Needed that! Thank you for mentioning the meaning of all the abbreviations.

Hi there great video(s). Would you know how I can play a YC88 Organ voice from an external keyboard (Kurzweil K2000S) while playing a piano voice on the YC88? With Thanks Dave in BC

I suppose in a mix anything could sound ok

lol still cant create your own folders to organize anything, smh unbelievable...

promo sm 😱

I wish I wasn't poor lol, I WANT THIS!

Just like manyyyyy other people . . . I suffer from WirePhobia 😂😂🤩🤩 i am terrified by those analog synth wires with terms like "Shift Registers" !! But big ups for the video, and keep it going sir 🥰🥰

Purchased a license for VPS Avenger for a lot of money. Now the license does not work and the website says I need to purchase a license for Avenger2. NOT HAPPY!

Enjoying the video, not sure if what caused it however the high pitched hiss had me wondering pausing and playing the video to see if it was in my room, lol. I was sure I could hear the internet cable box hissing but no not this time.

How about rhe other way arround? Recording your performances on vcv to FL. Here is a tutorial ua-cam.com/video/pTQNQuAGstc/v-deo.htmlsi=z1OtNLzDrhlLbrJ3

Thanks

Cool overview Jim. This has become my go-to synth. You can design almost any kind of sound with it, and the FM/PM patching possibilities are crazy good.

Thanks for sharing this, juat started playing with my hydrasynth connected to xd via cv. This gave me some good ideas. I hadnt thought of layering them both triggered simultaneously, thats going to me a lot of fun

Is Read out and switces too small ? Can you save custom layered and splits and easily access them ? Thx!

The U1 upright is beautiful!

Wow, this keyboard looks amazing. I'm curious about the pad sounds. I play a lot of worship music and need to pair pads with pianos. Are there any videos about that type of sound design you could point me to?

Great machine!

Just got my hands on it. Let’s go!

Hi is this patch available to download? thank you

Very detailed and insightful video

Is this patch available to download? thanks

Kontakt version please

is this patch available to download? thanks

This tutorial video is amazing! Thanks Jim!

In therms of hammond sound is this the same as the hammon sk1pro or nord electro? which has the better sound

sorry but my kontakt 7 doesnot show that old style view, on left side there is no any library, whe i click that library icon it switches between old style (but not showing side pannel on libraries) and new style browser....

I like the 24 step option, but would only need 16. Could you chain 2x 960s and keep having 3 lanes?

I bought it and it's amazing!

Tangerine Dream!

Okay, I just checked, and yes, it does spike a single core inside Logic on a Mac Studio at a 64-sample buffer setting (which is very low). Raising the buffer to 128 sample - a standard setting - brings the performance meter back down to about 75%. Having said that, the machine wasn't choking at 64 samples, and if you open Activity Monitor you can see that the overall processing is fine - it was just a single processing thread that was spiking. Where does that leave you, most likely using a different system? I'd contact NI tech support and ask what they recommend. But yeah, it is processor-intensive.

Hello. I just purchased this. I have sued all the products purchased from NI - This is one is exciting but I am stumped by having too many percussive noises rather than musical sounds . It almost feels like a found percussion module rather than an colourful piano module. I love the particles engine but im find I can only use one or two sounds to create musical ideas ; Layers of pleasing sounds is good bit if the sounds are noises or percussion - it becomes more limiting that I first imagined . Is that a fair view? Or do I need to dig deeper? It also chokes my CPU - I can Run a few different NI guitars in separate kontakts. - but loading this -even on its own - i s challenging my system - slowing down any kind of work flow . Any views?

Does it have a leslie?

Great review 🙂

Awesome. Thanks for all the great info! This is a great instrument

So much love to detail sounds and a great presentation. This video is the reason why I bought yesterday a YC73 and I can't even play. Thanks a lot for your explanations 👍

You will not regret buying this synth!

Good clear comprehensive demonstration.

It's A Shame Yamaha didn't put Proper Piano Engine with string resonance and so (like at they home clavinova) on this instruments (CP&YC Piano's).

Hw many layers can we add? & Total no of tones?

👍

Mine is in regular use. It goes to interesting places always! I love it!

Hi Mark thanks for the review,i'm interested in the Roland Integra 7 and wondered if you had any thoughts on it - from what i've found on youtube it sounds really nice so wondered what your thoughts are on it please ?

Kays, how might one reverse the envelope follow trigger? For example, I want the modulation to increase at the lower amplitudes, and for the modulation to decrease at the higher amplitudes?

Wow I'm going to watch more of your videos the layering of the piano with synth and organ etc so wonderful, so the montage does all this and more ? What keybed does the montage have

Hi Mark.. can you sequence soft synths with this via the USB connection ? Cheers Phil and thanks for the video too. :o)

Question: why use the Rack 2 VST rather than running Rack independently from the DAW, since it appears that routing MIDI and audio back and forth is the same either way. I've been thinking about buying it, but I'm not sure what the advantages are

Seems Yamaha has taken ideas from Korg, Nord and Roland with this keyboard to make it more aimed at live performance. Roland has had the "drawbar" idea for ever, then Korg Kronos, and Nord has been know for their three different areas making them easier to change patches live and on the fly. Give the Key people what they want, nicely done Yamaha! Yamaha has improved on their Hammond sound, nice piano strings and horns for a for a long time, but getting around in their instruments for live performance used to be more difficult, They may have solve that with this keyboard.

Interesting video and article. I’ve just - in the last couple of months - resurrected my OB-12 after giving it nearly 22 years of rest. I have updated mine to v1.52 with no bother (except for anxiety on my part having read of other peoples disasters). You mention that you haven’t upgraded yours so I was interested to know what version yours is on? Good range of sounds in the video too.

Thanks for making this. I remember tinkering with one when they were newish. What did them in at the time was that VA didn't sound very analog on many VA synths, and this was very true of the OB12. It really lacked the lush growl of the OB-x, OB-8, etc. It also lacked the potential thickness you could get out of an Access Virus, or the modulation depth of a Waldorf Q, which were both already released when this came out. The Alesis Andromeda, while much more expensive, blew all these away of course with its analog guts, and was a benchmark for hardware sound people wanted. Even the Alesis Ion, which couldn't do nearly as much as the OB12, had a more analog-like sound than the OB12, for half the price. By about 2005 or so, you could find good used OB12's dumped on the market for under $1000 without looking hard at all (impossible now). What we all missed at the time was that the OB-12 actually sounded pretty good anyway, VA or otherwise. You could get a wide variety of sounds out of it, as you demonstrate, and the hardware interface with all the knobs, sliders and buttons made it quite intuitive to get your own sounds out of it without a lot of menu diving. Something far more important than expecting true analog out of a VA/digital synth. I wish I could get ahold of one now. I'm sure I'd make use of it.

So there aren't or are programmable zones?
