Freaky...That's some cool avatar you got yourself there, Jordan :smile: did the same guy who designed the new cool page did it?

Cheers,

This avatar was designed by Mika Tysska. The incredible designer of my site and the creator of the Dream THeater animation that was seen on the last DT tour. CHeck it out on the upcoming DVD!

^^I was quite sure it was his job (looking similar to the DT anim.). Hey, do you think that we could get a size increase for our avatars too (OK, maybe not so big :smile: )?

Oh, and those people that made the Wakeman setup models definately had a lot of time...

Admit it Jordan! You know you want a set! Along with an Emerson set, Banks set, Moraz set, maybe a Chick Corea or Jan Hammer set, etc... so you can play "keyboard heroes" with your friends when they come over after school or on weekends!

And cool avatar too. Be even cooler though if they keys were wedge shaped so they went all the way around.

Actually, that would just be a cool thing to have in general. Kind of like the keyboard version of a the fanfret guitars that CG3 uses. Not a full circle though, maybe like a 5 foot radius, just to make it easier to play crazy shit up high and down low (keeping your wrist straight compared to your arm, like an ergonomic comp keyboard).

EDIT: I guess the octagon is cool too. I didnt initially pick up on that.

[St0rMl0rD]

If I was to make the same thing as the Wakemans for Jordan, it wouldn't need as much work since there aren't that many keyboards as with Rick, but making the Arrick would be a pain in teh a?+#". Also (for Jordan), are you planning to use some newly discovered gear for your solo album, except the Roland thing?

Sth like Jarre's Magic controller (see here (http://www.hyperionwebs.com/electronicshadows/archives/techtalk/synths_of_jarre2.htm)- you have to scroll down a bit)?

Yeah, like those (especially the one with normal sized keys). But a full size keyboard, and probably without as much curve (ie a bigger radius).

[FRETPICK]

I was just about to ask you the same question! I love your avatar and I also loved the animation movie during the DT show. I'll be glad to check it out on the DVD when it's out.
