Short Clip - Hammond A-100 Organ and Leslie 145 Speaker - Isolated during recording of blues tune
zhlédnutí 176Před 2 lety
I recorded some organ tracks on a friend’s album from my recording studio at home. This is what a soloed Hammond organ track sounds like on a blues tune. When you solo any instrument on a blues tune, you’ll hear some familiar riffs. The setup is my Hammond A-100 organ through a Leslie 145 speaker. Full 5:00 track here czcams.com/video/o47qk-DJcjg/video.html

"Won't Get Fooled Again" Keyboard Part with Zebra2
zhlédnutí 1,5KPřed 6 lety
“Won’t Get Fooled Again” by The Who - keyboard part. I’m still exploring the profundity of Zebra2. First I created an organ patch that sounded like Pete Townshend’s Lowery organ with a bit of tape saturation thrown in, then I modulated it using the same technique he did. (He played on his Lowrey Berkshire Deluxe TBO-1 organ through a EMS VCS3 mk1 synth). Here is the first 1:00 of the intro to t...

Diving in deep with the @uheplugins Zebra2 plug-in again. No arpeggiator on this one. (Here comes the technobabble).

One of My Fave. Awesomeness Armen & Crew. 😁😎
Sounds great. Is the lid covered with sticky vinyl or it was glossy black painted?
Thanks you. The paint is auto body paint with red flecks.
This is a far cry from my days with Ringling Brothers band and the elephant poop. Nice to hear something other than a Sousa march LOL!!!
No animals in Cirque du Soleil so didn’t have to deal with elephant poop! Lol
This is rock n roll heaven.
Շնորհակալություն, Արմեն ջան! Լավագույն մաղթանքներս!!!
Helped a lot, thanks!
You’re welcome! I forgot that I made this video!

Hi
You've included the guitar riff. Very nice.
Thanks Paul!
everyone needs Jimmy Page playing Rock n' Roll in the back.... even Vladimir Horowitz. Great!!!
Фантастика!❤
This deserves so much more views! I could hear the rest of the band in my head, wow!
rip legend 🙏🙏
By any chance, do you still happen to have this patch? I tried to recreate it but it is not as good as yours. My Zebra2 doesn't have this "Organ Drawbars 1-6" oscillator preset.
Sure. How do I send it to you?
@@ArmenChakmakian you can send to me... "guilhermeruppert" on that famous g-meyou
Great! And what a beautiful piano restoration and painting!
Nice job! But just to clear things up: John Bonham's drum intro on "Rock & Roll" was lifted from the intro to Little Richard's "Keep a Knockin'"
And what goes around comes around.
@@uncleinflammatory9916 ... especially with Recyclin' Zeppelin 😁
Thank you so much. I waited years for someone to create this! Bonzo would have loved this!
Thanks!
That's friggin' awesome!
Thanks!
3:18 I liked the repeat of the opening riff as an outro riff
Thank you!
@@ArmenChakmakianwow
My thoughts exactly!
Excellent, I love this! How did you isolate the zep vocals? I have a few samples I'm working with but struggling to get a clean sound.
I used iZotope. I think it was their Rebalance plug-in. It was easy to isolate Plant's vocals with that software, but it left reverb artifacts and quiet leftover vocal sounds on the rhythm track. So I was able to remove those with iZotope RX9.
@@ArmenChakmakian thankyou, that's very helpful! I have been looking for some new professional grade plugins, sounds like this one does a pretty good job at isolation. I'll make a note of it. thankyou for answering my question :)
@@froogsleegs you’re welcome.
I remember Alex saying. We see Brazilians know how to party, but us you know, we know how to throw a party!!!!
Genius!
THIS IS YOUR COUSIN, MARVIN BERRY.. REMEMBER THAT NEW SOUND YOURE LOOKING FOR?? WELL LISTEN TO THIS… 📞
Is this a real Hammond? Or new build replica? Seems an original (old classic we could say).
what letters are you using
If you're asking me about sheet music that I'm reading, I'm not reading any music. I just learned it by listening to the original recording.
@@ArmenChakmakian I play this one in my band on my 1975 Rhodes Suitecase. Easy song to figure out by ear, haha. I'm looking at these Wurli 140-145 series right now, thinking about trying to find one, haha

So dang good 😍 I might have to buy the original Saltimbanco soundtrack. I’ve missed it.
This is Great, currently playing in a Cirque Ensemble at Berklee. We play pieces from all the productions and I took inspiration from current and previous musicians. Thank you for your help!

Finally one talented piano player that uses the Volante! I was looking for this! This awesome! I just bought a Volante, will lock myself up and dive in the sonic soundscapes
Thank you! Hope you’re having fun with it.
Hi, who was the original drummer that appears in the first dvd ?
Not sure which one you're talking about. If it's the live show, then it's probably Gilles St-Amand Jr.
Beautiful electric piano and groovy playing. Your dynamics really sell it.
Great job man!!! Chic corea is serious business
I've seen a lot of Wurlitzers, and I own a 206 myself..... but what is this unique gem? Did you build an entire custom case for a Wurlitzer action, or did you start with some rare model and customize it?
Thanks Adam. This is a 140-B - customized by cvkeyboards.com. If you look them up you'll be able to see the cosmetic difference between a stock instrument and mine. Also, I have a MIDI kit installed so it sends MIDI OUT.
Coolest Wurli ever!!
should make a track from this
No one: The audio: I AM AN ELEPHANT HAAAAMM
That was a deeply moving tribute, and a story that needs to be told.
Fantastic
Are you using a plugin other than zebra2?
No. That was all Zebra.
Love your music Armen. I added your music on my children’s movie videos I made back in 2002 when I adopted them both from Yerevan. Perfect sounds.
Thank you Thomas! That's beautiful.
Dynamite!!
