SWITCHED ON AUSTIN - Synth studio & synthesizer store tour | Austin, TX

Somebody has got to explain to me how come the K-1 was built with a vector joystick, if it is not related to the Prophet VS or its offspring from Korg and Yamaha. Did the research and development people at Kawaii think it would be used to control one of those other models?

Unfortunately it's no longer a store. It's now just a repair shop. You can't really go in there and interact with the instruments the way you used to. It's pretty much a dark enclosure where you go to drop off your instrument

i love this video and your channel <3

my esq1 has been sitting on their repair deck for a year and a half now despite my repeated calling them to diagnose whats wrong with it and order new parts.

Wow what a great place thanks for the Tour :)

Nice video. Too bad not all the synths were turned on. Or clean. But it is nice to see 3 of ones that I have in my studio there. The Korg Polysix and Wavestation EX, a Moog Grandmother. Very cool!

Cool, thanks for sharing.

nice, thanks for the tour !

Nice

Fantastic 👍

thanks for vid. now i never have to go there.

Vintage dust!

Heyyy, that's cool. I bought my....um.... hmm. I could have sworn I bought some sort of synth from them.

cool little shop. interesting mix of old and modern gear. I could spend hours in there and then ask if they are hiring.

Love uploads like these! :)

My father used to own a Korg trident back in the day, he still regret to this day that he sold it. He kept his Oberheim Matrix 12 though, and his mini moog.

Actual music stores where I live are nonexistent. We used to have the chain of Daddy Junky Music stores, alas all of them gone! I miss being able to sample all the keyboards...so sad! So seeing this music store really brings back memories! 😎

I love these tours you do!
