Excellent Video. Straight to the point. Worthwhile information. Great examples. Keep up the great work.

Me, my Aunt Rochelle, & Cousin Abby are getting this Keytar cause it's super easy to carry.

[@danielhekkelman1337]

what other equipments do i have to buy if i want one of these to make it work

[@sfpratt1954]

It has 5 pin midi to connect to any sound module. Or you need a laptop with a DAW (Garage Band, Logic, ProTools, Ableton, MOTU ...)

[@ianmcintosh8307]

​@@sfpratt1954so you couldn't just hook it up to an amp any get a similar experience?

[@alexskibicki2262]

Awesome clip, Ted and kel 😎 🎹 I’ve been checking out this keytar for quite some time. I’ve been thinking about purchasing this one. Especially since my brother owned a couple keytars himself

[@SatyaSubhajit]

Amazing tips, thank you. Quick question, how can I assign the ribbon / pitch bender and other controls while connecting the Vortex with a Motif XS Synth using USB Host MIDI Interface?

[@ciqala.records]

Thanks man for sharing this. Awesome

[@kitko33]

I need a midi controller. I'm a guitar player. So guess I really need this one :D

[@OfficialRainsynth]

[@dbwastooshort]

[@klfighter]

hi, can keystar have a fiew rythms drums, or just sound keyboard ?, thank

[@bobcorn]

Great video - I would like to know how the drumpads are about beatmaking and sampling. Did you try them things out yet? Like Beat making or fingerdrumming? Thanks alot!

[@TedandKel]

Thanks, man! Yea it works well for finger drumming or beat making. Just set it in your DAW :)

[@ohpegi]

Great review!!!!

[@TedandKel]

Thank you very much, Page! Stay tuned next week and we'll upload a new cover and tutorial :)

[@andrewsissons808]

On the keytar is there any way to change the sounds coming from the keys or can you only do tat on the computer? Most keyboards would have presets that allow you to change the sounds of it.

[@TedandKel]

Hey! You are right some keytars have their own internal presets that you can set from the keytar itself. Although, this keytar is a midi controller so the sound can only be edited in your computer. It does not have it's own sounds built in. You can however edit your sounds in the computer using they keytar if you map the sliders on your DAW. :D

[@StarionVR]

Do you need to connect a pc to it?

[@MangKres]

napasubscribe ako dun sa "ano nga ba ang ribbon". 😂

[@HectorLopez-fm5bu]

COMO SE CONFIGURA LA CINTA?

[@alexisriveros5561]

Greetings from Chile ... Could you tell me if vortex 2 is stable? ... I mean ... Are the notes hanging? I want to buy one for live .... Thank you

[@joelsuresh7158]

Am tired of note hanging issue

[@pauljmorton]

Oh, they're drumpads. I was hoping that they would be buttons that I can use to instantly change instruments in the DAW. I wonder how I could do that.

[@gkiss2030]

Did you figure it out later?

[@RedFoxStudio]

Can you suggest me any other keytar in 15k-30k range in 2021

[@maestro8002]

That's an amazing controller Good video 👍

[@sammist_sounds]

Please which App did you used

[@songsfastofficial6494]

Please give more information about same letter

[@tokehlledigcramer4783]

If it's plugged into a pc with the usb cable. Will the sound then come from the pc or the keytar? And do you need speakers?

[@TedandKel]

The sound will come out of your PC Speakers. The Keytar does not have a built-in speaker. So yes you need a speaker :) Unless you're satisfied with your PC's speakers or your laptop's built-in speakers.

[@tokehlledigcramer4783]

Okay :) Thanks a lot

[@tokehlledigcramer4783]

Quick question. If you plug in a headset to the pc. Will the sound then come out of the headset?

[@TedandKel]

@@tokehlledigcramer4783 You can plug the headset to your laptop 🙂 but you can't plug it directly to your keytar.

[@tokehlledigcramer4783]

@@TedandKel thank you so much😊 Have a good one😁

[@vicoycoytv6516]

Lodi pa review naman ng yamaha Sonogenic keytar

[@joel3730]

Does this plug into an amp?

