Description: Filmstrips 70s (presets for Repro-1 from blortblort) consists of 92 new sounds for U-he’s Repro-1.
When Urs announced that Repro-1 was on the job, I was thrilled!
The Sequential Circuits Pro-One (the “basis” of the Repro-1 design …) came out in 1981 … the same year I graduated from high school …
When some of my friends got their final exam cars, I got a Pro-One and a Fender Bassman 410 amp. (Thanks to parents!!!)
I spent several hours at a record store. I’m sure the good people at Music Mart would love NOT to see me on any other Saturday morning. True, by next year I had saved my summer labor money and bought a Roland SDE1000.
All that can be said is that the Repro-1 configuration is NOT everything that I spent many hours on 35 years ago. there is so much love in Repro-1 that I’ll touch on what’s at the top of the list:
The behavior of the envelopes is EXACTLY the same as in Pro-One! on loop repetition, arpeggio or sequencing, etc., you can transfer the attack to the filter envelope so that the filter starts to restart while it is still in the attack phase … by doing this over and over, all sorts of complex timing inconsistencies can result .. . to a very cool trick! Not many other synthesizers work this way!
Another thing that I have to thank the U-he team is the decisions about WHAT should remain true to the original and WHAT new will be introduced to make the Repro-1 even better than its predecessor. The “tweaks” page gives you access to invert the sawtooth waveforms, as well as a choice of oscillator, filter and envelope behavior … and I’m going to refrain from mentioning performance modulators that really take the synthesizer to another level.
For The Filmstrips, I wanted to get those sounds that I loved making so much, as well as nudge this beast to see what CAN be done with the new features included here. Hope there is something here for everyone. At first I planned to include only 64 presets … but I couldn’t help myself …
