Halcyon is one of those tracks that's got a super strong sense association for me - first heard it in the opening of Hackers, and now whenever I'm at a window seat on a flight it plays in my head when the plane starts to descend. Even hearing it in this video, I started feeling a pressure change in my ears haha

This track was dedicated to their mother who was addicted to the tranquilliser 'Halcion' for many years. Also, the reversed vocal sample is a sample from a kirsty Hawkshaw track, who also starred in the video for the Orbital track.

congrats, you appear to have cracked the YT algorithm. loving your vids. i had a wavestation ex in early 90s, loved the crap out of it. i probably used debussy on wheels on some tracks back then in fact. editing on the SR is even worse than the EX. the plugin makes it all a piece of cake. recommend that for anyone who wants to get into some wavestation goodness in 2024.

My wife’s step dad has this, as well as a few other synths I may try to get from him. He hasn’t touched any of them in years, but man he has a lot. I got a Yamaha RY30 from him a couple years back that I love for making old school industrial, like Skinny Puppy and Frontline Assembly, or really old hocico, but has other essentials for older trance, and early electro, Depeche Mode stuff, and so much. Next time I go out that way to visit them, I’m going to see what I can get.

(I do like my D110 still though, because the analog section there has a lot to offer, especially when U stack) But in the Wavestation U could stack in time as well much more precisely, and more.

Hi nice video, but how to syncro this preset to daw tempo project?

@bleepsandboops

8 ай бұрын

Thanks! So - all Wavestations (hw and sw) can do tempo sync either internal or external (MIDI clock) so it should just work... but how the sequence syncs to the clock can vary from patch to patch: for slow pads this isn't so much of a problem, but for shorter loop-based wavesequences you sometimes find that 1 step in the wave sequence is actually a dotted 1/8th note or something... so although your tempo might be 120bpm, the sequence is playing back at a different tempo. The plugin manual covers a lot of this, and it's all transferrable to the hardware (albeit more buried under the menu) Good luck!