[@TedandKel]

Hi Joel! No, it doesn't plug into an amp because it's a midi controller so you will need a laptop or an analog synth. We have a video on how to set it up through a midi controller. Here's the link 🙂 kzbin.info/www/bejne/e56npYpqbcSpfZY If you want to use an amp, you need to connect the keytar to the laptop/analog synth then connect that to the amp. Hope this helps! 😀

[@nigelrichardson2309]

It will connect to any midi enabled device it doesn't have to be "analogue" 👍

[@cark1389]

Amazing

“Being humble does not mean that you are depressed, but that you are humbling yourself for the sake of others. You reduce yourself from your original position just to bless somebody else. That’s not easy, when the flesh is full of pride, because pride desires promotion, to be seen, and to show off. Humility is the opposite. Humility teaches you to voluntarily abase yourself.” ~David E. Taylor~ “...he that shall humble himself shall be exalted” (Matthew 23:12)

[@activeseasons]

"It only takes one sleepless night for the king to find you.. 'On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him. And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him,' (Esther 6:1-4). Never put more confidence in the limited power of your position, just because your proximity is close to the one with full power.. Many people are walking in close proximity to their leader or other people God has called, but they are not in agreement with God for their life, purpose, and destiny. These same people today have not learned from Haman's arrogance concerning Mordecai, but don't fret saints, God will not let the plans of the wicked trump His plans for you!! 'And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath,' (Esther 3:5). Mordecai was submitted to God, no matter what! He did the right thing before God even if he put his natural life in jeopardy with man. Friends, some of you are wondering when you will be justified in situations where you have been accused or hated for no reason.. Stay faithful to God because His faithfulness never fails. It only takes one sleepless night for Him to get the attention of the people who will need to be awakened on your behalf.. EXPECT IT..!!" ~David E. Taylor~

"Women of Purpose, The Joy of the Lord is Your Strength!! '... for the joy of the LORD is your strength,' (Nehemiah 8:10). The Lord's joy is not an expression or manifestation based on your current situation or circumstances. It doesn't matter who likes you or who doesn't. The joy of the Lord is an established promise that is available to you at ALL times, because God made a covenant with you that He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you! 'and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee,' (Hebrews 13:5). Don't be swayed by the condemnation that looms over the world, no matter what mistakes you may have made, the truth is, God's joy is your constant strength to overcome and to walk into the future with assurance that you are never alone and the Blood of Jesus has already redeemed you from all shame.. REJOICE..!" ~David E. Taylor~

[@activeseasons]

"Have you found yourself feeling down, out, or not worthy of what God has already freely given you? The devil wants to find every area of your life that lacks God's joy and try to take you to a place that remembers your pain, fear, and depression.. I am here to remind you that the joy of the Lord is your strength! Daughters, delight yourself in the Lord and remember there are no circumstances you face that can prevent His joy from breaking through into every situation you encounter!! '... for the joy of the Lord is your strength,' (Nehemiah 8:10). God has given you His divine power over the enemy - and it is His JOY that NEVER runs out! Stand on the Word of God, walk in His truth, and know you are destined for greatness!!" ~David E. Taylor~

"Daughters of Destiny, It's time to CARE again!! I don't mean for you to take on cares that Jesus told you to cast on Him, I mean to really have compassion and to genuinely care about and love yourself & others.. I know many of you have endured some painful things, but no matter what or who it is that has caused you to stop caring, God says, ‘LET GO.. holding on to the pain is preventing your growth in Me! It's preventing you from walking into the fulness of your divine destiny, and it's preventing My love from being expressed through you to the people you are supposed to reach for Me!' 'And of some have compassion, making a difference,' (Jude 1:22). Giving up prevents you from fulfilling all God designed and purposed you to execute.. You are more than a conqueror, so be compassionate, and courageously choose to care, because love never fails and God's love will surely never fail you..!" ~David E. Taylor~

[@activeseasons]

"Contrary to today's popular opinion and belief, love was never meant to come and go, because love IS!! Unfortunately, people tend to base love on emotions and feelings rather than it being a way of life.. Mostly because their hearts are conditioned by people and not by God. See, we can't escape God's love... no matter what good or bad thing we say or do. People justify escaping the responsibility of love because of the pain they feel. No matter how badly someone hurts you, you can't let that pain influence your love. My friend, I know that is not an easy thing to do, according to your flesh, but with God and only with God it is possible! '... God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him,' (1 John 4:16). Most people have never really experienced the love of God for themselves in an up close and personal way, because they are still clinging to religion and are void of relationship. Religion isn't love, God is!! Religion fails, God doesn't!! Religion keeps score of your rights and wrongs, but love redeems you from them! Your flesh will convince you that if you are hurting it is only 'right' to hurt others.. but that is not God's heart or His way. It's not cliche to say... LOVE NEVER FAILS... it's the absolute truth!! God is love and He never fails. '... Charity never faileth' (1 Corinthians 13:8) 'And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity,' (1 Corinthians 13:13). Remember, you can only give what you have... Precious ones, surrender your pain and your hurt and receive God's unfailing love today... and start giving it away! I can assure you that when you do you will know love like you never have known HIM before and you will start seeing pain defeated by His Amazing LOVE..!!" ~David E. Taylor~
