Thanks! (Now... gotta export to Canada.) I want to buy this for Marybelle Frappier's birthday. She'd LOVE this.

@flutterbat89x69 10 месяцев назад

but they dont ship, how i can buy this if they provide only german shops?

@ericbergmueller2981 Год назад

I love all of your videos, but I must say, I enjoyed hearing you play more on this one than any other. Your happiness came through in your smile, your laughter, and THE SOUND!

@applecider Год назад

if this video was one hour long i would have watched it til the end in one sitting! love this sooo much 💜

@AxelBlack Год назад

Yes, a recreation video with this magical device? But which one?

@ratinhouepa Год назад

olha o apple cider aqui :))

@aturegano87 Год назад

That mix of piano and dx7 sounds outstanding. 🤩

@DespaceMan Год назад

Yep sure does, sync very well together 😁😁

@althejazzman Год назад

What was the Dave Grusin song he played? I recognised it.

@delscoville Год назад

Something I can easily do on my MODX+ with AWM2 and FM-X. Although it would be nice to use my acoustic piano like this, but only if the price beats getting a hammer action controller.

@pierrenhy3835 Год назад

Really amazing’ thank you for this demo

@nsubhedar Год назад

As soon as I heard the first note with the DX7, my mind went directly to Dave Grusin’s “Mountain Dance” - and then he played it! Beautiful sound!

@Maxxarcade Год назад

8:27 Such a nice sound. The delay/reverb really adds to it too. 15:00 The K2000 sounds great with that too!

@chrisoneill6460 Год назад

I’ve watched a lot of your videos, but this one has shown what an accomplished, expressive and beautiful piano player you are. Fab!

@Doctormix Год назад

Thank you! 😃

@bright1180 Год назад

If I had this installed I’d actually need to keep my piano in tune 😄

@mkilner Год назад

The very mention of Lyle Mays always is a thrill, I think it came through in this video, channeling a master with your own unique talent, wowee!! 👏🏻😌💫

@scottcupp8129 Год назад

Just sweet. So very sweet. Especially the DX7 and D50 piano combos

@kristopherdetar4346 Год назад

This updated technology is a real game changer. Can you make a video explaining how you were able to trigger each of your synths into this system. Many of us out here do not understand how MIDI works. Great playing as always. Your mastery of the keyboard always shines.

@Pake154 Год назад

I KNOW what it feels like to bring back to center stage such a valuable instrument as the studio´s piano. With so much gear you have, its obvious the piano took back seat in your arrangements. But today you always manage to give us something new and fresh. Looking at your conversion with great joy and envy It just went into my to-do list. Great video and sounds as always Claudio. Love you for your unselfish sharing and 100% supportive of your accustomed and contagious unboxing thrill. I´ve always said to my music friends in Chile where I live that I have this very cool internet friend. Hoping one day our virtual paths become reality. All the very best my friend...

That final piece with the K2000 was *superb*

@mauriziomarongiu2470 Год назад

il mondo potrebbe essere cosi...come te...semplice, felice...sorridente e pieno di orgoglio per la musica che l'umanità potrebbe suonare...basterebbe poco..come aggiungere una barra midi a un pianoforte acustico... mi hai emozionato molte volte...ma con questo video...con il tuo modo si tornare bambini...mi hai commosso...bellissimo

@joetaure Год назад

Wouah !! The sound is f*cking GREAT !! 🤩

@ShyFx8 Год назад

Good video. Disassembled almost the entire studio to get a better multidimensional piano sound with midi, and it worked. Power ballad.

@tellyjoossens4186 Год назад

Now that's why I love my trusty Yamaha DGX-650 Digital piano. You can play it like a piano, but at the same time you can compose like a keyboard and at the same time use it as a midi keyboard.

@DekritGampamole Год назад

Wow, natural key action and rich sounds. What more could you ask.

@AudioAtmos Год назад

Great job on the MIDI setup and the playing was wonderful. Such a treat.😃

@patriciaoudart1508 Год назад

I had a 100 years old piano before to find my first Korg M1, and I was thinking to use midi, the meeting have never been done, but I love playing the supernatural piano on my Jupiter 60, as using midi to drive so others, and I will buy the Solina replica from Behringer,, this is an option, but I have fun too in mixing piano and bells, or strings, this gives what you played, but we ear the un imitable harmonics from the strings of your piano, and this is very rarely listened on synths. Those harmonics are the residual vibrations for the near string resonating around the played note, and also there is two or three strings by note, so depending of the option chosen to according three strings, you obtain an effect that can be only listened with multi oscillators in analogic, badly emulated on numeric. That's why I return listening this video, by rare pleasure🤗🙏💚🧡

@Sowfivideo Год назад

Spectacular !

@BacCanale Год назад

Enya would love this so much! Especially the piano + K2

@Slurkz Год назад

Sweeet! 💜 Would be nice if there is a way to mute the piano strings, so you can play it as MIDI-only. But I think hat will be near to impossible without changing the attack characteristics dramatically.

@learnMax Год назад

Vario has a mute rail for this system too.

