Help with "Die Ärzte - Westerland"

Post by MoonMonkey »

Hey folks,

I wonder which organ (and wich settings) are used in this song (especially around 0:54):



I tried a Vox with full registers, but it doesn't match 100%. Am I missing any kind of effect?

Cheers!

It’s more of a Philicorda of sorts.

I use the Vox with only the upper registers and vibrato.

The key to getting that part in the verse is that both the first one (G) and the second one (A) are major chords — it’s just the same lick, a whole note up. The actual sound isn’t really that important: I’ve played it with the Hammond sound from my Electro 2 for years, and everybody was happy with it.

I'm playing this with the B3 sound of my NS3 as well, a bit "crunchy" with a bit of Drive (around 4). It's not the original sound but - for me and my band mates - the sound is more present and driving forward on live gigs. I'm also changing the drawbar settings from gig to gig the way I just feel it should be in that moment, which also makes it "less boring" for the other members of the band :mrgreen:

I haven‘t played this tune for a very long time, but in my sheet it says at the mentioned position „Farfisa Fills - G G6 resp. D D2“. I do remember that the people always liked the song and instantly sang along. Loved it. Sunny regards from the middle of Germany

I‘ve just made the sound for myself, I would go like this:

Organ settings Farfisa as in the foto.

Effects as in foto 2 with this rates:

Eff2 Chorus 2.1 Hz

Delay 4.6

Hope you like it.

And next week I‘ll be close to Westerland, at SPO, and hope that the song sets me in the right mood for it now. Stay healthy everybody.
