The Casio VL-1 is a low cost monophonic keyboard from the year 1981. The Casio VL-1 offers a calculator, some rhythm patterns, preset sounds and basic synthesis. You can change waveforms, LFO speed and envelopes.

While the editing procedure is little kludgy, programming custom sounds and adding a little reverb (from a Lexicon MPX500) can take the VL-1 synth into interesting new territory, as demonstrated in the video.

The Casio VL-1 was also used on recordings. It was used by Human League, Trio (da da da..), Stevie Wonder, Vengaboys and Robbie Williams. The VL-Tone is a real classic Casio!
