This is the first of many videos to come. Light the Sky was also the first song written by Steve and I under our latest ARZ configuration. Originally ARZ was primarily a song writting project, but now it is being turned into a performance prog band. What you hear in this video is what you'll experience live. The bass and keyboard duties are shared between the both of us via MIDI instruments. I hope you like what you hear.
The video was created by Pinnacle Studio 12 and shot live with 2 camcorders. The individual shots were dubbed in later.
Please stay tuned for more to come...
Thanks,
Steve and Merrill
Another fantastic song. Nice job!

Congrats guys! I mostly stick to the old prog bands, never cared much for new prog but your stuff is very good. Keep it coming!

Hello Bassplayer10,
Thank you for your kind comments. Indeed the guitar tones are generated from the VG-99. Our goal as musicians in this project is to perform everything live so the inclusion of VG-99 and Merrill's system (Roland, mykits, and more) allows us to do this. The video is in fact a live performance.
Let us know when your video is up!
Thanks,
Steve

Nice job guys! Very impressive. Were all the guitar tones from the VG-99? I have a similar project with a drummer playing Vdrums and me with the VG-99, a RC-50, Pro Tools as our sequencer and Reason 4 as our sound module. We hope to have a vid up soon too. Again, great job!

Wow guys - this is incredibly good. To get such a deep an meaningful sound with two people is truly amazing! I look forward to seeing what more goodies ARZ has in store - this is really excellent work!
