[ballademaker]

[keybdwizrd]

@ballademaker Thanks!

[rct3crazy56]

@keybdwizrd what motif model is that ?

[keybdwizrd]

@rct3crazy56 That's the original Motif 6, that I bought in 2001.

[rct3crazy56]

@keybdwizrd well thanks man this is really awesome stuff u got here do a vid some time of u playing only the mortif like a tutorial of what it can do

[keybdwizrd]

@rct3crazy56 Thanks, but I don't really go in for the tutorial videos - they are a lot of work, to be honest. I just like to show people what they sound like.

[rct3crazy56]

@keybdwizrd how much is a motif i am thinking of getting one and im wondering is it worth buying the latest model of the motif i have a clavinova 405 which is amazing but im wondering is it worth getting the latest model of the motif?

[keybdwizrd]

@rct3crazy56 You can find Motif XF prices at sites like Musicians Friend or Sweetwater. They are very expensive IMHO, but worth it if you can afford it.

[bachir1972]

VERRY NICE I LOVE YOUR MUSIC MY FRIEND

[Annonymus121]

Somone who really knows how to make a keyboard sing! some people just click a few buttons with randomly specified patterns, looks like you have lost of musical knowledge behind you, great job!

[keybdwizrd]

@Annonymus121 Thanks for listening!

[Claudio79]

Cool!!! ;-)

[bennethos]

one of you're best compositions . Great beginning, lots of fx'es and a a LEAD melody with an attitude :-)

[keybdwizrd]

[taramarcotte]

[Domazzi]

Very cool!

[tranceemerson]

Hey Michael :) props! I love this track!  do you have a CD?

[keybdwizrd]

I have one CD from a long time ago, but all of my music (at present) is available as free downloads at my website. Check the Music tab.

[DavesVenture]

This a true master at work in his lab.

Incredibly fantastic as always!!!

[keybdwizrd]

Thank you very much.

[antonioalten]

It's one of the most inspiring trance compositions I've ever heard, not only full of true magic, also very elegant. Thanks for sharing it with us. Best Regards.

[gutiarplyr411]

lol, midi is confusing

[GnR93VR]

Tis actually quite simple once you get your head around the basics.

[gutiarplyr411]

everytime someones tried to tell me wat it means i dont get it

[SpaceChaos]

you are the best Keyboardwizard

good work

[Str3tchnut5]

That basline is tight as hell.

[linuxva]

Very good stuff !

[NimaSun]

good stuff!!

how long have you been playing and have you taken any music lessons?

[keybdwizrd]

Thanks, I have been playing since I was six years old, and took piano lessons for 15 years.

[NimaSun]

wow!

Personal question but do you get payed for your keyboard skills?

[clydesight]

Beautiful! Thanks!

[newpro5657]

One thing I noticed on the MicroX was that when I control with another keyboard, in my case an M3, another layer of sounds are accessed sometimes in upper and lower octaves. KW uses the motif controller and might be getting those other layers too. Just a thought. Sam Utah

[rockyshott]

You're the coolest old guy ever.

[fromthispoint]

LOL coolest old guy ever lol

[telperionx]

How did you configure the appegiators for Fantasmagoria. On my Korg MicroX it sounds completley diffrent. How do i have to adjust my Korg to have the same sound?

[keybdwizrd]

Hmmm... I don't recall tweaking anything, I think I just used the preset. Do you have another keyboard (with more keys) MIDIed up to the Micro X? Which octave(s) are played affects results.

[telperionx]

The Korg Micro X is triggered by a Roland Juno G Synthesizer. The sound of Fantasmagoria ist the same as yours. But the appergiator pattern is diffrent. I have tryed every octave. Maybe there are diffrent model types of the Korg Micro X.

Thank you for your answer!

[britindus]

same here ... mine sounds v different too!

Ive not been able to recreate this patch here

[cyberwaffles]

i got the same issue too. i can't get the sound.

[mexchico17]

This track right here sounds like Paul vanDyke, but with more creativity. This is good stuff.

[britindus]

is this a preset combo or a bit of juggling yourself??

Great vids keep em coming!

[keybdwizrd]

Thanks - it is a preset.

[dbillmtl]

I really like your song. Do you a website? Do you sell cds?

[keybdwizrd]

Website is at thekeyboardwizard com - no CDs, but many free MP3 downloads.

[scorpio1066]

[keybdwizrd]

[scorpio1066]

[keybdwizrd]

[swofts45]

[quentin262144]

are you using a computer in the same time or the synth alone ?

[keybdwizrd]

No computer in this one; just the arpeggiators in the Korg Micro X (played via the Motif keyboard).

[dnbroxme]

wow... just...... wow.

very nice work!

i was stuck on the virus c for a while... i think you and the vid from sonicstate on the os updates got me sold on the ti... hahaha

[keynoise]

You are amazing , i like all of Your videos.The most powerfull in Your compositions is the great balance between wonderful technique of playing and temperance during the composition. Even if You could show us how to play fast etc . Go on with Your nice work . I look forward to next vids.

[nagchumpalot]

Really brilliant!.. do you like to programe your own synth sounds?.. or just tweak presets.. good stuff.

[keybdwizrd]

Thank you - I am largely a preset-tweaker, although I quite often end up very far away from the original patch.

[Nightspyworld]

HEY...

[DjDFi]

[seventhsun1]

[control75]

[ctbtyper]

Dude, great job!  I liked this a lot. Perfect venue for the Virus.

[mnjx]

wheres that bass drumm coming from if theres no sequencers? cool song tho.

[keybdwizrd]

the drums are being generated by a "combi" patch on the korg micro x.

[brainztain]

that's what I call a bassist left hand, good job

[h4senbr4ten]

i enjoyed watching that
