Music-X had an intuitive way of working with midi unlike any other sequencers, fond memories for sure.

That's the most early 90s man in the most early 90s looking room ever. Thanks for finding and posting this!

You totally forgot about music he made which is as 90s as himself and his room.

Love this and the possibilities of music from the Musix X . still the standard in 2019.

If you are interested in the story of how Music-X got created, you can read about it here: medium.com/@dreamertalin/music-x-b4abc68d6f78 . And thanks for making this video!

Music X brings back memories. A long way from the Sadie and Pro Tools systems I work on now but that was my introduction to MIDI after my Soundtracker says. The Robocod poster (2:08) also brings back memories. Good times. 👍

Amazing. Just saw a comment from Ascend from Ascend and Ultravibe, stating that he made the classic jungle track Dred Bass on this program with a C64.

They are fairly common on the 2nd hand market, but if you want to save some money before diving in you should get WinUAE. It's a great emulator.

27:00 Good piano synth

Very happy people here...

2:07 Bart Simpson still hasn't aged!

Awesome! 😏 👍 ❤️

Cool, a Korg Wavestation! Sadly he hasn't really used it much for the sounds. Love that Bart Simpson poster.

1:12 This sequence plays out like a Tom Scott video

If you still have the Music-X 2.0 manual, let me know! The 1.0 is out there, but 2.0 is hard to find.

This is why I chose the Atari STE and Steinberg Cubase. A friend of mine used his Amiga with Music-X, and it just seemed so primitive and uninspiring to use. Also the Atari had MIDI built-in and the timing was tighter than anything out there before or since.

Not FL, we have gone a long way since then. Still a lovely sequencer. Called Music-X for the amiga computers. I was once in a studio with 6 keyboards, various modules and an Amiga 4000 at the center. To me that was like a spaceship cockpit. I totally nagged them to be able to play once in a while.

Can’t you read video titles?

is it fair to say that people construct music these days from just a series of blocks and same tracks combinations?. It seems these tools really do their best to reduce the artform into an as easy a way to construct lots of work

@LucyOLastic

Many do, yes, particularly in dance music genres, particularly loop based compositions. In pop music genres where there is a lot of repeated material, it is economical to use blocks to form verses choruses and bridges. It is good for additive structure, and one can create complex pieces this way, which develop. It has certainly helped speed up workflow, and make it easier for people to record and edit compositions. I'm sure it's not the only method in Music X, and that you can record an entire performance as if it were on tape, as you could do in programs like Cubase or CLab Notator. .
