This is one of my favorite Christmas songs, so I thought I should use one of my favorite Christmas presents for the 80's! I recorded this on my Yamaha Portasound PSS-570. I had this back in the 80's, but it got lost like many things from that time. Recently, I went out pawn shopping and found this keyboard for $45! It had cola spilled on it, so I had to clean it really well to get it to function again. I always loved having the rhythm section on board this synthesizer. The first verse I used Popsynth Patch, Pops drum pattern, and Bass variation 2. For the second verse I selected Horn patch, Disco drum pattern, with Bass variation 2. Finally, for the last verse I chose my own digital synthesizer patch creation (wave3, spectrum 3, modulation 4, attack 2, decay 3, and volume 3), custom drum sound (bass drum 2, snare drum 3, cymbal 1, extra percussion 3), and Bass pattern 3 variation 3. I dedicate this song to Micro Banshee! He has some awesome songs with these little mini-synth wonders!
