This video is evidence that *Arrangement* > *Mixing* These days, people are too obsessed with mix and production techniques, but a good arrangement beats everything else.
@@DeezeNutsX These days, the approach seems to be about forcing everything to work through aggressive mixing/mastering. We seem to forget that the original Sound Stages were 100+ people, in one room, standing in the right place, playing a beautifully arranged song, live. This book on Mastering I read once sort of laid it out like "If you have a good arrangement/composition, the mixing will be much easier, and if you have a good mix, the mastering will be much easier." Exactly like what you're saying.
Mr. Katsunori, I love all your videos, but your "Track Making" videos are my favorite. You make it look so easy! Thank you for all the hard work. I'm amazed at your skill. You're a true shokunin.
It sounds really like from the 80's, e. piano, slap bass...... Glad that I grew up in the 80's to experience the great synth and all those 80's music. BTW, the original DX7 Mk1 can actually produce amazing string sounds even without layering or unison. ８０年代のいい感じの音楽ですね。ユニゾン無しでも、オリジナルDX７はサンプラーやハイブリッドシンセにも負けない綺麗でリアルなストリング音を出せます。Long live the DX7!!
It's a sound developper, he created the soundbank from Motif ES, Korg and lot of Yamaha synthetizer ! This guy is legendary, he created a lot of famous preset on some synthetizer. When I was reading his biography I was not ready for that !
As a sound designer he has created sounds for many Yamaha synthesizers such as the DX, SY, QY, VL, EX, CS, and MOTIF series, as well as sounds for Arturia’s software synthesizers.
Absolutely FANTASTIC Ujiie! It was very cool to see Cubase in another language! I thought the DX STRINGS could have done with a little 'Level Scaling' in the treble, but otherwise that was a GREAT demo. PLEASE make some more with the DX7II/FD soon?
I've noticed that when he does solos/leads he likes to bend the pitch wheel down. Which is interesting for me because when ever I do solos/leads I've always pitch-bended up. Maybe it's because I grew up watching a lot of live shows of guitarists like David Gilmour and Mark Knopfler who as guitarists have to bend the strings up when doing solos...and I guess I subconsciously picked it up when playing synths.
I had a Yamaha V-50, which went out after the DX-7, and played with it for 15 years (1 kilo per year return on investment ;) How fun are those sounds right? I don't know what I like better - your playing skills or the fact you're having FUN with sounds! Great inspiration and going back to basics! Arigato :)
This man casually throws in an awesome solo to the end and doesn't even record it... I would wonder what awesomeness would they play that would be worthy of recording.
Teacher Katsunori Ujiie, I like your music performance very much。From youtube ,I learn many class about synthesizer, Tis time, the Yamaha DX7ii Track making , I like the song very much ,especially the last solo track , the patch sounds great,would you please tell me about the patch much more information . thank you very much !
That's a nice piano sound at the start of the video...........the DX 7 has earnt it's place in history whether you like those fm sounds or not....but is using a real DX 7 that much different to running an FM plugin?

今更ながらですがシンセサイザーって同じオシレータから発信された音であるにもかかわらず、その波形によりベースになったりエレピになったりブラスになったりそれぞれが独立した楽器の音として機能するのが不思議ですね。特にＦＭ音源の場合、その後のＰＣＭのようにサンプリング技術を使わずして比較的リアルな器楽音をシミュレートできる不思議さが当時世界を席巻しましたね。こんなすごい楽器がもう30年も前のツールだとは信じられない。
This video is evidence that *Arrangement* > *Mixing*
These days, people are too obsessed with mix and production techniques, but a good arrangement beats everything else.
If your arrangement is on point, you will have a WAY easier job mixing, half of your work is done with proper recording techniques and arrangement

すごい、ちゃんと80年代だ。
なんでFM音源って今聞いてもいい音色と思えるんだろう。FM音源って独特な不思議な魅力がありますね。
即興で打ち込んでこんな神曲作れる氏家さんに惚れ込むわ。
This guy is awesome. ;) Can`t stop watching his videos. I quite enjoyed this demonstration.
Mr. Katsunori came down in a spaceship and gave us his musical wisdom, then returned to his galaxy. Thanks Mr. Katsunori for your amazing talents!!
What a legend. This guy has a great energy, it's very inspiring.

Always the best melodies! I wish he made an album :(
Who is this guy??!? Some kind of old-school 80s-90s legendary composer?
Tommy Sasaki It looks like he's very popular. I bet his career is full of success.

