TGX-99 :: YAMAHA SY-9977 Virtual Sample Library

Released in 1991 this one is probably our second favorite synthesizer next to the EX5. The thing that made this synth amazing was it's AFM (Advanced FM Technology). Not only could it read the DX7 patches, but the enhanced AFM allowed for even better FM EPs with a ton of expression. The other thing you will recognize from this synth is it's incredible A/D converters which really make the synthesizer sound warm and phat. You can still hear the digital edge, but it's mixed with a warm analog tone that made all of the patches just sound professional and organic. This is what people lover about our libraries: We are able to capture the pure essence of the original hardware as it relates to sound and "feeling," and this library is no different.

The Yamaha SY and Roland JV lines of synths are vastly underrated. Phenomenal machines whose preset banks still show up from time to time in music. There's something very rich about the sounds. The acoustic instrument sounds aren't realistic but are pretty close and distinctive in their own right. The synthesized sounds are inspiring and conducive to rich chords. Warm but not muddy, bright but not piercing, novel but not unfamiliar:) There'd be no rock, pop, soul, hip-hop, jazz or house music without gospel:)

[@GospelMusicians]

Yezziirrr!!!

[@NegativeReferral]

@@GospelMusicians I love the demo man's technique, by the way! He plays really well!

[@GospelMusicians]

@@aresoltero SORRY, but you could't be more wrong. You can MIDI learn every single knob slider from every parameter. and map it to your hardware controller. Furthermore, we give you two versions: The version you see in the video is a skeuomorphic view for people who just want to play presets. The second version is the Pure Synth version where the editing is outlined with all of the knobs on one screen as you have suggested (without the endless on-screen menu pages). Please let us know which manufacturer gives the user two different versions of the same synth to choose from.

[@wheatworkspro]

Sweet bro, I remember us talking about this stuff years ago!!!💪🏾👍🏾

[@ChicoBlack]

@wheatworkspro Sebastian we need you back upload piano 🎹 video

[@GospelMusicians]

hahaha Yep exactly!

[@caesargarcia1313]

Love me my Gospel Musician sample libraries! Own them all…my go to!

[@GospelMusicians]

Man thanks so much for the support!

[@JozeatTxb]

@08:59; @09:40 -- I understand that "heaven-on-earth" rush🤩you just got there just playing it, but Imagine THAT sound in 1992! ! was a teenager keyboardist and we had a rich (sic) younger "gospel group" in our neighbour church at uni, who had an Sy99 plus a DX7, while in my "traditional" church we still used an antique "cathedral type" organ - 3 manuals and bass foot keys galore. I was crying with envy everytime their choir played, disliked those guys for being so lucky!!. We eventually got over all that (got some cheaper PSR alternatives), but that's how this keyboard was and remains IMHO yamaha's best ever, all considered. Great memories, thanks for the video

[@raymonddais2598]

AWESOME once again! I REALLY appreciate what you do for us keyboard players! These sound libraries are AMAZING as a person who NEVER got the chance to play /own the original hardware Thank U for this!🙏🏾💪🏾😊

[@Obriezy]

Brother Jamal, yet another amazing display of amazing and passionate artistry. Thank you for creating such inspiring tools for us to create. Can’t wait to get my hands on this. Jodeci still remains one of my favorite R’nb groups of all time and the genius of Davonte Swing definitely makes sense now because of those rich warm sounds.

[@neonether]

Been listening to this demo for the past 3 days, finally got it and on sale too. Such a sick plugin, you really capture the magic with this one, and phenomenal playing!

[@michaelflameling8695]

Great work, Jamal! You recreated my fav synth!! Thank you so much! I was playing around with it, and I added a stereo spreader and a preamp plugin for the harmonic distortion to make it sound like it was plugged in, and it sounds amazing!

[@mobypixel]

Amazing work on this library! It's always a pleasure to hear you play.

[@GospelMusicians]

My pleasure and thanks so much for the support!

[@fmendoncatecladista]

I love DX and EPs sounds, hello from Brazil

[@akina7491]

Wow this keyboard sounds Fantastic Great work Jamal k and great Demo of SY99.

[@TheProducer77051]

This is cool! i had the SY99 and TG77 and miss them dearly.

[@kaysha]

Looks so good. Great rendition of this legendary synth

[@felixayala05]

Forget Jodeci. Chick Corea used the SY's for "Beneath the Mask." 🔥🔥🔥

[@LoveBitesmusic]

sounds incredible

[@Majestyyy2x]

Amazing sounds 🔥

[@kennethteo7974]

Love the E. pianos as usual ❤❤❤

[@JCox964]

Another purchased hot product. Yessssss Serrrrrr Thx much Legend 💪🏾😎

[@Metalltool]

I really get inspired by your playing man. The passion you have for these things shines through your work. Blue Beast, TGX-99 and FM Tines in their 2.0 versions are all killer with their own GUI. I play these for hours and actually use them for my tracks, as I'm a sucker for those 80's/90's sounds. I have yet to try the TGX-85 though. Thank you Jamal

[@GospelMusicians]

Thanks so much for the support! We really appreciate it over here!

