Nicely done on all counts. 🎹🎙️

[@matthewgaines10]

Impressed by the Yamaha YC-88, the vocal performances, and the keyboard player.

[@MichaelTanMusic]

hey, thanks for the kind comment :)

[@timothysobina6777]

Incredibly soothing yet dramatic delivery as well! Love the spectrum of selections. Playing and singing is beyond words wonderful! Love Yamaha products! ❤🎵🎹🎤🎶

[@synthartist69]

Wow she has awesome vocals and this guy plays so well... amazing!

[@MichaelRedman]

Loved the sounds of the keyboard, the playing and the singing. Fantastic. Would love to hear full versions even more. Is that available anywhere?

[@dielkeyboard]

Melhor demonstração que já ouvir e assistir 👏👏👏👏 parabéns

[@toddo401]

You both did a great job! Very enjoyable! I just purchased the YC88 and came across your video while doing some research. Again, great job!!

[@jobatimus]

Beautifull sounds and voice...

[@DaleNorth]

These two singers are fantastic! And so are the key sounds from the YC. Thanks for a really nice 7 minutes of listening

[@MichaelTanMusic]

Thanks for listening!

[@ezequielbarbosa3296]

Fui as lágrimas,😢😢😢😢😢😢😢, que musicas, a voz da cantora, a performance do pianista, oh, my god,,,,,😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@ldp7090]

its crazy such beautiful music and sound from a singer and piano. no percussion or bass and it sounds amazing

[@unkn0wnjay]

When will you make more samples?

[@zealforhumnity]

Amazing playing and singing, loved 2:10 song, was a great fit for you and her, compliments you both so well!

[@narfsounds]

Wow! Sounds incredible! Excellent playing and singing.

[@MichaelTanMusic]

hey thanks mate, hope you're going well!

[@markdornsky]

Top skills from all, both girls have awesome chops.

[@vertigo0105]

Awesome video. For a stage keyboard it appears to be right up there with a Nord, as I understand the main selling point of the YC is it's Organs (even though you didn't demo them in this vid) in addition to all the other sounds. I wonder if the YC would have made a bigger splash overall if they had the rotary swell enhancement from update 1.2 in it from the initial release..!?

[@comeback1827]

what a voice , with great groove an interpretation!!! and good keybord sound and playing !

[@HeavenlyBridegroomMusic]

I enjoyed it. Thank you so much. 😊

[@abbezwaal]

Fantastic ! What an instrument!

[@taleman730]

Geez...what a voice! I completely forgot about the piano

[@WysteriaGuitar]

Ms . Morrell has a beautiful, well controlled voice...

[@ReallyDudeYouGottaHearThis]

Great singer! If I buy this keyboard will I get to play with such an excellent vocalist!

[@dac3298]

I think there's a voucher included where you select which singer they'll send out to you. First month is free, but then it's a monthly subscription after that.😀

[@Nigmamsoul]

O 1° EP é simplesmente PERFEITO!

[@tonyoxas8757]

Bravo à tous les trois ! Interprétations époustouflantes ! Merci pour tous ces covers parfaits. Amitiés. 🕊🕊🕊🕊👍✌️🙏

[@ezequielbarbosa3296]

Awesome, this is so good!!😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@pianistandre]

Great ! Fantastic vocalists and amazing pianist 👍🎶🌹 Yamaha Yc 88 sound wow ! Next week I have to order ! Ciao from Poland Gdynia 🎹

[@MarkusBoettner]

That's ONE mighty machine! And excellent performance, too!

[@lihatjalanan1979]

what is difference between YC and CP ?

[@EnricoColacillo]

Is there any possibility to hear the songs fully and not just the first notes? Thank you so much 🙏

[@rustyyates421]

She has really great pitch. Very accurate! The yc is the board I'm buying next week

[@MichaelTanMusic]

she's the best

[@funki_]

Very nice singer, indeed...! But she also is lucky for having such a fine keyboardist beside.

[@HeavenlyBridegroomMusic]

Two singers, tho.

[@ChristofferKeizer]

You three are incredible.

[@meiblezvlog1942]

Thanks for this beautiful music, ilove it.

[@hanstinge]

Excellent video!! Nice Sounds.

[@DarkHorse70]

Do you have a long form if this, it’s so nice on the ear! I came to hear the yc88 but stayed for the music, can’t get better than that!

[@ageresequituresse]

Nice chops on Clair de Lune!

[@rustyyates421]

Nice playing and she can sing!

