This vintage 1985 tutorial, via matrixsynth, offers an Introduction to Synthesis.
Dean Friedman of New York School of Synthesis discusses the basic Building Blocks of Sound & Synthesis. The video is a little dated – but still offers a good introduction to synthesis and also a little insight into the state of synths in the 80′s.
I wonder what that guy is doing today.

This is actually a really good video! The principles are just as sound as anything I’ve heard before (for an introduction into synthesis). He’s got a good voice and good teaching style. Give it a watch!
Well-loved. Like or Dislike:

This video was made in 1985 ? The into shows a Korg M1, and correct me if I am wrong but wasn’t the Korg M1 manufactured between 1988 & 1994 ? if so, how could this video be
made in 1985 ? I’m confused.

The synths in the freeze frame image above are the Roland Alpha Juno-1 and the Sequential Circuits Prophet 600. Due to the Alpha being present, this dates the video at late 1985 at the “soonest.”

Still an incredibly useful series to watch if you want to learn the basics, really nice that someone found it and encoded it!
