The Weeknd - Blinding Lights | Loop Guitar and Synthesizer cover

video upload by Karel Smit

"I wanted to do a cover again where I played everything live. It limits the amount of layers and dynamics a bit, and the buildup needs some patience, but so much fun to do!

Set-up:
Arturia Keystep Pro sequences:
-Track 1 Moog Mother-32: arpeggio thingy during verse
-Track 2 Arturia Minibrute 2s: Bass
-Track 3 Korg Minilogue xd (double Osc sawtooth)/Ableton wavetable plugin (double sawtooth with sub)
-Track 4 Arturia Microfreak Vocoder Edition: pads

Arturia Drumbrute Impact: drums (kick, snare, clap, hihats)
Guitar: Fender american strat. Sounds from Archetype: Cory Wong plugin by Neuraldsp. Harmonised part is made with the Digitech Whammyt DT set to a higher fifth

Recorded, mixed and effects added in Ableton live 10"

"It was time for something cinematic again. This one was a bit challenging, because I couldn't find any sheet music, so it's definitely not entirely the same as the original, but I like how it turned out :)

-Track 1 Grand piano (Ableton plugin)
-Track 2 Arturia Minibrute 2s: bass

-Track 4 Moog Mother 32: highs / Ableton plugins: Viola section & Glowing choir female

Maschine MK3 for drums. Used toms from multiple groups and edited the samples a lot
