A simple demo which shows how to use F5 (Bar Settings) to have different instruments step into different parts of the song.

If I produce a video I will have to use a Popular Song by typing in the chords. I want to display the joy of singing with BIAB. I realize this may not be allowed due to copyright infringement. What is your take on this? Is this allowed or no? Same question for performing live Jazz tunes in small lounges. Would this be a major problem?

Registered: 07/30/11 Posts: 10 Griff Newbie Registered: 07/30/11 Posts: 10	Hey Gorilla, If you make a backing track of nothing but chords, then maybe put a BB melody (solo) in the middle, you're not duplicating the song. Many chord progressions are similar. So, should not be an infringement, since if you play it by itself, it doesn't sound like any song in particular. But if you want to sing in a lounge, music played there should be covered by the use fees, paid by the establishment, that are paid yearly to BMI and ASCAP. It's no different than if you were in a cover band working the venue. They almost never sound like the record. Kind of like a poor man's karoke, except it you want to validate yourself, you'll likely be playing your guitar and doing a vocal, or something similar. You're just having an electronic noise maker help you sing the song. The use fees should cover that, since for heaven's sake, you're not ripping off anybody. Cover bands do it, why not you. Except you're working your tail off creating some sounds to help you get through the song. This whole concept is a step down from being a DJ, but still allows you to sing and play. I didn't ask anybody about this, so if you're in doubt, ask other musicians who do something similar. There is at least 1 fantastic singer in my area who came all the way from Ireland to do exactly as I have described, and after several years, he's still playing the club he started at. He's not hurting anybody, not getting rich (well, I don't know that. Maybe the tips are good). Anyway, he's a pro, and well known here, and abroad. I know the club is paying use fees, as prescribed for any club. So, all should be well for you and me, as well. Hope this helps. Griff

Registered: 03/26/12 Posts: 8 barley Newbie Registered: 03/26/12 Posts: 8	Hi Debb, The technique in my videos help to make playing a song easier for a non- professional like me. There are many good styles and v0ices on the Tyros 4, so that's part of the insentive, But the biggest advantage to the set up is that it allows "LIVE changes in styles voices and other sound features, like Multi Pads, on Tyros. It adds a sort of professional sound to a "bad" keyboard player. See My latest additon to the tutorial at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxozIi4YXsA Rocco

Registered: 03/26/12 Posts: 8 barley Newbie Registered: 03/26/12 Posts: 8	A new tutorial to compliment earlier tutorials on BIAB Chords Drives Keyboard. This shows how to set-up Resistrations, and PAT (Performance Assistant Technology" set-up so you can pre-program style and voice changes using BIAB Chord Drive,. It also shows how to take advantage of PAT on Yamaha Keyboards, which allows 'Poor' player to to hit any key on the keyboard and only sounds that are compatible with the chords from BIAB will be played. The normal - progressive scale is gone, and only chord compatible sounds are avalable. Check it out at ------ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxozIi4YXsA Rocco Edited by barley (06/20/12 09:28 PM)
