How to use virtual instruments with a Yamaha P515
It turns out that a digital piano designed for home practice is one of the best setups you can use for a home music studio. The Yamaha P515 has built in speakers and a built in audio interface which means most connections and setups can be accomplished through software. No bundle of wires required.
This video shows you how to use the virtual instruments in garageband with the Yamaha P515 digital piano. Just one cable connects the ipad to the piano.

Simply piano beta walkthrough - piano sheet music app for ipad
Переглядів 9 тис.4 роки тому
The simply piano app has been covered already by many people but it seems nobody has done a walkthrough of the "beta" features. It's like a whole new app that caters to intermediate players wanting to transition to paper sheet music with a ton of useful features. I see this growing into an amazing piano player platform.
USB C is a nightmare but it doesn't have to be
Переглядів 8 тис.5 років тому
It's time to tell the tragic story of USB C. A dream to unite everything that turned into a nightmare. I love USB C but I hate being forced to use it. I'm sure I got a lot of things wrong and you will all jump to correct me. I'm looking forward to it. This time I got so sick of editing the pictures together that I think I'm going to switch to filmed content for my next videos. Finding the right...
Just print a PCB (HOW TO)
Переглядів 118 тис.5 років тому
In this video I share how I stopped struggling with toner transfer and now I just make my boards for a few dollars at the local mall. UV printers are an amazing tech that's gone unnoticed by the DIY community for some reason.

    I live in Brazil bro. I buy a 10w laser to make PCB and some fine cuttings because we don't have that technology around.

    Is there a way to assign different voices (piano, bass, strings,...) to the MIDI channels 1-16 on the P515, so I can use them for sequencing? Basically a multi-timbral setup? E.g. with Cubasis iOS I have sequenced a MIDI bass track on channel 1, a MIDI piano track on channel 2 and a MIDI Pad track on channel 3, can I play this over the P515?

    1 mil is equal to .0254mm. Your 1mil and 5 mil is breaking up. You need to use 8 mil...because that line shows good all the way thru. That means you can't go below .1mm.

    Hi I hope all is well with you and the family Its been a while since this video I need your assistance regarding uv printer I would like to purchase one however cannot afford the thousands for now Maybe in the future if I should ever make a sale I don't know if you have ab idea we're to purchase them even if refurbished once I have also seen 3d resin printers with UV curling lights I thought I ask you if that is ok Finally the etching chemicals required Sincerely ejike

    I have a CNC Router driller Jot / ozo automation with automatic tool change (it had a photoplotter but cannot find one). Can you use a laser engraver ? like 10 or 40W? Or where do you find a uv head?. The advantage of my cnc is I have pins to revert the Double face and the drill can be aligned . I have also a pen holder. Do you think pen paint will work? (this crazy machine works under dos with a PC386DX but I still do the maintenance and programming on it)

    Probably the only downside to this method is owning/finding a place with UV printers. Where I live (latin America), no kiosc or mall has these at all. Neither can I find them being sold anywhere.

    However, the million-dollar question for me is: is it possible to assign different midi channels to external hardware/vst synths? Could you potentially create multi-track midi-recordings where only the external synths are playing?

  • @larrybud

    Home PCBs are very easy, but you need to do it right: 1) The magazine thing is not ideal. Get real transfer paper 2) While every video I see shows someone cleaning the board, you also need to etch the full copper in your FeCl BEFORE transferring, You only need to throw it in the bath for 30 seconds or so. Then rinse it off. It will come out dull copper. The toner will stick MUCH better to it than a shiny board, even if you try to rough it up with steel wool or scotchbrite. 3) a regular clothes iron is lousy. I use a hobby iron used for covering RC airplanes. Set it and CHECK the temp. It needs to be 300 deg F. Also the iron itself needs to be flat, and then, very importantly, you need to FLATTEN it again on sandpaper! 320 grit works well. This thing needs to be dead flat. I regularly transfer very delicate lines very successfully. With the transfer paper (it's actually clear plastic), you can SEE when the toner has transferred, and you can lay it back down in case something didn't transfer over.

      Another method that I found is using spray paint as photoresist and etching it with a laser. It should have better resolution than most UV printers (I know that some fiber lasers can do 5000+ DPI). A UV printer can also be used for printing a "silkscreen" after the board is finished though, so it can have 2 uses :)

    This is the good out of the box ideas that can change the way we make things. This can save so much time if your current method is down, and if you didn't have any means to do it, all of a sudden you have

  • @sunriseatpalamos2009

    What you are showing can also be done with P125, so this is not a new feature introduced with P515 as you imply. Also, the way you show on how one can remove the local sounds of the piano is complicated and unnecessary. If you look into the manual it is very easy and well explained how to disable local sounds, by just pushing 3 buttons. So you do not need to buy a P515 to get these features, they are there also with P125.

    Does the P515 have a Bluetooth transmitter to transmit sound to Bluetooth enabled hearing aids. What latency is there? < 5 ms? Should a Bluetooth transmitter possibly be connected to the headphone output of the P515 : aptx with Bluetooth version 5.2 ?

    Good idea, I like the creativity. What do you think, making silver ink with some UV compounds would work? As printing on some other materials instead of PC would be so much better.

    Yes but since you do not know the quality of that printer : you can expect anything and most bad thing most of the time. The simplest solution is to project an uv image on the board after having sprading it with sensitive resine..