Yep, look for K.Ujiie on arturia presets.
this guy is a legend
Excellent! Love the music & the DX7!!
やっぱ、DX7は最高ですねーw演奏されている氏家さんがノリノリな感じが分かりますw
not just a demo, but a genius at work!
Super good Harmonica solo!
落ち着く独特の優しさのある雰囲気がいいですね。
心地よい……
As much as I love the track, the intro to this video is one of the prettiest things I've heard!
The intro is SO DAMN BEAUTIFUL
かっこいい。シャレオツ。フュージョンのお洒落な感じ。うじいえさん最高です
This video makes me happy inside
I bet this guy can compose and record a full album in a single day!
Ujiee did that.
At the rate he's going, I bet he could do it in an hour!
That’s why Asians are better
So that's where all those harmonica solos in the 80s tunes come from!
isn't she lovely
Great demo! Your synth reviews are the best!
This is awesome. Love the DX7 so much.
The Dx7 is amazing synth! Riccardo
Awesome harmonica's melody!
I love his videos.....he's really having fun doing these...so much different than the cut and paste artists we so often see
You are very talented and super cool :)
Wow. Talk about breathing new life into the DX7. This is funky!
Now I wanna see if I can make something with the FM synth plugins I got.
Powerful Katsunori! :') Always the best tracks making.
Love them!
動画は７年前なのに今感動してます。
Ha, this is really awesome!!! When I was a teenager back then I dreamed of having a DX7 II.
Excellent as usual
love this style, very 70s-80s melody and funkyfeel, enjoy your uploads very much.
Musictrackjp and Katsunori UJIIE ... always AWESOME
lol "right, there's no way out of it. .it's a DX after all. Electric piano!". golden.
素晴らしい！どうもありがとうございます克典先生！私は日本語を勉強し始めましたとあなたのビデオを視聴します！
And this is why the music to Rondo's Annex in YS Origin is so amazing. Japanese Jazz is just awesome.
I get tears from laughing man everytime you say : '' 1 , 2 , C! '
You need to be a producer man and bring us 80s music back!
すごい！！！めちゃかっこいい！！！！大好きです！！！
Amazing work!
This guy is a true legend💯
Ujiie-san, you the best!
Your hand timing is perfect. Wonderful.
You make my head bobbing and my foot tapping !
Absolutely FANTASTIC Ujiie! It was very cool to see Cubase in another language! I thought the DX STRINGS could have done with a little 'Level Scaling' in the treble, but otherwise that was a GREAT demo. PLEASE make some more with the DX7II/FD soon?
Would fit right in on an Outrun soundtrack. Excellent as always!
I admire you mister Katsunori
amazing!!!! is great you are making tracks and not only a review!! nice track by the way! :)
I've noticed that when he does solos/leads he likes to bend the pitch wheel down. Which is interesting for me because when ever I do solos/leads I've always pitch-bended up. Maybe it's because I grew up watching a lot of live shows of guitarists like David Gilmour and Mark Knopfler who as guitarists have to bend the strings up when doing solos...and I guess I subconsciously picked it up when playing synths.
That was great...so fun to watch 😀 Love those classic DX7 sounds.
Really nice funky feelin mister UJIIE !
great song u should write the music for forza motorsport
I had a Yamaha V-50, which went out after the DX-7, and played with it for 15 years (1 kilo per year return on investment ;)
How fun are those sounds right?
I don't know what I like better - your playing skills or the fact you're having FUN with sounds!
Great inspiration and going back to basics!
Arigato :)
I'm a little surprised that Michael McDonald was not immediately summoned by this awesome song for an impromptu vocal.
YOU ARE SO AMAZING YOU MADE THAT LOOK LIKE CHILDS PLAY I AM IN AWE OF YOUR AWESOMENESS UJIIIE SAN
Excellent… love it. No idea what you said, but the music spoke. ❤️
I love when he starts dancing !!! hahaha so hilarious ;) great performance, Sensei Ujiie.
Belle démonstration avec ce pionnier DX 7 II clavier maitre midi.

Old Яomans lol haha
Hahahaha 😂 😂 couldn't stop laughing yo..
I did notice it too, despite being astounded by his skills.

Merci beaucoup sensei!
the 80's brass still rocks ...
You are a genius... This is said too much in life, but in your case it is applicable
Great demo, nice personality :)
I like that shirt too!
There you have it! The 80s found without translation.Super. Now I regret parting with my DX100
man those strings really bring the track alive, more than any other sound used.
Got to get my YAMAHA DX7 IIFD back from my uncle's place. It just sits now, but works excellent.
いつ聴いても深夜帯のニュースOPに聞こえる。
最高。DX7やっぱいいですね笑
vous êtes un champion Bravo maître mes respects
なるほど、この「エレピ」の音色、聞いたことが有ります。DX7だったんですね。
This man casually throws in an awesome solo to the end and doesn't even record it... I would wonder what awesomeness would they play that would be worthy of recording.
Hey Ujiie! You have to start adding subtitles to ALL your videos when you upload them! HIre someone to do it for all. You'll be a SUPERSTAR :D
DNG Maestro tuviste razón.
Amazing track!!!
A very nice track!
Amazing Skills
Such a great synth!
I have to get my DX7IIFD up and running again!!!!
This guy just re-invented the soundtrack for Beverly Hills Cop in less than 10 minutes.
Teacher Katsunori Ujiie, I like your music performance very much。From youtube ,I learn many class about synthesizer, Tis time, the Yamaha DX7ii Track making , I like the song very much ,especially the last solo track , the patch sounds great,would you please tell me about the patch much more information . thank you very much !
Funky chicken. this guy is so cool. Well done.
Really an excellent demo, sounds great
PS whomever is giving thumbs down to the happiest synth player on the internet needs their CR2032 changed.
You’re the best honor man! 🙇🏽♂️
That's a nice piano sound at the start of the video...........the DX 7 has earnt it's place in history whether you like those fm sounds or not....but is using a real DX 7 that much different to running an FM plugin?
Always feels like I am watching the most sought-after Roland senior product manager when watching this. guy 😁🤟🎹
