dynax Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Good evening, I think I may have found my keyboard, it's twice what I would have spent on a cheap used one but it seems to have all the features I want and need, bear in mind this one is going to be used mainly to create my backing tracks for the videos but it is also good enough to stand me in good stead for when I get my proper piano https://www.gear4music.com/Keyboards-and-Pianos/VISIONKEY-30-Keyboard-by-Gear4music/3MYI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 So I drive 400+ miles to take my 87 year old dad to a hospital appointment because the letter said he needed to be accompanied and had to be monitored after the procedure. He's all done in twenty minutes and I'm not needed. Turns out it was a generic letter that doesn't apply to him. Brilliant! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiggie Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 This won't be everyone's cup of tea but if you want to see some incredible Keyboard playing check this band out. Skip to approx 4:15 for the Keyboard solo. The Guitar player and Drummer are fantastic too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes probably a couple of hours to tune the thing up which lasts a year max before it goes out of tune. Plus a keyboard can be stored away rather than gathering dust for the majority of it's life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I am getting a keyboard is portability and easier to store, and in the summer and autumn evenings if nice I can take it outside and annoy the neighbours even more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kid you not there used to be a fella in the Bedfordshire village of Harold who would practise in his back garden and he was way less than talented lol.

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I bought my wife an electric piano. Not cheap but worth every penny. Never needs tuning and can be set to various modes. She can record her practice sessions which means she's been able to continue lessons online over lockdown. Plus she can plug in earphones and practice silently. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Evening all Been a bit of a sobering day today! I was back markering for a fallen riders final ride A mates brother who was a service police officer was sadly killed a few weeks back the procession was police escorted with no stopping and all traffic stopped They wanted an easy to spot bike bringing up the rear so the HUGE BMW badge served a purpose! There must have been at least 60 -70 bikes there 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynax Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) Good morning my planned ride out for Sunday has been cancelled and possibly moved to Monday but more than likely the following Sunday, because my keyboard is coming I was able to get a Sunday delivery otherwise it would have been the following Saturday Just found a pdf manual for it. https://d1aeri3ty3izns.cloudfront.net/media/65/657886/download_657886.pdf Edited August 27, 2021 by dynax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
