New synth jam with Saruman and Yamaha DX7

Our friend Hector Génis is back with a new synth jam, this time on the Yamaha DX7. We also see a Yamaha CS30 synthesizer and the Strymon Timeline delay pedal. Watch as Saruman pops up later in the video. He is really enjoying the music, as am I. It has a sort of Italo-disco feel.

Mr. Puff and Yamaha PSS-470

Mr. Puff demonstrates unequivocally who owns this Yamaha PSS-470. From our friend Charles Whiley via Facebook.

The PSS-470 is interesting in that it incorporates Yamaha’s FM engine – with a few real-time parameters – into the case and design of a home keyboard. Of course, it also includes the typical features like a drum/rhythm engine with the obligatory “Bossa Nova” beat among others.

It’s been a while since Rags last appeared here on CatSynth. Last time she was singing her heart out to a Roland SH-101 and Xox Bassline.
