Shine on you Crazy Diamond on Yamaha Motif XS 

When I did this video I used different sounds - I think I used the Medium large section PRE 4 A15 for the strings, and Progressy PRE 1 F12 for the organ. I could be wrong , because I made the video a long time ago and can't remember the sounds I used ! The synth sound is Feeling PRE 5 D02. I might have also used underlying synth strings as well - hope this helps - There is definitely no patch called Shine On on the Motif XS presets

I love this song always hear ... for all time, bravo

Lol that solo on the guitar^^ sounds even better than guitar itself lol

Nice job! I loved it! Now I need to try and learn it on my Yamaha. Thank you.

Your vocals are fine,,really nice job on everything else. You should be a motif salesman, you sure show how versatile it is. Kudos.

@oysterlovers true true - i made the same sound as pink floyd on Yamaha MM6 which also uses MOTIF sounds

Man thats so nice. Makes me want to pack my XS8 back in the box. Very nice.

geniale.. mi arriva oggi la motif xs 7.. sentire questa cover suonata completamente con la motif mi fa apprezzare ancora di più l'acquisto che sto per fare..:) grande.. bravissimo

I hated everything before 1:00 , but then it got awesome :) It's a good thing that I actually had the patience :)

Its a very nice cover...great

WOW AWESOME!!! NICE STYLE

@mikak3607 It is not the Motif. It is the voice that has not been dialed in properly to match that used in the song. The Motif could get much closer though just how close has yet to be demonstrated. I have heard Kurzweil K2000 series missing the mark as well. Jon Carin actually improved on Richard Wright's voices so it is a matter of fine tuning.

Great job! I played my guitar along with you! AWESOME!

spot on work man i really enjoyed listening to it

Thanks for the great vid! I had a blast researching the patches and finding the right ones to use.... J

People always do this differently to the original. The original (on wywh) is a simple Gm triad in hammond organ (or some other kind of mellow sounding chordal thingy) and one moving note in the strings pad. I Think Rick started to do a full sounding string section from DSOT onwards

This is great, but I agree with some of the comments, the lead synth sound at the intro is not good enough out of the Motif, thats why I play it with both the Motif and an Access Virus TI, it sounds like the real thing. Otherwise, great job!

very very very good. loved it. another youtube member is going to record just the synth part for me to play guitar over. thanks for posting.

wow amazing!

It sounds amazing!

Nice!-What-organ-voice-did-you-use?-It's-pretty-sweet!

Wow that was great, now I can't get Pulse out of my head!!!

Excellent very well done....Good job!

Excellent! Thank you man :) 5 starts from me, awesome playing in an awesome keyboard... keep the Floyd coming!

the swirly thing? haha - what do you mean exactly? do you mean the leslie speaker effect? or when you go all up the keyboard hitting every key? The best way to do the second thing is to keep your foot on the sustain pedal (for an organ sound) and then release it at the point where you get to the intended note / chord. And don't do it too slowly or it will sound pretty bad. If you mean the leslie speaker effect then it's best to take the leslie completely or nearly off just before adding it

Thanks for posting this really help refresh my memory. Oh and by the way if I didn't know better I'd swear that's my hand

It's PRE4 D12 on my S90ES, but it's probably different on the XS. You can find it under "Synth Pad / Choir" if you browse by categories.

Actually you're right - I am kind of telling the truth - what happened was I recorded the song from scratch, and then went back and did the video with my keyboard on mute to try and recreate the notes - so that's why it's out of sync - coz sometimes i got it wrong ! and also it didn't sync exactly - but it is me i swear !

yeah i know - i recorded the sound through the computer and tried to match it up with the digital camera - it was ok until i unloaded it up to youtube, when it went slightly out of sync

wow u the man!

@SirRoyRogers Yes, everything is from the XS

Bravissimo e grazie era proprio quello che cercavo!!!!!!

5 * * * * * EXCELLENT!!

Awesome!!!!

thank you for the answer but the presets are so not correct, but its now not a problem for me. I have edit a voice with an church organ and string sound and now its playing good. The original sound from this pad can you find by the "Quasimidi Quasar" and the sound calls itself there "Shine ON". sorry for my english...this is not so good. I can speak better than germany ;-)

Dude, Awesome job!

Good job fella, well done.

awesome job man! it sounds great!

@mikak3607 I think the motif is good enough - I was just lazy and used a preset - you can tweak everything on it

thanks a lot - by the way i love your videos

Thanks - Gm all across the keyboard

Man,thanks a lot for taking all the time to do this video,it was so fun,and it is respectful to the Floyd,please,can you tell me wich presets did you use (the pad at the intro is just great)

first of all: what a job!! You play very well and ths sounds you used are fine! Just, in my opinion, the little lack of leslie effect with the drawbar organ; but maybe it's a personnal wish... But talking about the guitars: they are awesome! with rights effects on them! a real pleasure to hear such a quality! Congratulations!

love it! what would you charge for a mix without drums and vox? or with out drums? trying to learn vocals and drums. thanks

hallo I look for this organ/string sound in the intro on my XS but.... I cannot find him. please can you say me which sound this is? is it a preset or a user sound?

