well, my original attempt at remaking it goes back to the mid 1990s. I actually used my Yamaha TX816 and a Roland MKS-70. So I already knew what all the sounds were. But it took me a long time to learn all the other tricks. About a year ago, I took another crack at it, using all the modern gimmicks. And then you reminded me about it and so I decided to post it. I just had to change a thing or two and introduce some extra effects and things that I didn't have in the project. But cool, cool suggestion :-) ~Hedge
Hey look, it's Joe Pesci! Good to have you back, man, and I thoroughly enjoyed the layering. And here I thought the final sound at 5:00 was some fat lady walking on the floor above you.
My DX was about 6 feet away from me when I made this. But I do have all of the sounds on it. It’s basically factory stuff for the TX816: the brass performance, the choir, and the organ presets. During the song, they also use the bell and one of the whistle presets. I should break out the DX when I do the full-length partial reconstruction video. No idea when I’ll have time to do that, but I will. I already have the full mix anyway. :p
many many years ago, before software synthesizers I re-created this using my DX, TX 816, and an MKS 70. So I already know what all the sounds are. There were some mixing tricks I had to learn. Running stuff through bass amps and stuff like that. so the latest version has everything I learned since :-) what would really help the lead sound is some old, grainy, digital reverb. I'm pretty sure they had a Yamaha SBX on the returns for that. But I'll have to double check.
Nice. What is the best way to get the "Brass Stabs" patch from the JX-8P on any modern synth? Since that is the foundation of the lead that Mic Michaeli used for the original.
well, all the DX stuff is easy. It's just TX816 presets. Factory stuff. However, the JX sound is a sample of my MKS 70. And it's a big sample. And all the pad sounds are too. Unless you find a way to rebuild them there's really no way to complete the picture. not unless I reprogram them for some other synthesizer. and you have to understand that there's a lot of additional processing too. So now you've given me quite a challenge. :-) ~Hedge
what would really nail it 100% is the SPX 90 on the aux returns. You have to have a really grainy digital reverb behind it. Mines too clean. But maybe I'll dig up something similar. I remember getting pretty good results. Using my Boss SE-70 and other fx. ~Hedge
Beautiful view and great video! I have a question about the “what time is love riff”. Do you need an OB-8 or Oberheim emulation to replicate that? Or can it be done on any synth?
not in the US. In Panama, Pacific Coast. Although most of my neighbors are from the US and Canada. But I love it here just for the weather. Same weather all year-round. Nice, warm ocean. As much as I love SoCal, the water was just too cold for me.
@@Hedge777 Yeah, amazing, if it were me I'd be wondering which synth to have at the window next? Did you ever do a cover of the "Miami Vice" opening theme, that'd be pretty cool;-)
Yes, Miami Vice Opening Theme here: ua-cam.com/video/YZ91cUM6PZo/v-deo.html And: Crockett's Theme ua-cam.com/video/zBMRiAxFX_4/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB Second is a more elaborate video using drones and so on. ~Hedge
Just Superb!!!!. My best regards!. 🤩😍❤
wonderful view, I'd love to have a music studio overlooking the ocean
Wow. I just love the chords, melody and sounddesign. It's sounds epic yet cheesy at the same time. Goosebumps!
Great vid! Question Where are you located? Looks like a beautiful place.
Panama
This should get more views! Absolutely gorgeous sounds❤, i love all of that. Thanks for sharing this. Keep it up! 💪
Thank you so much!
Nice one Surprise Morrocan Dress Big Up ✌🏾🇲🇦
Excellent as ever, Hedge. Many thanks from the visually impaired(as well as one who enjoys this song).
Dude I've been following you for years. There's no one that get's the sounds as close as you do. You're truely a wizard. Cheers :)
thanks, appreciate the kind words and will continue my wizardry! :)
Thanks for doing this in such a short time, you really know your stuff. Learning a lot from your channel ❤ also your playing is awesone

Omg this is sooo accurate. Love hearing all the sounds separatly. Would love to know on which you used the dx7

@@Hedge777 that's awesome man. Can't wait! Sorry I saw dexed in the comment and immediatly thought dx7 hehe

PG-8X Pretty much nailed it for me.

When you announced this song, I knew you will have the most exact solo sound on youtube 😊

I have a question about the “what time is love riff”. Do you need an OB-8 or Oberheim emulation to replicate that? Or can it be done on any synth?
To add, are there any software synths that can replicate the riff?
I remember giving you the patches for that. Maybe email me so we can keep track of these conversations.
@@Hedge777 You gracious did, and I didn’t download them. What is your email?
@@Hedge777 Sent.
I already replied bro. Check your inbox :-)
What's the monthly rent on an apartment there? I'd move in a heartbeat 😊
anywhere from $1000-$1200. Depends on the place. three times less than what I'd be paying in Florida for a similar setup :-)
@@Hedge777 That's reasonable, I take it you're in LA/Malibu roughly?
