Missing | Fender Rhodes Electric Piano and Kawai SX-240 improvisation
video upload by MIDERA
"The other night - I learned about the Yamaha CP-70. Now I want one. They sound so good. I can't usually play acoustic piano on my main floor because my kids are around and I'll be distracted. I can't play at night because they're sleeping - so I kind of wanted an acoustic piano in my studio... Of course, from what I hear, the CP-70 is very big. It seems like it's about the same size as my rhodes, but deeper. I would probably have to part with my Rhodes to get the CP-70. I'm not sure what to do....
On another note, yesterday I started to realize that I'm embarrassing my daughter. I was dancing with my younger daughter, and my older daughter wanted nothing to do with it or me. It was a realization that those fun days making her laugh, dancing with her, playing with her, are coming to an end. It made me really sad.

MotorSynth MK2 | By Gamechanger Audio
video upload by Cinematic Laboratory
"When the first Motor Synth was introduced back in 2019, the synth community unanimously agreed to disagree. For some the MOTOR Synth appeared to be a completely ridiculous, overengineered and limited instrument - at one point the phrase “pure embodiment of evil hipster trash” was used, while others called it one of the most innovative and exciting instrument designs the industry had seen in years. The truth lies somewhere in the middle and I feel it's MUCH better and cooler than people think it is.
However, spending 3K on it doesn't make it yours. It's packed with so many features you'll need to find your own gemstones buried in the trash. After spending four days with this unit (on loan, not mine) I realized theirs true magic when it's limitations are starting to work against it. It excels when it fails. Please note, this unit makes a LOT of noise even when it's not connected to any amp or audio interface. Still, the mechanical noise is an essential part of the final experience and you should always record it, even when you decide not to use it later. Most of my recordings in this video has the camera audio, attenuated at -10 dB. It's really loud, but it's not a motor synth without it.
The synth is simply too expensive to make this a review, and I don't do reviews anyway. I try to focus on production value. If you're a pro composer for films and games, this thing is a highly recommended no brainer. The same applies for evil hipsters. If not, try to borrow one from an evil hipster and sample the hell out of it.
Big thanks to Gamechanger Audio for letting me borrow it. This video is sponsored by me, no money changed hands and I can't keep it.
