Tonysounds Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I didn't notice that anyone posted about this, but Keyboard did a great video interview series with Paul, specifically about his keyboard rig. Here it is: http://tinyurl.com/y8n69l2 I love that he has pieces because of "this sound" and this piece because it does "that sound"...a couple nice Kurzweil relics up there along with the JD990. Hitting "Play" does NOT constitute live performance. -Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Golly Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 LOL... sounds like Paul was trying to pick up SF: Paul: "I've got James Brown's B3... you should come and see it." SF: "Where is it?" Paul: "In my apartment... in Manhattan..." Great interview, Stephen, but can I suggest we take up a donation here on the forum to buy Keyboard a video camera that picks up the interviewees voice at an equal (or greater) level to the interviewer?

Ian Benhamou Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Yeah, I was surprised no one posted about this. Great interview. I love that he still gets off on the original sampled sax sound from the K250. Proof once again that you don't always need the latest and greatest.

Rocket Man 2 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Great interview, Stephen, but can I suggest we take up a donation here on the forum to buy Keyboard a video camera that picks up the interviewees voice at an equal (or greater) level to the interviewer? One would think that Keyboard would have manipulated the audio in a studio so that the interviewer's voice and the interviewee's voice would be the same volume. Go figure?? But thank you for making the interview available. It's really interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would think that Keyboard would have manipulated the audio in a studio so that the interviewer's voice and the interviewee's voice would be the same volume. Go figure?? But thank you for making the interview available. It's really interesting. There is a easy way to do this... Either put a Lav mic on the interviewee / talent or have a guy with a mic on a boom pole. Run either mic directly into the camera. The latter requires an extra mouth to feed, but the Lav mic can be had fairly cheap.

Just curious to see/hear what he's doing outside of TV and his book. It was for the 2009 rock hall inductions in Cleveland. I played (violin) in the band with Paul and the CBS Orchestra, I took that pic from my cell phone. I was very impressed with Paul and his professionalism, things were well-rehearsed and sounded very good. On top of that, I got the impression that he was probably a genuinely good guy.

Stephen Fortner Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hi all, That was Jon Regen on the videos, though I did recently meet Paul at a Letterman taping in NYC. Jon, I think, used his Flip HD Cam, which is less than ideal for audio. We're working on getting him something better, as he's simply a machine about getting access to top players. Jon also does tend to talk a bit louder than the artists sometimes--he's a true New Yorker. I'll be using a Zoom Q3 at NAMM, a Flip-like camera that has good X-Y mics on it. We'll see how they do in the noisy trade show environment. Sven, I'll have to let Jon speak to your comment. We've got a feature on Paul in March, and his Letterman rig is the "Geek Out" back page.
