"Music is the best"

https://youtube.com/user/MrWzzzW

Not a specific song but rather an excellent youtube Channel.

MrWzzzW has a playlist with a lot of some of my favorite bands: the Residents (his collection is so huge !), Tuxedomoon, Snakefinger, Captain Beefheart, Chrome, Primus …

4:13 long video cover of Frank Zappa’s “Zomby Wolf” produced in her bedroom with adaptive technology, she’s able to chat with mom while laying down keyboard tracks. (can’t say who edited the video)

A link to the 2 hour live stream style video of the production process is in the Accessibility for sight impaired users post that sometimes discusses technology.

I don’t know why anyone complains about Zynthian preset handling. At about 9’10" Tim just moves one synth out of the way and puts another in its place. Simple!

A recent Moog blog entry shows Lisa Bella Donna playing in a room full of Moogs, sitting on her zen pillow, performing Ascension.

What a lovely accent :rofl: :innocent:
and a nice piece as well :smiley:

FZ’s cover is impressive !
Bravo :wink:

Sorry about the shameless self- promotion …

I owed you this one @wyleu

The Zynthian was used for Piano Layer overdubs on this session. The Kronos was in my truck, so I used the 1/8 stereo Line out… lol…into a Focusrite 18i20…into Logic,…to aiff…then into Pro Tools at the studio.

Linuxsampler played a custom multi layer sfz of the Kronos German Grand layered with DX Full Tines. Pm me if you are interested in the sfz edits.

I sampled it using Chicken Translator pro to Kontakt format, then converted it to sfz, then edited the sfz file.

The bells are a Kronos preset with flanger instead of chorus. The brass came from Sampletank. The pad was from a Prophet 6.

Enjoy! Sam

Wouah :astonished:!

A bit ironic I confess, but please do not see any offens here, it’s just because for me, Zynthian is the best all in one musical gear. Portable and so convinient for playing/jaming alone.

And even if this is not my favorite style of music, result is pretty good. Congratulations.

Makes for a highly visual keyboard player

Hello @MrBroccoli,

Pitch bending occurs because the bridge is modified mechanically.
If you look at the schematic found here
https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Top-view-of-the-Clavinet-Parts-A-tangent-B-string-C-center-pickup-D-bridge_fig1_235410033
you can bend the strings on this modified Clavinet.

Greetings and God bless, Marius
