Song of the Ancients - NieR (15 Nightmares & Arrange Tracks / piano)

[@domodepiano]

this arrangement has some deceptively difficult places littered throughout especially the improvisatory like passage work, you did a pretty phenomenal job on this, working on this myself on and off and i think this is one of the finest versions I've seen/heard to date. kudos!

[@jeremyngpiano]

This is so beautiful and you play it so well as usual. I love your phrasing, it's amazing.

[@jeremyngpiano]

I love this so much. I must have played it at least 20 times already.

[@jeremyngpiano]

I'm still so mesmerized by this today... So good.

So nice, high feeling and performance. Thank you dear.

[@0316haze]

You play so well! I love how I can feel the emotions of the song from how you play it. Hopefully I'll get there someday !

[@hazehaze7820]

So beautiful

[@Arrow9100kj]

A wonderful performance! Im so glad someone finally managed to learn and upload this beauty. This piece throws a variety of triplets and has a somewhat loose, improvisatory LH accompaniment and requires some really nimble fingerwork in some section. I can't applaud this performance any more than I have. Just amazing!

[@FrankCGraves]

I just purchased the CFX myself and was stunned by the sound; especially the pure and long sustain. I made an almost 5 minute recording of my first playing on an inexpensive DGX-650 and was absolutely in heaven with just the full classic default. I looked at your settings with interest. I noticed you increased dynamic range to 90% and altered the volume curve slightly. Also I think you mixed mics evenly along with a small amount of sympathetic resonance. I have not tried reverb yet. I need a better set of headphones I think before I make adjustments. I prefer a partially open back like the AKG540 and I’m using a $15 Pair right now. Thanks for sharing your settings. What was your “base” sample set? I think Classic is best - at least initial assessment. I need to get soft pedal set up right on my DGX-650 as I have the pedal board but they are not assigned to all the right control values. Thanks for sharing your info ~~ Frank - I did a L and S.

Since when did you start playing the piano?

[@rach3master]

About 20 years ago.

[@pancakemaster4384]

@@rach3master hahaha I'm getting there too. Not old enough yet

[@JSRepo]

What parts in particular did you change from the last upload?

[@rach3master]

Random measures scattered throughout the piece that were bugging me. So minor though you probably can't even tell the difference.

[@mangodsky2809]

amazing :) could you share your CFX - settings with me? I have the same software, but I don't get it to sound as good

[@rach3master]

I'm using Classic (Full) and the Traditional Symphonic Concert Hall impulse reverb setting with all 4 knobs at 1 o'clock for additional reverb. I also added a sliver of Sympathetic/Sustain Resonance and eliminated the Pedal Noise. Room/Release Decay is maxed out. For this piece specifically I used a Closed Lid for a more muffled sound.

[@mangodsky2809]

thank you :)
