Yelreve Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I played a while back however had to give it up due to lack of time :(, I still like to have a play every now and then though :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrizzMan Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I did, however I haven't in years. I was quite heavily involved and still have a fully-equipped recording studio in my home. I have not entered that room in months. :( I love the instrument, but I simply haven't had the time to pursue it further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrizzMan Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 but i play sometimes. though havent played in awhile. hopefully i can take piano next semester If you are presented with the opportunity to pursue it further, go for it. I have always found it to be one of the most relaxing activities to partake in - it's something I like to refer to as a "stress killer". :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kondrath Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I've never had lessons, but I picked it up by ear. I've been playing since I was 2 or 3, and am 19 now. I love the piano... I can't read music and I don't know correct fingering, but I can learn songs pretty quickly. I'm more of a "keyboardist" rather than pianist, since I use my keyboard to create songs via propellerhead's Reason 4. Awesome hobby :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrizzMan Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Kondrath, what is/are your workstation(s) of choice? I am partial (or was - haven't played for a long, long time) to Yamaha gear and have a P-250 and Motif ES8 in the studio, however I was an avid Kurzweil user as well... I still have a classic PC-88MX sitting around somewhere. That thing must be attracting and collecting dust left and right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Candyman Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I play occasionally, usually I play keyboard when I'm making a track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Civilian Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I consider myself more of a keyboardist as well, I have a little home studio setup consisting of a Korg Triton and a MicroKorg along with a Roland TD-12 for drums :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrChainsaw Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 For all the keyboardists: try Synthesia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do anything major, so for a keyboard I'm using a "junky" Yamaha portable grand 205. It's just a normal keyboard with usb midi, but it does the job. Though sometimes the "A" keys (yes, every single A key) doesn't work. I'm going to need a better keyboard eventually... I also have a presonus firebox and AudioTechnica 2020 for vocals. Edit: TV, that Synthesia thing looks pretty interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
