roygBiv Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Crikey! That is pretty phenomenal! Great groove- that dude's left-hand bass was amazing, and the rest of it even more so! Thanks for posting that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Schmieder Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Cool. I've had Rockit on my rearrangement/covers list for some time. This one's pretty faithful though. I have more radical plans afoot. 🙂 But yeah, awesome chops, tight left-hand bass and incredible control with the vocoding.

Cheers, Mike Unfortunately, I can't find my notes; just a reference in a jazz album project to "see other notes". Hopefully I'll find those notes once I FINALLY finish unpacking my last few manuscript boxes in my new house. My vague recollection is that I was planning on turning it into sort of a Sousa march featuring the tuba. 1 Quote Eugenio Upright, 60th Anniversary P-Bass, USA Geddy Lee J-Bass, Yamaha BBP35, D'angelico SS Bari, EXL1, Select Strat, 70th Anniversary Esquire, LP 57, Eastman T486, T64, Ibanez PM2, Hammond XK4, Moog Voyager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RABid Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 We played it back in the 80's. I used a Sequential Drum Trax for drums and Chroma for keys. I don't think Herbie changed a thing about the default Chroma patches that he used on the recording. Didn't really need to. That was a nice patch. Quote This post edited for speling.

The RD2000 has different endcaps and has LED sliders and encoders to the left of the display.

Now, which of these you mention above delivers this Rhodes sound ? And can it be, this multisample made it into successors too ? A.C.

Pa Gherkin Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 These guys are great. What a shame nobody seems to be paying any attention except for one woman at the left of the screen who is into it. If I was there I’d be applauding like crazy.

I see 20-23 onlookers in the first and 10 in the second video. Time of day and week make a difference. The woman you mentioned is the only one showing her enthusiasm by moving her body though but the dude who uses his to navigate to the tip jar deserves recognition. A lot of people listen with their eyes. There is a lot happening with these two yet they are relatively stoic given all the funkiness they are emanating in audio waves.