Ya, what he said. Well done

thanks a lot - yeah - everything is from the Motif

absolutely super super super super!!

Cheers

I can't remember sorry, but it's one of the big string patches with the octave down

no it has nothing to do with the decay, because there is no decay on this organ sound - try doing it with a bit of distortion when you do it - that should mask any cheesy organ sounding notes - apart from that i don't know - and do it with your thumb not your finger (although that shoudn't really matter it means your hitting 2 or 3 notes at the same time as opposed to one at a time)

Very good. Do you play the guitar lead and saxo with Motif XS presets? I work with a XS6 and I´m very interesting. Good job!

I have a Motif XS6.The guitars and sax sound so real.. Can you tell me the programs you use to play the guitars and sax? Thanks in advance.

great !!!!!

Sorry but i have the data list from the S90 here but there are only 3 Preset banks not 4. And on the Motif XS there is no Preset with the Name "Shine ON" not in the voices and not in the performances.

Amazing and inspiring. Did you add recording layers to that or are some pre-recorded movements that came with the keyboard? Either way, it sounds fantastic and offers me something to shoot for.

hi, i have a yamaha motif x6 and I would like to play confortably numb but I do not know the keyboard very well and I do not know how to set the various sounds well ... can you help me? thanks

how awesome !!!! *_*

Sorry....but I cant find this preset? Where can i find this USR1/2/3 or Preset 1 to 6?

Lol.....in reading some of these comments, you would think that you were rehearsing for a job with Floyd and you were performing at an audition in front of professional talent scouts. With all the "should have", "would have" and "could haves", you might surmise, you didn't get the gig. Funny thing though, these talent scouts have nothing posted of theirs to enjoy. ...... Great job man, think you did great!

you put david gilmour in the tags but not rick wright david mason or roger waters?

sorry, but, the sound is perfect, and, cold is the ghost on this frame. o.k.

please...can you call me all the sounds you have used here by the xs (User or Presets with the number ) thank you

I think the Motif does a good Hammond. Just one man's opinion. The guitars are nice on it as well.

amen.

which organ's preset do you use in this video???

There is a preset appropriately titled "Shine On".

What setting is the first part

i like it but it would be better with the second guitar part and a bass part

only thing i can complain about is the attack on the intro solo... it's more of a slow-attack "bweeeooww" kind of sound.

Very good job! :)

Aftertouch for the vibrato?

Do you play the guitar lead and saxo with the XS?

bravo c"est superbe Marcel

hey thanks - no i did everything from scratch - the problem was how to make a video from it

Not bad at all! I really enjoyed it. Vocals aren't bad either.

Great!

Thanks a lot..it really helps...))))!!!!!!

cant beat either a korg m3 or the flagship korg oasis best ever sounds ever puts motive to shame

Esta genial pero de donde sacas la pista de fondo?

Hi, thats great! Have you got the sheet for that part or do you have that written down?

Nicely done sir. Enjoyed Us and Them too. If you have time to do Any Colour You Like, I would a) be very impressed, and b) consider you a bona fide legend of RU-vid keyboard posters. Now there's a title worth having...

Top !

I did the intro on my M-audio Axiom-61, with Reason 4.0, Made my own sounds... check it out.

Yeah !!!

I'd still the Prohpet 5 has the best tone out of any boards on the market right now for this song.

So the vocals are ok then ? ;D

Your drum track is extremely well done. Did you lay it down from scratch or altered a demo song? If so, which one? Thanks

cheers - i'll send you a mix via email

@mikak3607 haters gonna hate man

what is that

I really like your whole orchestration and rendition of it. You play very contemplatively. And your voice ain't really that bad for a guy screwing around in hi living room or whatever. But the fact is...I really HATE your synthesizer! I would never buy one of those Motifs. :-)

Very nice. What DAW are you using? What voices are you using on the lead synth and guitar sound? I have a Motif XF and am not getting the needed sounds. Thank you

Pink Floyd wrote "Dogs".

Nearly HAMMOND, real HAMMOND sound, not bad, but the best one is HAMMOND B3 or XK serie or so SK serie. I'm sure than if you use a real LESLIE cabinet HAMMOND sound will be better.

sorry man, the yamaha motif is just not good enough for the lead synth. its too cold and sounds not realistic. i prefer a kurzweil more than this thing

i hear a nasal sound, squawking, other then a some notes and wrong shadeo, then i hear at the end unfortunately, the voice very stunted

you must be joking!

I love this song always hear ... for all time, bravo

I have a Motif XS6.The guitars and sax sound so real.. Can you tell me the programs you use to play the guitars and sax? Thanks in advance.
