Replying to Comments from our Yamaha Montage 7 Video! | Mike Patrick Q&A

[@scothinckley]

Get used to it, Mike. We love you.

[@andertonsfan3144]

Love this format - Mike and Jack are made for each other... MORE PLEASE

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

Plenty more on the way don't worry! 🤘

[@darrickkeels6387]

Saw the name Mike Patrick and hit "like" before even watching the video. I have already implemented his layering techniques on my Montage. I have since watched all of his Yamaha performance content I could find on KZbin.

[@elmehdioubouhouch]

i love ure comparisons brother always waiting for ure videos before making a decision i hope u do a video about keybad action on montage vs fantom what is feels better for piano

[@stevec.1802]

Mike's harmonized melodies improvised on the fly are very crafty. Love Mike's talent and delivery.

[@peterwilson69]

You guys have an awesome dynamic - it works really really well. Love that Jack asks "around" the questions to get to the root of the answers. Mike is a pleasure to listen too, amazing.

[@davidf8749]

Jack and Mike - great combo. I don't even play keyboards but these are essential viewing. :)

[@benhoodmusic2283]

I Second that

[@DJFITME]

Cant wait for more vids with mike!

[@cremist2317]

These guys are the best. Mike... you have no idea, how much you are helping us "montage users" learn our instrument. It's such a treat that you're even, answering questions as well.

[@stulebeau7293]

Love you guys - thanks so much for answering my question Mike and Jack!!

[@Tadaia]

I searched thru these vids just to find this guy Mike. Thank you!! Love Mike!

[@OptimaMrL]

I came here to listen to Montage questions, I ended up with a music lesson. Love it!! Bless you.

[@alexpaterson4096]

Just to add on first answer on expression pedal just on strings.. Plugging the Fc-7 in to the foot controller 2 port is set by default to control the super knob via the pedal. So depending on needs there are several ways if you need more assignable controls. And also you can always have two FC-7s :-)

[@cds8137]

These videos are absolutely superb. Jack you are always such a top chap, with Mike and also Luke from Korg. I love the Orchestral phrasing from Mike. Some of the most definitive Music Bro videos on You tube. I have the Modx and this does inspire me. Please keep up the good work...I'm Elektron, Korg, Roland too. Andertons seem to cover all. Cheers.

[@tommullen1109]

Simply great! Thanx. More please...

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

Supper skills behind the keys there. It's cool that Yamaha put out the Montage and kept cost in mind and made Mod X for those on a budget.

[@Fuego.017]

We would love another video with mike!

[@Namespilot]

Thank you for bring Mike onto this channel, and for sharing this with me.

[@strongchord4384]

Great to hear musicians talking about things decent musicians will recognise. In the end that’s all that matters - not whether that flashy widget does this or that. Analysing or as it’s called these days ‘deconstructing’ chord sequences etc very welcome.

[@FranciscoDiazYules]

Yamaha Montage and Mike Patrcik... the best cocktail!

[@stevebeeston8749]

Excellent videos chaps...

[@okay1904]

Very nice videos. Hopefully one day we'll see Jack and Mike together on stage somewhere. I was blessed by these videos - Mike Patrick is a great musical mind. Definitely one to watch, great mind. I never liked the Montage, but this gentleman uses it effectively. The answer to this amazing sound is polyphony, learning how to play polyphonically and use the correct inversions to highlight the leading melody. Takes some homework, but sounds amazing. Good one Mike....

[@furiobisotti8150]

He is so good because he plays it simply. High quality. Obviously I got a Montage and obviously I am not able to play 5% of what he plays...

[@renatogalesi7219]

Ditto, but I'd say my number is more like 4%.

[@spydestroyer]

Wow !!!! c'est époustouflant tellement ca sonne la tonne de brique . Translated from Quebec french to ==> Wow !!!! It's unbelievable how good it sounds really !

[@joltonrodrigues539]

Want more of Mike with the yamaha montage

[@brianlee6309]

Ok, I've been meaning to ask, as someone who keeps coming back to these videos in order to listen to y'alls playing... what genre of music should I look up to find people who play like you? Who do I have to listen to learn how to play like you? What are the chords/techniques that I have to practice to sound like you?

[@musikman337]

Glenn gibson, quennel gaskin, kevin powell, mike bereal, jospeh pryor, matt simmons

[@1975Stevo]

Ha! i rang Andertons earlier whilst you were probably uploading this latest video and was raving about it !! was wowed by the previous and never paid attention to the Yamaha Montage. Seen previous comments and wondering whether going with Montage or Modx. Given what you've played, can you achieve this on the Modx with the string expression etc ? Same key action on both models? Thanks . Excellent vid as always guys.

