PW_Guitarist Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 QUOTE (Snowman @ Jun 12 2007, 05:39 AM) Do you use the computer for studiowork only? Which of the Softsynths do you recommend the most? I am looking for some really hard and dirty organsounds. The keyboard player in my original band uses Native Instruments' B4 for his Hammond sounds. It has one called "Hush" that sounds much like what you are describing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Allright, thanks for the tip. I think I have enough hardware to go, any new improvement would have to be software. I will check out Native Instruments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you will find the notation from PW_Guitarist helpful. After you've got the basic chords down just noodle around in the right scale to learn the solo. At least that's what I do, just play by ear. You know you've got when it makes you feel good.

This thing is simply incredible, one of the best VA synths i've ever played. All of my Soft Synths are VSTi's in Cubase. I run my SL-161 through the Tascam into my computer and output from the Tascam in Stereo through my amp + powered speaker. I run my Radioshack controller through the SH-32 with one output going straight to my amp and one output going through the Tascam. My set-up is fairly simple and I plan on getting a Minimoog Voyager in the next year. I'll post pics soon. Tell me about your rigs! You've got some great gear there dude.

Snowman Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Cool setup. The future lies within the software I think. Although Korg have recently tried to make their keyboards lighter and more transportfriendly with the Radias and M3. What kind of music do you play?

My main work as keyboardist is with ethno-world-jazz band called Lot-Lorien (from Bulgaria, don't mix us with other bands with similar name ). My work in the band is to put some harmonies behind the acoustic instruments to make the sound fuller, also I'm the soundengineer of the band.

Usually I start with some original presets and after few changes I'm ready with few my presets-I try them and compare them to the original, after that I try them with the music and make some other changes...and so on.
