Holiday Treat for Kurzweil Owners
Kurzweil owners who’ve tried Daniel Fisher’s amazing Darkside of the Moon program or his Christmas Tree Bells know that anything Dan makes for the K2000, K2500, or K2600 is sure to be fun to play with.
Fisher’s latest “stunt program” allows you to exactly recreate Pink Floyd’s “Shine On You Crazy Diamond,” including the huge string chords, the lead synth, and even the guitar solo, all in real-time! He developed this program to perform the song in his Pink Floyd tribute band and you can download the patch at their website.
You can also benefit from Daniel’s programming skills on our entire line of exclusive Sweetwater CD-ROMs in the Soundware section of our on-line store.
