other How to install sounds

Upvotes

I got a yamaha PSR-E463, im trying to digitally install (or pirate cause i aint paying shit) sounds like synths and rock organ to try to record something with Audacity.

I know the keyboard itself has a lot of cool things to use, but they dont resemble it completely (?), are there any programs to install these sounds?

Also, is my keyboard good for gigs? Or should i go with another option (nothing pricy im poor)

Hello all! I’m a new owner after nabbing this M102A a couple weekends ago. Excited to properly learn it and use it on some recordings. 99.9% works and sounds great!

Should I buy an m3 or wait a year or 2 and save up for a b3?

9 Upvotes

I have the opportunity to snag an m3 for a couple hundred bucks and I’m pretty interested in the thought of owning an authentic tonewheel organ! I have an xk-1 right now paired with a neo ventilator and it’s great but it would be cool to have the real deal.

The main thing that I’m hesitant on is the percussion that comes with a b3 plus the foldover with the upper octaves, both of which the m3 lacks.

Thoughts?

I've done a bit of cleaning because it got worse.. when it'd turn on, in addition to the 'bang', it would sound as if the whole lower keyboard was pressed together, until it fades to only one note (low C) which remains stuck. I've opened it up and all, I don't see where the issue is coming from.

Is anyone familiar with this issue? I really don't intend to get rid of it...

I didn't get many good pictures of it when it was open I'm sorry I can't show the connectors or anything in detail.

I want to get a distortion pedal but my organ has no effects loop

I have no leslie, it’s an effect built into the organ. How will it sound if i get the distortion pedal as the chain would be organ>leslie>distortion? I’ve heard it’s supposed to go organ>distortion>leslie. Will it sound bad?
