You left out the most important STEP: How to save it. I edited the range on one of the performances to suit me, but there is no save button on that screen, and the physical save button takes me to some weird place with no indication of what to do. So I press the performance button, navigate back to the performance I edited to find nothing has changed.
Hello Mr.Sigalas, I recently bought a MODX7+. I've played keys all of my life, but I am completely new to this technology. I'm so glad I came across your site. You know this instument so well, are so easy to understand & kind. #1) Do you have a instuctional video course available? If so, how do you sign up & how much does it cost? If not, do you have a instruct video on how to create a program/performance file for Africa (Toto) & Sledgehammer (P. Gabriel).Thanks very much. ☮
Dom, thanks for an easy to follow tutorial. Question: having defined a split and assigned the instrument, are you then able to transpose the instrument within the split? For example, I want to put a lead sound in the upper octave of the keyboard, but I want it to sound in the mid-range. Do-able?
Hey Dom thanks so much for these informative tutorials! I’m learning so much for my MODX 😊. Would you have a video on how to create SCENES? I’m a bit confused on how to do it Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺!
Happy New Year Dom ! Fairly basic stuff here . Could you do more in depth videos on assigning the Super Knob. Specifically morphing thru multiple Parts in a Performance and doing Filter Sweeps with Foot Controller/SuperKnob. Thanks!!
Indeed, this is Montage 101 but there were so many people asking for those things! Have you checked my video on how to program the Superknob? This might give you some answers :)
Dom Sigalas thanks for responding . I found your video on programming Super Knob with one click. Very helpful ! It is so much easier and quicker having someone SHOW how it works than reading about it in an instruction manual. Your videos are very clear and easy to understand. Keep up the good work my friend !
I think the concept was much simpler 40 years ago with the OB-8 where you just had an upper and a lower button and could set the part accordingly. You could basically do splits on the fly without reading glasses and tiny fingers. Why are these buttons not on the keyboard. those 2 and a transpose button - entering the interval by playing the note. Try this exercise with a Montage - You're on a job and the singer wants to sing that complex chart up a minor 3rd. The audience is quietly waiting - Okay, Go! . . . . Is it really better to have a Motion SEQ Trigger button? Quick - what is a MS On/Off button? Who thinks of these designs? And my favorite flaw is no labeling of the inputs on top of the keyboard, so you'll need a flashlight and have to lift your keyboard up to see what you're actually plugging things into. The main problem for me is, it's really the best sounding keyboard by far out there (for AC & E. Pianos) so I have little choice. Next gen Montage hopefully will include basic button needs as well as endless complexities under the hood. I hope.
I have MODX. To bring out rich sounding strings like arco or legato do we have to layer them or the preset is good enough? Strings sound good on headphones but awful on stage. I’m not sure as a player, I’ll hear the same output as audience do but I have a feeling that strings aren’t rich or sounds dull relatively on stage with other band instruments. What’s the secret sauce?
Excellent so talented man 👨 I have a modx 7 and psr sx 900 , sx 900 has 10 registration we can store rhythm and voices and 16 tracks changes with chords how to do it in MOdX please guide
Happy new year dude :) Could you do a video with suggestions on ways to play backing tracks with or through the MODX? Either via the A/D input or USB or... maybe there's a third way I haven't thought of?
If you connect your phone or iPad through USB you can play backing tracks easily and have control over the volume with the USB knob :) or you can use a USB flash drive and play backing tracks. They need to be 44.1/24bit files though ;)
Hi Dom....is it possible to freeze split points even after changing transpose or octave , because when using transpose the split position changes...Plzzz answer me
Hi Dom! Happy new year! :) You are showing very familiar, simple and intuitive things... Are there really people which can't figure out how to configure such simple splits? Please, show us something interesting!
Hi Alex! You will be surprised but I've been doing Montage/MODX workshops around the world, the question that always comes up is how to create splits and layers! So I thought I'd do these quick videos to address these fundamental questions. Don't worry, more advanced stuff are on the way :)
How do you name the split? How do you store it? Where is it stored to? How do you recall it? How do you change the octave? Does this change the original patch? How do you restore that? This is complicated to me.
You forget to say: This is only useful when you add single-part performance(the green one). If you add multi-part performance, well, they've already had many splits & layers.

Press Store, Save Performance as new performance, done
How many splits we can do??
@@irfankhan-hb6sh technically u can do 8 splits because u work with up to 8 parts
Hi Dom, Happy New Year and thank you for this great video for MODX/Montage beginners ;)
Great, strait forward explanation on programming splits. Thank you very much for your video!
Just bought a Montage 6, thanks for your tutorial, I had no idea it was that simple :) You helped me a ton already!

Have you found a way to do this yet? Cuz I have the same question..
@@cuddlesworth I can imagine you can do this by simply storing it as a new performance with a lower octave, have you tried that?
@@joonglegamer9898 I've solved this by changing the pitch of instrument in patch, thanks anyway ☺️
@@cuddlesworth could you explain me how to do that please 🙏
Happy New & Creative Year, Dom! All the best!
Angel eyes 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Excellent information
Great. video! Happy New Year Dom!!👍🎉😀
Lovely, thank you for the simple steps
Happy New Year & many thanks, Dom! Looking forward to more of your excellent content in 2019. Best to you.

Hi i have a question. Why does my arpeggiator cut off notes when i adjust the range of the split or even the velocity
How do you save the split as a new sound?
Happy New Year and thank you for this video, and expecting more.
How to change the octave of a part?
Hey Carlos. Did you figure out how to do it?
how to edit octave split
I have MODX. To bring out rich sounding strings like arco or legato do we have to layer them or the preset is good enough? Strings sound good on headphones but awful on stage.

hi I would like to know how you have the screen "Mellow Grand Piano", you left this step out

Hi Dom, how about making a layer or split using the MoDX and an external instrument like a Roland FA?
Nice!! A tutorial on how to record audio to the MODX flash drive...Thanx!!

Hi Dom, what sound system are u using??? What sound system would be good for Modx synthesizer??? Please Let me know the Model Number.....
Hi Sree, system in terms of what :)
What speaker you using ? Yamaha hs series or msp series or other ?
Awesome! Question for the next episode... how to use the modx vocoder ?
Is it possible to have crosfaded splits on the Montage(like on Nord Stage)?
Please, switching sounds on the FLY Live , muting/ unmuting layers, Montage/Modx difference.
Desperately need it!
Nice sir
Hi How can you save all that, when at the time you turn it on again is there, tkss
Hi Dom....is it possible to freeze split points even after changing transpose or octave , because when using transpose the split position changes...Plzzz answer me
Nice
How to save tones and rhythm please explain sir
How can I adjust the octave?
Happy New Year dom can I make my own arpeggio in the montage
Yes you can :) I will make a video about this :)
@@DomSigalas when will you do it I can't wait
Thank you
What is split transpose
Hey! Can you please upload a Sample Robot tutorial for MODX?
Hi Dom!
Happy new year! :)

@@DomSigalas Great! Waiting for deep midi controlling :)
Have a nice day!
There are always more beginners than advanced players. And advanced players can usually figure things out on their own. :)

How to save split?
You forget to say: This is only useful when you add single-part performance(the green one). If you add multi-part performance, well, they've already had many splits & layers.
Yes but they’re already done from you from the sound designer. :)
Happy New Year
Happy New Year Paul :)
how to save this and where to save it?
You can save as new performance :)
it's very late to execute, everytime you touch the screen.....
jes
You didn’t explain even how to get to the first page. It’s not a good job.
The video is to small and you tolk too fast
