Old Upright
By Brad Saucier in Acoustic Pianos and Piano Layers
A significantly different type of piano sound for the PX-5S. The end result reminded me of my old Brambach upright. I like this piano played through speakers rather than headphones. Enjoy!

Old Upright (MZ-X500, hex layer)
By Brad Saucier in MZ-X300 / MZ-X500
A very different piano sound from the presets. Using hex layer synth mode, split shifting the factory piano samples dramatically alters the timbre. The result is a sound reminiscent of the old upright piano I grew up playing. This was a tone I originally programmed for the PX-5S, now ported to the MZ-X500.

By Brad Saucier in Acoustic Pianos and Piano Layers
Yet another EQ'ed concert grand. This is a bright sound with good bass (smiley face EQ curve). This one offers help for those who may use problematic PA speakers and amps that make the piano sound muddy or dark. If you are a heavy handed player, adjust system settings>general>touch to heavy. Use LIGHT if are are a light player.

RagTonk Tack Piano's (PX-5s)
By Brad Saucier in Acoustic Pianos and Piano Layers
These are dramatically different piano's for the PX-5s. These are upright pianos with tacks applied to the hammer felt. Great for playing ragtime or honky tonk style piano. This piano represents a piano where microphones are not ideally placed. You can hear a lot of hammer noise, both at key strike and key release and some room acoustics being picked up as well.
Note: The modulation wheel gives a very special effect on this stage setting. It simulates analog "Wow" similar to off center vinyl record on a poorly setup turntable. A little modulation goes a long way here. Don't apply too much.
Note 2: Zone 2 of these stage settings is part of the piano sound. Do not overwrite zone 2. If you sequence this piano, you will need to sequence 2 channels. Zone 1 and Zone 2 make up this piano sound.
The stage settings included here are two variations of the same piano.
Tack Piano 2 ...has a dull bass range that allows the higher register to shine bright.
Tack piano 1... has brighter bass range for when you need a cutting rhythm.

Real Synth Cowbell in the Synth Drum Set
By Brad Saucier in Synths, Pads, Arpeggios and more
This is my synthesized cowbell placed along side of Synth Set 2. My cowbell is on Ab3 and the sampled cowbell I moved to Bb3 for a good side by side comparison. My synth cowbell is not on the same zone as Synth Set 2 so if you want to use it in a drum beat it will take some clever programming to do it.

Retro Vib Saw Synth Pack (10 Hex Tones)
By Brad Saucier in Synths, Pads, Arpeggios and more
Here's some of my synth tones I've created. I collected them and categorized them. This is a set of 10 saw based tones. These were all inspired by one thing or another. The cryptic abbreviations of the tones hint at what I was going for although now I don't even remember some of them.

Ridin the Storm Sawtooth Intro - REO Speedwagon
By Brad Saucier in Song Ready Stage Settings
I made this sawtooth wave Stage Setting for the intro to Ridin the Storm Out by REO Speedwagon. This should get you through the entire intro of the song. To perform the intro, I was starting by adjusting the resonance on slider 2 to get right level of nastiness before play. I then hit the low A note and slowly adjusted slider 1 for cutoff to get the nastiness too sweep. I set slider one to max out at the right spot. BTW: I have chorus on the mod wheel if you like to add some move it all the way up. Portamento will sweep you up to the next high C note but to turn around and bend back down to the high A you'll need to use the bender wheel. I set the bender to stop at the right spot. Then adjust slider one back down to lower the cutoff and then release the note to fade out.
I hope you enjoy.
