Tips for circus/fairground organ sound?

Post by wallhara »

Hi, as an intro to a song I have to play a few bars of the classic circus / fairground / freakshow tune, I don't have an example right now but I'm sure you know it perfectly well, the one in waltz time. Does anyone know of an appropriate toy organ or calliope sample, or registration for the NS3 organ that could work for it?
Thanks!

Doesn't the NS3 have a pipe organ model as well?

Yes but it sounds too clean. I was looking for something slightly out of tune, half broken sounding.

you need a calliope - not an organ per se ...
