Love Beach is "amazing?" :confused: Why? I'm a Tarkus/Triology man myself. Carl

Can you clear up what you mean when you say "the sounds [sic] are clearly MIDI?" MIDI dosen't sound like anything, it isn't audio. Carl

I say try again on the vocals. I really liked it, but Progressive rock is specifically my cup of meat. If you want to make music that is well liked by the most people possible, I say run don't walk away from this style of music. However, if I may, if you want to hook a loyal following that...

If you asked me, the guy that mispelled "heds" is doing it on purpose. Just about every word that can be mispelled and still be understood is mispelled in that auction. Also, the mispelling is consistant. The guy is pulling everyone's leg with the poor spelling. Seemed pretty obvious to me. Carl

How serious about this are you? If you want to become accomplished, I'd recommend that you stay away from PSRs. In fact, all of your requirements will hurt you in the end if you want to develope any real technique and serious ability. 76 keys is an absolute minimum if you want to play piano...

The cold hard fact of it is that Rhodes emulations miss the mark by a pretty wide margin. Get a real Rhodes. If you live anywhere near me, I'm selling mine. Carl

It's possible that the theme used a Yamaha CP-30. I haven't heard the tune since I stopped watching it on Nick At Nite in the 90's. Carl

I'm pretty sure that it's a Rhodes. You could download Mr. Ray (on a trial basis) and purchase if you like it. Carl

My understanding (although I have no personal experience) is that this: <click me> is a fine weighted 88 key MIDI controller. You might want to look into this one. Carl

The m-audio 88 dosen't have a decent action. Cheaper midi controllers are just as bad or worse. What you want to get is a digital piano. Don't even worry about the internal sounds because you're going to control your soft synth or module with it anyway. Plenty of used and even new digital...

Found that Rhodes emulator that I was talking about. Here it is: <click me> It's called Mr. Ray. Carl

I'm selling my Rhodes because of all the above mentioned reasons except for "fragility". A Rhodes is a tank. As far as emulation goes, you'd probably be best served using a soft synth modeler or a rack mounted module and buying a weighted 88 controller to go with. Proteus has a couple of...

My understanding is that they both use the exact same synth engine. Carl

You could get a soft synth for free. There are a few out there. If you need a hardware module, you could get something like an old Proteus on eBay for around $50. Any 16 bit GM should be under $50. Carl

Nothing anymore. You're so all fired up to dispense advice that you don't recognize it coming from the other direction. Enjoy your stay with us here, at the rate you're going it won't last long. Carl

Well, that attitude is going to get you far. :rolleyes: Keep chugging along down that track, don't let me put the brakes on your express train to Pariah Town. Have a good one. :D Carl

Even if this post weren't condescending (and it is) it doesn't belong in the MIDI forum. You should have posted it in the keyboards one. That aside, the proper etiquette around here is to wait to be asked for help and not take it for granted that you can fill the role of Guru. Especially...

Do you really think that his hammering technique could lead to hand problems? Carl

So? Like I said, buy another one, they're cheap and useful and you could always use another. Shit, now that I know the whole story, your friends are right and you are a whiner. Carl

Your friends don't understand why losing $87 worth of microphone is pissing you off? Well, it sucks to lose a mic. I recommend going out and buying another SM57. Even if your old one turns up, it never hurts to have two SM57s. Carl
