What Are You Doing With Your Yamahas? (1st)
开云体育I've been quietly reading the posts from all you geniuses concerning your various Yahamas. Modifying them, upgrading them, repairing them, discovering new tricks with them, etc.? It gradually made me wonder: Once you get your Yahamas fixed and working again, what are you actually doing with them? Besides playing them at your local gigs at taverns, bars, clubs, whenever you can find a place to play (hopefully for pay). Are any of you doing any recording? Original songs or or instrumental tunes. Cover versions of your favorite songs? Other audio experiments with them? If so, mightn’t it be fun for you guys to post (at least some of) your recorded work in audio form here on this site, so the rest of us can hear your talent? Just an idea I thot I'd float to see if any of you were interested, and if it was even technically feasible to do on this site. ? ? What are your thots on this idea? Catch ya later. ?Bye for now.

In response to your question, I've been using mine as a straight-up controller and sound source in my home studio. I've been trying to get it to work with the MidiQuest software, but I haven't been able to get that to work at all. I was hoping to use it as a demonstration "playground" to teach my son about FM synthesis, but without the visual representations of the patches I was hoping the editor would provide, I'm not likely to be able to do that. I'm also hoping to take all my old sequence data--which I've still got on the floppies all these years later--and dump it into Cubase somehow. If I can do that, I can probably resurrect all the arrangements I created for my band years ago and perhaps pick up some 80s gigging work on the side, though I'm not so sure that's even an option anymore. We'll see. This much is certain: I'm having a ball with my Yamaha DX7II-FD after getting it working again. Una salus victus nullam sperare salutem. http://phileosophos.com
