I love composing music...though unfortunately I have to admit...I'm not that good...but I enjoy making each and every song and most of the tracks I produce I use as background tracks on my woodworking UA-cam channel SMUGWOOD and my car restoration UA-cam channel SMUGWOOD MINI.
Ive created this channel as a place that I can upload my tracks, purely as a bit of fun. They're probably not going to be to everyones taste...but I welcome all feedback, good or bad and hope to improve as time goes by.

Yamaha Genos 2 - OutRun Splash Wave (Cover by Lee A Baker)
Since the 1980s Ive loved this track and always wanted to see if I could play it. I guess the Genos 2 isnt the goto instrument to play it on, but it's all I had to hand.
Overall im quite please with the end result. The Genos 2 lacks a few synth sounds that could have been useful, but I guess its not really sold as that sort of instrument...but it did the job really well.
Always happy to hear feedback (good or bad) in the hope that I can improve as a musician.
Thanks for watching.

Yamaha Genos 2 - Classical Restoration (Original Track by Lee A Baker)
Переглядів 1935 місяців тому
Yamaha Genos 2 - Classical Restoration (Original Track by Lee A Baker) Ive been restoring a classic mini for the last few years and uploaded a series of videos to UA-cam (Smugwoodmini). I try to make my own backing tracks where possible and created on a while back using Logic Pro X. Having recently bought the Yamaha Genos 2, I thought I'd have a go at playing the track using just the Genos 2......

Yamaha Genos 2 - Unboxing And First Power Up I tend to film new purchases so that if anything is faulty before use I can at least have some evidence to show the suppliers. I try my best to film in such a way that it can be easily edited and then uploaded onto UA-cam as I know that sometimes these videos can be of use to others. So this is the Yamaha Genos 2 and whilst I know there are a few oth...

Pod Go Line 6 Crashed and Froze after Updating Firmware - Possible Fix
Переглядів 12 тис.4 роки тому
Pod Go froze and crashed after updating? This may help. I recently bought a Pod Go and it was having issues. I updated it as per instructions and it completely froze and was no longer recognisable with Pod Go Edit. After searching for a solution, I emailed Line 6 who gave me a list of instructions to follow which fortunately worked straight away. If youre having the same issue, then maybe this ...
Genie With The Light Brown Lamp Smugwood Cover by Lee A Baker
Переглядів 1024 роки тому
My cover version of Genie With The Light Brown Lamp originally by The Shadows and Hank Marvin. Everything was mixed within Logic Pro X before finally putting the video together in Final Cut Pro. In this version I play lead to a backing track and added a few little parts to the backing track...just to add a few little finishing touches. I mainly use midi instruments and guitars to compose all of...
Riders In The Sky Cover by Lee A Baker
Переглядів 2104 роки тому
My cover version of Riders in the Sky. I used a combination of midi and 2 guitars to make this track. Everything was mixed within Logic Pro X before finally putting the video together in Final Cut Pro. On this video I went for a built of an old feel initially before switching to a more modern theme once the synths kick in. I mainly use midi instruments and guitars to compose all of my tracks, w...
Connecting the Blackstar HT5R MK2 Amplifier to Logic Pro X DAW
Переглядів 6 тис.4 роки тому
Connecting the Blackstar HT5R MK2 Amplifier to Logic Pro X DAW I'd been struggling to connect my Blackstar HT5R MK2 amp to Logic Pro X. Turns out it wasn't that hard but although it wasn't quite as simple as just connect a USB cable to the computer, it was fairly straight forward once I knew how.

