MFB really stands for meaty frickin beast. it sounds great.

Another interesting instrument. I get more envious with every video! Must get my synths (such as they are) set up & experiment a bit this winter. Keep up the good work.

Love MFB! The 522 is my favorite drum machine. If you ever consider selling, I’d love to buy this. The album sounds so accurate to the 60’s and 70’s! Great work!

as a guy that owns a 3 moogs I can say that this sounds pretty damn good no cap @@VintageKeysStudio

"Do something musical with a synth ..." Good Lord that'll never catch on. These days I thought that the whole point of a synth was for making KZread videos :) Interesting demo though, thanks.

3:27 - According to rumours the sausage controlled oscillator is the next big thing, after the mushroom controlled filter and the blotter controlled envelope. Maybe more about soon on Vintage Knob Records (in a parallel dimension) ;-)! It's quite bold to give the advice to use a synthesiser to play actual notes, but this is a nice contrast regarding the big mystery how they actually made the tone wheels that small to fit in the little Lite's casing ... All the best :-)!

Oh, the spider beating the fly caught me off guard- delightfully!

Loved this video so much, finally a musical video of this cute little thing :) I have the MFB Synth Lite II, the sounds can be saved on it, still in love with it!!!

Thanks very much! It is a wonderful little synth and is one of my prized possessions!

Does Sam at “look mum no computer” know you have this? Also Hainbach? Fascinating useful little box.

I lost my Tomita vinyl album in a move! Thanks for reminding me about him....

Ive never played Piano... but i could have so much fun with that.. would it connect to a V-Drums kit Steve??

Hmmm I am sure it would, although it can only accept one midi channel at once so would probably only be triggered from one drum… I don’t know v drums though so i could be wrong

In fact ignore that - yes I think it would work because you can assign each drum to a different midi note and play it that way! So yes

Bitchin' toy. I couldn't help thinking of Dr. Evil with your hand and that sleeve twiddling the knobs. Would you possibly consider collaborating on songs? The stuff that flows out of your head is brilliant.

does the sound of the synth comes from the speaker then captured by the same mic that records your voice ? I'm an MFB fanboy, they actually repaired one of my drum machine units, several month before Manfred passed away

Hi - all our videos are recorded with mic(s) on whichever speaker(s) we use, and a separate mic to pick up the voice. In extended musical passages, the voice track is faded out so it is just the instrument through the amp

@@VintageKeysStudio thanks for the detailed answer :) that would be awesome to hear the signal of the synth directly plugged into the audio interface ! Cheers and love from France :)

What do you think of the synth lite 2?

@VintageKeysStudio

Sadly I have never played with one - I would imagine it is just as good as this one

Can this synth be played without a midi controller ?

It can be triggered by pressing a couple of buttons together, but nothing musical as such
