Super Warm FM Sounds on the Yamaha Montage
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- I perform an ambient improvisation using only FM sounds which I have programmed from scratch.
Many people are intimidated by the idea of programming FM but on the Montage it is quite easy. Hear the beauty of the Montage FM sound engine with these warm sounds I have created!
While armchair musicians argue over what synth is best and why this or that synth sucks, real musicians can get good results out of any capable instrument, as Matt does here once again. It's what you put into your playing and programming that matters most. Beautiful!
So true. I‘ve heard people using a Montage for acoustic and DX7 piano sounds with string pads throughout. What a shame!
I have the montage and it is a lot MORE than a capable inst. Yes the player matters more usually but using the big M as the example is a bit hmmm, pretty much anyone could sound great on this beast - not saying he is just anyone as we all know he obviously has skills
But it doesn’t have that analogue tube warmth! 🙄
you have admit it though, the Montage is the Megatron of the digital synth world
Not all who argue are armchair musicians. Some are just enthusiasts who like to debate over sound.
Montage needs more demos like this all over You Tube. This is way more relevant to me than the same old myriad of pianos. All this FM power and very few show it off well. Great job!
How cool is it that Mr. Johnson, who is an accomplished and famous musician, also makes videos on RUclips to share his passion for synths and music? I am so glad I found this channel; it is informative and inspiring!
2 o’clock in the morning: Eating a cookie, having a sip of Irish whiskey, and a cosmic voyage to the interior of the soul with Captain Matt at the helm
Recently, I've started watching your videos videos with my 4 year old asking her to imagine herself in space, in a space caddilac. Or asking her to imagine herself as a space cowgirl. Or floating on a cloud. Or flying into the sun. Or diving deep into the ocean. Or imagine herself glowing in the dark. This is the value of your music. It literally takes you places and it's beautiful. Thank you for this content. It may be alot to ask but please keep making content. We are so appreciative if it.
Ah thanks that means a lot to me!
This is the best and most complex use of montage in a live performance, incredible work
Amazing sounds and performing. I never fail to leave your channel feeling inspired.
mellowestvibes I feel exactly the same way, he is the best.
Bravo!
This is what is needed, no more vst programs or new keyboards every 3 minutes, but real musicians making music of the soul Beautiful Matt, for these days, thanks
Some people have great chops others good taste and there are a tiny few who can sound design at the same level. There are however only a tiny handful of people who have all three. You, Matt, have all three in spades. I never fail to be thrilled impressed and joyful at everything you do. Oh and you most definitely should do an Ambient collection and release it.
Thanks!
We finally caught up with Deckard at his apartment
"I saw ceebeems at tannhäuser gate..."😪
Incredible... being transported away to the Offworld with these sounds... attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate... amazing work.
WoW, I missed that one. Who said that FM wasn’t expressive. Another great video of yours. Thanks Matt, very inspiring.
I had one of these back in 1975. What i loved was the BossaNova setting. It was very, very good.
Fantastic job! FM goosebumps! :-D
Soundset, soundset, soundset...!
Really nice Matt. I have the Yamaha MODX8, same engines, your sounds encourage me dive under the hood.
@matt for many of us it is a great privilege to be able to see you playing and learn; thank you very much.
Love these mellow sounds. Slow-attack pads, melodic elements and the fact you can play very well, all create a relaxing atmosphere.
Would love to be able to play like this. ❤️
Nice. Always a joy to encounter Mr. Johnson's expressive use of the synthesizer on the RUclipss.
The white montage is gorgeous. Really looks (and sounds) like a luxury instrument
This is absolutely amazing! It s the first time ever I have listened to the pleasant sounding FM synth.
Guess we don't need to miss the CS 80, those sounds at 1:22 are perfect
La synthèse Fm a encore de l'avenir avec Montage
Comme toujours très bon choix de sons Matt
Merci.
Love the FM sound, nice thoughtful playing. Great stuff
3:13 quite a stunning little 35 second piece which dives deep and then layers with a brilliant climactic cascade, well done Matt!
