3:40 You know you're a geek when... you can play the theme from an 80s adventure game from memory. (Of course, I'm nearly as much of a geek for recognizing the Space Quest 3 theme variation offhand...)

No idea. I recognised the theme as Space quest, but then I was playing around with the space quest series round about 1998. Come to think of it, the test recordings I made right before trying to do some gaming videos on my channel contain a bunch of things, but one of the things I was testing was how to record DOS games - and the game I used to test this with was Space Quest 5... So... Yeah, I guess recent experience with such things helps a lot. XD

I really enjoy the short compositions at the end of these videos, they all sound great! I especially liked this one, that particular Celesta and Violin sound work really well together.

As a drummer/guitarist, I really enjoy and appreciate these keyboard vids! I've dabbled w friends keyboards in the past but after watching your channel I want to buy a nice new one and learn how to play it. Thanks for your inspiration!

Really appreciate that you still find some time to do these videos! Love them so much! This thing sounded awesome. That violin sounded really cool and unique.

Underrated channel. Love your work on both channels

I got one of these for Christmas when I was a kid. This brings back many happy memories. Thank you so much.

He would!

Using that potentiometer on the left with the longs legs at 7:12, you can tune the keyboard up or down. If you swap it out for a larger value/range potentiometer, you can detune the keyboard an entire octave or more in either direction. This same potentiometer is used in the entire PT lineup as far as I know. I made this modification to my PT-10, and it produces some incredible bass notes now. Since the value of the potentiometer changes the microprocessor's clock speed, it will affect everything connected to it, so the tempo of ROM cartridge songs will also be affected. I have noticed a slight bit of lag in the keys if you make the pitch too low, and there's a point where the microprocessor's synthesis will just stop functioning due to the incredibly low clock speed. Just thought this might make a cool topic for a future video, since it applies to all PT keyboards.

Great to have you back on this channel David. I could watch these all day.

I've waited so long for your video the waits are worth it!! Keep it up Dave:)

I've been following your channel for a while now. While the videos are always great, It's been even more awesome to see how your playing and composition skills have improved over the years! Keep up the good work!

Finally some 8-bit keys! :D Nice intro music and multi track composition in the end! I'm always amazed how good tunes you make with these simple keyboards.

Great to see this channel still active!!

Holy cow! That song you played at the end! Beautiful!!

I was really jamming out to that multi-track at the end. Great job! :D

Yay! I've been waiting for a new episode for such a long time.

Love that Space Quest 3 tune in there =), also great to see a new 8bit keys episode, feels like forever.

IT'S ALIVE!!

This was super interesting. Thanks for sharing! I really enjoyed the song you made with it

Great new video 8-Bit Keys. Hope to see many more.

Holy cow your intro music gets more and more wild with each episode

Man I love it when you make music with your keyboards, its the icing on the cake!

Ok, a PT 100. I think that you surely has a nostalgia overload about this keyboard, I really wanted to see you with that keyboard in your collection because of that photography that you occasionally used in your videos. Actually I had a surprise with this review, because I don't ever knew about that is possible hacking this keyboard. Now I imagine what a potential can be got this keyboard in the proper hands. Nice review David and keep doing that this series stays so entertaining as this video.

I love this version of your intro theme lmao gets me pumped!

Finally a new 8-bit keys ep! Thank you so much!

Great video and nice final song !

I loved your song! These videos keep me motivated to play music.

Eee, I missed "8-Bit Keys"! You are my go-to channel to let out my inner nerd, because both of your channels fascinate me!

I love your videos!!! My son watches your videos almost everyday.

So glad to see an 8bit keys episode!

Best multitrack song ever in an 8 bit keys video. Excellent work, David.

Welcome back!

Hey! We missed you here, I'm glad you're back!

What a walk down memory lane :-) love the intro music!

A well done multi-track recording for the return of 8-Bit Keys!

Love the new Intro! Greetings from Germany. Leon.

You really are multi-talented! Bravo!!!

The music you played on the keyboard, I like this!

I know that it's not really a keyboard, but I'd love to see a review on any one of Casio DG models. Great video as always, glad to see another one on this channel!

Please David, keep going on this channel, you are the best and there is still so many 8-bit fans out here :) !!!!!

FINALLY!!!! OMG I've been waiting forever for this.

I don't play keyboard but I'm still addicted to this channel somehow. It's taught me a lot about them at least. Thanks for the new video.

Love the modulation on the theme.

I love your work in 8 bit keys and 8 bit guy! I would like to see a key-tar episode, I have always wanted one since I was a kid in the 80’s and am curious about the history/origin of the key-tar.

You made my day. Continue working hard I like it.

I notice that Greensleeves is David's go-to track when doing something with a flute-like sound.

I love that song you did at the end.

I'd love for you to do random music on keyboards like this, you have a creative mind when it comes to music, lovely to listen to!

Welcome back!!

Great video! I'm sure you been asked about the CZ-101 more than once, but I'd love to hear your opinion on that keyboard's fascinating sounds/design as well as phase distortion synthesis in general. I understand that you typically prefer to review amateur keyboards, but I think that would make for a really cool video! Thanks again for the quality entertainment! Cheers!

First time commenter here! That’s my favorite song you’ve made with a keyboard so far! Limitation can actually make for some amazing results. 🤟🏻

I had a small monophonic Casio keyboard, too. Thanks for the great video.

I totally headbanged to the intro tune.

thank you for another episode

Really nice tune, one of my favourites so far!
