Wow Matt, thanks for shouting out my band.

Awesome video dude, my auntie had gave me one of these years back as she was going through old stuff she was gonna throw out. Can't believe how good it is.

Nice job Matt, that was so cool

This makes me so happy.

Thanks Matt! I've had a circuit bent sk-1 for about 5 years (my favorite piece of gear I own) and somehow never took the time to learn how to use the envelope select feature. The circuit bent features provided enough of variety but now I'm excited to incorporate envelopes and see what kind of new sounds I can come up with.

Awesome stuff man! Keep it up

Wow. I’m in love with this.

super good video, exactly what i was looking for! thanks a bunch. i was so amused at your Runescape comment also, i thought the exact same thing as soon as i hit the trumpet button hahaha

i was sold from the intro music 🤧👍🏾

I adore wondrous bughouse, had no idea Trevor used an SX1000. Awesome stuff

Ive recently found one of these on my local marketplace. I like to use it as a chord base with my Casio VL-1 and it really sound dreamy/lo-fi, 80s' vibe. So far, I havent used so much the sampling function, bc on board sounds are very useful for the music Im trying to make

Great content. I love your aesthetic. I subscribed!

best walk through of this synth on youtube! thanks :)

this is my fav lil keyboard i’m playin it right now! 🐇

I have this wonderful keyboard!! Always a great old synth.

Very cool...I used one of these for a bit in the 80s but I do like your approach, and I was naive to the different envelopes.

Brass Ens is my favorite SK1 sound which is a 8bit resample of the CZ3000/5000 Synth Brass preset. I do love that sound along with the drums. I own this keyboard still and the SK2100. Take a guess which one I prefer to play with?

Jan 2023: Loved mine - got it that same holiday it came out - '85 or '86? Muffly 8-bit sampling but was a hit at family reunions and just experimenting around. Eventually found a used SK-5 and enjoyed it similarly. Wish I didn't sell them 20 years ago on Ebay. :/

Back in the 1980s they used to sell cardboard overlays for the gen to Mark off your patch settings, in the days before mobile phones and digital cameras. If I create any patches i want to keep on my analog gear I just sample to my iPad which has the added advantage of allowing me to use them polyphonically
