Jupiter-6: The Dystopian Synth

A Jupiter-6 stopped by for a few days so I thought I’d complete the trinity having done videos on the Jupiter-4 and Jupiter-8 last year. This synth has a reputation for having a “cold“ sound and it’s always been the more dystopian Jupiter in my mind. I wanted to explore whether there are any reasons for that and whether they’re legitimate, imagined or a bit of both. 0:00 Intro Jam 0:57 The Jupiter-6 1:27 Demo 1: Two-By-Four 2:02 VCO & Filter Chips 3:00 Demo 2: Pole-Dark 3:34 Modulation 4:39 Demo 3: LV-426 5:13 Demo 4: Gamaclang 5:28 Cost Cutting 6:34 Demo 5: Thumper 6:52 Demo 6: Cassette Memory 7:10 Presupposition? 7:34 Summary 9:12 Outro Jam
