Hello. I'm looking for a good accordion sound. Will you recommend something?

Yes. I checked. I didn't find what I needed, so I decided to write here.

What worked for me is assigning an accordian sound on both slot A and B, set them to different octaves, and mod wheel the volume on one of the slots to customize the sound I want on the fly.

I added a volume morph (+2.8db) for aftertouch to be able to emphasize some notes as you can do on a real accordion. Besides, I'm quite happy with the italian one (how was it called?).

I will see if I can find one of the ones I had made for the NS2. Similar to above, it was a blend of a couple of available samples I found. I also used a mellow organ sound like 808000004 in the background at times to thicken up the sound a bit more.