Rings Of Saturn (Smugwood Original)
Переглядів 564 роки тому
Rings of Saturn is an original Smugwood recording. It probably sounds crazy (haha) but It's my intention to create an album accompanied by a cartoon style video about a space craft that takes of from Earth and each song represents visiting each planet. Rings of Saturn is of course the song for when the craft visits Saturn, before setting off to visit Uranus. :-) The song is also used on many of...
Omg...sorry...but no...so many things are missing...don t use only a midi file...work on it...but it can t be the final.result
It’s my first ever attempt at programming using the style creator. There’s a lot more work to get it sounding right but I’m still learning how to use style creator…it’s not an easy task 😊
@@leeabakermusic i understand u ;)...anyway style creator is cool...good luck to keep going :)
The style is very bad, even my Yamaha Psr 640 plays better.
This is work in process as it’s the first one I’ve ever programmed using style creator. I’m no musician so it’s a challenge. It’s far from finished, just the very basics…but still fun to play.
❤que lindo teclado quiero uno de esos pero No tengo el dinero 💰 para comprarlo 😢
Yeah they are a bit pricey unfortunately
Hi, mine doesn’t crash like this but it’s similar, te crash happens and only shows a blank screen, I tried this video but it didn’t work, anyone knows how to fix this?
Brilliant, well done Lee 👏
Thanks Paul. :-)
Nice cover and arrangement!
Thanks Bongo. Was a lot of hard work doing this and there's definitely a few things I could do better, but I'm quite please with it :-)
How to register the product .
hi can u help me ? i have the same problem like this, because i want to update the firmware from 1.40.1 to 2.0
Lovely restoration, looked like a real labour of love
Not something I ever want to go through again :-) But was worth all the stress...I think :-)
great job !!
Me encanto este estilo
Magnifique🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Nice cover Lee, I'm a big 80's music fan and same as you, using music production techniques has opened up a whole new world of music to me. Also, check out JulianCroot channel, his covers are spot on.
I really like doing it this way but im finding it quite tricky. Working on another track today (Depeche Mode). So many things keep going wrong but Im slowly sussing things out. Yamaha have been great with the advice but it only goes so far because I cant really expect them to help me with Logic Pro...but im almost ready to record my next track. Im attempting Photographic by DM :-)
@leeabakermusic I don't think people realise how much work goes into it, it took me a good 6 months to learn the basics, I'm now a few years in and still learning but loving it. You can tell the difference from my early songs to my newest ones lol. I've played the keyboard for years but could never finish a song like I can now with all the added tracks on top including drums, strings, orchestral elements, etc.
THANK YOU!!
I just got my Genos and I was shocked at the size they huge.
Im having to look at building myself a new desk...its been a struggle using the Genos 2 to its full extent...cant reach the mod wheel cause theres a chimney breast in the way :-) It'll be a summer project I think.
@leeabakermusic I'm using a quiklok z 716 stand it fills it completely but it's a perfect fit.
Hello Just Subscribed im saving up for the Genos2 i got the Genos 1 Genos 2 sounds nice
Im really impressed with it. It's taking me a while to get used to and learn all the different functions but im really enjoying using it.
Interesting video Lee, as I said before on another site, I'm looking forward to trying this same thing out with my G1. Thanks for sharing👍
Using the DAW does certainly add something different and definitely worth trying, but you'll probably find you run into various issues when setting up. Ive spent another hour or so with Yamaha on another issue but eventually we sorted it. I have my fingers crossed im all set up now, but the beauty of it all is that the Yamaha Tech Support is really good. Every time Ive called with a problem they've been great. :-) But once it's all set up it opens up new options. Im currently working on a Status Quo track and playing the guitar as they did/do isnt easy by hand on the keyboard and im still in the experimenting stage but hopefully I'll get the sound im after via the DAW...
Thanks Lee...keep us informed @@leeabakermusic
Fantastically done, Lee !!! Great performance. 👍👍 You do it with DAW, I’ll try it at GENOS1. The fun is the same. I’m looking forward to more videos. 😊 You can be proud of your musical talent. New subscriber for you. 👍👍 Greetings from Elvira. 🎹🎶🎵🎧
