Vallenato Pop without accordions. Zero rehearsal

Thank you Manuel!!

That was awesome...beautifully played.

Thank you,

Ian

Thank you Ian.
It's funny but before getting these styles I used to play this song with the Yamaha's Irish Dance

Hi Vagro, not sure which I admire more, your playing style or impressive keyboard studio setup. Very enjoyable. In addition to the Korg PA500 (top), what are the two keyboards situated below it (center & bottom)?

Scott

Victor,
I really enjoyed it!
Great job...as usual. I really did like the style. I'm geting tired tonight...but tommorrow I will load those styles to the PA2 and try them out.
Zero rehersal?? Well, you obviously know that tune by heart...

Ian...well...we don't need a 76 as long as we have '3' 61's :-)
(except for piano then 88 is better anyways with 76 a nice compromise)

Hi Scott, thanks for your kind words.
The keyboard in the middle belongs to the Mediastation that I took off from the main console and the lower keyboard is an M-Audio controller.

Victor

I'm glad you enjoyed, I also did.

Yes I know this song since I were a kid and have played it many times. I meant I chose the style, muted those accordions, found some nice flutes and mandolin and turned on the camera and computer for recording. That was done only on the 45 minutes I had available to play today.

Very cool. Love the sounds. Thx for sharing

Hi Victor....

I am so happy you are playing South-American music, and performed so beautifully.
Making music is food to the soul, is what is all about.

Thanks for the plug too, and like the old saying, it takes perhaps more than 2 to Tango, in this case, of course, Korg USA, for hiring us (Jerry and Malcolm) for trusting our judgment in what styles to make, and we could not have done it without the guidance from one of the most respected style designers in the Industry, Mr. Chris Anthony, what a great guy sharing his knowledge!!!!. And of course my friend Juan Miguel Zarate and yours truly, to make this ethnic styles, it was a team effort, that we hope the musicians enjoy them.

Changing the topic....You change drastically your set up, I remember that you had a Electone (don´t remember the model), I am curious, I see a Mediastation X76(module?), the Korg PA500, I am not sure if it is a Yamaha PSR S900/910? behind the Mediastation, and also what keyboards/controllers are you using below the PA 500? I see a mouse also in the Right side on the bottom keyboard....
VERY INTERESTING.....(With a Russian accent).
Congrats and consider making another video, perhaps with a Mercedes Sosa/Atahualpa Yupanqui/Chabuca Granda,etc...Songs like Odiame, La Flor de la Canela, Alma Corazón y Vida, Abrazaditos, Fina Estampa, Alma Llanera, etc...
Thank you again Victor.
Gracias.

Korg (USA)...HIRED yo guys to do the styles?
SUPER! I will also thank them for the efforts.

I am impressed and somewhat surprised.

Lee S.

That was great by Korg USA !!!!
And you did an excellent work with the styles.

I am really impress with Korg USA.

Yes Manuel I play all sorts of musical styles. I like every music that can be imitated with an arranger from classical to pop, rock,latin etc except for country, oriental and some very local European music (polkas, schlager etc)

I have been changing my set up during the last 4 years and that can be seen in my videos but I will always keep my old D85 Electone organ that has marked my musical interest. Not many videos with it because it is placed in our living room and I need a quiet inspirational moment and a good microphone and recording equipment for that purpose, both things very difficult to achieve with the family. As I said above in a former post the middle keyboard belongs to the Mediastation that has been taken off from the main console (it's not a module) and the lower Keyboard is an M Audio controller. The mouse is for the MS that actually is a dedicated computer and there is also a computer keyboard hidden behind the MS.

I should thank you, Miguel Zarate and Korg for hiring you then.

I hope you received my mail with an Mp3.

Thanks

vagro,

what's the small controller on top of your korg's speaker?

It is a Korg NanoKontrol. Check this info:

Nice work.....
great setup also...good luck to you.

Hi Vagro,
that was wonderful. What an incredible set up.

Now can someone PLEASE explain what I've missed out on.
Haven't got a clue what styles you guys are talking about.
I haven't been around as much lately.

best wishes
Rikki

Victor:

Thank you, I got your email with the MP3, I just love this music, Mercedes Sosa, and others like Chabuca Granda(Peru), many other great composer-artist with their beautiful folk music.
One organist/keyboardist artist from Argentina that lives in the USA and is considered a genius-virtuoso is Hector Olivera, incredible, so nice and with a great sense of humor.

Your setup certainly is very impressive and the best part, you know how to use it too.
Keep up the Great work.
Gracias Victor, tienes mucho talento.

Manuel

Hi Lee,

thank you.

Victor,
What RH voices on the PA800 are you using for the flute section in the song?
Thanks,
Lee S.

Thanks Dnj, Rikki and Manuel.

Lee,
In the song, on the Pa500, I play the STS 2 included in the style consisting of a Pan Flute GM and Blown Bottle GM with ensemble in duet mode. There is added a Flute vibrato from the Korg Tr that I control with the volume pedal and Modulation pedal.
