I only have my MODX6 for a little over a month, but I am learning so much about this thing because of your vids. Thanks man. Love the channel.

thank you .. very very beatifullll

I followed your instructions and this is a wonderful sound!!!! Thank you!!! You likely have more influence with keyboard and synth developers than I could ever wish for….Yamaha needs to add a 1 to 8 terabyte hard drive so we can load up a billion sounds!!!! Thank you so much!!!!

Great video, clear instructions, easy to follow and replicate on our instruments. Excellent job Don!!

Great video. So much to learn, so little time.

I so hope and pray you have more videos. The more I see of this little keyboard, the more I am interested in purchasing one. It has some awesome strings and pipe organ sounds (as I have heard in the past couple of weeks). Thanks for sharing, man! Awesome, for sure!

great work

Este vídeo me ajudou muito a criar uma orquestra que eu precisei para tocar em um casamento. Muito obrigado meu amigo. Ganhou um like e um inscrito no seu canal...

Wow that's brilliant.

I enjoy many Montage tutorial videos but this is one of my favorites. It is excellent and I am very excited to see everything I can do with my Montage.

I find the similar Factory Perforamce Patch on the Motif XF8 more useful - already set up with bigger crash cymbals - faster attack / more realistic release, bigger Brass, Tymp Sound, correct verb,etc. for a big bang orchestra feel - the attack and release here seem sluggish on this patch - Yamaha makes the best feeling keyboards though - The Montage is definitely on my shopping list this year - I really like the keyboard button to allow top and bottom parameters - I don't think I've seen that on many keyboards since the 80's. I also picked up a new Kronos 2 years ago - an important keyboard for synthy live performances - set lists are a game changer - but the action isn't really close to the Yamaha's for Piano material - and I hate double tiered keyboard setups - so the Kronos stays home unless really needed - Thanks for the tutorial!

Great tutorial! Thank you so much!

This is very nice! Thanks Dom :-)

great

Hey Dom, big fan of yours. Please do a remake of your intro on the Montage/Modx. I'd really appreciate that. I love that sound and doing it on any of this synth would go a long way for synth. Peace!

So funny.... you are orchestrating! If you were to take a look at an orchestra score you know perfectly well what sound to create. It is a study on it’s self. Hector Berlioz wrote a whole book on the subject. You are - in a way - continually reinventing the wheel... but it is fun to play around with this stuff, I fully understand that - so keep on and enjoy!😊

Fun in the sun.

Great work Dom, thank you.

Hi dom..I'm a huge fan of ur playing and tutorials..I used this tutorial to make a big orchestral sound similar to what u taught. I.will.upload on my channel.and tag you too❤

Dom - this was a fantastic video man! Great job!!

Hi Dom, nice video, but you missed one important thing, you added a choir as Part 8, but this sound was a multi parts sound so it went on the slots 8,9 and 10. BUT montage plays only parts1-8, parts 9-16 are for other purposes like sequencing, midi, arpeggios and so on. That's why your choir was so thin, because it only took 1 part from this multi part choir sound. Just mentioning it, keep the good videos coming!

thank you so much for this tuto. Works great also for the MODX!

man i just got the modx8 and its been a big learning curve. your vids have been excellent, thank you so much. yamaha should have a whole series of stuff like this to help people. what i want to know ishow can i change the super knob so it bring up and down the volume of the parts, i can see it already does the brass bits but how do i go in and change that for the other parts if i want? thankyou

Great again!

Thank you, Dom. Great work )))

Thanks Dom...!! God Bless u

Wow!! This was great thanks! Those effects are awesome too. Dom, is there any chance that the Montage will have a sound module version?

So this is how Frank Tedesco gets this sound, i have been looking everywhere on how he was even remotely getting close to that orchestral percussive hit sound on only certain dynamics.

LOVE IT .

Fantastic work. It is possible to have the performance?

Your patch sounds very much like the orchestral sounds on the Kurzweil K2600 / PC3.

please do tutorials on Yamaha E series and S series too

Sounds amazing, can you do this on the mofx?

I saw that you limited the timpani to E2. Is it possible to assign different instruments to different areas of the keyboard but also have them on different octaves? For example, could I have a string sound on the left side of the keyboard and a flute on the right while prevents the string sound from being low octaves? I hope that this makes sense. Thank you!

J'ai ce genre de sonorités avec mon vieux Roland XP30 que je possède encore.

great (y)

Hello .. the strings and brass in the modx+ is not like that.. why is that?

Great sounds..congrats..I have a MODX8 and I'd like to know how to assign at the (Route Assigned) all value red with the superknob because I have just four and if I move the superknob moves just four (1.2.3.4) thanks in advance =)

Dom, did you put this great sound on sound mondo? I can't locate it. Thanks

Please make detailed video with envelope follower. For example - if you have audio record inside the montage, will the envelope follower change the tempo if you play with band ????

Thank you so much bro...I have a modx the process seems identical. My other question is I can find crescendo cymbal orchestra sounds. Would you also know how to create them?

Hi dom i have a montage 7 and I got a really serious latency when I play the keyboard can you help me to solve this problem thank you Andy

how does the notes get louder when he holds the notes longer for that build up effect?

Hi Dom, this is a great video! May I ask you another orchestral sound like in the Tina Turner's concert live in Barcellona 2009? the song was Proud Mary. thanks a lot in advance. Giorgio

Dom, can you add choir to a scene? this was you can bring it in and out on demand?

How can i mix sound for hymns,can you send it to me

Great patch Dom! But to be honest, the sound engine in this or even in Kronos are still not able to be on par with most Kontakt instruments when it comes to "Realistic-ality". They are still using the same type of samples from the 90's, very "Cartoon-y".

This is cool for like a Live heavy progressive metal concert or maybe even sketching but using it for live production I don't think it'll work.

Big problem that is not covered up by reverb: Most of these brass orchestral sounds release too abruptly, giving the game away, whereas most of the string sounds tend to have too long a release, also giving the game away. I don't know if you can adjust the ASDR controls to overcome this?

Wonder how the Montage compares to the Genos keyboard like Ensemble sounds.

Thanks, but you exceeded the 8 parts, and you know that parts 9 and 10 are Not playbed by the Keyboard?

Cartoon (soundfont) orchestra compared with Orchestral Tools and Spitfire

Can I add more instruments? Or only 8?

Just realised that when I change piano tone to strings tone it gets cut instead of smooth transition and even the volume changes when I'm using volume pedal it gets loud when the tone is changed like for example when my previous tone volume is on half pedal and when I change to next tone without pressing pedal the volume resets and it goes on the max level! Sir is there any way I can solve this matter? Thanks in advance!
