Gestures Gear VBlog: Giants Steps on the WX7
YouTube via AccumulatedGestures | February 11, 2011 |
"Sean wasn't happy with his first video playing the WX7 and decided to up the ante and shred some electronic sax on John Coltrane's Giant Steps, and then some general fun playing around with synth tones.
The WX7 is a vintage wind controller made by Yamaha in the late 1980s that is long since out of production. Not having its own built in sound module, the WX7 is here setup to control a Dave Smith Instruments Desktop Evolver via MIDI.
About us:
The Accumulated Gestures are an 8-piece neo-soul/funk band from Perth, Western Australia. With lead vocalist/producer Donovan de Souza being an avid collector of synthesizers and vintage keyboards as well as a current move towards incorporating more synthesizers in our band sound, our Gear VBlog aims to show the strengths and limitations of synth interfaces, synthesizers and other musical gear. The kind of videos Donovan would have liked to see when he was buying electronic gear in the first place. .
