To my memory there are 3 keyboard parts though for Aida: Piano, Keyboard 2 and Keyboard 3. So you might need another synth.<\/p>\n<p>To my knowledge there is no such patch as &#8220;Pyramiding Glints of Dawn&#8221; or &#8220;Royal Bam&#8221;. It&#8217;s kind of a geeky keyboard player joke. Most of the sounds used for AIDA are pretty standard; like you could cover the whole show using an older Roland D-50 if you needed too.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll want to listen to the soundtrack for a little guidance on picking patches. You can also search my blog for many other posts on the AIDA musical orchestration and music tips.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Email question received about synthesizer for the AIDA Broadway musical: Hello: Do you know what keyboard model was used for the original production of &#8220;Aida&#8221;?
