I think modern analog emulations have bridged the gap sonically. The advantage of hardware today lies in other aspects like tangible control surfaces and spontaneous workflow.

All of these synths are immortalized in modern day computers as DAW samples. and workstation keyboards samples.

Most of these instruments were works of art to say the least.Great wild sounds that personified the 70's and 80's.You really had to know how to program these instruments just right.

This has been my favorite synthesizer run through video because you show each one doing a normal thing and then you show each one doing a weird thing and none of it is about showing off expensive gear, instead it's about showing off what the instrument can do. bravo!

I have the new re-issue Mini Moog. My dad had one when I was a kid and it used to amaze me with the sounds it made. I like the current trend for analogue synths.

Oh, _man_ -- that modular Moog puts out the most _amazing_ textures!

I still remember the Proph 5 in my middle school music class (mid 80's), everyone always fought to be on it.

probably the best sounding period for a analogue synths: played almost all of those shown here and still owning quite a few (MS 20, 800DV, SH2, Odyssey, MoogD, Prophet5)... sadly, had to sell AKS, EML101 and System100 (not listed here)

Awesome! I can't believe you included an ElectroComp here, as I have never seen anyone refer to that before. I took a college music course in Synthesizer and Tape Composition back in 1974. We used a Moog and an ElectroComp. While I much preferred the Moog, the ElectroComp was easy and fun to use. I bought a Moog Subsequent 37 a couple of years ago. I miss the old telephone switchboard like patchcords, but it's easier to use and understand with just knows. I have an EHX Synth9 guitar pedal I can throw my guitar or Casio keyboard through to dial in fairly decent sounds from other synths, as well as a couple of software synthesizers I can control with the Casio using Midi. Throw in the Moog and I have a seemingly limitless pallette of sounds to work with. I could never afford a synthesizer when I first heard "Switched On Bach" as a teen in the 2960s, and that persisted until very recently. But, gven how relatively cheap most synthesizers are today, we are truly living in an age of unprecedented sound synthesis capability.

Great Sounds and great synthies .....

You could have featured the Yamaha CS30, it's a bit an oddball in most synthesiser users book but is truly amazing in the range of sounds it can produce. It always gets overlooked because of its semi-modular layout and patch setting through switch positions. I think pretty much every sound you demo here i have had my CS30 create. (is there a CS30 plug in?) for those of you who know synths, here is a quick rundown of its features, 3 envelope generators (one of which is not a traditional ADSR having attack level and initial level settings instead of a sustain level, it is invertable too.) the other two are ADSR type, one of which is invertable giving 5 eg's to choose from. they can modulate pitch, frequency cut off and of course amplitude, also will modulate the LFO rate. There are two oscillators both have square and sawtooth plus a sine wave, from oscillator one.Both square waves have PW and PW modulation driven by a sine wave from the LFO. You can modulate oscillator one with oscillator two. it has two filters modulated by the LFO square sawtooth sine, external or Sample and hold and modulated by the EG's You can patch the filters to create a variable width notch filter, the filters can be high pass, low pass and band pass filters. The ouput signal from the LFO is only chosen at its destination, so each block can have a different modulation shape. i could go on but i would fill this page with its features. Oh yeah then there is the eight not sequencer also with interesting features......

Yeah i love these old rough original sounds, then twig them to your own specs.I have Korg wave station sound module,Korg Qw-1 sound module and Prophecy Synth,Roland JV2080.I love them all.

Great video 🎹

I love the Odyssey (may get the Korg remake someday), but only the 2600 could make the noises heard at the beginning of the Chicago song, "Italian from New York." That's Chicago's Robert Lamm reaching into the labyrinthine world of avant garde electronic music.

Nice to see the EML 100! Underrated gem.

Remember that 1970s TV show “In Search Of?“ I can hear some of the music from that show in these synthesizers.

I had an EML-101. Paid $700 for it in 1980. Boy do I regret selling it!

I had the Yamaha CS 5. I played in a duo. Had a Rhodes stage and the Yamaha on top for L hand bass. Talk about kicking. The footages went 2 - 4 -8 - 16- 32- and 64. There was a pitch slider on the left cheek block that raised or lowered the pitch up to one octave.. If the synth was at the 64' setting, I could play the bottom "C" and move the pitch slider all the way down ( lowered another octave giving a 128' footage stop) and you could hear the oscillation.

I'm CURIOUS: I've NEVER had enough money to buy ANY Synthesizer, BUT, I have a Kindle Fire Tablet. On the APP STORE, there is an APK called CAUSTIC 3.2. I IMMEDIATELY GOT IT. IT HAS 9 synths, a tonewheel (Hammond like!), a vocoder, 12 fx pedals that you can use (2 per Instrument), a mixer, ad a master board. The synthesizers include a modular (moog-type) that you can use up to 16 modules on( I made one that HAD 8 waveform generators (oscillators)). Once you've got a setup that you like, you save it, then when you want to use it go to the saved list and tap 'load' and it's there! The modular also has an arpeggiator, and an oscilloscope so you can SEE the waveform that you've created. The other synths are each different from each other: A pad synth, a synth that specializes in string and oriental type sounds, a Bass Synth, a sub synth, an 8 bit synth for those who want to go back to the Radio Shack Synth days. The modular synth also has a Machine Input module that sends sounds from ANY of the synths(up to 3 per M.I!) to the modular synth, which you can use the arpeggiator and/or oscilloscope on. IF YOU DON'T HAVE CAUSTIC 3.2, GET IT!!! "WHY?" ( This will cinch the deal!!!) IT IS FREE, FREE, FREE!!!!!!! p.s. Caustic can be connected, by MIDI, to a keyboard! 1 person from an ELP tribute band put me down for even posting this on FB! He laughed at me and asked if C3.2 would LOOK as impressive, on stage, as his MOOG Model 55. If I could talk to him in person, I'd say "Change your synth to sound like THIS, and back again." In LESS THAN 5 SECONDS I WOULD BE DONE!!! Then I would say "SO LONG, DUMB-$#!T" and walk away! IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS CAUSTIC 3.2 TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK OF IT!!!???? THANX!
