Yamaha P-125 Piano

For my birthday, I've got a new digital piano, a Yamaha P-125, to replace my Yamaha PSR-E333 keyboard.

I like it because it has a 'piano feel'. For instance, the keys are weighted and cover a full octave span.

The speakers are better as well - plus there's four of them!

It also has a variety of reverbs.

One drawback over a keyboard is that it doesn't have the vast range of voices, but the ones it does have are really good.

Thunderbirds Are Finished!

This is the (finished!) version of my Thunderbirds Project.

I did the outro's drum roll and fanfare parts on my Yamaha keyboard; then I did the explosions using the airplane and drumulele sounds on my home-coded synthesiser. I tweaked the track volume and panning levels in Audacity.

For the accompanying image I turned myself into a Thunderbird complete with 'Thunderbird eyebrows'!

Here it is! FAB!
