Welcome to SynthKeyboards

Welcome to my new blog SynthKeyboards! My name is Vlad and thank you for dropping by.

I have been passionate about electronic music from a young age.  My first electronic keyboard was my Casiotone MT-70, which my mother purchased in Singapore in 1983 for $300. Despite its primitive sound generation, I still use it to this day as you can just take it out and play it.

I also had a Commodore C64 home computer, which was famous amongst electronic musicians for its sound chip, the SID-6581 – which implemented a 3-voice analogue subtractive synth – vastly superior to anything that other home computers had at that time.

Today, my other synths include a Korg Microkorg XL Analog Modelling Synth and Korg Electronic EMX-1 Music Production System (basically a drum machine with some synth capabilities).
