Sounds great. It was strange, but cool, listening to someone who’s style and choice in chord progression, part and melody writing (as would be most fitting to express a patch) is eerily identical to my own. Don’t know if you approach it this way, but I view my role, in the “writing” process, as a bridge or conduit through which these songs/parts may move from wherever they’ve been waiting, into my presence. To better explain, my experiences lead me to understand that my gift is in noodling as if I’m putting a call out, or sequence, and if there is a small segment that matches a small piece of something greater, that small segment makes itself known. I then acknowledge that offering and commit to drawing the rest of it’s true form through the instruments and or speakers. These sessions, not to be confused with some starry minded spiritual experience, lead me to view the songs or parts as gifts granted to me, rather than something that I created. There is an undeniably profound difference between music that I have taken to steering and that which I have allowed steer. The latter always being deeply moving, personally, and something I’ll never grow tired of listening to. I figured, since you’ve such a similar sound, you might also be led in such a manner. Either way…I enjoyed your demo and will sub. All the best. p.s. had to edit this, because I forgot to ask, do you ever tune up to 444hz?
Hi, thanks for the message and the kind words! I just like to play , have so many unfinished ideas,hopefully sometime i will finish them :) never tuned up to 444hz why?
@@NicolasMelis I’m with you on the unfinished ideas. I do best if I can get it all out in a six to eight hour time period. So…the 444hz thing…a few years ago, while researching lesser known history, I came across information about the international pitch that everything is tuned to had been adjusted down by 15.66738339053554 cents (if you ever need to put the precise alteration into software or a keyboard). Hopefully I will be able to provide some good pointers on this topic so as to allow you your own individual experience/s of what you can tell is so vs any chatter begging your allegiance. I’ve come to live by: Never leaving to others what I can learn or solve on my own. Why care? Frequencies play a much larger role in influencing our overall health, energy, ability to relax etc than we have been told (not educated). If you were to care to study a bit of Royal Raymond Ride’s work w/ the sonic resonant qualities of each tiny organism, cell, what have you, in our body, it will actually aid a more brood (but well defined) scope of the bigger picture of the influencing of music to our bodies. You could also look into the study of Cymatics. It’s really amazing stuff. As well as perhaps finding videos of fellow brothers and sisters who have taken their Nikon Cool Pix P900 and P1000 cameras to zoom in to (they have the most powerful zoom of any camera on the market) the stars above. And what you’ll see time and again, if they haven’t been scrubbed, are these beautiful Cymatic patterns, perfectly observable in these frequency generating bodies. It’s pretty insane. Sooooo…the change of pitch, as I have personally come to know is correct (to me, but don’t take my word for it), is that the adjustment was to cause a stress on our bodies, when subjected to frequency placement. What the heck does that mean? Well, here are a couple/few experiments you can conduct yourself: I’ll begin with stating that the earth emits an unnoticeable, consistent tone that sits almost perfectly at 8hz. That said, these experiments many allow your noticing of the differences between a string of and acoustic instrument (or digital keyboard) either being tuned with the earth vs the present suggested international pitch. *First cool thing to do: Simply oscillate your voice, with an ahhhh or ooooo or whatever vowel sound you decide to create. The aim will be to, as you are rising and falling, find the shelves where your natural voice is leading you to rest it. (It would help if you record yourself) After you have recorded a good five to eight, or so, sung pitches that you have slid into and sustained, as to provide baselines from which can be compared. The goal is to either play your recorded vocals while you are holding a chromatic tuner, to observe if the notes naturally sung are all consistently sharp or flat to international pitch. It doesn’t matter whether the consistently fall sharp or flat. What matters is how interestingly, exactly “off” you voice should be to that tuner. If you have a clear success in that, that would be a great start. [side note - I recommend you trying this stuff out in the middle of the night, when much of the environment is free of the sounds of life.] * Second Exercise: If you have a guitar, sit on the floor with the guitar in your lap, twist the strings out of tune a bit, then take to ever so slowly (muting the other strings so you can deeply focus on that single string) tune that string to where it’s telling you it wants to be. You’ll hear the wavelengths speed up or slow down. Keep tuning until those wavelengths stretch out to match, unwavering. Then, like your voice, measure the sharp/flat ratio. [when a string/instrument is tuned to the earth…the note will sustain very nicely.] * maybe write a lil something in the 444hz and see if it both captures you in a more or less profound way and if you sing as well, whether it’s easier for you to be spot on. While there’s other stuff, that should be enough to make for a fun block of time, should you care to try something out. Would love to hear how it goes/went if you decide to have at one of those suggestions. Thanks and enjoy. It’s a wonderful dynamic to explore. Ohhhhh…also…make sure you find out whether or not your keyboard is set to be tempered in a certain manner, if you shifted it at some point. Because that will screw up the experiment by making otherwise steady, harmonious notes, into off putting twisted whatever’s. Last thing…if your environment is quiet enough (automobiles outside etc), when you pluck/play those single notes, allow them to sustain long enough to see if you notice a tonal drift up or down the decays death throw. Aligned tones to earth frequency will stay locked and level from strike/pluck to silence. The direction that note heads, tells you the closest direction you could go to find the spot harmonious with the earth. Take care.
@@NicolasMelis It’s been about two weeks since I had gifted you with what, in the present day, is referred to as “sacred knowledge”. While I can appreciate a busy schedule, I’m estimating that you had to have tried out a thing or two with matching to earth frequency…yeah? Thoughts yet? All the best!
Sounds amazing! I like your playing. and the Polymax Also you have a new subscriber. Just from your playing, the titles of your videos and a quick look at your setup... I'm gonna enjoy this quite a lot!
Thanks For For Video Review !!! ( i have this one sitting in my UAD wish-list ) the main problem is, the unmentionable ethnicity is making everyone work way to hard for nothing polishing their asess, to have much time to compose music. it's been like this all my life. - rulgert ghostalker
@@NicolasMelis i also have the Mini Moog, Ravel, Lexicon 224, LA-3A Optical comp, and Studio D Chorus in my wish list now too .... big sale until the end of the month. i have lots of different compressors, but the LA-3A hardly uses any resources, and is a pretty transparent compressor stage.....i have to go over my bills, and see how many i can get.
@@NicolasMelis pretty psyched on the PolyMAX.....that's right up my ally. i looked at the Opal analog/wavetable, but i don't use my super synths much, so nah .......i like synths i can pull up in the ball park that will contain my mind.. sometimes i grab my NI FM-8 , that's my favorite super synth......but most times i go for staples.
@@NicolasMelis this would be my third Mini Moog ( how many do i need? ....just the best one ) ...i have the NI knock off and the Artuia ( V-collection mini-moog ), which is really pretty good .... but i might have to trim my list at check out anyway.
They got it right with that metalic box sound and Moogish filter but I am not compelled. The design of this thing is awful. It doesn't feel like you want to do any sound design by looking at it. The knobs look random. You can hardly tell where one section of the synth begins and ends. Sliders must be envelopes. Terrible awful design. Makes me angry just by looking at it.

Amazing sounds!!
Thank you 🙌🎹
Looks (particularly the ARP sliders) and sounds very 70s - which is a good thing.
I agree :)
Love this demo man! really appreciate it, especially the 2 saws 💜
Glad you like it 🎹

I was just improvising :)
