Sorry to hear about your friend Quincy Jones. He will be missed and I am thankful for all the great music he was part of and responsible for. A true legend in the sense of the word.
I have the original Pro Tools session for this song somewhere. I will have to dig it up and solo those tracks. If I can still open sessions that old. I think this was when we were still using OS 9 and SDII audio files. In the final mix only a kick and snare were used for drums, but there's a lot more drum tracks in it that just went unused (which was a great production decision).
Wow I need to see the synthesizer track that was an epic track I meet 3k at a synthesizer mini con in La he is so chill and we lived like blocks away from each other in south pass
I appreciate that you're from the old school of music, but not in the stereotypical "man yells at clouds" way. The variety of songs you've done videos on is refreshing.
As with everyone else I just wanted to say to you, a person who actually knew him, that my heart goes out to all the friends and family of the incomparable Quincy Jones. I wouldn't be me without his endless contributions to the world. We are so happy that those talented people he helped give a voice like yourself are here. The legacy lives on through you and countless others. Thank you Quincy and thank YOU.
I might not be the only on but the collaboration between Quincy Jones and you (among others of course) has TO THIS DAY a powerful influence on a lot of us. Thank you all, RIP Quincy and keep on keepin’ on! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
One of the best songs out there. Wonderful that a song with some different rhythms and time signatures would be such a hit. Thanks Anthony for briging us a little of the inner workings of genius. . Also, the passing of Quincy is a sad event. Such a marvelous talent who brought us the sound of the 80's. RIP!
You read my mind! My wife's been playing that on repeat a lot this week. My thoughts after the 17th time were "I wonder what synths Outkast used here?"
It blows my mind how important your contribution to music is. Thank you for these nice videos walking through you’re process and analysis. Best vibe of any synth channel. There I said it.
I know this is a synth channel but something I’ve always been fascinated by and that no one ever talks about the lack of hi hats in this song. There’s an acoustic guitar that kind of fills that time keeping role and I’ve always found this so interesting and curious.
Love that song it was very popular in 2004 when I met my husband wonderful song thank you for playing and sharing this lovely happy song. I’m sorry about Quincy your friend. And I wish you a good week. God bless.❤
Anthony, please keep this up! I see you are slowly starting to generate the buzz and following you deserve. Incredible insights! PS Did you know you and your videos were mentioned on the ‘One Song’ podcast about ‘Thriller’?
Another excellent tutorial, Anthony. I am reminded of how much the tuba is utilized in a Mexican musical style known as banda, a kind of Polka/Oompah hybrid popularized by Mexican groups that adopted it from European immigrants that is so popular among the L.A. immigrant population we live among. The melody sound reminds me of what Vangelis utilized for the melody in "Alpha", for Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" series. As far as Mr Jones goes, just heard about it from the comments here. What a tremendous loss. We have the "We Are the World" on VHS, and have admired all of the projects, musicians and artists he was involved with from Leslie Gore to the present, as well as his own projects, from the more popular songs "Soul Bossa Nova", "The Secret Garden", and "Tomorrow(A Better You, Better Me)". To quote a Pink Floyd song title, he has now joined many former colleagues for a "Great Gig in the Sky".
been working with vsts for years using presets ... a couple of your tutorial videos and i actually know how to make my own sounds now, pretty wild ... THANK YOU
I love watching your sound-break down videos. I learn something every time. Here is an idea for a "throw back" sound: the lead synth from the Rockford Files TV theme. It's a classic synth sound, but I still haven't been able to "nail" it yet and could use your expertise. Thanks again.
Thanks for pointing out the details one would never know without getting hands on with certain instruments. I would have never thought about the physics and timing that goes into moving the amount of air needed for tuba sounds.
it’s a great synth. super basic, in terms of functionality, but the few controls it has have a wide range and it really has a rich, musical sound to it regardless of where the controls are set. it is a special machine.
Hi Anthony, in the baby be mine intro there is a certain lead sound. Kind of like an organ. Do you know anything about it? I think it's just some preset sound of some synth. I love you channel by the way.
hey Anthony i love you channel just got into synths this year and would love if you made a video showing how to make good mike dean synth sounds with a cheap synth like the korg volca keys
One of my college classmates said that some guy named Josh Butler did the programming for Hey Ya, and he considered it garbage. He attempted to build him up saying that he was doing a good job, but to this day, I think he may have been lying a hair.
It's pretty possible that the sound was coming from that Casio SA-65 in the video. There is a preset that could it be, but on the other hand: The SA-65 has no headphone jack or line out whatsoever.....maybe it was just a prop for the video
RIP QUINCY. Have you ever heard of the band king gizzard and the lizard wizard ? They have an album called butterfly 3000 that is all made up of modular synths and using poly rhythms. I think you would really find them interesting! Bonus there on tour on the West Coast right now
Even though you can’t always believe what you see, I’m not terribly surprised to be informed that the accompaniment for this song was done using only one synthesizer. Even though the guy mining the keyboard part in the music video is seen with two different Rhodes piano models and a MIDI controller, a trace of realism is retroactively added to that staging.
I was trying to replicate the lead part on my Deepmind and I'm noticing that maybe a little sustain is needed in the envelope. What do you think? P.S. thank you for all you do!
@8:14 where you are recreating the short melody hook line, in the actual promo video the character "Benjamin Andre" is "playing" the part on a Casio SA-67! Of course, what appears in a video doesn't mean that is what was played on the actual recording. BUT, it does sound very much like a flute preset as found in many small Casios. And it wouldn't be the first time a Casio was used to play a lead melody in a hit song, as heard in the Human League's "Open Your Heart"! You've already shown us that the Thriller "Frog" bass sound came from a Casiotone home keyboard (on top of an ARP 2600) , and it would so cool if Outkast did actually play that melody in Hey Ya on a little Casio as well! And of course, RIP Quincy Jones. What a great loss to the music world 😢
Sorry to hear about your friend Quincy Jones. He will be missed and I am thankful for all the great music he was part of and responsible for. A true legend in the sense of the word.
Thank you, so true!
@@anthonymarinellimusicat the very least we have the music and the memories, they will never leave us❤
You took the words out my my mouth…. Sorry to hear about that Anthony, he was a legend!