Love these sounds, reminds me of Tycho but even BIGGER
Dont know how you do it Matt.
Your chord structures are amazing.
I was totally removed from my surroundings.
Amazing.
What an awsome synth.
The montage is absolutely Epic.
Always inspiring.
Keep up the most epic work as always 🤜
Brill as usual Matt! Must spend more time with the FM engine in my MODX (keep being distracted by my SY99 you see ... 😉). Be safe and importantly everyone enjoy your bonus studio time!! 🖐😷🎹👍🍻
Cant get over what a MONSTER the montage is! Love the fm sounds, so dreamy.
Beautiful, FM from another galaxy, I was drifting away, much needed thank you as always truly inspiring ... 🙌🏻😎🙏🏻🎹🎶
Stunning! Those pads are so atmospheric. Great sound design and playing Matt. Wonderful.
Beautiful sounds to wake up to this morning.
It's a very high quality demo that I would like Yamaha to post on its website.
Incroyable
Wonderful programming and playing. I’ve been doing a lot of similar FM-X programming from scratch as well. Loving the alternate operator waveforms, 8 operators and 88 algorithms. Great stuff, and impressive! Subscribed 👍
Mesmerizing soundscapes.
Stunning synthesiser and great keyboard skills as always!
Oh my goodness this is so beautiful
Thanks for allowing me to take a trip on a Star, Matt ... KPM would be proud!
My my Mr. Johnson, what a big ol' thang you got there.
No seriously, the Montage sounds amazing but it's so frickin BIG!
Wim Rijksen And very heavy! Go for the 7 instead if ur gonna be gigging w/ the board.
@@BrJD-ii4iv Not planning to but thanks for the heads up.
No idea why this was recommended to me but I'm glad
Man, you got an ear for those moody sounds. Love it, beautiful music.
Beautiful! Simply beautiful!
Love the fact that this was performed with your own custom patches which goes perfectly with your music stylings! Bravo and well done!
Que lindo suena ese Montaje 8 😍 un saludo Mr Matt Johnson 👌👋 desde 🇵🇾 Paraguay Sudamérica
Fabulous! It's always pleasure to listen to your performances
Stunnings sounds and playing once again.
Hi Matt, fantastic sounds and amazing playing. So Much better as the new Behringer teaser early in the morning.😎
I love what i hear from you ! keep it up, and thank you for the inspiration and those special vibes we do all need to hear just right now.People need to dream again about nice things.......so let's close our eyes and.............Great job, as usual .Matt x.
I appreciate that!
Another inspiring video Matt 👌🏻
I am hobbling around home after knee surgery and trying to get my head around FM synthesis... Albeit on an Electron Digitone keys and this pops up onto my feed...
That's awesome, hope you'll do things like this more and more. Thank you
Absolutely beautiful soundscape Matt! Great to see you healthy and creating my friend. Bless!
Lovely, just what I needed to hear. Very nice sounds and a real change to hearing subtractive synthesis most of the time. Maybe get that Modx7 now...
Amazing as always - listened to with my morning coffee - perfect way to start the day !
Lovely. Thank you Matt.
Lovely Sounds !
Beautiful! I love mine. So inspirational. Version 3.0 has made a big difference too. Thanks for sharing. 💁🏼♀️
I love your sounds
very nice
very good
very beautiful
Beautiful, watching you play the Montage it seems CS-80 like in how it responds to your playing.
Would love to have these patches for my Montage ! Great work and awesome play Matt !
Nice sounds!
Beautiful
Woodpeckers outside my window, coffee in hand, 8 operactor invite, good morning, Montage man.
Sounds so good. Love the way you use all the sounds. Very musical instrument. Top shelf
I hear what is done here if it wasn't for motion control and seamless switching all the sound had to be separately being blend with control switching using multiple keyboards, pedals and devices, Sir that is some amazing fine programming a joy to listen to and inspiration.
I love it. Bravo. These sounds are amazing. You are amazing.
