Behind the synth showcases the people bringing you Yamaha synthesizers. In this episode: Blake and Nate take a closer look at Motion Control. Motion Control enables expressive sound through sophisticated dynamic control. This control can be manual through the Super Knob, assignable, foot controllers and more or automatic using the Motion Sequencer and Envelope Follower. We’ll explore how this works and how Motion Control adds unique dynamic expression to Performances.

BTS062: Motion Control

"Blue Bossa" is an instrumental jazz composition by Kenny Dorham. It was introduced on Joe Henderson's 1963 album "Page One".

This started out as an exercise in using voice leading in bass lines, but I ended up playing the melody and comping through the bossa.

Take the A Train

Fan of jazz fusion since high school. I’m digging into learning from jazz standards and building that foundation. I’m creating sometimes and learning from (listening to) others more often. I have a small network of players I’ve collaborated with loosely but looking to expand that network.
