Some great Hammond playing on Genos

Some great Hammond playing on Genos

You nned a good amplifier (preferably with a sub-woofer) or headphones to really appreciate this.

If you don't speak German, skip to about 50 secs.

Re: What are you listening to Now ? (10)

Brian,

I reckon you'd have a job creating a 'bespoke' STYLE to use on your keyboard for something like this!

Re: Using the TRANSPOSE

Tony, I do understand that! Perfect pitch is not just about whether something is 'in tune' or not (I would know that!) but if it's being played in the key it should be played in. Now when I play something, as I 'play by ear' and don't have the music, I would play it in a key that is convenient for m...

Re: STYLES .. how to EDIT them to suit what you're playing

Here's another one played on a Korg Pa4X with a style made from a midi file. It's played by jackoj and is called A Bunch Of Thyme .

Re: Setting up/Changing the SPLIT POINT

Den, I think you mean G6, not F6. Thing is .. you are splitting hairs! What gives a chord it's 'identity' is (a) the notes in the chord that make up the harmony of it, and (b) what the 'root' of the chord is. A chord is identified from it's ROOT. Both Em7 and G6 have the following notes in the harmo...

Hi Andrew, We are spoilt with our modern keyboards as we can record to .WAV at just the press of a button. But older organs are a different matter. At least with my Yamaha AR80 organ I could record to a floppy disk, and then play that back through the organ so the organ would play it back to me. Thi...

Setting up/Changing the SPLIT POINT

The SPLIT POINT is the note selected to split the keyboard into LEFT and RIGHT. Any notes played to the LEFT (including the selected split note) are normally allocated to playing CHORDS with a STYLE. Notes played to the right are for the Melody. To get to the page to set this up, press the FUNCTION ...

Playing CHORDS with a LEFT VOICE allocated

When using a STYLE it doesn't really matter what inversion of a chord you play. The keyboard recognises the chord you are playing, and you hear the same backing, regardless. But this is not the case if you allocate a LEFT VOICE to the left of the split , as the keyboard will play the actual notes yo...
