The
VL-Tone
app contain the factory presets and rhythm patterns in
all their distorted and noisy glory, carefully sampled
from an original Casio VL-1. Never have so few bits been
sampled by so many for so little.
Casio's strange VL-1 instrument sold
1,000,000 units between 1979 and 1984. Trio, the
German band, used it to record their huge hit "DaDaDa",
and bands like Human League, Devo, The Cars followed
suit. And 30 years later it is still backing tracks
by Moby and Fergie.
Note that as this is a sample
player, you can't edit your own sounds.
