We often wonder what are the best sound library for our keyboards, in particular orchestral ones.
Here is an example from one of our greatest musical genius of our times : Vangelis.

First, have a look at this extraordinary and unique machine. Then listen to the sounds getting out of it !




Music from 10:00 to 16:10

The whole video, or just the segment in the studio? A precise explanation would be quite a task.

This link may help:

http://www.elsew.com/data/synths.htm

And here, in the section entitled "Composing and Performing in real Time":

http://www.nemostudios.co.uk/nemo/tour/recording/recording_br.htm

Also read the comments section of this video:

It will be 50$. Razz

20 years ago, I've done a few Vangelis solo gigs, which back then covered most of his albums from Earth to Oceanic (of course, without a Kronos or software synths). It was a lot of work to program and design. Nowadays, when I have some free time (which is rare), I sometimes like to program some of his most remarkable sounds on my K2.

Thank you very much voip for links. From third video (which is part of interview), I can't conclude what kind of synth it is?
Obviously something which is made for Vangelis (some special gear).
Arsenal of instruments used by Vangelis is more than impressive.
Wish you best.
