Comfortably Numb keyboards - Pînk Floyd

Postby mon8169 » 30 May 2011, 20:34

Here's a program I started a long time ago ... but I quit the band I was in, so it remains unfinished.

The sound isn't quite there, but maybe somebody will found it useful to start with. I tried to voice the brass seccions by fingering between chords with velocity sensing and some aftertouch to push a little the left hand volume. All in all it was a nightmare to control and at the end it didn't cut through the band.

Hi Ramon,
I think I've played with that band before "everyone's amps go to eleven" ;)
It's a good patch.
Most of the Pink Floyd shows that I've seen have three people playing keys.
You're a great player, but to pull off 3 people's work with a "flawless!" would be superhuman, or at bare minimum "Jordan Rudess"!
In your demo clip, the brass voicings are too dense, try dropping out the root note of the chord "Moog Taurus pedals are playing that anyway" spread out the third and fifth by as many notes as possible "6th interval". Loose the brass part in lieu of the second string part during the string arpeggios.

Cheers, Hanon

I know, I know.... but I always found quite boring to play pad sounds with just the chords. I like this song very much, but playing it, from my keyboarder perspective, is another matter!!

The problem with the patch is that the Stage just allows 2 synth sounds together and I'm aiming for 3 voices.... but I don't need to play the song anymore, so it remains unfinished...