Soooo beautiful!!
Hi Matt, that’s it. You’ve basically just sold me a Yamaha Montage 8, after all the Montage-videos I’ve seen on RUclips, this one tipped me over the edge to actually buy one. My wife will not like you after this....hehehe. All the best :-)
It's a good buy! Grab it on my affiliate link!!
Montage sounds great , thought that when I first heard one. Your playing , well again it’s brill , always nice to see you play , your always into it and don’t come across as another bored player , top marks ! Cosmic music , you need to hit some magic mushrooms then you will be in that realm !
Great sounds. Favourite sound at 1:22.
wonderful
You could create an album only with this sounds testing. Wonderful.
fantastic
Amazing
Awesome!
eargasm at infinity in a recurrent self-starting cycle
Amazing 👏👏🎹👏🔥
Hi Matt. Very inspiring. I just acquired a Montage 6 ( with your helpful recommendation) and wondered if you might consider offering your Montage performances as purchasable downloads.
Thanks again for all the great video demos and tutorials.
Yes I will sell a sound set at some point
Should’ve had you do the blade runner 2049 soundtrack. Absolutely beautiful progressions and sound design 😭
Nice!!! A roland fantom review and soundtest would be much appreciated if you plan on getting one.
Wonderful sound universe as always, whether it is Jazzy or Ambient like here.
Matt, what is the best way/media except this Channel (already subscribed and notified) to follow your news, especially about your highly anticipated forthcoming Album ? Thanks for sharing your Art and talent !
Thanks! You can find me on Instagram
Epic!
Divine
Happy.
wow love these sounds, can you upload them?
👍👍👍....
Absolutely lovely! Is the reverb also coming from the Montage ? Very lush sounding
Thanks, yes all sounds from the montage
amazing work ,sick sounds...how can i have these sounds on my montage?
Enjoying this demonstration, Mr. Johnson. Definitely appreciating the pure tones layered with ring mod.
Apparently, one could transfer patches from the DX7 to this model or the MODX. Have you tried doing so?
No I haven't tried but I believe that is correct
Thank you Mr. Johnson.
When Elon Musk privatises space, you need to be playing this in the moon base arrivals lounge.
Great observation, made me smile
You idiots can stay in space.
@@fromdusktodawn509 Who hurt you, my man? :(
Please do More Videos !!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Can you make keyboard lessons on these songs? I really enjoy your stuff!
If you don't mind, can you tell me the names of the performances you used?
this demo just inspired me for something i need to do
thanks :) keep it up
Thanks! The patches are all ones I programmed myself, I encourage you to have a go and make your own
@@MattJohnsonJamiroquai I was almost 100% sure you made them, i'l try, first i have to finish learn and understand the algorithms. Thanks man :D definetly the Montage is a blessing
Dear Matt,
after such a long break, this four-minute charge, very little! Please load the my regular Matt Johnson dose as soon as possible! (I have a Montage too, but unfortunately I'm not you ... If I listen to you a lot, I’m going to plant potatoes in it, but it’s okay!)
Wouldn't it be hard to replace Boris with Matt? Every musicians would do better... I'm sure!
Are these stock or did he make them? They're beautiful.
Mattage- when human and keyboard are one.
Hi Matt, whats the best or closest sounding Rhodes patch on the Montage 8 closest to what would have been played at Westlake by Greg Phillinganes in the 1979-82 period for QJ? Is there an additional library for Rhodes patches from Yamaha for the Montage you recomend?
it be great to have these patches available to the public free please?
@mattjohnsonsonjamiroquai What do you think if Yamaha could update the OS in this board since it already has the AWM2, FM-X Engines with these new engines for example some engines they’ve used in the past like, AN( Analog Modelling), VL (Virtual Synthesis) , VCM (Virtual Circuit Modelling from the Yamaha YC61), SY-Engine, CS-Engine,An1x Engine ,FDSP with few features of the Yamaha Reface series inside the board! I would like your opinion on that?!
Plz make these sounds available for download
