  • My instrumental cover of the beautiful ABBA song "I have a dream" (1979).
    It required a lot of work.
    First of all, I downloaded a very beautiful song style from the styleplayer.io web site and then I customized it as follows:
    - I replaced some style channels with UpTempo8Beat factory style Phrase 1 and Chord 1 (guitar channels);
    - I completely replaced the "Fill In C" style, overwriting all its channels with the corresponding "Break" section channels. In this way I could obtain a 2/4 break, as described below.
    Moreover, I decided to use Chord looper in some instrumental parts, in order to easily accomodate transitions between a voice melodic line and the following instrumental one.
    Note that the song time signature is 4/4, but it contains several 2/4 bars and so I simply tried to turn on the "Half Bar Fill In" option. However, in this way I experienced a serious Chord looper problem: at each "Half Bar Fill in" it returned to the first chord.
    So, to find a workaround, I tried to use the Time Editor utility by Jørgen Sørensen to transform the 4/4 "Fill In C" and "Fill In D" style sections into 2/4 bars (Yamaha arranger support a unique time signature for all the sections in a style; so Time Editor does the trick doubling tempo from 105 bpm to 210 bpm only for some chosen sections and writing sections "tempos" into CASM data).
    In this way Chord looper worked perfectly!
    At this point, I could focus on sounds: I created a registration bank for Genos and a set list for Korg Nautilus, containing several combinations that use both Korg internal programs and Dexibell VIVO SX8 tones recalled via MIDI.
    Note that some registration memory switches on the Genos keyboard automatically change the current set list slot on Nautilus: this is possible thanks to my Java utility MIDITranslator, which converts Yamaha system exclusive messages, generated by Genos on registration memory switches, into Program Change messages, required to change the active set list slot on Nautilus.
    Finally, I hope you will enjoy my "hard" ;-) work and subscribe to my channel, using the following link:
