Jordan Rudess demos Yamaha’s Tenori-On
August 8, 2008 by Andy
Here’s a short video of keyboard player Jordan Rudess playing around with Yamaha’s Tenori-On sound/light synthesiser.
It shows the other side of the Tenori-On (I hadn’t realised the lights were visible from both sides), and while it means you can’t see exactly what controls Jordan is using, it’s still an interesting demo.
This is the kind of instrument I would love to put my hands on!
One of the most amazing things on sequencer-kinda-things I’ve ever seen. The light show is awesome.
I can imagine it on the top of my keyboard stand without any room-lights… it would be really awesome!
I saw this piece of gear on Jem Godfrey’s blog (TheNewCube.blogspot) but didn’t understand it’s name. Now I know!
Cya!

Absolutely. It sounds really good, and I’d love to try it.
It can also be used to control other MIDI devices, I believe, so you could have limitless sound possibilities. Wouldn’t it be cool if you could MIDI up to a larger light source, too?