[@felixayala05]

ALWAYS wanted a SY99/77. Take my moneyyyy.

[@bivens3ify]

I remember the day I went to buy the SY 77 and the Music store didn't have it. So I bought the Peavey Dpm 3se. I remember.

[@prodarchangel]

[@mvoproject]

Thank you for the demonstration. Especially thanks and really big respect to show your incredible chord progressions - great to learn it or to help to find the new harmonies. Strange that the GUI lack of the third mod wheel )) P.S. In love with my SY77 =)

[@GospelMusicians]

You over here ripping chords....hahaha

[@JohnsonkeyzMusicAcademy]

❤❤❤❤❤ Amazing

[@damoncombs4959]

Jamal, man, I'm watching your video with John Mike. Bro, you are an inspiration to me. In your testimony, I see parallels to how I came up as a musician. I first heard about you from a friend, mine named Gene Butler(drummer). Then you came out with the tutorials and the software on the Ipad. I have bought almost everything you had to offer on the Ipad. But your story is the most inspiring thing I've heard in a while. God bless you and your family. I pray that one day, I will be able to thank you in person for the apps and for your ministry. I'm going to encourage people on my channel to purchase all your products. Keep up the good work, and I can't wait to see what you come out with next, hopefully some brass apps, but that is just me thinking out loud. God bless you man 😀

[@GospelMusicians]

Wow me and Gene Played together back in the day!! Wow...thanks so much for checking us out for real!

[@damoncombs4959]

🎹 👍🏽

[@theonecalledvino8165]

I remember this as the Chick Corea board

[@GospelMusicians]

Oh Yeah....Chick would use this all of the time!

[@StefanMarkusRode]

Very good

[@ChicoBlack]

Yes Sir My Brother Jamal Favorite Gospel Guy- already have mine Review Coming Soon ___A must For me!!!!

[@GospelMusicians]

Ma man!

[@spookypen]

D50 will always be my girl, but I can't deny this was some next level digital synthesis by Yamaha back in the day.

[@airmanchairman]

Love it when my people get down-&-dirty techno-trash-talking… Wakanda Forever‼️

[@GospelMusicians]

👊🏽

[@angelotheepianist]

Hey Jamal, Can you please make a Gospel sound pack just like you did with the MOXF 10 years ago, but this time for the MODX plus/ Montage? That would be awesome! All of your products are one of a kind!

[@GospelMusicians]

The sound libraries for the MOXF work with the Montage and MODX.

[@clutch236]

Jamal, is there a link of when you had (PJ Morgan) at the piano and having him demonstrate different piano concepts (especially "playing outside" really dissonant, then reeling it back in), is there a link to that outstanding interview & demonstration?

[@UrbanComposerMusic4L]

i bought the blue beast , the fm tines , and the pure synth joints , plan on getting the tgx 99 and the sensations too are there any courses for music theory or learning now to play cause i cant play im trying to learn so i can play in church someday

[@raphaelhoward5480]

Broo what is that chord at 16:13?? Insane musicianship Sir!!🔥🔥Great demo of amazing sounds

[@ernestm8884]

Man I like ALL of the GM products...you need to do a subsciprion service like the Roland cloud.

[@qareempais]

Gospel Musicians is top notch!

[@UrbanComposerMusic4L]

It really is 😂

[@theprophetminstrel1597]

I already have all those exact same sounds with my Mox8 and MoxF8. No download or purchase needed.

[@jasoncarter3604]

That sound at 14:45 reminds me of level 2 or sonic the hedgehog 2 on sega

[@OfficialYankNation]

Which version of MIDIculous are you using? The note names don’t look like that anymore. They are thinner

[@GospelMusicians]

Please see update here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaeqZGx_d9V9ra8si=jo0sUqNiTHVulSqR

[@jmaikisch]

Does that have the lately bass patch?

[@alphabeets]

Jamal, Patchman Music has 22 full banks of sounds for the SY99. You should talk with Patchman and license some of their FULL banks for this!

[@GospelMusicians]

We have licensed all of his best EPs inside of FM Times, but yes his stuff is amazing.

[@briann5001]

Jamal can you please design a live vst to help musicians seemlessly switch betweeen sounds. The only thing the montage has is seemless sound switching over pluggins. Is there a vst for this.

[@GospelMusicians]

We have already done this 5-years ago with MKSensation Xtreme. You can use your keyboard to switch between sounds by using Patch Learn. We've already built what you are looking for. See Here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nonGgWSopK50Y8Usi=X2UWRUkqzPNvdT5a&t=191

[@sxdrujandis]

Hey when is this coming on sale again?

