Hillsong United – Freedom is Here (Cover and Keyboard Tutorial)

’s a cover of the intro riff for Freedom is by Hillsong United off of their new album [a_CROSS//the_EARTH] or Tear Down These Walls. I interpreted the song by ear so it may be off from the actual song. Sheet was not available at the time and isn’t available yet as far as I know. So if you have any questions, send me a message and subscribe!

Voices for Yamaha Keyboards:
Right 1 (Main) – SynthFlute
Right 2 (Layer) – SquareLead2

Duration : 0:4:9

  • fatfrancis:

    I’m not that …
    I’m not that familiar with Ableton but I know the tiniest bit about synths. So if you want to find a voice, I suggest something along the lines of a square synth. If you could do it with ableton, layer it with a distorted sound or filter and gradually increase it on top. Another idea that might work is have a distorted sound and adjust the LPF/Low Pass Filter. I don’t know if any of these things are possible with ableton live though. Oh yeah and the song is at 121 BPM if that helps. Good luck.
