Rudess Meets Tenori-On

It's good for a vintage videogames effects! :-)

Has Jordan ever used this instrument live with Dream Theater before? I think I seen a video on it here, but I can't seem to find it! :(

Sounds amazing nevertheless.

alright Santa, you know what I want biatch.

This would look amazing live. Get about 10 of these set up in a row and have whole orchestrations of these things, as well as putting on a great visual performance. I'd like to see if he uses something like this in a metal song of sorts, maybe with DT. it'd be awesome.

You gotta get Dani one of these! :P

The beauty of this instrument is that the graphic interface
inspires very different types of musical ideas. It also is able to output MIDI so you can control and MIDI sound source.
Its wonderful to see people designing instruments that merge the world of sight and sound!

don't you mean lite brite? lol ;P

I can make a keyboard sound like a guitar. I can make an orange sound like an ocarina. I can make a piece of elastic on cardboard sound like a bass guitar. It's not the sounds you create, it's HOW you create them. It's the control, not the sound. The control of this allows you to change what sounds you produce.

Haha holy S**t my video comes up first after this one. Yay!

Nice! On Vimeo, there's a cool clip that pairs Tenori-on with external synths. Check out "Tenori-on Meets Kyma."

LOLWUT. Awesome.

It certainly seems cool to play with, but I'm not too happy calling this thing an instrument. I'm not convinced that this machine can produce sounds, that can't be created with more control on another device. Cool anyway :)

omg. i would have soo much fun with that. hahaha

It seems that Yamaha is following one of the market's gold rules:
IF YOU WANT A SYNTH TO HAVE SUCCESS, PUT IT IN THE HANDS OF JORDAN RUDESS.

LOL oh it'll be worse

Nice!!!

reminds me of an etch a sketch for some reason

awesome! I heard Yamaha sells them from their shop for abot £600. I think. I WANT ONE NOW!!!

DT meets proghouse

c'est quoi ce truc ????

Whataa

how the hell does that work???

That is awesome, but I predict that within a year we'll see inexpensive toy versions in stores, and the world will be flooded with kids producing the equivalent of horrible video game music.

The murder rate will skyrocket.

stoner's paradise...

that is one of the coolest things i've ever seen.
