6:55 What do the pedals on a piano do? | Cunningham Piano Company, Philadelphia, King of Prussia, PA

What do the pedals on a piano do? | Cunningham Piano Company, Philadelphia, King of Prussia, PA

Learn more about pianos at http://cunninghampiano.com
Pianos, keyboards and digital pianos can have one to three foot pedals that perform various musical functions. The most important pedal is the Damper or Sustain pedal, usually found on the furthest right on acoustic instruments, and the only one for single pedal keyboards. The Damper/Sustain pedal controls how long the notes can be heard after playing them. The second most important pedal is the Soft pedal, otherwise known as the Una Corda. This controls how soft the piano sounds, and is usually the pedal furthest to the left on acoustic pianos. The third pedal — usually the middle one — varies in function, depending on the type of piano. On grand pianos, the middle pedal is known as a Sostenuto pedal. This pedal only holds notes that have been "locked" with the fingers, keeping the other notes free to be controlled by the other pedals or with the fingers alone. On upright pianos, the middle pedal is usually the practice pedal, moving a piece of felt between the hammers and strings to produce a muted sound, perfect for keeping the piano quiet and not disturbing others.

Land of the Rising Sound | A Roland Retrospective

Land of the Rising Sound: A Roland Retrospective.

The story of Roland is one of the most expansive and influential in the world of music technology. This feature length documentary sets out to tell it through their iconic inventions.

General Thanks:

First of all, a huge and heartfelt thank you to some anonymous synth experts who not only leant me a jaw dropping array of rare equipment, but who also gave up time from their busy schedules to show me how to use it and who even helped record it on location. I owe you a debt of gratitude, but the entire community at large does too. Thank you!

I also need to thank Gordon Reid for answering my tedious questions and for helping with the explanations of some trickier technical aspects. Furthermore, both Gordon and Sound on Sound need crediting for having already gone the whole 9-yards on the subject:

9:30 A Brief Synth Comparison - Novation Peak / Roland JD-XA / Behringer DeepMind / Model D

A Brief Synth Comparison - Novation Peak / Roland JD-XA / Behringer DeepMind / Model D

I have been comparing these synthesizers recently, and one comparison I performed was the recreation of a simple analogue patch. I thought it might be interesting to upload the results of this comparison in a video, nothing conclusive of course as there are numerous aspects to a synth and not just simple patch creation so possible there will be a few more videos to follow this one! ; )
