The machine doesn’t need to feel… simply copy (or more accurately produce music ‘close to’) music that humans have used feelings to create. Da Vinci may have felt sad painting the Mona Lisa but an AI homage doesn’t need to feel sad!

Hi Gunnar, Yes, the new KETRON FUSION looks interesting indeed. The moment I glanced at the Scale Controls on the left of the keyboard panel, it reminded me of the Yamaha PSR-A5000 which caters to the oriental market. https://www.sweetwater.com/st

Hi Bill, I agree that building these contraptions will be technically challenging and never be as ergonomic as the factory designed solutions offered by Wersi. Dual manuals with a pedal board is a must have feature for serious organ players. I lo

Great combination, however, it does require a lot of setup and Indepth knowledge of Midi and Audio to get it working. (Plus, I don't think the other half would allow it in the lounge) Don't forget you need a pedalboard to get the best from an organ.

Ha! I watched the 2 videos by Vivian and was compelled to make and instant purchase too. This is like having the Circle of 5ths on steroids. I can’t believe how she managed to squeeze in so much information. This sure beats the Noisy Clan Wheel

Hello!! Your Music Theory Wheel looks more intense and versatile than mine!! I ordered one. I've passed out extra circle of fifths wheels to friends over the years. Most of them have never heard of them. I love when old turns into new. -charley

John Mike just verified that the boot time in the KRONOS 3 has indeed been reduced to 48 seconds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7vizvfDziA Luciano stressed the point that even though the shell looks the same as the older model, the KRONOS 3 h

Hi Bill, Yes, I see your point. I agree this combo will not work out for gigging musicians. The Roland RD-2000 EX weighs 48 lbs. It is not easy to move around when you consider the extra weight of the necessary road case to safely transport it. N

That would be a bueatiful combo but if your a gigging musician I'd hate to have to move the RD2000 around. I have the FP90, the basic piano version of the 2000 and in its case it's got to be about 75 lbs. Its only been in the case once when I wanted

OAX1 is an organ with arranger features and is exactly the same as all the other organs in the range. The big 3 are dedicated arrangers that require plenty of workarounds if you want to add pedals and 2nd keyboard to operate like an organ. (An organ

Hi Bill, I agree with you. The ideal solution for playing the Piano, Organ and Synth sounds is to have a dual manual setup. The lower manual can be the Roland RD-2000 EX with its superb Progressive Hammer Action (PHA-50) 88 weighted keys with esc

Hi Charley, Yes, it is exactly like the Circle of 5ths Tool, except that it is meant to work for the MODES. I use this Circle of 5th Tool Wheel made by Noisy Clan. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CC9C4H9T/ I found it very useful. It comes with th

Hello! I like these types of tools. This looks like an extension of the Circle of Fifths. I have a copy of that Circle of Fifths staring me in the face whenever I play. -charley

Seems to me a roland VR 730 would do a decent job for a lot less money. Put it over a decent DP with weighted keys and your there. I'd rather have a full time piano and be able to jump to the second keyboard for other sounds. But thats me. 😎