I think this was when we were still using OS 9 and SDII audio files. In the final mix only a kick and snare were used for drums, but there's a lot more drum tracks in it that just went unused (which was a great production decision).
If you are willing I can trade you some rare rap sessions for that hey ya session. Unless you don’t trade or sell then my bad.
I would love those!
Dig it up and solo _everything_
Wow I need to see the synthesizer track that was an epic track I meet 3k at a synthesizer mini con in La he is so chill and we lived like blocks away from each other in south pass
The acoustic guitar almost acts like a shaker. It’s brilliant
I appreciate that you're from the old school of music, but not in the stereotypical "man yells at clouds" way. The variety of songs you've done videos on is refreshing.
Thank you, there’s one school of relevant!
You are keeping Quincys spirit alive. Let's celebrate a Titan in music.
Acoustic guitar blends perfectly with these patches
As with everyone else I just wanted to say to you, a person who actually knew him, that my heart goes out to all the friends and family of the incomparable Quincy Jones.

one of the best, most clever songs of all time. outkast was one of the best bands to ever exist
Great tutorial, as usual, Anthony!
RIP Quincy. One of those stand-out men who lived a very full life and a long one at that. Sorry for your loss.
RIP Quincy, true legend
I'd love a Juno one day, things like this prove that you can get nearly anything you want done with a Juno.
So cool! I never thought that someone would ever make a synth tutorial for this brilliant song in such detail, thank you very much!
Long live the goat Quincy Jones 😢
Quincy's music lives on.!
RIP Quincy Jones!🙏🙏🙏

childlike wonder
made me smile

You are soo funky Anthony! Just like Andre & Quincy ofcourse;) I thank you all for your true & deep funkyness 🙏
Ha, ha, nice, stay funky!
Im really glad to see more hip hop videos on your channel to keep in touch with many genres. As always, great video
I actually had been listening to Hey Ya for the past month or so wondering about those synths! As always, thank you, Anthony!
Love that song it was very popular in 2004 when I met my husband wonderful song thank you for playing and sharing this lovely happy song. I’m sorry about Quincy your friend. And I wish you a good week. God bless.❤
Makes me feel like doing this on my PolyBrute. Would be a fun sequence to make.
Clever record. Clever synth programming. Less is more.
What a song!
Your explanation of the thought process is so good for someone trying to learn. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for breaking down my favorite song of all time.
Track just slays. Thank you for celebrating it with your passion and expertise.
Insanely helpful in learning how to approach making particular sounds. Thank you.
MARINELLI 3000 🛸 OUT THE BASEMENT
Thank you so much for breaking this down! I love that record and that album! Andre made a masterpiece
Another great video. May Quincy RIP.
What a great track this is! Lovely
That pluck!!! 🔥🔥
You give me the same vibes as bob ross with painting.
Great insights into sound design -- thank you!
Anthony, please keep this up! I see you are slowly starting to generate the buzz and following you deserve. Incredible insights!