[@OrionCassiopeiaAndromeda]

I really think you should let that copyright problem slide and give yourself another chance straight away. You just can't forget your most famous series like that, and you just have to make the song snippets shorter to avoid KZbin detecting it, as I mentioned a few months back. Unless you're still in the middle of a busy schedule, then I can understand, because I know someone who has a similar job as you, and I can imagine what his life is if he had a KZbin channel. But shouldn't you try again or something after a long time? We can't forget it eventually even though some other people are doing the series themselves and are using the same solutions, including me.

[@marvinkmooneyoz]

SOunding great!

[@MichaelTanMusic]

thank you 😊

[@specialbinson]

Thanks for this beautiful music!!!

[@rootready]

Amazing voice and sound! Thank you!

[@okay1904]

The only criticism of the Yamaha sound is that it is probably too direct/close mic sounding. But that is a good thing, its easier to tame a very present sound than attempt to sharpen a dull distant tone. Having said that, in a live environment which has some natural room sound, the Yamaha will be the perfect instrument, sounding just like a close miked piano, in that room, with the room reverb adding the natural low pass filter, to dull the overall sonic, a little bit. Listening on headphones or recorded directly from the audio outs, this does sound a bit too distinct/jarring to the ear, as presented in this video., somewhat disconnected and overshadowing the vocal, rather than laid back as an accompaniment piano should be.

[@ojeaneduardo]

Hi Michael Tan, are the live sets you used available on Soundmondo? one of the best executions, and it was because of the video that I bought it.

[@gorkemkibar]

Glad you are alive :)

[@JST1981able]

Awesome guys!

[@christianpondeville4823]

so good😪

[@ray540]

Toda vez que fico triste por achar que não tenho talento suficiente, assisto esse vídeo e aí tenho certeza de que não tenho mesmo.😅

[@christianpondeville4823]

so good 2🥲

[@TheJeffPorcaro]

By the way why you don’t publish the whole songs instead of just extracts? would be awesome.

[@jetgraphy]

U returned

[@MichaelTanMusic]

[@vini_95151]

[@remyandersen2001]

hi michael! i have a suggestion for your next hit songs/original samples vid! love in this club by usher sampled the euro hero synth sound from garageband (2007). you can look further into it if you like...

[@mj_friedman]

How did you get such a clean sound on the vocals without any reflection filters around the mic? Any tips? Sounds great

[@MichaelTanMusic]

thanks for the comment! i’ve sound-treated the room very carefully.. diffusers and baffles everywhere, plus the walls are not symmetrical :)

[@jonathandossantossilva2683]

Lindo demais!!!

[@demongamer999]

Awesome!👍💐✨

[@bronney]

Gosh, what a voice! Sorry Michael, but I am sure you agree.

[@jazzlegend]

Just awesome! I’m curios, what speakers were you connected to?

[@MichaelTanMusic]

we were wearing headphones for the recording but usually I run ADAM A7X. They're the best.

[@TheJeffPorcaro]

awesome demo Mr Tan, you made my day! Can you confirm all of these piano sounds are embedded in standard YC88 or did you add anything? Cheers from France and continue to amaze us 🎹

[@MichaelTanMusic]

Thank you for the comment! Absolutely, the sounds and effects are directly from the YC88, no further processing!

[@jmason8604]

came for the keyboard but ......amazing vocals, wow

[@kaufmann6988]

Well done !

[@MichaelTanMusic]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@armandandrey3904]

Omgggg Epic...

[@88omarz]

that c7 is awesome wish it was in the montage

[@mlewmisc]

Great stuff! Could you post the songlist?

[@MichaelTanMusic]

In the description! Cheers

[@Litabos]

When will you make a part 18 of copied songs

[@MichaelTanMusic]

getting pretty hard to make these videos due to copyright issues. i’m hoping there’ll be a copyright reform soon so i can make the case that this series is educational and fair use.

[@OrionCassiopeiaAndromeda]

You just have to make the sampled song snippets shorter so that KZbin won't recognize it. That's what i'm doing. Or at least make sure that the original/sample doesn't sound like the copyrighted track altogether.

[@MichaelTanMusic]

@@OrionCassiopeiaAndromeda yes, it’s so unfortunate that this is the case. even worse that the content ID system is constantly changing, so i’m getting a lot of retrospective copyright notices. i’m considering disputing a claim on the basis of Fair Use and Education.

[@freda9498]

which country is the YC88 made in?

[@MichaelTanMusic]

yamaha? i’m gonna say Japan

[@leolimateclas]

Is the L&R output only connected to L (Mono)? seriously? WTF

[@MichaelTanMusic]

if you must know, i recorded it MIDI and re-printed the audio (in stereo, yes) it after the singer left. I did this so I could tweak the patches with her voice already recorded.

[@TommyPNov]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@MichaelTanMusic]

cheers mate!

[@joecullen5698]

whaoooooooooaaaaauuuuu thanks
