keybdwizrd - Motif Demo #4 (Brass and Woodwinds)

[FreestyleLilWayne]

hey what motif is that the es?

[keybdwizrd]

@FreestyleLilWayne That's the original Motif.

[FreestyleLilWayne]

@keybdwizrd i was thinking of investing in one is the sounds on this one that much less over the es version?

[keybdwizrd]

@FreestyleLilWayne Well, sorry, but I don't know how many sounds the ES version added. Maybe that info is at the Yamaha site.

[FreestyleLilWayne]

@keybdwizrd hmm are the sounds on the original very good? or do you suggst another synth workstation?

[keybdwizrd]

@FreestyleLilWayne Well, I have quite a few videos here with the sounds of the original Motif. Many of them have been carried over even into the current Motif models. Personally, I prefer the Motifs over the workstations made by Korg and Roland, although there are others who would disagree. It is a matter of personal preference.

[yarkeim]

the 1st brass they used for all the way turned up

[qtippz]

@yarkeim Yep. The version that Vybe did though. and He had the XS.

[osvtorr]

the first sound is very very beautiful, what is the name of the preset?

[keybdwizrd]

@osvtorr Sweet Flute

[hamarama]

Jump

[jjelbrujo777]

very good men

[1Mhpouy]

So then do you know how to sample sounds from a DX7 to a motif?

[keybdwizrd]

I have not used the sampling aspects of the Motif, but you should check out a website called Motifator. All things Motif-related are there.

[1Mhpouy]

Yea but like is there a way that i can sample sounds from the DX7 to the motif because you can do that with the ES series like i think you can sample sounds from a roland d-50 on to a motif es, as well as to a korg triton series.

[keybdwizrd]

Yes, the Motif has sampling capability.

[1Mhpouy]

is there any way that i can get Yamaha DX7 sounds on a motif 7 i have a motif 7 and its the original too?

[keybdwizrd]

The DX7 and Motif are very different instruments. Some of the electric piano patches in the Motif sound like samples of DX7 piano sounds from the 80's, however.

[oleold]

What about some funk brass on the motif James Brown and Tower of Power style?

[keybdwizrd]

I'll put it on "the list."

[rayzur233]

Could you tell me what song that is you're playing 2:00?

[keybdwizrd]

Just a few measures from Van Halen's song "Jump." One of the very rare moments in one of my videos where I actually play a bit of someone else's tune. :)

[rayzur233]

haha thanks, ive been trying to find that song for a long time. great job on the vids, keep doin it!

[keybdwizrd]

Yes indeed.

[guitarharpsichord]

so that is the original Motif? from like 2001?

[1Mhpouy]

i have a motif 7 and i wanted to know if there is anyway how i can get the yamaha DX7 sounds on it like the lead brass or if there is a way i can fix a sound to let it sound like it?

[danielortizdecaracas]

beatiful timbres, but the end tail of pitch bend is awful

[DonteCarroll]

WAIT WAS OBSTUFF A TONE ON THE MOTIF?

[keybdwizrd]

A patch on the Motif, yes.

[DonteCarroll]

what is a patch?

[keybdwizrd]

A "patch" is a sound on a synthesizer, usually stored in memory. For example, an instrument like the Motif has a bunch of different piano patches, meaning different piano sounds stored in it.

[StiekemStiekem]

what are the chords for 1:42

liked it alot

[DonteCarroll]

I KNOW RITE!!

[DonteCarroll]

IS THAT A SONG AT 1:40??

[DonteCarroll]

[DonteCarroll]

1:30 SOUND LIKE SUMTHIN FROM GUMBY

[DonteCarroll]

can u give me the notes for 1:42

[DonteCarroll]

what kind of motif is this?

[DonteCarroll]

u should do gospel praise music in brass

[DonteCarroll]

what sound was 2:00 on the motif?

[DonteCarroll]

was that a gospel run? 0:47

[xDATbOIChRISx]

[DonteCarroll]

[abiniz]

[abiniz]

[cffellows]

Just wondered if you have looked at the Motif XS and what your impression is?

(I know, so many keyboards, so little time!)

Chuck

[keybdwizrd]

I played one briefly in a store... it has the usual collection of great-sounding presets. The Yamaha folks just seem to do a great job with the sounds.

[Paul7600]

you are very skilled at playing, but why using distortion with the wheel on sounds like the sax??

[prodiGx]

loved the way the BRASS's are played ..

[shubus]

Michael, you've been on hiatus for whole month.  Common back, dude--you're missed! Love that Sweet Flute.

[Nukemoose1]

nice

Have you ever thought about getting a modular synthesizer?

[Shogun2k7]

yeahhhhhh Van Halen Jump!!!! hahaha classic!

Your amazing man!

[gnamp]

Wow- the flute sound is great- those overblown tones from hitting the keys harder is a great touch
