The glide on the Moog part wasn't done by the modern/conventional "mod wheel" -- it was actually a broken fault on the Moog IIIP that George owned. According to their tech, Ed Veale, the fault was that a few keys had lost their sustain and when your released a key, it would (instead of sustaining) glide down to the lowest note on the register. So, while you can certainly recreate this with a pitch wheel, it's not ever going to be as exact as the faulty Moog key fall.
Wow. I never would have guessed that. Think of how differently Here Comes the Sun would have sounded if George's Moog IIIP had been in full working order. It could have changed music history as we know it forever!
I've thought the same thing since I was 10 years old and first heard this song in 1969. That moment in the song is one of the most hopeful-sounding arrangements I've ever heard in a song
I agree, I've heard this song hundreds, if not thousands of times but it's only now I've learnt to listen and appreciate it. The Moog really stands out to me now and it really is beautiful.
Hey, I'd love to know how you got that sound on your Microkorg. I just picked one up based on your video and from what I see on screen I have the same settings you do but my sound is completely different. Any help would be appreciated!
Hey Kyle! This was so long ago I dont remember exactly what we did. I know we used the Microkorg on everything. The settings should be correct, although I wouldnt be surprised if we did some stuff off screen and recreated it visually for the video. I remember editing the fall because it did not sound right, landing on notes rather than gliding down an octave. We would have also messed with the 5 perimeters up top and post production in Logic. Maybe some stacking of sounds. I hope thats a good start. We have tried to use the microkorg in a live setting before and its very tricky. The sounds keep evolving which requires you to switch settings every section
@@AblyHouse Hey, thanks for the info I appreciate it. I know the sound on the initial setting isn't correct so I'll play around and see what shakes out. Thank you again!
Anyone can tell me if/how to recreate it on a Roland Juno DI this smoothly? (I have the sound editor, but I lack knowledge to use anything beyond the most basic features - I tried extending the pitch wheel range, but I'm unable to get it smoothly glide down and fade out using the physical control on the board, which is quite small )
The original slide was caused by a faulty key, so it'd be hard to emulate. You could put something like a DigiTech whammy pedal between the synth and the input and use that but otherwise I'd have no idea
This is really excellent. I am recording my own cover which, like this one, pretty much follows the standard of the original, with one or two minor changes because I prefer it to the original. Yours is excellent. The only criticism I would have is that you don't use any pedalling for the string part, and as a result, the string lines do not flow like on the original. I'm sure that is not your intention. Otherwise first class. x
@@JugaJuga14 I don't think by technical definition a Mellotron is a synthesizer. But yeah, it's 100% the instrument used here. There's nothing being 'synthesized' per se, it's simply reproducing the original signal from an analog recording.
Just the moog alone makes this one of the best songs ever.
TheSniperMAJOR would it be as amazing if a song without the moog?
Will Fudge it depends mate
Definitely, the moog just make it even better.
YES!!!!!
But they didn't stop at it and made it better with the most heart warming acoustic guitar riff of all time

Didnt know that! Thanks
It would be interesting if You Can't Unhear This did a video on that!
The microKORG doesn't have key-off envelope parameters, but on some synths you could emulate the pitch drop
2:12 my fav part of the entire song it’s so beautiful and relaxing

So hopeful.
i know!! I love that part

Absolutely. This part brings me to tears.
La incorporacion del moog es de lo mas emotivo, embellece la cancion de tal manera que se convierte en una cancion lleno de esperanza.
George played moog on his own song, AND you can notice all The feeling AND tallend he had, so beautifull arrengled. Genius.
Beautiful.
How did you set that sounds?
Please ! How did you achieve that tone off Micro Korg please impart wisdom.
2:13
BEAUTIFUL
Thank you very much! I learned some part of the moogs.
Muy buen trabajo!!! Felicidades!! Saludos desde Ciudad México!! 👍

hola tienes alguna pagina de donde saques las tablaturas y acordes?

Hey! Amazing your work! Could you upload the isolated drum track of Rain please?! Would be amazing!
Trying to learn this on a normal keyboard on a jazz guitar setting... sounds fine...
Great job!!! How did you recreate the moog sound in the microkorg? Thanks
Love that song.
does anyone have any idea on how to recreate this sort of sound?
Do you think you could make a slowed down tutorial of this? It’s hard to see what your hands are doing
UA-cam has a function where you can set the speed. Try the settings while watching :)
Does anyone have the chords for the string part?
What synth are you using???? Thanks
Looks like a microkorg

Eargasm
Could you name all the names of the effects you used?
Creo que debes reducir el parámetro del ataque del primer sonido. Saludos.
Its a modular Moog but the strings are real. No synth strings in 1969.
Obviously, but do you have an orchestra
@D J A 3 3 9 I think not
Incorrect. A Mellotron was a synthesising keyboard instrument that used tape loops of recorded instruments. Technically one of the first synthesisers.

@@JugaJuga14ig its kinda like a sampler
Peace.

Great job! What is the model of the Korg?
It's a Micro Korg. Search that and you'll find it!
that is cool yo, thnx, think a mininova do it better?:)
2:01
Bluey hearing this isolated
Bluey: * tearing up* ITS BEAUTIFUL
Good job person. This sounds great!
that's definitely not a MOOG!
Do you have a Moog?
@@jaydenwhitlen1489 lol, does anyone? Only the lucky ones, I guess.
nonedescriptivepresence. Yep
このシンセサイザーの名前分かる方、教えてください。
Micro korg

Ably house. That's not even a moog!! That's a korg you!!!
