Sorry guys, yea it's from the Jupiter collection. I'd had a few drinks when I posted, so apologies for the sparse information and very sloppy playing! As I said, it's just the patch I use when I sit in with bands that play that particular tune, so it's not anywhere near perfect. :thumbup:

Me and my band also perform this song live.
NS2 Program in attachement incl. all samples (ZIP).

For the hard attack in the strings in Program 2 slot B please use the sample attack skip knob.

Are you talking about the samples in the .zip file from Funk76? These are in .nsmp format, and you can convert them into the .nsmp3 format with either the Nord Sample Converter or by simply loading them into the nS3 with the Sound Manager.
Regards Schorsch

Want to convert programs between NS2 and NS3?
Check this awesome website to visually view NS2/3 programs and re-create them on the other instrument!

I'm sorry if I sound very dumb, but I downloaded your file and it sounds so different than the mp3 you uploaded. I was expecting a synth bass in the left hand. Did you play the bass with another keyboard?

iirc the patch has the sound from the main keyboard riff, and then the brassier sound mixed with EP for the next section of the song. Drums / bass not included :)
