[LAnonHubbard]

Awesome. Thanks for uploading.

[dvamateur]

Fantastic! It's so hard to find anyone actually playing something sensible on a synthesizer these days. Great work man! Also, great sound on the great instrument!

[vukproject]

great

[maestro300]

Awesome! I found that DX7 patch in my library and using it with FM7 (DX7 VST software synth) I also own a true DX7 but find myself using FM7 more just because patches are so much easier to browse- then I can also add effects like delay/chorus.

[exAequora]

love it.

got to be the best i have heard the DX7 played in a long time!

could you upload the sysex somewhere?

[maestro300]

If you own FM7 or have a real DX7 I can send you the patch.

[RFrayo]

@balledmaker crap. forgot to mention 1/4 to RCA ends. Forgot about that! I need to drag out the old KP. Been running everything through the MS-2000 lately.

[narfy]

I guess I'm view number 30,000. that was proper. :cD

[ballademaker]

how do you connect this kaos to your dx7 and futher to mixer thanks for help on that one

[RFrayo]

1/4" audio cables. Audio out on DX to audio in on KP, audio out on KP to input on mixer.

[gr8ape]

[tekkentool]

[InsidahDevelopment]

fucking proper!! :D

[polysmart]

A truly marvelous performance. Very enjoyable rendition.

[hvrhd1000u]

This is fantastic man! Your performance has a very good feel, and combining chords with melody in the right hand alone is very difficult, but you do it well. Great bass comping also. Very good technique and sense of rhythm. In all, very good musicianship.

[DonJuanDeMarco2]

I saw this a year ago, and never forgot it.

I thought this would be world famous by now !

Anyway, i just wanted to say, thats was gggreeeaaatttt!!

and i get quite emotional listening to this because it brings me back to my childhood in the 80's that was filled with magic like this !!

Thank you !

[locobeis]

[paped2505]

I owned a DX7 in a previous life and you brought some great memoires from the 80ies. Great work!!

[mrlithium69]

Nice video btw, I got a DX9 off ebay because I thought it woulda been just as cool as the DX7 and its clearly not, as i found out too late.

[Biopharmer]

:( dx7's aren't that expensive anyway.

Mine was though, because it has the E! expansion board. The internal battery died though, so everything gets erased when i turn it off!!!

[mundovacio]

awesome!!!

[sp2x]

verry nice i like it it's so pretty and the vidéo of this song is so nice to

[telecaster1963]

Good job!

[rg2027x]

Nice job man. I read somewhere that AHA wrote the song on a DX-7 so you're on the right path ;-) I've still got my TX-816, DX7-IIFD{love the unison mode in stereo!} great instruments and I'm always finding new ways to combine them with other keyboards in layers, stacks, etc.

[Beestisar]

Yes i like you and Depech Mode

[argusstudios]

Sensational. No other word for it.

[Patrickillian]

very good!!!!

[julskey]

Good keyboard and fx + good song + good player = Excellent performance!

I love that song by AHA so much. Could you also do "Everybody wants to rule the world" by Tears for Fears? Thanks.

[2606259]

Re A-Ha, Thanks for the info, you mentioned the patch is "MEDL XPRSV" I dont suppose you still have the file and if so would you e mail it to me?

Thanks,

[2606259]

Absolutely blown away! I dont suppose you could send me a midi file of the performance?

[fischek]

[ronnysoeberg]

Very nice :)

[kwd007]

I come to u as a humble servant...Teach me o great one!!

[AKITM]

The song is Take On Me by A-Ha for those of you who don't know. It was a huge hit from the 80's. I remember watching it on MTV when I was a little kid.

You play this song very well, it's not a easy song to play.

[Vyper360]

[civ1]

LOL! nice version of ah-ha's 'take on me' - I have a dx-7 too yes there very nice for an 80s sound or even weird things too!

[voltaspeeder17]

[fritzdimmel]

hi! this is really great! i'm playing this song with my band on keyboard, but your arrengement is really great!

could you just explain, how the sound was created (on DX7 -- how much influence has KaosPad, I don't know it really, but I have a DX7 at home!).

Thanks

Fritz

I love the patch! I was wondering if you could host it somewhere, considering their only a few KBs.

[CosmicGecko]

Wow, that was an amazing version. Looking forward to one with a complete ending soon. :-)

[grondo2001]

Don't worry it's coming....

[Motu9]

Nice version!

[gregthesenior]

amazing man....what preset is that ? , i was thinking like Clavi 2 or somthing like that. Nice touch at the end

[grondo2001]

Hi thanks for the comment. The patch is called MEDL XPRSV, and it's not a ROM preset but something I found on one of the 1000's of banks on the internet.
