Yamaha PSR e403's most extreme challenge: Gary Numan's Cars.

If you plan to buy a keyboard, watch this movie first!

This Cars version (with some Kraftwerk's sequences) is played exclusively on a PSR e403 keyboard (under 300€) and no other sounds or effects are used on this video.




The style was created using "casmEdit" which is totally free.

Sorry for keyboard rotation,sound synchronicity and quality on the video.

How on earth did you get the phased/unphased v.humana sound from a 403?

@electronicballast

You exactly understood the goal of the movie:

I used double filtering at different frequencies to simulate a "va-et-vient" phasing; the

subtle vibrato increases the effect.

I'll soon publish tips and styles on my website.

Thanks!

It's a good machine although factory styles require some retouches. If you don't find the styles interesting enough, let me know and I'll try to help you. Thanks!

That, my friend, is very impressive!! Excellent stuff :-)

Cheers!

You're quite aware of difficulty level here, "cars" is one of the best examples to tests a keyboard. ;)

I got one of these in 2007, I thought I would just mess around with it, but I have used it in the studio and been blown away by some of the sounds I got out of it. Nice video, shows me how much I still have to learn, I'm a bass player, but love the keys.

You,ve done a good job playing this,sounds great :-)

Hey WELL DONE is the least I can say. NEVER mind those who don't like it, thay CANT do better. How did you record such an accurate & indeed BRILLIANT version? Nice keyboard. I have a handful of nice keyboards, I play a lot of Gary Numan, Kraftwerk, record bits of my own stuff, sing & play for elderly groups the old classics just as a hobby though. I'm about to get a Juno G that has a sound just like Gary N uses, wonderful synt so I looking forward to getting this stunner.

Cheers from Rich
