    I miss my old Clavinova Pf P100. That piano sound was amazing at the time!

      Yes, agree!
      80 euros for a great sounding "vintage" piece of gear 😊

    D*** good piano demo-shows depth of lower registers and articulations in the mid and upper, well done! hard to believe this module was this old, sounds pretty amazing even in 2022. I bought one after listening to your beautiful playing. What sound system did you put this through to record this demo on UA-cam? and what are using as a controller? I am using a TP40 Fatar action and a Korg RHII in another. Thanks.

      Ciao!
      Thanks for your comment...
      As you can understand from the video I'm not a pianist 🤣😁
      I just wanted to let everybody listen to the sound 😁
      Yes, this old module is still "sincere" in 2022. And its strength comes out in live concerts: it is always present with all other instruments!
      Here it was direct into pc soundboard.
      As controller I used a Studiologic SL 73 (just the TP 100 keybed, not efficacious as the TP40)

    Do you experience the same 'REVERB SEND' problem I do
    with my P50-m ? If I want some reverb applied to the active voice
    I have to crank the REVERB SEND setting to max (127)
    to hear some reveb effect.. I read the P50-m uses cheap BBD IC's
    for the inside reverb.. So I-it the same with you module ?
    Thanks for replying.

      ciao, thanks for comment.
      I never experienced this kind of problem, but I used it many years ago, during the 90's 🙂, so maybe I do not remember... (and recently - 4 years ago - I turned it on just for this video, using factory presets).
      sorry, I do not have it anymore, so I'm not able to make experiments...

    On that intro arpegio, the last two notes sound as flat as a pancake. I guess that's why we stretch tune real ones.

      I don't think the P50m could be considered a replacement for the acoustic instrument in classical solo applications - but that's not what it's designed for. There's nothing like the real thing, but unfortunately, a real piano isn't a practical option for most people, especially those working in a MIDI environment.

    • @marcoballa
      @marcoballa  5 місяців тому +1

      @Zampan0 yes, agree. Considering its age, it still make the job for a live pop/rock group.
      I remember using it more than 20 years ago and it worked great on stage 👍

    come ti sembra il wurly rispetto al vero che hai sotto? :)

    • @marcoballa
      @marcoballa  4 роки тому +1

      beh, inutile dire che i samples ridotti al minimo sono giusto un vago ricordo sia del suono che del feeling (rispetto agli originali)... vale per wurly, rhodes, clavinet e CP80 (che posso confrontare con gli originali).
      anche per gli acustici vale lo stesso discorso.
      ma...
      per motivi che ignoro, dal vivo questi suoni escono sempre in maniera assurda!!!!
