Titanic - My Heart Will Go On - Yamaha Electone HX-1



Uploaded by: anlynes
Video Description:
This is probably one of the most polarising songs of all time. Most people either love it or hate it. I was asked recently to play it after first tinkering with it several years ago. I decided to do the arrangement on the Yamaha Electone HX-1. Even though this instrument is over 20 years old, I still think it holds its own. The only "help" the HX-1 gets is from a Yamaha AVS-10 voice expander, which was basically an optional extra for Electones of the late 80's.
In the spirit of Electone, all the notes (and mistakes) are live. The onboard sequencer is used only for the rhythm and registration changes. By request, I've also added annotations that indicate what sounds and effects are being used for different parts of the song. These can be turned off if yo
u don't want to see them. For the record: FM = Frequency Modulation, the primary tone generation technology used by the HX-1 AWM = Advanced Wave Memory, a tone generation technology based on sampling used by the HX-1 and AVS-10

Thanks. Yes, the oboe is a bit weak. I like the pan flute though. Still, I don't think the overall sound is too bad for a 21 year old machine.

The problem is not the machine or oboe etc. The orchestration was not done correctly. You were already in the middle of the song, you should not have a duet between piano and oboe. In addition, you do not push deep enough when you play the oboe, therefore, it sound thin. The vocal needs to be smoother. Hope this helps...

The flute at 3:13 was played beautifully...Perfectly played.
The dynamic needs to be much more dramatic...Yours is a little too flat. Be more passionate....

Being very old technology (1987), the resale value is determined by demand. You might pay up to 2,000USD for this instrument, but then again you may only pay 500USD. Back when it was new, it was well over 20,000USD.
Beautiful playing. ... ( 3 weeks ago by daquagaars)
Beautiful playing. HX1 was the king of electones. I learned to play keyboards on electones, I had a HS6. No AWM (well other than rhythm sound), but there was an add on (EMT10 I think, I was only 16 back then) that had the AWM string and choir sounds from the HS8, sounded just like the HX ones. Mix AWM strings with FM strings, wow!
Wonderful performance on a truly wonderful machine.

Thanks. You're thinking of the AVS-10 voice expander (rather than the EMT10, which was intended for use with Clavinovas). The AVS-10 was designed for the HX/HS series and provides 12 AWM sounds across all three keyboards. I've used an AVS-10 in this performance, since the HX-1 doesn't have AWM vocals.
You're right, AVS10 ... ( 3 weeks ago by daquagaars)
You're right, AVS10 was the one for the electone. I'm getting my numbers mixed up. I'm remebering the EMT10 since I had one of those too which I used with my old PSR keyboard before I got the HS6. Thanks for jogging my memory!
So the HX1 has no AWM vocals without the expander? Interesting, I didn't know that.