[@drinkinslim]

Sounds great! Although lossless compressed is the way to go, how practical do you think it would be to have an HQ Lossy version available, using MP3 samples at 320 kbps or (my fave) OGG (OGG has a crisper top end compared to MP3 or AAC)? I'm a FLAC boy all the way, but having a smaller pack size option could be super useful in certain situations. Thoughts?

[@GospelMusicians]

We’ve been using lossless compression for the past 6-years. Although not Flac, it is lossless compression and the rate is 2:1

[@GospelMusicians]

What would make you think we don’t use Lossless?

[@drinkinslim]

No, sorry you misunderstood, LOL. I read that you use lossless compression. I was just saying that, ALTHOUGH lossless compression is awesome, could it be useful to offer the sound packs in a lossy format for those who lack space for the big packs? I'm a huge lossless compression fan and wish WAV was NOT the standard. You are doing it RIGHT. :)@@GospelMusicians

[@GospelMusicians]

​@@drinkinslim​Oh ok...Please do your research...Lossy format is lesser quality than Lossless and in our experience, we have never had anyone want a lower quality format. We definitely will not consider that and most people load our sounds on external SSD anyway and 90% of the desktop users are not worried about disk space. We would never use a lesser quality to save space, as our sounds would not sound the same.

[@drinkinslim]

Cool cool. I agree. It's interesting how a number of people will say MP3 sounds indistinguishable from lossless. But we both know different. I use both mobile and desktop for creating music. Even on desktop I'm always about saving space. 👍@@GospelMusicians

[@mistervid]

Hey Jamal, I was just about to purchase a second hand TG77 and by incident saw your newly released plugin (in fact, I was always keeping an eye on Gospel Musicians so far). Still not sure about one thing - are these really the "official" presets I once had when owning an SY77? Particularly I am interested in these "Tangerine Dream"-like sounds like in the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXjaemiggrd3b7cfeature=shared&t=6 Any chance to have them with your plugins? Many thanks and keep up the fantastic work! Cheers, Tom

[@mistervid]

So ... no answer obviously means that it does not offer the original presets? What a pitty.

[@davidosolo]

If I buy both versions: stand-alone + pure synth platinum version. Will the (same) sample sound bank be uploaded twice to my iPad?

[@GospelMusicians]

No they don’t share the same sample space. If you want both then they will occupy double the sample space.

[@davidosolo]

@@GospelMusicians Thanks for helping me out mate! I guess I will have to choose then. The standalone version is definitely a beauty, but not sure whether the pure synth version will better fit my workflow....

[@TheLergo55]

Best part: 16:18 - 16:45, uhh... uhhhhhhh. 😀. The right sound, the right feeling 👌

[@PJ....]

Say 'Jodeci' ... 0:52 10:37 10:45 ..... Take my money 💸💸💸

[@prodarchangel]

what song is that at 10:37 ? 🔥

[@zionesterhuizen4728]

Is there any uvi plugin from GM that emulates a sound silimar to the motifs analog pad?

[@GospelMusicians]

No...we switched over to our own system some years ago.

[@zionesterhuizen4728]

Ok thanks

[@VimyScout]

Warm Jet sounds a lot like, Grace Jones - Slave to the Rythmn.

[@RomeAround]

I'm getting this on iPad

[@tpochieftaingrayz4282]

Man, yall gone take all my money....😂😂😂

[@editbychael]

Heyaa what keyboard u're using

[@ZomBRaider]

Can you use a SDXC card instead of a SSD on the iPad? I got a usb-c reader so it’s pretty fast…

[@GospelMusicians]

No...It's not fast enough!

[@ZomBRaider]

Ok Thanks@@GospelMusicians

[@longevityandfitness]

YOU LOOK YOUNGER - YOU DID SOMETHING. TELLS US PLEASE, IF YOU CHANGED : YOUR DIET, YOU GO TO GYM, YOU SLEEP MORE HOURS - WHAT YOU DID IS WORKING GREAT !

[@tyronecrawford7245]

When will it be available for IOS? And will it sound the same?

[@GospelMusicians]

It’s been available for ios for the past two days. Yes it is the same. Please watch the beginning of the video for details.

[@prodarchangel]

10:50 WHAT JODECI SONG IS THAT!?? 😭🔥🔥

[@lukesotangkul1589]

[@GospelMusicians]

Yep

Yooooooooo my beloved brother! I would LOVEEE to make presets for this! I've been working on my preset game. Hope you are well fam :) Jamaal

Hi. I was gonna buy FM tines during Christmas sale, I emailed you and dm'd you on instagram with some questions I had about it. But didn't reply seems like my messages went into spam folder or something. But the sale of course has ended by now. What's the best way to contact you ?
