So to be clear. The drums and bass arrangement you pre-programmed that using MOR and what you were playing live in the video was the guitar overdubs...is that correct? Sounds great and nice performance BTW. There are so many ways to program in a DAW that sometimes it's nice to get an idea of the entire process especially now that interfaces like Kontakt, Play and several others have changed the workflow. The same way general midi did. A grouping interface inside a daw.
Thanks Tom for appreciating! Only the acoustic guitar in the middle of demo is programmed on the backing track, all other guitars are played live by me as you can watch in the video .. ;-) Yes, today is very quick, easy and cool to work on a DAW with such amazing software and plugins! Cheers!
It would help so much if I has actually read the text you overlayed in the beginning of the video (duh me) You had the drums and bass already sequenced (or recorded) in a DAW. Thanks!
I thought to have replied to this question, sorry if I did not by now.. I confirm, yes it's the Acoustic Guitar strumming included in Ministry of Rock.
There is no one yet that has shown me Ministry of Rock 1 or 2 on a keytar. I'm about to buy it but since you are a major keytar player as well, could you tell me how well it plays and bends on a keytar?
Hello! Well, you can play it excellently on Keytar too, using the pitch-bend (ribbon bar) with a very nice and fine control to play bending and vibrato. The modulation bar is a cool volume control to change sound on the fly from distorted to crunch and clean and back.
Awesome, you are still active. Do you still give lessons for average persons to become better? (I did buy the MOR2 because I've been looking at MOR for years now. I got a sh!tty tax of 42 USD over that though. Almost didn't want to buy it because of money shortage) It's still downloading and it asks me for some location but there is nothing to choose from, weird... (MOR program) Let me know...
Yes sure .. still rockin some music! ;-) Well, I do understand, sometime that software stuff makes us crazy but then it helps us a lot on making music! I had to pause online lessons in the last couple of years since overloaded with standard in-place lessons. Doing couple Skype lessons in a month for some longtime students... Don't know exactly what kind of lessons you're looking for, just let me know in case I can do something for you...
I once picked up some of those diminished chords or something. The kind I think only 4 exist of, something like that. Because I have a decent feeling about playing guitar on the keyboard but I never really soloed a lot in my life only on the same old E minor line and I'm tired of doing the same stuff. Maybe you've got some vid out there you can paste me or I don't know something of beginner intermediate stuff. I've been practicing: When the Water breaks from Liquid Tension but I'm only getting up to the part where he starts to play really fast. I want to be able to do those but before my slider broke down from the AX-Synth I found some sheets about that song and was able to slowly read the notes although it was till very hard. Yesterday I played most of the stuff from: Guns and Roses, Sweet Child. That was easier than I thought. So, I don't think I can follow the stuff in Skype yet. The Roland X8 that I sold has heavy keys that make me play very nice and sensitive, well in the rhythm but it slowed down my ability to solo fast. So with these cheap keyboards I am finally able to play faster.
Well, I understand what you mean. Not all type of chords are possible on MOR. Concerning soloing, well the slider is very important. Concerning reading, you get faster only by reading more and more... The Ax-Synth is a good keytar, there are couple good leads if I remember good (I tried it once in a music store, but I prefer my AX1) and you can solo with that lead sounds too.
I bought MOR2 but I am feeling horrible about it. It really doesn't bend like a guitar should playing it live on a keytar and I'm missing all these extra things that a guitar does like the squeaky sounds and stuff :\
Uhm, I'm sorry to hear that, I don't have MOR2 but, as you can watch in this demo, on MOR I played lot of realistic guitar sounds and fx... including bending and vibrato. It's strange that those things are missing in MOR2... did you check some tutorials and/or demos by EastWest?
Every time someone says "this doesn't sound real", I think: have you heard modern metal? Rock and metal are getting so horrendously overproduced that frankly they might as well be entirely synthesised. E.g. Periphery (who I do quite like, but it's like listening to techno at this point).
awesome master you are my idol in guitar rock synth emulation
Loving the software. Mistheria any chance you'll actually put up some tutorials as to how you got the sounds to work the way you wanted to

Thank you for posting this :)
Fantastic
thats bad ass.
at 1:19 is that acoustic guitar strumming from Ministry of rock or a real guitar strumming.
I think it is the VST.
I bought MOR2 but I am feeling horrible about it. It really doesn't bend like a guitar should playing it live on a keytar and I'm missing all these extra things that a guitar does like the squeaky sounds and stuff :\

Very little to find out there, but it worked out now.
I hope to see some keytar lessons from you in the future! #8)
this would have been awesome in 1997
wow, the most enthusiastic audience ever...
Sounds good to someone who doesn't play guitar.
lol, looks like he's auditioning for a band.
