[MoneySeekin1]

[BeullyyM]

[bryonhawj]

[adukamaster]

[derTommy]

you cant put love in a digital fiddle and you cant here any passion in it

[RachelETrapp]

I've got to get one of these...FUN! I also play violin, never say this kind before!

[Yannic18]

Sidechain rulez :D Amazing work!

[heylocr]

[massarde9591]

pls pls pls pls

[ARYT13]

Can you do a version without iPad? :D

[DeathNoteShadowBlade]

Download please and can you do a violin version of this?

[imasianawesome]

No offense but its horribly out of tune in a lot of parts

[ahvostik]

@imasianawesome I completely agree. 

[pauldateh]

@imasianawesome pitch-wise, the program is a little difficult to control, but don't forget that it's a just an ipad app that's meant to be used for FUN. so there's no need to take it so seriously. :)

[AyameMooreAhn]

3 1/2 hours???

wow.

[ericgene]

you should do a Tron:Legacy cover with this Shmule thingy

[askajemiraz]

You simply amazing man! Keep it up!!

[ZznanaozZ]

so cool!!!!! :X

[cbckidz]

EPIC BRO!!!..-...  i had to subscribe right after this magnificent display of talent - if you put 15 tracks like this on a production and i will buy it for sure.

[DragonMaster785]

Do you have a ceclio violin? (I think thats how you spell it) Looks similar to mine and has that same sticker on the side.

[XoKibasMineXo]

Woahhhhh O__o

so cool 

[IceAngelKaoru]

For 3.5 hours this was...well, EPIC. Holy cow. Love! <3333

Question: What's the pretty piece playing during the transition into your quick blurb at the end?

[Ldinos]

can I find it on ipod??

[tranesfc54]

1:56 to 2:10 the best part

[twilightvoices16]

That was cool O.O

[k00ly0y0]

i cant believe how amazing you are

since the first video of you and inka one , this ride has been amazing to listen

[rubiksturtle]

o kewl it is on an ipad. imma get it. if i ever get an ipad. nvm...

[rubiksturtle]

was tat on an ipad?

[kAOOOxD]

hey paul, this sounds really great.

i'm just wondering, what music programs do you use to create your beats?

[MrStivers]

The opening of Beethovens Symphony no. 5 then Montagues et Capulets aka Dance of the Knights from Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet

[pauldateh]

@MrStivers yup!!!

[aimanazlan90]

3 and 1/2 hours to explore the app and made this video? Impressive!

[tejeiro]

So good ,nice

[Aluta37]

So awesome! I keep listening to this over and over again

[bartkwan]

This shit is fucking bad ass. Sorry for not using enough bad words.

[skullking27]

Getting a ipad next week so getting this app :D



[ThePieman10101]

@goofparade apparently you know nothing of the violin or about smule that was an amazing performance for just three hours as a 4 year violin student I am blown away by that app

[phoenixknits]

Dude that was like awsome. I was fisting pumpin' to the music. I could imagin this song in a high profile club or somethlin'.

[icarlysupport778]

love the song

[JiLLyPooP]

hmmm awesome! :D

...you have scars on your forehead..boo :[

[AthleticBeast63]

bethoven i know and Bach??

[saqibtoofat]

the magic fiddle is cool... but the real violin just has that deep sound which makes it AWSOMELY AWESOME

[rslane32]

why are there only three strings?

[djwizo5000]

Nice!

[LynnieDerPooh]

Dear Paul Dateh,

I would absolutely love it if you would please play the theme from "Schindler's List" on violin.

Sincerely, A fan

[Meteshadow101]

in the begging it kinda sounded like Star Wars- The Imperial March by John willams.

[KAPOLLO101]

I had to mute my ipad for the ave marie tutorial. My parents were in the room. So my vibrato lesson was quet :(. Lol still not as good as my trusty real violin XD

[odonn103]

Dude, Paul, this is awesome. Nice work.

[cosmic53]

Violin Hero :-)

[MophieZ]

LOL I got exactly same hoodie as you and im wearing it right now

[Nightwing20]

it sounds a bit out of tune...lol

[sodapop5499]

IPAD!!!! xDD

[kawaiikaida]

Wowwwww *-* Your creative skills baffle me *-*

[HeyLookItsUrFace]

jeez why are people so angry? IT'S AN IPAD.