When I heard the news about Quincy I instantly thought about you. An absolute legend of music, he'll be sadly missed.
Love to see Anthony on a Juno 60!!
Andre’s Lawn Jockey costume in the video is hysterical.
I love this channel so much
thank you for sharing, you could easily be selfish and hide this knowledge, but you chose to be happy, thank you!
Sorry for your loss mr marinelli
Brilliant video!❤
been working with vsts for years using presets ... a couple of your tutorial videos and i actually know how to make my own sounds now, pretty wild ... THANK YOU
Awesome !
One of the biggest music icons in modern popular music, will really live on forever.
I think Roland's AIRA J-6 deserves more love. 😉
I think it could also have been made with the roland sh2000! the pingpong preset and the tuba with some after touch can get you there
This video reminds me that my Juno-60 needs some major servicing.
These videos are very informative thank you!
Juno 60. Then you got the synthriff of Take on me from 85. Great video by the way. You know your trade.
As always, fascinating and educational
Wow I never thought about playing certain sounds a little early.
You finally get a Juno 60 into the studio? Awesome video!
I love watching your sound-break down videos. I learn something every time. Here is an idea for a "throw back" sound: the lead synth from the Rockford Files TV theme. It's a classic synth sound, but I still haven't been able to "nail" it yet and could use your expertise. Thanks again.
Bombastic!
Great video as always 🔥
If I recall correctly, he used the devices in Reason on many of the tracks for that album.
Very helpful.
Jam In Peace Quincy🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Really good break down, TY.
I would love to see some breakdown on anything Pharrell and/or N.E.R.D 🙏🏼
Great Stuff as always
Great video 👍
Thanks for pointing out the details one would never know without getting hands on with certain instruments.
I would have never thought about the physics and timing that goes into moving the amount of air needed for tuba sounds.
Each new tutorial is an opportunity for me to learn new ways of creating music.
i remember Outkast
For me the main melodie sounds like the Popcorn Preset on the Roland SH-2000! ✌🏻 + ❤
I always heard the bass as being an FM synth because of the modulated grittiness of the timbre.
sussudio phil collins sounds please ! the warbly chord stacks sound jelly
The Juno 60 has a really sound too it. Not a synth I have ever given much thought too but now I'm thinking I would like to see more of it.
it’s a great synth. super basic, in terms of functionality, but the few controls it has have a wide range and it really has a rich, musical sound to it regardless of where the controls are set. it is a special machine.
great content as always. rip q!
🔥🔥🔥
the lead synth is "A Square In Space" preset in Native Instruments!
Hi Anthony, in the baby be mine intro there is a certain lead sound. Kind of like an organ. Do you know anything about it? I think it's just some preset sound of some synth. I love you channel by the way.

I heard it was actually done on a yamaha SY-77 with a flute patch..:):)
Lol much love Anthony!
Awesome. What reverb are you using on the marimba synth sound?
I want him to play the Peppa pig theme song on the bass patch so bad 😂
It's pretty possible that the sound was coming from that Casio SA-65 in the video. There is a preset that could it be, but on the other hand: The SA-65 has no headphone jack or line out whatsoever.....maybe it was just a prop for the video
Tough 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🫡

🎶Synthesizer microwave me! 🎶
I am waiting for. Album thriller nr 2. Together with Dr mix and friensds
RIP Quincy Jones
I was trying to replicate the lead part on my Deepmind and I'm noticing that maybe a little sustain is needed in the envelope. What do you think?
P.S. thank you for all you do!
I can't believe that I used to have a Juno 60.
Do you know what moog was used for the synth bass on the Threatened interlude From Michael's this is it. Was it minimoog or was it the voyager?

hi Anthony, what's the reverb on that juno?
... there is a 3rd chorus on the Juno-60! :-)
Did they use a Juno, thanks 🤖
I don’t know but you can nail the sounds with a Juno
@@anthonymarinellimusic ok thanks, was thinking they maybe used some mad lo tech obscure vintage stuff
Please do P-Funk Allstars " Hydraulic Pump " ✌️ ✌️ ☮️
😃
Play the bass part
[INSIDE STORY] Someone bet André he couldn't write a song for white people ... "Hey Ya" was created ... and ... well ... you know the rest.
