RE: "Good Times" (string attacks)
Hi folks,
I am looking for the best way to attain the 'string attack' effects on Chic's "Good Times" song (on a Nord Electro 6D).
As you can hear (in the attach.), I have edited the track to the precise section where these 'string attacks' fall (I have given just two clear examples as the track is 7 minutes long!).
Would such an effect be obtainable as an isolated sample, or would one have to perform the parts live during the gig, please?
Many thanks in advance for any kind assistance offered here.
Best,
Paul David Seaman (UK)

Re: RE: "Good Times" (string attacks)
If you can't find it somewhere in the web already, feel free to just sample it straight from the record. It's quite loud compared to other parts in the mp3 right there and the bass drum and the bass can be filtered out in a daw.

Many thanks.
Do you mean run it through a high-pass-filter in Cubase?
I found this quite good representation package, but I think they only work (Nord-wise) with the Nord Stage 2.

. . . Hi Elias,
This is a cut I just made in Cubase.
Filters have not been applied as yet. I just wanted to get your opinion first.
Cheers,
Paul

Re: RE: "Good Times" (string attacks)
. . . I tried to remove the bass and drums but it sounds thinner now as it took out some of the lower-strings freq., is seems?

That's great, cheers.
But I'm trying to work out if you need a mod-wheel to trigger certain nuances of the sample?

I wanted to double check, please, which exact package I require for the Nord Electro 6D? There appears to be two (at the foot of the linked page).
The level of customer service by Keyboard Waves is utterly shocking! I have been emailing them for over one month and they continually fail to respond! You can see my responses on the boards.
Cheers,
Paul

Re: RE: "Good Times" (string attacks)
Hi Paul,
the difference is just in the format of the sample files. The left of the two Nord offerings provides the original .nsmp format, the right one (for sample library 3) the newer .nsmp3 format. You can use both since Nord Sound Manager converts the original format into the .nsmp3 format when uploading them to your Electro 6, but the one for sample library 3 is the direct fitting one
