That’s phenomenal Yabby. I want one!!
I watched all three Jordan Rudess segments and the Pink Floyd one. Yeah I reckon I could easily become addicted to that. So how into it are you? Do you sing as well? Have you recorded anything? Put up any youtubes? How much is an instrument like this? Or the cheaper Kronos? Posted by Ludwig, Saturday, 17 March 2012 8:12:11 PM

I feel like an outsider here among this clique of old friends, but I like your taste in music Ludwig and have to confess a love of Hollywood musicals myself, or anything by Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra, or even Fred Astaire. That's my idea of escapism and I love the old cornball classics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1ZYhVpdXbQ
Even us die-hard Marxists need some romance. Posted by Squeers, Saturday, 17 March 2012 8:26:22 PM

Oh I am very addicted, Ludwig. Nope I can't sing, I'd crack the
windows :) The Oasys has its own cd player recorder, as well as the hard disk where you can store recorded stuff. It comes with a huge amount of sounds, anything you can imagine. Plus you can sample. Like all your birds tweeting, then play them on the keyboard and mix them in with a guitar sound or any other sound. The original 76 key Oasys cost around 9k at the time. Korg decided to build something to a quality standard, using only the best materials etc. But most musicians are broke, they all want one but few could afford one, so Korg lost money on them and they did not sell many. They are still around second hand but rare as hens teeth. The Kronos costs half that. Same software, combis, programmes etc, but its built to a price. AFAIK they are selling heaps. But if you love being creative with music and want to use every sound on earth, they are the way to go. See it this way. If you were paying for an illegitimate child, it would cost you more in 12 months Posted by Yabby, Saturday, 17 March 2012 8:35:04 PM

I’m singing in the rain, just singing in the rain, what a glorious feeling I’m happy again…
Oh sorry. Can’t get that out of my head now. Thanks Squeers. What an old classic that is. Yep I’m right into all that old stuff. Love Fred, Frankie and Deano. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQR0bXO_yI8&feature=related Posted by Ludwig, Saturday, 17 March 2012 9:12:30 PM

I’m going to have to really explore that Yabby, when I get home. I’ve been drifting around like a hobo for three months now all over southeastern Australia. Back to the sedentary life soon.
Here’s another pretty impressive instrument: http://youtu.be/hQ8j6E3Ul5s Posted by Ludwig, Saturday, 17 March 2012 9:38:47 PM

his Pink Floyd. Just amazing, the sound quality and right up my
alley.

But alot of the people who have them, use them for film music,
writing jingles for Tv or as part of the band, like Genesis.