@keiths-teeth Год назад

A mute or soft pedal

@synthverkstad2093 Год назад

So my Yamaha upright has this built in already with a middle pedal that moves the hammers away from the strings if you want silent mode, built in optical sensors on all the keys and Midi out. Yamaha offers this system on some of their top range models too.

@Slurkz Год назад

@@synthverkstad2093 That is amazing! I had no idea. Thanks.

Amazing Doctor 😀..

@LenweSaralonde Год назад

It would have been great they sent you the version of the kit with the mute bar so you can use your piano as a MIDI controller with no piano sound at all, I'm curious to see how it works. This kit is amazing!

@joaofelix120 Год назад

Fantastic ! ! !

@Reuben1024 Год назад

Absolutely loved this - beautiful, inspirational playing. The DX7 and piano my favourite (and is on my MODX ) but with real piano and a much more accomplished pianist than I - absolutely stunning. Would love more videos of you playing

@leftengelmann Год назад

Well, thank you for using a really good product of Bechstein Digital!

@lospollosdelhuevos6598 Год назад

Absolutely love piano sounds layered with synth and this is on another level! Well played as always!

Dr. Mix is out of control! Only NATO can stop him now. His insane mix of musical skill, imagination, technology and charm is a danger not only to other studios, but to the whole of humanity!

@HammondDirk Год назад

I'm working on my own self-made MIDI interface for my Hammond A-100, there are already contacts in the manuals, but they are worn too much to be reliable... I guess my old Schimmel piano might be a good victim for the first test version, as is is much easier to take apart than the A-100. This video gives me cool ideas of what it might be good for, yes, connect it to the DX7, D-50 etc. 😀

@epolder Год назад

I really want this and reached out to Bechstein for it.... fingers crossed.

@arnaudforgiel268 Год назад

This is absolutely brilliant ! I didn't know such a product existed. Many thanks to Bechstein for this marketing campaign : I'll see if I can retrofit my Grotrian Steinweg from the 80's with VARIO Connect ;) Does anyone have an idea of the price for the VARIO Connect solution ?

@chris200179 Год назад

If you speak Samuel's at Bechstein House, they will help you. Let me guess, your Grotrain has a M followed by a five figure digit on the the treble side? I used to work on Grotrain's at the original dealer in London :-)

@lmv3982 Год назад

What was that song played on the dx7 ???? Was spectacular

@stevenburns989 Год назад

@Doctormix Год назад

Indeed it is!

@KCJazzKeys Год назад

A year ago some of us put on a "Pat Metheny Group" tribute concert and I had to step into the ernormous shoes of Lyle Mays. I probably spent a good week or two just on that 14 bar ensemble section from "Minuano" that you showed as an example of his MIDI piano rig. This makes me want to add one of these to one of my Fender Rhodes pianos

@LiveReview Год назад

Its great idea to create such midi instrument from a wonderful piano. Thank you Claudio for wonderful video!

@soniclab-cnc Год назад

that piano sounds amazing

@marcoduurenvan4212 Год назад

Aah Mountain Dance (Dave Grusin), long time not heard. Cool system this.

@coensen Год назад

Man! you can play. Love it. 😍😍

@soniclab-cnc Год назад

digging the soundtrack.... I had to turn that up a bit

@denisrobichaud4113 Год назад

You might want to add a quiet keys mute rail. Ive installed a similar setup on a yamaha grand for a local church who wanted the best of both worlds. It allows you the ability to arrest the hammer before striking the string which makes the piano a controller for a midi synth, just like you have.

@mikezaw8781 Год назад

Piano + DX7

@FunkyELF Год назад

That thing looks awesome. If I had one I'd also want to mod my piano with a lever or something that could completely disable the acoustic piano to be able to do silent practicing.

@PeterKNoone Год назад

I can do that finger thing. Love your videos.

@edwarddebenham1416 Год назад

What an awesome concept

@gancci1932 Год назад

This system is a dream for me who lives in Brazil. I made one by myself but is not precise like Vario. And i also made a mute rail that cancel de piano sound conpletely

This is super magical

@ezion67 Год назад

I want one for my Marantz Pianocorder. It's an ongoing restoration project. The old key sensors/switches didn't allow for velocity, so I threw them out. As it is now, it plays back midi, there are electromagnets under each keys (well, 80 of the keys). But the manual has no sensors, so there is no midi out. This seems like a perfect solution.

After your Kurzweil 2000 synth video, I definitely blame you😁. I drove into the deepest part of upper Austria. Only to picked up a massive block of concrete, a 22 Kg Kurzweil SP2x for only a couple of buttons. So I understand the joy of playing on a full size with weighted keys. This is my Piano right now. Which is connected to my Minilogue XD too. So it's the best of both worlds. It's so much freakin' fun! Thank you so much, oh its still your fault btw! 🤩 Midi Piano rulez

@Валерий-ы6э3р Год назад

Super sound! Genius

@danw1955 Год назад

Very nice demo! The sound selection is pretty much unlimited when you have a setup like this! I think I like the DX-7 the best though, since I actually have a TX-7 (essentially the guts of the DX-7 in a separate unit), and I still use it with a Casio WK-1800 MIDI workstation. Really like your selections to match the different sounds!😉🎵🎶
