Synth-Studio Weblog

I’ve been laying down track after track on my Christmas MIDI album for 2009…

I made one back in 2004 that the family seemed to really like, that was using only my Roland SC-8850.  This time around I am using mostly my XV-5080 and Fantom XR, with some D-550 and other synth’s thrown in the mix for some tracks as well.  It is shaping up nicely so far.  At the time of this writing, I have 12 tracks completed.

Here is one track to give you a taste of what’s coming:  Now Rock, Ye Rested Gentlemen, a ‘big band’ take on God Rest, Ye Merry Gentlemen.

This song was re-mixed and recorded using my Roland XV-5080 and Fantom XR with multiple SRX Expansion boards each.  Enjoy!
