Portative organ sound for NS3

Postby wallhara » 18 May 2018, 21:31

Hi, can anybody give me suggestions on how to make a portative organ sound? I have been experimenting with the Pipe1 and Pipe2 settings, but my results are always too harsh or too loud. I also fiddled with different harmoniums but the sound character is just wrong. Somebody posted a program file years ago, but it was for the Stage EX only. If you are familiar with Jethro Tull (Songs from the wood or Velvet Green), that's the kind of sound I'm looking for.
Thanks for any ideas

What about some of the organ flute samples in the library?
Maybe mix two of them or mix one with a flute..

Sounds to me like there’s mellotron all over there. Tibia organ from the Mellotron library and the Recorder patch, maybe?

Just from a very quick listen on the cellphone speaker. Apologies if that’s not what you’re looking for.

Pretty good call on that. Based on the audio clip at http://www.nordkeyboards.com/sound-libr ... ron-organs I think the second mellotron sound (which I assume is Organ MkI Mellotron) seems to capture the character pretty well. You can also hear the real thing by itself at about the 55 minute mark at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MBd0e4eE_s
