I am currently looking to invest into a pro vibe. Before hand I used a Ross from the school I taught at to play gigs. I am looking for a good vibe to gig and move around alot, but I don't want to compromise sound. I am asking to get info from people who have used top of the line models. I am looking at either the M48 or the M55 from my understanding the M55 is the standard. Yamaha, I have done some research but cannot really narrow it down to some models I can look at. I do not really see many prime artists play with Adams.

As Drew stated, THE master in solo vibes is Gary! Here is the obvious example to show with Chega de Saudade. I added a few other remarkable examples I found on Youtube, to... first listen to the different kind of solo playings! Feel free to add comments... and other examples! (ps: too bad we can't find anymore Mainieri's Lush Life solo beautiful version!)

Hi Vibesworkshop,

Last week, Dimitri and I spontaneously organized a gig in Thessaloniki, as I was there for a few days to give a talk at the ICMPC conference (International Conference on Music Perception and Cognition).

We could luckily put up this gig together, rehearse and play in front of (I think) the nicest audience EVER : people who came from the conference specially to listen to us !

There is one more video (unfortunately incomplete) and a lot of audio that Dimitri will post later.

Enjoy !

All the best,

Nico Farrugia
