Keyboard rig upgrade

[Symphony]

Hey guys

I'm often asked about what gear I'm using and seeing as we had a fairly quiet Christmas, I took the plunge on New Year's Eve and ordered a new toy

Should sit very nicely at the head of a Trinity that will be completed by the ever faithful Korg Triton Extreme and the Nord Lead 3

Only downside.....gotta wait 2 weeks for delivery lol!

Holy hell, that's a beastly machine! What an upgrade! I have the Krome and it's unbelievable. I can only imagine what THAT is like. Should look mighty fine on stage

 

[Symphony]

Can't wait dude! Think I'll need to get to the gym just to be able to carry the damn thing lol!

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

Well long time no see!

And he's back with presents for us all!

I'll take mine in black

Hope you hand a blinding Christmas and New Year Steve!

 

[Symphony]

Yep....I'm back fella Nice quiet Christmas and New Year. Was on call with work for most of it but luckily was quiet there also. Apparently my colleague who then took over got hammered pretty much 24/7! My luck was in there haha!

Bloody Korg.......Kronos 2 delayed til April ffs

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

April 1st?



I bet they send you a bassoon for a larf

 

[1928]

LOL Dom! That stinks, Steve. Must see pictures of the shiny new toy when it comes

 

[Symphony]

Probably Dom...and no prizes for guessing where that bassoon would be shoved lol!

 

[Symphony]

Korg have gone up in my estimation again and......today is new keyboard day Hallelujah!

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

Woohoo! Enjoy it dude! What will you be shredding on it?

 

[Symphony]

Well I tell you one thing....this beast plus case is a two man lift! What a monster lol! Not had much time to check it out as yet with EC shows looming large and sounds programmed in older keyboards

 

[Symphony]

Michael.......I've explored the piano and lead sounds so far and some of it is actually jaw dropping. There's a particularly cool Japanese Grand Piano created to the exact specifications of a certain Mr Rudess.......gonna be weeks of exploration here I think

 

[1928]

WOW! No kidding? That's so cool! How are the keys, fully weighted or no? My Krome has a couple fantastic sounding pianos and some wonderful leads but I bet they pale compared to that beast. The touch screen looks gorgeous too!
