Help with Electric Piano Patch from Charlie Puth's "Patient"

Post by Yogi108 »

Hello! I'm trying to emulate the electric piano patch from Charlie Puth's "Patient". You can hear it here:

I am working with a couple of songwriters and they really like this patch... I believe the closest of the Epianos is the Epiano 1 Mk I.... I tried adding some Trem, a little bit of Vibe and Delay... But there's this woody flavor to it that I can't put my finger on... Maybe there's another Epiano layered on Panel B??? I have a Nord Stage 3... Anyone of the super Nord superheroes out there able to help?!

Warm regards,

Rod

That’s gorgeous...almost Wurlitzer-like.

There’s some distortion in the amp — sounds like it could be a Twin or an AC30, and the final signal is heavily compressed.

Playing with a lot of dynamics will give it that grit.

It is surely Wurlitzer. But maybe not a patch, rather a real one. You can hear the mechanical noises, which are not present in the Stage's Wurlitzer.
Use the amped version of Wurlitzer, and compress it with an outboard.
