The Vintage Computer Festival SoCal, scheduled for February 15-16, 2025 in Orange, California, will feature two computer-based vintage MIDI sequencing workstations.

My booth, as part of Deep Signal Studio‘s, will feature two vintage computers MIDI sequencing workstations. Attendees will be able to play with the systems, which will be connected to vintage synths, samplers and drum machines like a Roland Juno 106, Emu Emax, and Sequential DrumTracks.

A MacSE FDHD will run Opcode EZ Vision v1.0, Vision v1.02 and an Opcode Professional Plus MIDI interface. A Pocket 386 running MS-DOS will with a Roland MPU-IPC-T MIDI interface in the Pocket 386’s ISA expansion board will be running Magnetic Music’s Texture v4.25.

We will give attendees a crash course on these earlier forms of computer-based MIDI sequencing. You will be encouraged to compose a song the way artists and producers would have done it around 1989. The compositions can be recorded two-track, so it can be encoded as an mp3, emailed to the attendees, upload to Soundcloud or burn to a CD.

Or you can just hang out and chat about MIDI, vintage synths, and old computers.

What else to expect at VCFSoCal:

* Aisle of vintage PCs to explore
* Exhibitors showing off their latest projects like modern interfaces or new software for old computers
* Interactive exhibits and retro gameplay
* Lovingly preserved historic machines
* Consignment area to buy and sell retro tech
* Tech veteran stories and presentations every hour
