Piano cover of B.O.B. ft. Hayley Williams - Airplanes by Jesse D.

-----------------------
First, I recorded the intro with a violin sound. Then I recorded 2 separate pianotracks with my Kawai MP8 II Stage Piano and Tascam US-144 Audio interface. I synced the audio and video with Sony Vegas :) although the audio sync isn't perfect thanks to the export process & youtube uploadsystem..

* Comments are appreciated :)!

  • what music software did you use to play the keyboard?

  • @atissasha It's a stage piano actually, the one Matthew Bellamy uses in his shows :P I recorded the audio in Cakewalk Sonar Producer Edition I think. But I didn't add effects, just tweaked the volume levels and exported it to an wav file.

  • You should do a tutorial for this, I really enjoyed the sound of this particular cover and the way you played it above the other videos I have watched, please please I would be forever indebted if you made a tutorial for the way you do it : )

  • Thanks everyone. Glad you enjoy it!

    @miniG55 I've used sheet music to play the intro:

    truepianotranscriptions [dot] com / airplanes

    And then I started to play along with the original track in the background. Left hand plays 3 chords (F#min, D, A). I've figured out how to play the other parts&voice by listening carefully.

    I'm currently studying for my exams so I can't make a tutorial right now, also because I've never made one before ;)

  • @Djess911 Ok, I play by ear, so even you filming another video from above the piano so I can see what keys you are pressing works lol, I pick up songs very well by looking at what keys people are playing, so hopefully in the near future you would do another video just from above. : )

  • @miniG55 When I have some spare time, i'll try to record the song with synthesia. I guess that would be a great solution to see the keys? For example: youtube.com/watch?v=m0cRw8N8pV­U

  • Definitely the best piano-version of this song out there!

    (Like the video as well, not boring as a lot of the other piano-videos! ;) )

  • @ortiza2007 One of the standard samples I think.. I've added a little bit reverb too I think. Its so long ago :-) Should make a new video for a new song

  • What piano sample are you using from the MP8II or is it a plug in?

  • this is the only cover/piano instrumental that i like best, all the other people that plays this song plays it wrong =/

  • Very good ;)

    I´ve made a cover too, look at my channel ;)

  • only if i can read notes.. i'm sick of playing everything by ear.. including guitar >=U

  • Hayley Williams is the only redhead I'll ever love!!!
