Here is a video of veterans tearing down the barricades at the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. on October 13, 2013, which is set to a soundtrack recorded entirely on the Oasys.

My 16-year-old son plays bass in a rock band. In addition to drums, there is a shredding lead guitarist and a rhythm guitar/lead vocalist. The band plays a respectable cover of YYZ by Rush, as well as several songs from the Flying Colors album released this year. They currently use no synths, but I ...

So what explains the stiff price tag, I wonder.

Has anyone tried out a Yamaha Tyros 4? If so, how does it compare to the Oasys?

At $5299, is it substantially better than a Korg Kronos?

Are you located in the United States?

Scroll to the bottom of the page: http://www.gregorysidakmusic.com/component,8/action,show_content/id,8/album_id,8/ The first one is slow and minimal: "The Smoke That Rises from the Pipes of Lonely Men in Shirt-Sleeves, Leaning ...

Here is a new recording on the Oasys, inspired by a line from Eliot: "I Have Measured Out My Life with Coffee Spoons." I changed the arrangement quite a lot before settling on this one, which is intended to sound purely acoustic and intentionally minimal. The Oasys is such a fountain of great sounds ...

This video of the aftermath of the 1956 uprising on YouTube is, coincidentally, almost exactly the same length as the music. If you play the video simultaneously with the music, you will experience the latter as a soundtrack.

An orchestral piece. Composed a year ago; fixed up today. All Oasys, nothing external.

God Bless Hungary.

CF,

I like the lead guitar tone a lot. Is that Oasys guitar or real guitar? If it is O guitar, what is your program and your effects loop? It sounds cleaner than any of the factory guitar sounds on the O.

Great work.

Thanks very much. Regarding the drums, I use multiple kits with different patterns. Sometimes, I set the pan pot for one kit all the way to the left so that the signal is constantly changing to different positions in the acoustic space. If you are using toms, this technique can create the impression ...
