Ya ey😢😢think shipping would be quite pricey... Hard to accept but ya..... Keep me in your prayers, hopefully some good samaritan isn South Africa decides to let go of his soon...... Thanks for your swift response man, really appreciate it
@@CJW-Media i want to get this keyboard to practice and to make music. i also play the guitar as well. how much would this keyboard cost me? There is no better feeling than making music not a single drug in the universe can touch the feeling i get when making music
@@chasejarvis7788 you can get a Yamaha Motif XS for quite cheap, I bought mine in 2006 so they’re old keyboards now. Adding new get in the new year, can’t wait 😜
What was the first piece you played (up to 2.30 - 3.00 thereabouts?) Do you have the sheet music? My daughter would just love to learn it! Didn't sound too rusty to me, very nice, thank you for uploading this
Thanks for the kind comment, I stopped playing live in 2007 and have done very little since, I should be ashamed lol. Getting back into it and got lots of plans for 2024. The piece between 2:00 & 2:30 is I Giorni and 2:30 and 3:00 is a piece called Le One, both by Ludovico Einaudi. I had sheet music for it but I’ve no idea where it is, probably buried under crap in my studio!!! Its a nice piece of music :)
To be honest, some of the faders a done, one is broken completely. Plan is to fix it up a bit, putting a Fantom 8 and PA5X in the studio next year, so the Motif has been long retired. Hoping to get back into music properly, but I’m as rusty as hell.
It still does the job for me, although I’m buying some new keyboards later in the year/start of next year. Great sounds for its age, you’re welcome to come by the house and have a nosey yourself.
amazing keyboard, super versatile there are thousands of great sounds on it too.
Still praying for an XS8 😢my heart beats for the keyboard... But they are very rare to find in South Africa
I’ll be getting rid of it this year, but getting it to SA would be rather expensive I think 🤔
Where exactly are you based hopefully we can work something out?
@@christiaanbarry I'm in Scotland 😊

I've got the 6. I retired it for a while, intending to sell it, but now it's an often used survivor. So many good sounds!
hey can you sell it to me please ?
Your playing is wonderful and it sounds really good! 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for the kind comment :)
i really liked that first piece of music that you played on this keyboard it was beautiful
Thank you so much for the kind comment. I’m very rusty and apprehensive about uploading more stuff, but I’ll get around to it soon :)

Im saving up for a used Yamaha Motif XS or XF hope the XS is not that much of a downgrade comapred to the XF.
If I get new keys you can have my Motif :)
@@CJW-Media did you manged to get new keys ?
@@leonardmunyadziwa3295 unfortunately not, life has been rather brutal and changed drastically. Still got plans, just been delayed by circumstances.
@@CJW-Media okay am in South Africa and there’s a guy selling his for $1400 USD, is it a good price?
Yes it is !@@leonardmunyadziwa3295
i did some research this synthesizer came out in 2007 did have it ordered before it came out in 2007 and got it a year early?
I can't remember to be honest, it must have been 2007 if that's when it was released 😊

Couple of hrs m8 u will be back to ur best good to watch again . Adam
Cheers Adam. Been a long time, rusty as f*** lol
are the faders /drawbars loose ? or pretty
tight like master volume fader ?

Do you think this is worth buying in 2023? Or do I need to look for something newer?
It still does the job for me, although I’m buying some new keyboards later in the year/start of next year.
