keybdwizrd plays Glass Shop (original improvisation)

[Ahiachebel]

I love it! the solo reminds me rick wakeman style, and for me it is a great compliment :)

[MarctheDarc]

As always a splendid performance! I wish i had your kung fu with the keys!

Perhaps then i'd get more views ;-) hehe

But seriously, you're a champion!

[keybdwizrd]

@MarctheDarc Thank you very much!

[FCO0710]

I'm really jealous of the little phatty, they seem like a lot of fun. How do you like yours?

[keybdwizrd]

It's nice, but expensive for what it does. I like playing it live, using it for improvisational solos - it can be a very expressive instrument. But I don't use it for recording much.

[Sanzeron]

Sounds like Runescape music ...

And no, its not an offense ... its pretty good...

[guitarharpsichord]

more original improv's welcome anytime!

[jomarcavalcanti]

I'm allways impressed by your vids.. even with the arpegio on.. I can't see myself having and worst of it playing a micro just to little amount of keys.. and the sound you get with you lp and effects sounds great.. congrats again.

[keybdwizrd]

Thank you!

[iamtyping]

if you dont mind me asking, what program do you, personally, use to record/upload your compostitions directly to your pc?

[keybdwizrd]

I use Digital Performer 5.13 on a Mac.

[TheDIGIMOUSE]

wow you blown me away nice work

[KutWrite]

Great!

Do you record directly to the computer, or through the video camera's mike, or... ?

[keybdwizrd]

I record directly into the computer - no microphones.

[muppetshow76]

well done you play good,hope to see more from you

[sailjunkie]

Really nice stuff...stupid question (as I've not had a chance to research this)...was that a Philip Glass piece?

[keybdwizrd]

Thanks, no, just something I improvised on the spot.

[dono01]

Hello there. I really like what you've done with this ever so nice korg product. I have been looking for that patch on my micro x, and I can't seem to find it. Is it factory, or something you editied up? Thanks!

[keybdwizrd]

Thanks, Try Combi B103.

[Jrayk1]

That's a really nice LP sound. It's so solid, let slippery, like soap!

[Jrayk1]

What was it that made you get the Phatty over the Voyager? Real Analog Control, price, or do you already have a Voyager?

[keybdwizrd]

What actually happened was that I'd been thinking about getting an LP, and then I ran across a Stage Edition in a store when they first came out and didn't care for the look. I knew that a limited number of Tributes had been made (1200) and figured I'd better get one before they were all sold, so that was what drove my decision at the time. I want to get a Voyager someday, but $3000+ for an analog monosynth is a big investment.

[q0guy]

yea your right $3000 is way too much for me to pay for a monosynth I'd rather get the Virus TI Polar you have

[CTRLSHFT]

The Voyager RME is a really great alternative to buying the kb version; I purchased one on ebay for around $1700 or so. Guess it depends on what you're looking for performance-wise, as obviously the kb version's playability advantages with the touch pad and more spacious knob-layout are hard to beat. That said I sold my tribute edition and bought the rme + both vx units and don't regret the rediculous amount of awesome that's come from it. cheers to both of them, moog rules. :)

[artrock26]

Love the playing :) nice choice of keyboards! can't go wrong with Korg and Moog :) great sounds :)

[CleverDjembe]

This would make a great prog-rock song! I really dig those kinds of icy/glass sounds that you play on the MicroX :)

[CleverDjembe]

I mean like a longer epic with a full band and everything... this is like the intro

[keybdwizrd]

Thanks. Now I'll just have to work on finding a band... :)

[dannicool11]

this song is great :) well played :)

[cranes666]

rifado

[CHENZKING]

Very nice...Love the "And you and I" patch on the LP

[zenderwahit]

Ah! GReat stuff mate :) You gotta put more Moog LP movies online! It would also be great if you could put a movie playing with several Moog LPs presets. Just for people to an idea what that little thing can do! Keep up the good work!

[keybdwizrd]

Thanks... I'll put it on "the list" - have been thinking that I should do a Moog LP demo video. It's a great instrument.

[rockyshott]

That would really be awesome. The Moog LP is on the top of my list for synths to buy. :)

[klomenattowa]

Please do, I am really interested in moog synths and other analogue synthesizers, and any extra information is great. P.S the song sounds fantastic!

[keybdwizrd]

If you haven't seen my "Korg and Moog duets" video, give it a look. Lots of Moog LP in that vid.

[FrancoFrance87]

Dig it!

[HencheLaMann]

Alright, Mr. Wakeman, the bus to Middle Earth is now boarding! = )

[keybdwizrd]

LOL. In truth, my inspiration for that Moog patch was Yes's "And You and I" from "Close to the Edge."

[hagarus]

Very Pretty!

I like the light Moog solo!

[BrandenElvis]

Wow, that MicroX is awesome.

[CarlisleCockney]

I love it. :o)
