Hi all,

 

Just completed and upload a new track to Soundclick, called "Feedback Loop".

 

This track is an organ trio funk groove in the vein of Soulive and Medeski, Martin & Wood, showcasing the Korg CX-3. Reason supplied the drums and rhythm guitar while the Yamaha EX7 supplied the "pseudo-strat". Please, don't laugh too hard at my feeble attempt at LH bass:bor:

 

Comments are welcomed and appreciated.

 

Cheers,

 

Tuck

Nice job, Tuck! Kind of reminds me a bit of Niacin and also the Medeski/Scofield album "A Go Go."

 

Question: For the lead sound, sounds like more than just a single organ line - is that the EX7 you mentioned doubled up with the percussive organ sound?

 

Regards,

Eric

Thanks for the replies:)

 

ElectricPuppy, TheFoosa - Thanks guys;)

 

O-funk - the patch was "Organized". No external effects used. Footswitch used for internal Leslie sim. Loved that bass on the CX3:thu:

 

Eric - Thanks for listening. I had that Scofield CD "A Go Go". Awesome CD. Yep, the lead sound was doubled with the "Blue Lead" guitar patch from the EX7.

wow!! fantastic song! You've got so much going on there, nice harmonies, the sound is spot on and it grooves like aaaaah! This is one of the best things I've ever heard on the forum.

 

Too bad we're an ocean apart, otherwise we could do a seriously badass jamsession...

 

go Tuck!! your wife made a good decision and let you have the Cx3

...and a good cook to boot. Aaaah, I think she's a keeper:)

 

Thanks, Roald. Man, I just looooooove this thing(CX-3)!!! The feel of the keys, the sound, everything! The sound has sooo much presence, and the bass is so thick you'd have to slice it with a very sharp knife. And hearing this thru a real Leslie, :eek: NASTY!!

 

I'd definitely be down for a jam session. Maybe it could be done online:confused: :thu:

 

Cheers!

Btw, I can't tell too well on here because these speakers don't give the clearest bass, but your LH sounds very solid to me. Better than my excuse for organ bass. I'm curious how you recorded this, because I'm hearing organ playing the melody, chords, and bass. I take it you aren't using any midi pedals, especially since you said LH bass...so was one part overdubbed, like the chords or melody, or even the bass played separate? Certainly doesn't matter here, I'm just curious how you recorded this, because I can't quite figure it out.

LOL, figured someone would catch it. Yep, the melody was overdubbed. Played the LH bass and chord parts as the basic track.

With respect to making your own patches on the CX3 how does one go about it?

 

The only way I've been able to do this is to take an existing patch and edit it. However, if I use the drawbar mode I don't seem to be able to save the patches I create... anyone have any ideas?

In fact, I liked it so much, I'd be willing to pay you an obscene amount of absolutely nothing to crank out and post a few more grooves. I might use them for a new seminar I'm going to hold for me, myself and I called, "How to Groove Like Tucktronix".


Good stuff, man.

 

:eek::D

very very well done Jon! I just luv the @ 2 min - 3min progression and run. I grew up with the likes of Oscar Pederson and numerous other top jazz musicians as a kid. I have got to make it to Buffalo area this summer if you're not in Toronto and bring a few of the old boyz to hear you. My father was one of the Cdn top Jazz kybd in the after WW2 he knew the all the greats stateside as well. I still remember a jam session where Miles Davis was present in our bsmt, Bill Evans was a great friend of my father as well. So many great memories coming back - thank-you my friend!!

at the time I had no idea how special it was - I didn't know that this wasn't how the typical kid grew up. If you're in Toronto this wknd. Dave Young's octet (Oscar's bassist) is playing at The Rex on Queen St. W. with my cousin Rick Wilkins. Let me know & I'll intro you to the band members if you're able to make it. I'll likely head down on Sat night.
