I'm being asked a question by someone over the internet, and do not know the specific answer. I am not sure what kind of Apple or MAC he has, but he does have Garage Band on his computer, and also USB port. He wants to use it to play a MIDI file, and drive his MicroKorg. Can a USB/MIDI...

I just got done listening to these 2 bassists and a drummer doing a clinic for Phil Jones Bass amps. I'm fairly impressed, to say the least. 'Thought you guys might enjoy this. http://www.philjonesbass.com/endorsers.htm Click on the "Sandberg Clinic Tour" button Oh, if you listen with...

Question: I'm sequencing in the Kurzweil K2500XS, but I'm not sure that my question bars answers from other machines, so have at it, please! MIDI 123 is the ALL NOTES OFF command sent on all MIDI channels. I'm wondering if placing a Controller MIDI 123 command at the very beginning of all...

If a sound you are using has metallic overtones, or ringing, or tinniness sound to it, what things do you do to remove that sound? Would love to hear what you guys have tried and worked. Everything from how to change the synthesis properties, to EQ, to FX usage. What are the harmonic...

Delete. I found my answer.

I've been composing and playing difficult and progressive music for years, but do not know if I am playing the basic 12-bar blues crawl at the last measure, correctly. Sweet Home Chicago, in the key of "E". Chords go in this order: E - A - E - B - A - E - then the bass does a crawl down to...

I used to know the answer to this question, but have since forgot. When buying, for example, an APC battery backup rated at 1500VA, I know that the higher the number it has, the more power it supplies to equipment. But, there is some math involved when plugging your important equipment into...

I have no knowledge at all regarding the headset microphones that are now available. I looked on Sweetwater's site, and there must be hundreds of these available from different companies. I don't need a wireless. I'm a keybaordist who will stay behind his instrument the whole night. So not...

Argh. I need accurate advice. 12 hours ago, right in them middle of transferring a MIDI file from a floppy disk to my K2500XS into the P-RAM, and during the rain storm that hit St. Louis from the hurricane Ike residual, my Kurzweil rebooted itself in the middle of the file transer, and...

Well, I just feel like posting, and I could not find a forum for General Music talk, so I guess the Keyboard section will have to do. Dragon, maybe a new forum ??? So I'm presently learning "Bloody Well Right" by Supertramp. I'm excited about this song. Sounds good, too, using my Rhodes...

I have a Kurzweil K2500XS synth, which has a FATAR keyboard in it. After speaking to a Kurzweil tech support guy yesterday, he tells me most of the keyboard manufacturers (Korg, Roland, Yamaha) buy their keyboards from FATAR (Italy). I have taken apart my whole synth, taken out the keyboard...

Gotta a problem. Small issue, but I don't know if what I need is doable. I have 2 keyboards talking to each other via MIDI. One a Kurzweil K2500 and the other a Novation Supernova II. I have the Novation acting like a master in this instance so that I can play organ sounds inside my...

Kurzweil Triple Modular Processing, or Triple Mode, made its debut in the K2600 in 2001. While the description is disarmingly simple, Triple Mode offers perhaps the deepest set of programming possibilities ever on any synth, at any price! In essence, each program can have up to three...

I am confused and not getting the results I desire. I'm trying to program my Setups to cooperate with the Songs I have created, to play live performances with background accompaniment. Can somebody please explain to me in which place to define the KDFX studio to be used? It seems like there are...

Before I turn my keyboards on and start playing around, I hope some one of you can give me a good idea on how to synthesize that screeching feedback sound electric guitarists are able to get. I wish to turn up my Mod Wheel to bring out that high-pitched feedback sound, on one of my lead synth...

To tell this story properly, I have to start with this preface: In 1978, at the age of 15, I bought my first 35mm camera, Canon AE-1, from a store in New York City, via magazine ad. It was much cheaper than the stores around St. Louis, MO. So, at a young age, I ventured into buying things from...

My original posting for HELP is in the Keyboard thread. I really would appreciate some brainy math help on the sound design project I wish to solve, using my Kurzweil Synth. https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=257543 Post in that thread, if you would, and not here. Thanks.

Posted twice by mistake.

Let's face it. We're the guys who take sound design to the nth level. I need your collaboration for a feat that is not faint-hearted, I think. For 25 years, I have imagined creating 3-D sound, in a way that has not been done, at least to my knowledge. Thank God I own a Kurzweil K-series that...

I think they can be summed up like this: If you own a laptop, go to Guitar Center with your laptop, pick out the interfaces with the features you need. Then try them out right there in front of the sales guy. If it works properly, give him the sale right then and there. If you own a...
