pay tribute to this post！

I love my acid techno

But what about the Yamaha DX7? That thing is important!

Very great video!

Nice video. Thanks
