Thanks very much. I have not used many ribbons... this one here... the KX5 , the Roland remote thingy- I really did not like that one... and the vintage when new PolyMoog. I Like the KX5 ribbon feel and yes it has center pitch. The keys feel ok but are weak and I tend to break them often.
WOW! that synth sounds incredible! what synth engine are you using? and the keytar.... looks familiar, but are all the keys black?? great performance! :)
I use any number of synths to get the basic sound. Here I am using an old Proteus by Emu. The patch is a very simple one. I am using an harmonic of a bass gtr sample. The 'trick' is that it goes through old school gear. The synth goes out to an MXR fuzz to a Morley volume/wha and then to an echo box and all that goes to a vintage fender tube amp on11. The controller is a 1980's Yamaha that I painted black.
That's great... I used to get a similar sound by running a low freq bassy patch on a Roland Juno through an old Marshall stack... although in by case it was more like the sound on Byrne/Eno's Regiment... The pitch wheel is nice but I like the pitch mod setup you used even better I think... more natural than smacking the wham bar around.
Sonds good. Yeah I love the ribbon ever since I used the polymoog in the 70's. I have a dream of having the guts of this one I am using put into a nice body with a wood neck and stronger keys. To it I would add a second larger ribbon. I priced it out wonce with a good gtr maker and it was much more expensive than I thought it would be and I thought it would be pretty expensive. ONE DAY!
What is the synth you are using? I have seen Eno holding the same one during the Roxy Music days... is this the one he used to get the Sky Saw effect as well?

Hey man, great playing !!! You really made me want a ribboncontroller BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD :)
Do you have centerpitch in the middle of the ribbon?
Like a pitchwheel?
How does the ribbon feel compared on the KX-5 compared to other ones...I guess the keyboard is not that great ?!?!
Thanks for posting this

You what I mean? The FEEL of the instrument is very important and often we keyboard types get stuck sticking our fingers in bits of plastic.

You sounds better than Jan Hammers "Guitar". Maybe you are the unknown son of Jimmy Hendrix? *lol*

Drum and Bass... well as a synth guy I kinda lump it all together. I did not mean to offend. It's only rock'n'roll.
