BTS017: Avery Sunshine Chat

Behind the synth showcases the people bringing you Yamaha synthesizers. When Nate brought Manny Fernandez in to talk about the groundbreaking VL1 Synthesizer we knew it would be quite a conversation.  As Manny puts it, he was “one of about six people who really got the instrument”. Manny wrote the VL Expert Editor Programming Guide, a must-have for anyone programming the VL1. After the fourth hour (!) we knew we had to break this excellent chat into four separate “Behind the Synth” episodes. During each conversation you’ll hear audio demos from the VL1. The entire four-part series is both interesting and entertaining and anyone interested in synthesizers and product development will want to check it out!

In Part 1, Manny talks about the development of the VL1 and the engineer behind the technology, Toshi Kunimoto. There are some great audio demos of VL and Manny discusses the preliminary work with the sound design and product development team.
