KORG Radias on Gearwire

Title link takes you to the video. I did a screen grab in what I thought was a particularly funny part of the video where Joe couldn't figure how to latch the arpeggiator because it actually wasn't in apeggiator mode. : ) That's him trying to latch it. Note the led for arpeggiator is not lit to the right. Before you pass judgment, admit how many times you've done the same. What was funny about the video to me, is that I'm 100% guilty of the same more often than I might like to admit. I love that the Gearwire guys leave this stuff in their videos. It makes it more human. You get the sense that you are just hanging out with them. It takes a lot a guts to not edit this stuff out in order to look perfect. Cheers to them.

You can find part one of the video here.

  5. He just destroyed a good synth... :(

    Crappy cheezy he so insinuated ... but the way he toys with it and was playing those cheezy sounds... it's even cheezier :S... well, nice of them to be passionate about putting up videos about synths BUT please do at least some research before putting up a video? Even when I first got it out of the box and player with it hands on, it wasn't this bad! At least I know if I wana tweak the Filter 2 section I have to SELECT IT...

    Hope KORG to see this vidz. Now this make me wana do a audio demo on the Radias to prove to this guy that "that's not pretty much everything"...

    Hmmm Matrix have a Radias huh... noted (checked) :P

  6. No, I don't actually have one. I get lost on other synths. ;)

  7. OMG! That was so painful to watch. Yes, we all jump around when we first get a synth and press buttons before we finally have to take a crap and go read the manual but LORD you don't want to see someone else doing it - and talk about it - and make excuses along the way - with one hand no less while he holds the mic in the other!

    Gearwire is ok but this guy is majorly confused and the other guy with the funny name is also a total jerk. The stoner-looking dude who does all the stompbox demos is cool though - I'd buy him a beer.

  8. Is it guts to leave all those blunders in, or just poor/lazy editing?

  9. Nine negative comments, yet Matrix respects this?
    I now why he thinks photos of boxes are entertainment.

    Bad judgment = Bad video = Bad comments

  10. It's guts. Think of the criticism. It would be easier to just not put it up.

  11. But then, I guess if you don't really care about the criticism it might not be guts. Who knows and who really cares, I guess. It is what it is. It is fun watching the comments come in. : ) Almost as fun as Buchla!

  12. Ok, I just finished watching it. Too busy putting up posts and catching up on stuff. Yap, that was entertaining alright. Glad you all liked it. Bwahaha! ;)

  13. yup.. done that as many times as they will every five minutes. they're terrible.

  14. I didn't think it was THAT bad. It is basically what you would hear if you yourself had just got the RADIAS and started playing presets. I thought it gave a good idea of what the RADIAS could sound like and served the stated function of the video (stated explicitly at the beginning).

    So much complaining....
