Kurzweil K2700 FUN Tip ! Splitted Aftertouch


video upload by Barb

"Hi,
This short video is about using some FUNs (Functions) of the K2700 to create a splitted aftertouch. You also can do it by duplicate a layer and adjust differently the settings on each, but that would be gross ;-))) There are so much things to do with the FUNs, this video is just a basic sneak peek...Have fun watching !"

"This video plays a short sound demo of some 47 or so demo songs, off the Kurzweil K2600x synthesizer. Unfortunately my webcam captured the synth display all as one bright blue blob, so instead I added static images, sorry."

Free K250 Power Drum Samples: Plus Emulator Demo


video upload by Off The Matrix

"The the legendary K250 had a powerful set of classic 80's drum samples. The dry samples can be layered with the ambient samples, a shorter decay of the ambient samples will have the effect of less reverberation. The kit is really versatile, it works well for many styles.
The video ends with a demo of the Emulator Symphonic Library that will be available sometime next year. Just go to the page and download the samples. No baloney!

FVS vs reSEMble Nov 2023


video upload by Randy Piscione

"Another demo of the PM Foundations reSEMble, four of them (https://www.tindie.com/stores/pmfound....) This time, I've duplicated a patch on the FVS and the reSEMbles. I was going to do a dry video but figured I'd do a little tune. At the beginning you can see my left hand playing the FVS while the right hand plays the reSEMbles, and since they alternate for a brief time, you can compare the two instruments. Together they sound amazing! I imagine this is what it's like to play a dual manual eight voice. There are also some ARPs, a Rhodes, a Kurzweil K2600XS, and an Alesis SR16 adding support."