Thanks :-) Ive been on it all day trying to suss out a few DAW connection issues but hopefully it's all sorted now...certainly a big learning curve, but all fun :-)
Well done Lee. It matters not how you make your music, as long as you enjoy it and the end result is satisfying for you. There’s plenty of people who have gone before you who have cut their teeth in a similar way. You are walking in the steps of giants!! Enjoy! 😊
Thanks. So much to learn but hopefully lots of people to take inspiration from :-)
Nicely done Lee. You can't beat some early 80s music. :-)
For me, the best era. Think im possibly still stuck in the 80s :-)
@leeabakermusic You sound like me...I always say I'm stuck in the 80's too...lol
Hell yeah brother underrated track
Definitely :-)
Mine keep saying ," Firmware update fail Try again" and on my pod go it says "updating . Do I wait for keep on retrying?
You have got to play phantom on that ! Dah !! DahdahdahdayDAH!!!!!
Just for you I will do haha... :-)
You definitely could do with setting up a camera pointing at the keyboard so we can see what keys are pressed when you play a tune like this
Thats definitely something I can look into. I have a spare go pro which I may try out and see if it'll work inside. Its really good out side but seems to struggle inside but worth a try.
Definitely m8, evenn if youre just playing lead or something over the top of prerecorded sections then you get people like me who watch and copy where your fingers go, also its visually more interesting and adds more depth to your production
Christ thats a beast of a keyboard! Looking forwards to hearing you demo it!
Yeah its a bit bigger than I thought it would be. Sounds really nice...but im guessing my neighbours might disagree :-)
Cool
It's definitely an improvement over my previous keyboard...I just have to learn how to play the thing now though :-)
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! This worked I been trying all night more than 5 hours. Your time spent on this video is not in vain.
Glad it helped. I almost took the video down as I wasnt sure it was still relevant but sounds like it still works.
Thank you so much for this! This video helped me to reset!
Cảm ơn anh rất nhiều! tôi đã cứu lại được cái Pod Go của tôi 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Big thanks for this, spent an hour trying to unbrick it until I found your video. For anyone else, I had to update to the version I was on, 1.4, before it would let me update to the newest version
Thank you for this video! I was panicking after trying to update to 2.01 and the update failed. Note - If using MacBook, make sure you leave the updater in the foreground during the update, don't try to do something else, and make sure you computer doesn't go to sleep then you should be good.
I believe this applies for Windows as well. My PC flouted these and got bricked.
Thank you so much ❤ you saved me
Just updated to 2.0. This was helpful, but I could not go from 1.12 to 2.01. I tried multiple times, 2 different PC's and cables. What fixed the update was this instruction plus updating to 1.3 first. Then I went from 1.3 to 2.01 with fingers crossed and all seems good.
Omg in almost 10 attempts it’s working😭😭😭 Tips for another poor souls who got frozen pod go trying 2.0update : after you managed to detect your pod go with line6 updater, Download 1.40(the one that you already got) first ! This is how I got at least normally functioning pod go. bit scared to update 2.0 again😅 +2.0 update successfully done!
This video is useful even at the end of 2023 for the 2.0 firmware update! Thank you!
Un grand merci pour ton aide ,😊
Thank you sir!!! 2023!!🎉
Straight to the point! Thanks! 🙂
I need help I have the same problem but I don't understand how to do it. Could you give me more details? I speak Spanish.

My pod go has been returned after a week from new up to date software and totally frozen tried all that been mentioned , not happy
Thank you sooo muchh, you saved my pod
After updating the firmware, what is the purpose of doing a factory reset?
thank you
Thanks a lot, it worked and helped me fix my Pod Go! At the last step using Line 6 updater, it was stuck actually but I downloaded the firmware file and manually select choose local file to update.
how can i download the firmware file?
thank you so much. This video saved my day 🙏
I have the Go Wireless Pod and I try to do the procedure but I can't solve the problem, please help me!!!😢
This was exactly what I needed, thanks so much for making this video!
You saved my life bro !!!!. Thank you very much, i really need this :). ♥
It didn't work for me, I got in touch with line 6 and they asked me to take it to an authorized dealer, but in my country they don't have it... I'm upset
