Re: About keytar... (shoulder keyboards)
Hi Alex! I own Roland AX-1 key-guitar and it is so funny to play! AX-7 is the new model but basically it is the same thing. Of course, the approach is different than a standard keyboard, you have to do a training for a few weeks to get the maximum from this "soloist" instrument. Then you will enjoy it! As you know, I played "MY DEAR CHOPIN" on Roland AX-1, then "HANDS OF FIRE", "ADAGIO IN G MINOR" and other impro and solos... absolutely fantastic to get some articulations and phrases impossible on standard keyboards. Primarily, try and be familiar with controls on left hand: modulation, ribbon and sustain. These controls will improve your playing and expressiveness so much! About “MY DEAR CHOPIN”, it is a good stuff to try and check AX-7, especially if you try to play something I recorded on the new improvisation that you find on my website http://www.mistheria.com/sounds.html Note that the theme of this songs is played with “tapping technique” , I mean: keep down the middle note and play the others… E.g.: on the first chord (Db), keep down F key and articulate Db and Ab keys. So on… For expressiveness, try to play “ADAGIO IN G MINOR”… I’m working on my instructional DVD, I hope to release it before June 2006. It will show all techniques I use and a chapter will be dedicated to Roland AX key-guitar… I hope this help… let’s start playing bro! ;-) Sincerely, Mistheria |

Re: About keytar... (shoulder keyboards)
...diciamo che una custodia morbida per tastiere standard 5 ottave va bene, io uso una di quelle... esattamente un modello PROEL in cui entra perfettamente la sagoma originale in polistirolo in cui era alloggiata l'AX. Forse il modello uguale al mio non è piu' in produzione, ma qui puoi trovare la custodia giusta che ti serve: http://stage.proelgroup.com/stage/it/catalog.jsp?id_cat=11199669141180 Un abbraccio, a presto! |