[watsupyo888]

incredibly fast for 3 hours handling of an apps

[Plazman]

Need to autotune that thing

[Toyman6000]

can see your face reflect now and again cool

[JessicaRabbit1234567]

Thats so cool, it sounds so creepy lol

[katelilith]

Wow, I wish I had a music studio in my house too

[boobanie]

i like the house-ish music/techno but

with the violin sounds like scary halloween music ;P

[Lastangels]

could you please tell me what software do you use to montage video and how to devide a screen to severals

Thanks )

[iMushhie]

This is kind of like MGM, don't you think? O:

[watsupyo888]

@iMushhie quite a few videos have been inspired by MGM, but in different aspects of the video

[FiSHGRAPHICS]

@pauldateh Tons of talent my friend... the app sounds like some of the notes just don't hit right. Like they went up a half step instead of a whole step or something... I don't know. You rocked out though, great video. I just wish the app was able to keep up with your talent.

[doomranger8]

great sounds but really using something from the apps, really sounds better seeming as its all been put through logix and sounds ten ties better by the sonds but still great

[CognoscenteSkills]

The music sounds Indian no offense lol

[emhscholar]

sonds kinda off the app not you

[Scirmm]

You are great, your imagination is amazing.

[Kawaiililhuihui17]

omg that was cool um is that only on the ipad or it can be on the ipod too?

[Dholmes1022]

awesome video and song, when I get a iPad I will definitely get that app for it. Now correct me if I am wrong but I heard parts of Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor and Prokofiev' Romeo and Juliet am I right?

[pauldateh]

@Dholmes1022 haha, you got the prokofiev right, but i wasn't specifically referencing bach. the other theme i was quoting was beethoven.

[Dholmes1022]

@pauldateh duh, Beethoven's fifth... can't believe I missed that... and I call myself a composer... :P

[steviesofa]

Fully sick dude.

iOS music apps are really pushing the iPad's capabilities.

Rock on!

[Edwuadu]

lol nice

[Stemsoup]

2:10-2:14 sounds like a part from Devil went Down to Georgia by Sublime! :D

[pojo10]

Nice mane

[SoonerShankle]

genius! <3 it!

[aly1mail]

That is so awesome! Very creative. Love the sound. :)

[RobinchwaN1]

yeiii!! excelent video!! :D

[projektista]

Awensome XD

[jello75146]

prefer the real thing, but cool app!!!!!!

[saqibtoofat]

AWESOME YOU MADE THAT CATCHY TUNE AND THE VIDEO IN 3 HOURS!!! WHOA

[EdradLumph]

some of it sounds off

great video nonetheless o.o

[scissortastic]

I love it!!

[TheHolyHandgrenade3]

thats 1 funky beeatttt, house, house, house-music

[MusicalGViolin]

hhahahaha ;) 

[moppelkotze789]

you should make a project with david garret

[M0nstershit]

@moppelkotze789 haha please not, paul would loose so much creativity! :)

[moppelkotze789]

@M0nstershit oh yes could be but maybe it would be ok for one or two songs :D

[Gwiynher]

I prefer nine thousand times the real violin >_<

[foxtk99]

@Gwiynher that's not the question -_-'

[magoaspa]

new taste huh?? not bad

[0asian1nvasion0]

that.... is one cool app... too bad i cant play a fiddle =P

[EMBAR93]

jeez...the things that talented people can do....haha......like the beat.

[JustMeGoesEos]

like your kind of music

keep your work up!!

thumbs up!!!

[slickshark89]

this...was amazingly sick.

[TakkaMichelleDoan]

i misread this for a moment...

"Paul Dateh and the Middle Finger"

ehh?!?!?!??!

nice beat :D

[Hydrahealer]

It's nice i just feel like the magic fiddler is lacking somehow

[nerdfamily]

@Hydrahealer ummm... perhaps the fact thats its actually an ipad. lol

[AbyK07]

haha nice :)

[cooliorick]

epic man

[iEstudy]

reminds me of mysteryguitarman! but yours was WAYY awesomer than he would have made it xD! <3

[KoKoTheGorilla2066]

Are you the chinese, korean, phillipino, or what? sorry very curious

[Ninjas2point0]

Great video! Watched it a TON of times! Go Paul!

[PurpleBouncingBall]

They should have a PaulDateh Hero game i would buy it

[Stressed2Capacity]

New video from Paul! This was EXCELLENT! Thanks for sharing :-)

[o2me2]

Thumbs up. As Always, Awesome. Thank you.

[sinedip01]

did they let u keep the ipad lol. awesome vid btw

[animaniac126]

does the Magic fiddle have only three strings?

[hehehehexp]

hmmm... I have to say, this is probably the first thing of yours I've heard that I didn't like.... part of it sounded out of tune (maybe it's just me) and it gave me a headache...

but keep up the good work in general. :)

[litoXvannie]

doood thats fcking amazing! XD

[scarletwater]

Pretty cool and great effort but nothing compares to your violin

[Hemo0o89]

sounds like arabian music !

