Prophet64 Through Minimoog

Friday, July 7th, 2006


Prophet64 for the Commodore 64 playing through my Moog MiniMoog. I just wish I could get some cleaner sound out of the Prophet64. I’ve never heard recordings of Commodores sound as buzzy as mine. Maybe mine’s faulty? Either way, the combination of retro computer with retro synthesizer is quite fun to play with.
