Synth-Studio Weblog

Added a new verse to the beginning of the soundtrack.  I’m having a lot of fun with this thing.  I had to plug a 2nd MIDI cable into the XV-5080 so I could use the 2nd set of MIDI channels as the single group of 16 channels was not enough, now I have all 32!  Now I just have to watch the accursed polyphony limit.

Have I mentioned that I am really starting to love the XV-5080 now?  I still need to get some more SRX expansion boards, I really want to get SRX-04 (Symphonique Strings) and SRX-10 (Big Brass Ensemble), perhaps later on maybe SRX-03 (Studio) also. 🙂

Current synopsis:  It starts on a pirate or maybe viking ship, then you get shipwrecked into a woodsy area, you start exploring your surroundings, find a small clearing to a cave perhaps, then the monsters come out!  Then, you find the camps of a volcano-worshiping tribe (I need to add some volcano sound effects hehe), then perhaps venture a cave at the base of a mountain deeper in the forest to find inside it is a large empty dwarven hall or throne room.
