Reasons stock synths

As a guitar player, watching this has made me appreciate the endless possibilities of sounds for keyboards and synths. Music is so infinite.

@@patrickfitzgerald2861 yeah, i got a couple syntha that i thoroughly enjoy, and indeed, with some theory making music isn't that hard. It's just the fluidness that I miss. I can play a g#m9 on a keyboard, but it'll take a while before I'd find the notes. With guitar I can just immediately play it.

@@menjysmith1 Yep. Even though I'm a permanent intermediate-level guitar player, I do know where everything is on the fretboard. With my synths I rely on programming and the UI to overcome my lack of keyboard finesse. So I'll never be a wizard, but these crazy machines are just so damn much fun to mess around with!

Franks synth melodies and bass lines are so perfectly composed. Timeless music.

The background for “be yourself” is actually sampled from a song called “Running Around” by Buddy Ross

Apparently Buddy Ross had actually played that for Frank before Blonde, used it in his own music, then Frank put it in the Blonde interlude sections. They didn't know what music would end up on Blonde when they had that session together.

I don't know a vintage analog synth from a reissued keytar. I can't even play piano but I love William Kurk's videos. Probably my favorite on the channel.

We need more of this guy on Reverb

What a great resource for aspiring producers. I've always tried to emulate sounds from my favorite artists and this helped me tremendously. Thanks for sharing.

William, I love your in-depth look at classic sounds and how to get mimic them in a software-based form as well. Keep up the great work!

That was such a cool episode. Thank you Reverb!

One of the best Arturia ad's I've seen in a while.

I need like 7 more episodes of Frank Ocean

I loved Frank's synth sounds but i loved this guy even more!

Awesome vid. So inspiring. Thanks for putting in the hard work

Brilliant episode Will!

This is so so insightful and will hopefully enhance and inspire my production, thank you!

Ok this is so done well. William you rock! There is information well presented, good audio sample examples, solid explanations. And you always get me laughing or smiling with unexpected humor. I keep looking for more KZreads by you, I fear I have become a Kirkaholic.

The "Synth Sound" descriptions are PERFECT - but I would love to see more time on the top-down keyboard view. The chords played are just as important as the sound!

I love videos like this. The way you broke down White Ferrari was awesome. Keep these up!

BEST One Yet! Great Work reverb!

Long time no see, Im happy to see you back. Love your vids :)

Everything on the Arturia Collection is so good. I Mean it's cool to use presets but what's better is that you can create your own sound pacthes to use later, that's pretty much developing your own sound.

I love your stuff! Educational AND entertaining!

this might be my favorite video of all time

this was SO INCREDIBLEEE

Underrated video, this is crazy coming out from reverb

Thank You for this!

quality content, makes me hear (and appreciate) some of my favorite songs even more. I'd love a sequel actually, there's so much more great Frank songs with awesome synth magic in them! (His post-Blonde singles!)

Like your series, keep going man!

I know you did synth sounds of Africa, but I’d really recommend doing a synth sounds of Toto as a whole. They have some amazing synths in their songs (songs like girl goodbye, Rosanna, hydra, etc)

Good vibes

Always assumed that Frank just used soft-synths, but it's cool to find out he was using mini-moog's and stuff
