Way a head of it's time. And those outfits would show up again thanks to Prince and his Purple Rain album/movie. wink

Nice find! I knew (and liked) this song, but did not know the name of it, thx!

Any of you know, what kind of synth was the left one, black piece with the nice effects (solo)?

Looks custom made that keyboard, loose wires on the top like a home made mod. Closest thing I could find was a Roland EP-30 Electronic Piano, maybe an early prototype of it??

Thank you for the info. In the 70s the synths were typically a big box with wires and a keyboard.

Did no notice that big RONALD sign on the box next to him? grin

A quick google and from what I can make out RONALD is a cheap copy of Roland stuff. indeed I saw the name and did wonder lol.
I found an effects box and a guitar pedal made by them, info is very limited on the web.

A while back I was checking out the history, sounds ect of Fender Rhodes. Very interesting and yeah a sexy sound. I came across this dude jamming and was blown away!!




and if you like messing with the so called "toy" keyboards of the 1980's check out Keen on Keys. He reviews them and does an awesome job. PSS480 gets my vote as one of the best he has covered so far to date but yeah ted machines might sound like one soon. wink

@MIK: yeah I like the old stuff, unfortunately but my card-code based PSS-102 is just too limited.
It sounded like a good starter for my kids with the built-in sound distorter mic, but ehh...

My preference is Moog Mini analogue sound, I have a VST from Arturia and a KORG microkey to play with.
No serious talents here, just for fun. grin

Same here, just for fun and nothing serious. I couldn't play a whole tune even if I wanted too type of thing. grin

Here's another classic tune, this time from the 80's. Enjoy!
