I just posted a new song using the PSR-E433 in the section for Music Played by Forum Members.  This is actually a multi-keyboard recording, using a Roland GAIA SH-01 synthesizer, the PSR-E433, a Casio CDP-200R digital piano, and an old Casio MT-68 hooked to bass pedals.  It is the Blade Runner opening theme.  I never saw the movie, but I love some of the music.  You can easily find the original on You Tube.

Since the GAIA SH-01 has three separate synthesizer engines, I was able to get a pretty complex sound for the main theme.  One engine is used for the main brass sound.  Another engine then fades in the randomizing sound you hear when a key is held down long enough.  And the third engine is used for the swooping wind/white noise sound that you hear in the background.  I use the PSR-E433 for all of the strings and choir that you hear on the track.

Here's the link to it...

It sounds like you're getting some very good use out if your new Gaia! I enjoyed that a lot! :)

Thanks!  Yeah, definitely adds a new dimension to my "live" playing.  Back when I had a home organ, with both the Wurlitzer and Yamaha models I had (the Yamaha was a D-80, and I think the Wurlitzer was called a 375, but not 100% sure on that), each of those organs had a 3rd mini solo keyboard in addition to the regular two keyboards most home organs have, which really helped to be able to bring in a different instrument without having to switch any buttons while playing.  The solo keyboard on the D-80 even had portamento.

When I sold the D-80 and went with a multi-keyboard set-up, starting with my main keyboard being a Yamaha DX-7, then through a PSR-500, PSR-510, PSR-520, and now, my PSR-E433, I usually only had two keyboards -- the main one and a back-up.  And I didn't really miss having the third keyboard too much, because unlike with the home organs, these newer keyboards all had programable presets of some kind, allowing quick and easy one-touch major changes to the sound.  And except for the DX-7, they all had split keyboards, which made it like having three keyboards, anyway.  But having that actual third keyboard, with its own set of capabilities and sounds which is not dependent on the settings of any of the other keyboards, opens up a whole new world of playing.

I did have a three keyboard set-up for a little while several years ago, with a 5-octave Casio CTK-691 on top.  I think this keyboard only cost me about $130 back in 2003 (though the music store was matching an internet price -- may have been about $200 before the price match), yet it had all kinds of features -- dozens of effects like phase shifter, reverb, and rotary speaker; organ drawbar mode (though totally menu driven -- no dedicated sliders), hundreds of built in sounds, multi-track recorder, synth-edits like filter controls, and a really good sound.  In fact, about the only thing that really kept me from making this a main keyboard was that there was no way to "freeze" the rhythm or style when switching registrations -- each registration had its own rhythm and tempo.  So, if I wanted to change registrations in the middle of a song, then I needed to use a different keyboard as the drum machine.  But anyway, when I stuck this keyboard on top of my set-up, I devised a kind of over-reaching bracket to hold sheet music, and it was just too high up to be comfortable.  Whenever I tried to learn a new song and had to use sheet music, it felt like I was looking toward the sky to read it!

So, with this new set-up, while it's not obviously visible in the photos, the GAIA is actually on a sliding tray, and there are bars at the base of the front of that keyboard that can fold up.  So, if I want to learn a new song that requires me to read music, instead of just learn by ear, then I can slide the GAIA back, fold up the arms, and then rest the sheet music essentially where I had it before I added the GAIA.  If the music is in a rigid book, then I don't even have to fold up the support arms.  Of course, that precludes me from using the GAIA while learning the song, but it's probably best that I add the bells and whistles and special effects after I get the basics of the song learned, anyway.

Og, I see the problem. The song is no longer there. We have only 2 pages in this section now, so the songs stay for a shorter time. So the link will not work.

Hi Bob,

The file has disappeared again. If you want to make your song permanent, I’d suggest posting the recording on SoundCloud or YouTube then post the link here.

Regards,

Vinciane

The actual box.net link works.  It's the link I posted that goes to the link on the songs played by forum members section -- that is the link that goes bad because links on that section are automatically deleted after a certain amount of time -- 30 days, I think.  I figured there are reasons for that, which is why I did not post a direct link to my box.net file here.

Does anyone know if we are allowed to post direct links to record cover songs outside the "songs played by forum members" section?

I wouldn't suggest that you or anyone else starts posting direct links to record cover songs outside the "Songs Played by Forum Members" board, Bob (SciNote).  Please remember, you have the option of becoming a PSR Performer and your songs will be posted to your "Performer's Page" on the main website.

We frequently have PSR Performers who post links to the songs on their "Performer's Page" in the "Songs Played by Forum Members" board, and those topics are removed after 30 days.

My best regards,
