You absolutely have the talent of entertainer. I got a feeling we are enjoying the music together, instead of the way where you would just perform and I would just listen.

Hi Glenn! Thank you for this AWESOME video. Great tunes and great vibes! I also play the Roland AX-Edge keytar in our band, and I had two technical questions if you're so inclined to respond: (1) Are you using all on-board sounds for these tunes or did you program any of them? (2) How do you play along with backing tracks and monitor + record the audio output so cleanly? (I generally play only in a DAW-less live setting so I've never actually investigated how to play along with pre-recorded tunes). Thanks again and keep up the killer 80s energy! - R-Muzz of Muzzins

@GlennMainMusic 11 ай бұрын

Thank you so much :) And you do have the right choice of Keytar as well 😃 I am recording all my tutorials to an external recorder. I am using the zoom recorder. And in this particular video I am also recording my Keytar track in my DAW along with my pre made backing track. And yes, all the sounds are onboard sounds From the Edge 😃😃😃 Sorry I answered in opposite order 🤣🤣🤣

@muzzinsmusic 11 ай бұрын

@@GlennMainMusic thanks so much for your reply! I'm not much into programming sounds, so I'm glad to hear all those awesome tones you used were onboard presets of the AX-Edge. You can see how we use this keytar in our live shows in this short clip if you like: kzfaq.infoGZKkysb4wC4

Hey Glenn awesome demo ! Seriously considering getting one of these. 1) Do the black on black keys seem strange at first or do you find it to be a non issue? 2) are those internal sounds

@GlennMainMusic Жыл бұрын

Thank you for joining my channel :-) I find it easy to play on only black key bed. I dont ususallyt look so much on it when I play... exept from oin the front of a camera.. dont know where else too look.. LOL.. Anyway, when I do live gigs, I concentrate on the audience.. so I have it in my fingers.. :-) I think that it is the same as normally cB&W keys.. I dont think so much about it.. but it looks really cool I think 🙂

Are you using the ax edge as a midi controller or are you using expansions/sound packs If so, how does one get soundpacks installed onto an ax edge? I cant seem to get mine to accept any

I have no soundpacs installed, But it should be possible since it’s a zencore engine inside. And it showed up at my Roland cloud as well 😃

Nobody seems to be able to 'fake' Miami Vice sound. You can only find Crokett's Theme. Yeah, I know, multiple instruments and programming were used.

@GlennMainMusic Жыл бұрын

I’m not sure if I understand what you mean, but there is never ment to “fake” the Miami Vice theme.. I do play it live, and there’s no meaning to sound like the original. Then I would have used the fairlight and DX7 for this… my video is just meant to play the riffs :)
