Fargo’s Frenzie

stylized portrait of fargo from eureka

Composed entirely of hardware synths in my studio collection, including a Yamaha MM6, Yamaha YTP-320, Roland D-5 and Casio CTK-650. No VST synths, with the exception of a simple kick drum from Monster Drums VST. I thought this was going to be a simple session… no fussing around with VSTs, just all readily accessible hardware keys within reach. But this experiment turned into a nightmare when I tried to route MIDI to and from, so I could have the flexibility to use quantization. The MIDI routing created so many more problems than I’d expected. But I must admit, the end result sounded pretty good. Will I try this approach again? Probably not.
