Jamal, I am a rock guitarist of 45 years. I buy these for my recordings, but I just wanted to tell you that your playing is inspirational. Whenever I watch one of your promo videos it makes me wish that I had learned keys instead of guitar. You are a natural and music is in your soul.

[@GospelMusicians]

Wow Very humbled Andy! Thanks so much for the support over the years!!!

[@seljoypro]

Big bro I own the EX5 and you did these samples right! Clear, warm, the stereo field! Dope. Now I don’t gotta lug this heavy monster around. It’s in my iPad! 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@GospelMusicians]

💯

[@ARCODEMUSIC]

Jamal I just bought the Blue Beast expansion. After loading the sounds and just picking some of my favorite patches, the nostalgia kicked in. I’ll definitely will be using it this weekend. Thanks for adding this!!!!!!

[@ChicoBlack]

Yes, sir another One! Can't wait to do a review coming soon. excited for the EP and Organ MY brother Jamal

[@MrRedrocket42]

Nailed it! One of Yamaha's most legendary synths recreated to exacting detail thx to Jamal and GM.

[@WThompsonMusic]

These pianos definitely remind me of the 80s and 90s gospel, that classic throwback sound

[@AprilRoxStudios]

Gospel Musicians “GM” apps are the best iOS sounds because of their big, rich, in stereo sound details. Love the warm analog-like sounds! Reminds me of Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis in Janet Jackson’s older songs. Please make a Roland XP-80 app. Thanks so much for being the leader in high quality iOS sounds!

[@GospelMusicians]

Thanks so much @AprilRoxStudios

Don’t hurt em!! I still have my Ex5 and use it for gigs. That is GOAT keyboard!

Fantastic Sounds 👍👍👌👌👏👏

[@seljoypro]

The only thing missing is the vibrato synthesis on the Tenor, Alto, Soprano sax vibrato. That was magical and very breathy sounding like real breath vibrato. I can only imagine that was impossible to fully emulate. Well done though. Loving these patches. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

God bless your heart sir...your family too 🙏🙏🙏

[@GospelMusicians]

Much appreciated bruh!

[@MarioIRossello]

Purchased and installed as an integration of the vst plugins that I already use in my keyboard and analog exp rig. I am very satisfied, it has very valid and usable sounds. Gospel Musitians thank you so much, really great work. 😊

[@GospelMusicians]

Wow thanks so much for the support!

[@michaelflameling8695]

This is soo cool!! I was listening to other KZbin videos of the real instrument and its hard to tell a difference. I have a huge collection of synth sounds on my Mac. Everything from Arturia, Syntronik 2, Korg, Roland, Steinberg, some native instruments, soft synths from Logic Pro and MainStage, Gospel Musicians for the sy and ex series and dx eps. Now I just need the sy99 to complete the setup and cover all my synth basis.

[@emiel333]

I’ve recently bought TGX-85 for my iPad Pro and it’s amazing sounding! I’ve got many more of your wonderful products on my iPad Pro. All are great quality plug-ins. The BlueBeast is gonna be an instant buy for me! Thank you for supporting the iPad music production community 🙏

I still have mine since 1998. Unfortunately underrated despite that it is one of the best synths ever made of its time. I just purchased the iOS version, therefore I won’t have to move the real one from my studio again ^^. Nice job guys. I’m subscribing now.

Hey Jamal, I think you probably get this questions a ton, but at 21:06 you mention that these are the sounds you demo are the ones that you actually use. It's been a while since you've done a walkthrough of what equipment you use at your church, would be interesting to see what setup you have there compared to home etc. As a proud owner of MKSensation Xtreme, this is a wonderfully done product.

[@andymkay]

Wow that terrific. I have a little question: is portamento or glide per Element assignable ?

[@GospelMusicians]

yes Per element just like the hardware.

[@leondevries478]

Wow that’s great, till now I knew one synth that could do that (my favourite CS-2X) for lead sounds for example it’s perfect to have one element have portamento for smoothness and one element without portamento for definition..thanks for your reply…

[@TeddyLeppard]

Can you let us know how many megabytes (or gigabytes) is the total download on iPadOS? Thanks and it sounds great.

[@GospelMusicians]

30GB. You can stream and store samples on external drive.

[@MsAussie83]

@Gospel Musicians I wonder if this is something like FM Tines. I currently have FM Tines version 2.21. Has there been anything new since that version?

No this is different. FM TiNES 2 pretty much has every single EP/Dyno sound ever created. What more are you looking for for FM TiNES?

[@GospelMusicians]

Our apps have the ability to Store and stream sounds on External SSD. There is no way in the world to reduce sounds, without reducing quality. You want the sounds reduced, then you have to deal with reduced sound quality.

[@VitorZanoni]

Thanks for the feedback! I was wondering if there is a path though the physical modeling approach for example. Like some apps are doing around there. Even the original dx7 have only some mbs of memory. I know the architecture is different but just saying. Anyways, I got this one too, Love your sounds and samples! Bless u
