Hello,

I am hoping there are generalmusic keyboard owners who are interested in sharing their experience, tricks, tips here.

Thanks

Hi there,

I know what you mean. I have been seeking for information about WK2 HD and I can hardly see anyone here talk about it.

I got WK2 OR with HD few weeks ago. I love it so far. I need links of websites that talk about it and go into details about some of the tricks about it. Like making a brand new style, settings and so on.

Hi Joey
I am also interested to know more about WK2 HD OR. is it true that the optional vocal processor on it is better than the one that comes with WK8?. I am being told that this is the case because the WK2 is newer board compared to the WK8.

hello there
i own a wk8 and i don't mind sharing ideas with other users and i frequently check this forum and in deed it seems very slow maybe because GEM users don't have as many problems as others .
by the way i play oriental music and use quarter notes,i love my Wk8 ,couple of things i hate about it ,the keys and the sounds,if WK8 had better keys and korg or roland type of sounds it would be a killer mashine.

naziz,

That is interesting. When you use the vocal processor on your keyboard, how does the harmony voice appear to be? Does it appear robotic? Real-life?

How can you enhance the vocals? better microphones?

Thanks

i do have 16 arabic styles that i use in my WK8 , i tried to e.mail them one time to a freind
but he kept getting them in a text format .
i recently got a roland EM2000 but i'm still trying to get use to it as it's still giving me a hard time with the quarter notes,i use a roland converter box with it but unlike the G800/600 every time you switch to a different user program you have to resend the quarters from the box and i feel it's annoying because sometimes i forget and it embarasses me.

Eddy,
I don't know what the extension is of the WK 8 files, but apparantly your browser thinks it's a textfile, which means there's an association with the extension in windows!
Just press SHIFT and while holding SHIFT then doubleclick the stylefiles. Better is to zip the files first and then send them..

I have an Equinox and the sounds for oriental music are superb. Sounds are purely individually asthetic anyway, no matter how you look at it. I love it much more than my Roland and Korg! It is a hard contender with my Nord Modular though. But we are talking two different animals.
I know there is a lot of WK8 support in the GEM users group. But their news letter are very few and far between.

Hi Nuada,

I have an Equinox61, but I wonder if anyone has the beta version of the new OS (30 march 2000). It is on the Gem-club site, but I do not want to pay 20 pounds just for the OS download. I emailed Italy, but they did not respond, neither did Dave Williams of Gem-Club.
Do you know somebody?
