Behringer UB-Xa - Polyphonic Aftertouch Sound Demo

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 6 чер 2022
  • This little piece of music showcases the superb keybed of the UB-Xa. It provides velocity sensivity and polyphonic aftertouch enabling you to play your music with extraordinary expressivity. In this split performance filter frequency, volume, LFO speed and intensity of the upper preset (in unison mode employing only one voice) is controlled by poly aftertouch. Moreover volume, VCF and VCA attack is also controlled by velocity.
    The lower pad sound uses OB-8 “second page” functions such as LFO rate delay here controlling panorama position. Furthermore LFO rate is influenced by poly aftertouch as well.
    This music genre beggs for delay and reverb. I´ve used two Lexicon PCM 70 connected to my main mixing desk as send effects . Everything is played life and recorded in one take without any edits or further audio processing.
    Enjoy the music!

    Nice demo 👍. I'm one of those who don't give a crap about how close it comes to an original as long as it sounds great. It's definitely a candidate for my specific needs.

      Which is understandable given that everything he did for Blade Runner (and everything else he did at that time) owed a hell of a lot to the poly-aftertouch on the CS-80. Even though it is a completely digital synth, I sometimes scare myself at how close I can get to "that Vangelis sound" just because of the Iridium's polyphonic aftertouch.

The tone is so beautiful, and the melodies you come up with are exactly what I aspire to play.

    It's nice to see more polyphonic aftertouch keyboards come out, especially if it means that older synths with it will become cheaper as the polyphonic aftertouch capabilities won't be as big of a purchasing decision and they can be brought on sound alone.
    Personally I love the polyphonic aftertouch on my GEM S2, it's implemented so well and even better it's added to one of Fatar's best ever weighted keybeds, no rubber dome contacts here, metal springs and two bus bars they move between!

    Having owned an Ensoniq SQ-80 (actually 2 now!) for 20+ years, I am glad to see PolyAT keyboards making it back into the mainstream.
    In fact I'm hopeful Behringer will make an SQ-80 alike (rather than ESQ-1).. but what about an equally expressive feature, Release Velocity ? Another Ensoniq, the Mirage sampler, had that..

    • @philippedubern4650
      @philippedubern4650 2 роки тому +5

      I remember. There was stunning choral voices among the Mirage disks presets and the release velocity change them in a very expressive way, you felt you were controlling a sort of variable reverberation time on it, great playing feeling

    • @GlenBerry
      @GlenBerry 2 роки тому +3

      My Kawai K4 has release velocity. I was saddened, when I realized most synth keyboards (even synths that cost far more than my Kawai K4) don't have the feature.
      In my opinion, all "flagship" keyboard synths (or MIDI controllers) should have polyphonic aftertouch, channel aftertouch, attack velocity sensitivity, and release velocity sensitivity. Sadly, at least one or two of those are usually left out. My Kawai K4 is nowhere near "flagship" level, but at least it does have release velocity. If the K4 can have it, there's no good reason why more expensive synths can't have it also!
