Lovely piano theme, Bob!! :up

Heja Danmark! :)

Personal revelations:

Yessongs - prog is the thing!
Rush - Farewell/Hemispheres - THIS is how prog should sound!
Steve Hackett - Spectral Mornings - ALSO like this!
(interlude with fusion,...

Finally a clearing in the clouds tonight! I got a shot with my superzoom. I'll look tomorrow what was caught.

Wonderful ambient piece! :up

OK, this is not that bad actually! Quite groovy really :geezer

Impressive pic! Been cloudy here all December! Zero hours of clear...

Cool idea! I'll give it a shot if I can find the time in the holidays! Though maybe not as a "wanna be", but rather as a "has been" :lol I hope a few others will try as well, as it would be...

The perfect Christmas synth!!

I've had a few NI's but never connected, except for Kontakt, which is more or less mandatory if you use sampled instruments,and Reaktor, which i intend to learn one day :D I considered their...

A week or go or so I bought a Keylab II and updated my v6 to v7 for $99 during Black Week. So well - I'm not prepared to put another $199 for the EII so I'll await the next major sale to upgrade to...

Yes very tasteful and a fair dose of Robben Ford:ish fusion, though he flirts with modern prog! The "space" in his songs is really big and lush, almost ambient sometimes. The drawback is the drummer...

New Plini album out, the second (sorta) full length!

I had the same reaction! WHAT?? Freak accident with such luck for the driver! The hit alone would have made anyone pass out but he kept consciousness and was quick enough to release himself and crawl...

I had the Keystation Pro 88 for a while but it felt way to heavy to play and I had to realize I'm NOT a pianist... I've tested a few others while visiting music stores and of the available...

Due to guitar investments (the Strandberg) I had to let the Prophet 12 go. It was getting too little attention anyway, mostly serving as master keyboard. As I like the Arturia Collection, I went for...

Nice! :up Interesting arrangement and a cool 70s vibe over the sound!

Great feature! :up

Fascinating place it is! Always try to visit the place when in London! Last time I was there the chimneys were more or less hidden by scaffolding! I hope they preserve the magnificent control room......

Well... probably suitable for more metallic stuff, considering it's a 7 string model...

Another angle... Incredibly slick feel to the neck - ebony and stainles steel frets!

Great info there! Thanks! :up

I rented a GR-300 system for a few recording sessions when they came about, just doing the usual pad/rhino-solo stuff with it! I think it worked quite nicely. Later I...

Some short Youtube tutorials maybe, to get started?

Supposedly, but there are exceptions! ;) For me I want to explore the extended range but might also get a tad heavier... But then, I still got a year or two until 60, when one should go Tele or candy...

If you're comfortable with thicker necks like Gibson LPs or SGs, or are generally insensitive to neck thickness, you will probably like the Strandberg necks. You could order one to try as they have a...

Obviously and very short scale :rofl

Seriously - some info and pics at Sweetwater: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/BDPG7BK--strandberg-boden-prog-7-black.

They are very comfortable with...

I would recommend you though to find an opportunity to try one (or several) out. The neck profile is different with its trapezoidal shape. I'm used to thin necks like Ibanez RG's and the Strandberg...

:up

Yes let's share some of those moments to make battema feel he is not alone! ;) I have done just what you described - having all keys jumping out and, apart from refitting the keys, also had to find...

Yes it was quite awful! The synth engine was quite good (same as Roland JX-3P) but the tracking was slow and gltichy!

The Casio guitar got quite good reviews I remember, for the good tracking,...

OMG what a nightmare! :O I really hope it will be an easy fix!

Well, a little more than a year later and I couldn't contain myself! This black beauty has just been unboxed! Magnificent guitar :)

I understand the philosophy I think, but then, what would be the reason to copy such a flawed product in the first place? ;) It's just a medium adding its own artefacts in a chain electronic and...

A big hit it was NOT, from 1967!

As said, CD's are just containers for digital files and the physical experience of the design is inferiour to that of 10" vinyl sleeves. So it's not probable you can charge very much for a CD, while...

R.I.P. Eddie! Van Halens first album was a true game changer for teen me in 1979!

I think you voice has a really nice timbre and the vocal arrangements are really good! I believe it's got great potential, with some more work regarding vocal production! I even would like to...

I'm sorry! ;) Your efforts are impressive and there are complicated stuff happening and you pull it off well! I recognize the situation where you have have ideas where you have to challenge yourself...

Really nice stuff! :) I was about to just probe the tracks but ended up listening to the whole album! Sure some influences are there - the list you included with some additional UK and Marillion I...

Nice song Richard - really well crafted! :up :)

Keyboards sending polyphonic aftertouch are pretty rare! Hydrasynth is one of the few of newer date. I got the QNexus minikeys which kyes sends both poly AT and individual "wiggle" (like the small...

Great tool in this context, maybe...

Amazing! :)

In "Start Again" from "Victor", Dalbello sounds like early Geddy

Kaye: DX7, OB??, Electric Grand, then to the left an organ and a blue Emulator 1 on top.
Downstairs: Another Emulator 1 (I believe) above two Roland Jupiter 8 (or one 8 and a Jupiter 6?)

Nice! Really good production and interesting timbres! I like the instrumental jams most where things really get grooving :) Especially the second half of "No More Dance Floor"! Looking forward to the...

Tull had their distinctive and quite pleasant style but if I'd mix up the vinyls and put in the wrong sleeves I wouldn't really have noticed... Sound, melodies, arrangements didn't "progress". Rash...

Agreed!

New Arturia Polybrute - promising 6 voice poly which is not just "more of the same"!

Going down the memory-stub lane,

I obviously saw Marillion in 1986 - I've always told ppl it was sad I really didn't get the chance see them :oops :lol

Same goes for Toto 1987 and Saga in...
