RSR - Vintage Synths: Yamaha MU5 (Performed by Penthouse Zen)

A GM tone generator with a button keyboard on VHS video cassette-sized housing as in the QY Series. Because it lacks sequencing features, the MU5 is designed to be used by connecting it to a computer. Mobile tone generators were in demand in the DTM market at the time due to the soaring popularity of laptop computers. The MU5 can be battery-powered and can function as a keyboard, so a connection to a laptop is the only thing needed to enjoy producing music anywhere. / /