[xqingthingx]

why are there only three strings D:



[seifer93]

Smule is a really great iApp Instrument Developer. I have their Ocarina app. It isn't great on the iPod, but on iPhone its amazing!

[kmnhvo]

Beethoven FTW!

V for Victory!

[cheriekshin]

Hahaha ohmg that's awesomeee~~~ :D

[tehdog22]

nice, though sounds al little out of tune (too low) to me?

[roboman32]

amazing

[chau42]

that's sick! :)

[redkb]

Totally awesome!

[viczhouforever]

So, you have an iPad?! :D

I still can't get over the fact that people actually have them... they're soo... coool!

[chobitsai1]

did you create your own song, or base it on a real one? it sounds pretty cool!

[Blazdavideos]

sick.

[MrClick55]

It nice to see that it actually sounds like a real instrument. There is too much fake autotuned stuff out there now. Cool demo.

[weshie]

that's just great :)

[touchtheskiesx]

Fantastic ;)

[Carevillepeasant]

Awesome

[gudaymista]

iheart paul dateh

[visno]

cool app. but nothing beats the real thing paul. we accept no substitutes :)

[constantanimefreak]

What happened to Violince?

[fatimmortal]

DJ Paul'D, for the fucking win.

[KitosAEK]

Love 1:56 !!!

[VolcanicMegma]

it hurts my ears

[bladewolf39]

awesome but real violin still wins lol great experiment though man. not all of lifes problems can be solved with an iTunes app

[prdtobfilipina]

sick!

[bjhMus1C]

it's pretty flat in some places... i prefer the real violin. cool experiment though

[LibJumper]

Real Violin still wins.

[AsianConverter]

I'm not sure what's more awesome - the video or the app??? :/

[SiIentAzn]

nice! now they need to make an ipad shoulder rest =P

[theTank77]

kickass beat



[saturos600]

very good!!

[freakinsocks]

I loved the sound when you played your normal violin and the beats in the background with magic fiddle... pretty cool!

[ellie311]

a new fun toy =)

[eveecooper]

haha it's cool... though a little flat in places! It's not quite as good as a real one, eh?! :P

[Peachies]

that's pretty cool!

[shiramarimar]

that is sooo cool. in every video that you are posting, i can your passion in it. keep it up! =]

[minussthes]

that looks awesome, but i can only imagine how awkward it felt to play with a ipad to your neck.

[jdenho]

ur an inspiration!! keep it up!! awesome

[Backatwon]

Cool!!

[ZillieZephyr]

I like real fiddle better... but it's still cool.

[tsayerin]

oh i thought it said the middle finger at first. hahahahhaha

[TheCokeDrinker]

thats amazing! :)

[AquaMarYne92]

funny i was actually watching this on my ipad.

[JIYkp]

I'm just waiting to see this as an advertisement somewhere.

[somewheresomebeach]

Total awesomeness. 

[Thaibebop]

Apple should use this as an add, sweet!

[RandomOuO]

How much more beast can you get....

[navndu]

Are the strings the same as violin?

I only saw 3 so I'm guessing it's G, D and A. or D, A and E...

Awesome video and app! :D

[chewyann13]

I love that you play it like a real instrument in the way that you hold it :)

[Pa11Pie]

That so cool!!! I play Violin!

[OdinAlderwood13]

simply awesome, nice beat, awesome "bollywood" style violin sound, TWO BIG THUMBS UP!!!!

[Richpence]

you need to check out an app called morphwiz for ipad, its like that only its a mega synthisizer, you could make tons of stuff with it :)

[adventerer]

Seriously, wow FAVOURITED! This word gets tossed around alot but i'm seriously mean it: amazing.. i'm speechless, seriously, just... wow!

[kitty2814]

That's pretty cool!!

[jnicole93]

THIS IS AWSOME!!!!

[barefoothero]

wicked! that is amazing Paul!! I can't stop playing it. nicely done!!!

[veenbeen]

i like how you can see the reflection of your face on the ipad!

[Awesumsauce100]

Paul Dateh. You have made my day. Again. QwQ.

[thefastones]

sounds fantastic!!!!!

[DaVv3e]

hmm what string(s) did they remove though? cool video tho! in only a couple of hours :o can you make it fretless? :p

[AllTom]

@DaVv3e which string is removed us customizable in the settings, and yes, you can make it fretless (and change the colors! hah)

[DaVv3e]

@AllTom cool, wish I had an ipad :p

[HaileISela]

it seems to be quite accurate on the fingering. but apparently the length of the "fretboard" is not the same as the violin's, is it?

[lokeuh87]

cool, nice done paul ;-)