[@LemonJelly360]

In addition to Mr Williams and Mr Zimmer, I highly recommend Michael Giacchino's scores. A personal favourite of mine is the Super 8 Suite, it is just exceptional.

[@mikepatrickmusic]

I'm going to look him up LemonJ, thank you!

[@LemonJelly360]

@@mikepatrickmusic Great. I hope you find something you like. Thanks for the videos so far with Jack, they are fantastic.

[@misterpigman]

I just love Michael Giacchino's music. Especially Medal of Honor Allied Assault theme.

[@LemonJelly360]

@@misterpigman You may want to listen to the new Medal of Honor - Above and Beyond soundtrack that he released in December. The main theme is fantastic, as is the second track - Juliette’s Theme.

[@misterpigman]

@@LemonJelly360 siiick!! Definitely will look it up. What are your thoughts if he would be in Masterclass?

[@Андрей-ш8с4с]

Guys, is there will be some review of new fp-30,60,90X ? Maybe some comparison with the old ones?

[@jackduxbury1632]

Good idea on camparing with the old ones! As soon as they come in I'm sure we'll do a vid X

[@Bartolomeusable]

Mike on regular basis please!!

[@nattymc]

absolute fire. nothing more to say 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@pw4677]

Would love more information on how to mix the voices and the levels to blend them so beautifully. I have the Montage 8. Please keep the insider tips coming 😁

[@NinoNiemanThe1st]

4:57 - Jack that was my favorite part of the melody too. But alas just a testament to Mike's skill, not something written down, oh well!

[@JanWillemBoelens]

Mike should have a KZbin channel.

[@descontrolador]

I wish you could share a tutorial showing the melody and harmony Mike used in his beautiful (and very successful) original video 🙂

[@joshuakwao1]

First heard you on a Nord video , were you signed to them and left?

[@mikepatrickmusic]

Yeah. I still love Nord though

[@joshuakwao1]

@@mikepatrickmusic Okay. Wish you all the best in your endeavours. A big fan from Ghana 🇬🇭

[@DojoOfCool]

Michael have you done any film scoring, you seem to have the ear for it.

[@glardyschurer]

What was the electric guitar patch he was playing from the previous video? Great content I really learn a lot from his playing 🙏🏾

[@tiosaintbanks]

When Mike plays a melody, he's flipping the third intervals and making it it a sixth which makes the melody bigger.

[@tiosaintbanks]

Sorry...typo. making it "into" a sixth which makes the melody bigger. Love the videos you two gents present. Keep it going! Thanx.

[@abrahamsoto6397]

Hopefully I can get a response from you guys. I just got myself a montage 7 and I need professional guidance. You guys were my first choice

[@ImOluwatosin]

Thank you for this video. I came across this video and ordered my FC7 pedal because I love how you use it. How can I adjust the different volume for various parts and instruments or voices I choose? For example, I want the volume pedal to adjust my strings and not the piano . Kindly help. Thank you

[@AntonyBailey77]

the end of that phrase - the section you didnt focus on - is very similar to a part of somehwere over the rainbow...

[@jackduxbury1632]

Good point Monsieur Bailey- sending a big digital hug 🤗

[@cds8137]

One question if I may, when you play the Home alone tune on the montage video (13m 40s), what is the patch or sounds that you play? Sounds like a flute patch? Thank you in advance.

[@misterpigman]

Between the Montage 7 and 8, which would you go to Mike?

[@samuelmaylor6634]

[@obinemechinedu315]

I need those outro chords Mike

[@denneberg]

Excellent. Tnx. Maybe Ennio morricone for the third film music?

[@theclaverman]

Hi Jack (and everybody else for that sake). I just want you to know that these videos from Andertons has been an big inspiration for me as a musician, and because of channels like this (among others of course)and guys like you I yesterday took the plunge and released my first ever music-video on youtube (performed on a Nord). The video quality is probably not perfect(yet) but eventually we'll getting there:-) Check it out : kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5SulYGCZbCEh5Y

Mike can I buy you a car so that you can stay longer with Jack? Because these short videos are purely unacceptable. You both are stellar.

Jack he's not thinking about it. Someone once asked does Cory Henry think about what he improvises. Simple answer is he doesn't, it's muscle memory.
