Overhead cam 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥 I’ve been waiting for this news since the first day I watched your channel!

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Hahaha. The hardware I need to make this happen has been shipped, so it will happen soon

[@michaelekwulugo8659]

@@SamTheBeardGuy Man I’m so Excited! Some of the movements in your playing make me have to grab my head, walk around the room and cool off before I can carry on watching 🤣🤣🤣 Now by God’s grace I’ll be able to see some of what you’re doing 🔥🔥🔥

[@pianooke]

Thanks for the visual keyboard. It is the best way to learn.

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Thanks!

[@charliecharter6452]

This is currently my favorite channel man. I'm about to go to school for jazz and this just makes me want to get better every day. Sick stuff

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

thank you!!

[@MrHammerBurger]

Thank you for this visual keyboard ! Its helping alot ! As always great video.

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Thank you!

[@AnthonyCollierMusic]

I know chordie cost but it's honestly the best thing if you're going to display keys. Since it allows us to also see the chord names and such But thank you for even attempting to display keys ✊🏾

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

I've found those chord things aren't great. Sometimes they're just way off. But I can check it out, never checked out chordie.

[@AnthonyCollierMusic]

@@SamTheBeardGuy I feel you and that's true. But I think you'll be pleased with chordie lol it's pretty accurate. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKbSlXluetqVo8U kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4PYgntuftiqnZo

[@troakle7787]

when i learned about tritone subs i learned how they share a 3 and 7 but reversed which makes the resolution very similar. great video!

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

yep! thanks for watching.

[@notjaepart2]

a midiculous or chordie app would be cool to so we can see the chord names and stuff like that

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Sick I’ll check those apps out.

[@snarf1504]

Omg visual keyboard yay!

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Yep!

[@snarf1504]

@@SamTheBeardGuy Thank you so much, I can (attempt) to play along better now :D

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

@@snarf1504 no problem!

[@alvaro.2c]

Phenomenal video! Is it just me or when you hit the keys harder we can pick up the sound of your monitors (or something else maybe, I don't know) doubling the sound?

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Yeah that was a mistake on my end. I tried to cut out as much of that as I could. Thanks for watching!

@@SamTheBeardGuy No big deal! Just wanted to confirm I wasn't imagining it haha. Looking forward to those overhead shots!

[@westhalltv6412]

As cool as overhead cams are, I will definitely miss out on the expressions we get to see from this camera angle. Also feels more personal than other piano channels in my opinion!

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Thank you!!

[@bradyhayden]

One thing you could do is have the overhead shot segmented to the side right above/below your synthesia program, since people really only want it to see hand position with the overhead. Or you could have a slightly wider focal length on your main camera shot so you can squeeze the overhead shot at the bottom of the video? Love the content man! Always wildly impressed with your mad chops.

[@hackcheck7299]

Haha, nice intro xD Thanks for the tutorials!

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Thanks for watching!

[@EnzanHibiki]

Your improvisation over those chords is so melodic!! How do you do it

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Hahaha, just lots of practice

[@self4autism333]

Thanks for the vid, great ideas i never seen before. I will try to work out the scales used by slowing down playback because your melodic stuff was great too. Btw i think the piano was cliping the signal or just a particular sample? Thanks again.

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

Thank you! It's possible haha, it happens.

[@yungifez]

Nice man

Thanks, very educational, but too much noodling.

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

bad habit haha

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

What do you do to spice up your playing?

[@kofimanu9306]

how do you build those bebop lines in your right hand?

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

transcribing!!

[@Satsujiki]

M-Audio Hammer88 vs Studio Logic SL88 vs Korg D1. Wich one would you recommend? Thanks!

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

In order best to worst, maudio, korg, studiologic.

[@Satsujiki]

@@SamTheBeardGuy Thank you so much. Would you say the Hammer88 and the SL88 are very far appart in terms of keybed feels? I'm about to buy the Hammer88 and I am scared to regret. Would I miss a lot for the few hundreds dollars difference? Thanks!

[@SamTheBeardGuy]

@@Satsujiki They couldn't be more different. I don't think you'll regret the Hammer88. You can find article after article saying it's one of the best feeling keyboards out there.
