Looking for a Particular E.Piano Voice

Post by Pykan »

So I just recently purchased a Korg TR-88 and it is amazing! I am looking for a particular voice or I don't know if it is combination of voices that is mixed (that is what it sounds like)...anyway the musician in the following video is Roger Hodgson, and was part of Supertramp and is playing one of their hit songs called "Dreamer". He is playing a Korg Triton Pro X and I have been trying to mix a bunch of voices on my TR to replicate the E-Piano voice that he is using in this video. I know that this song is actually played on an old Wurlitzer electric piano, but that isn't the voice I am looking for, its the one in this video. I don't know if maybe anyone knows exactly what it is and has an ear for it and maybe would be able to point me in the right direction. I would love to use that particular voice for use in some of my gigs. Thanks! :D

Wow! I'm pretty much interested in that sound as well :) It sounds like there is still Wurlitzer sound in the patch layerd with a nother EP patch. I think that is what I'll try first :)

I know that there is a regular piano voice mixed in (listen to lower notes) as well as some strings, but that funky sound, I have tried to match it with keyboard and synth voices and nothing. :roll:

I think you were right...I just mixed a Velo Wurli with a stereo piano and I am getting close, a little more tweaking.

Okay, it does have something to do with the Wurlitzer, but when I mix it, you can distinctively tell that it is a Wurlitzer in the background with a piano mixed in. Here is another video, same musician, different song, same voice.

It sounds like there is some sort of modern synth or electric piano in there too.

I think besides the chosen voices, a bit of Chorus effect is needed.

I think it's a mix of wurlitzer and a CP70, and then the right amound of effects and EQ.
