Dear keyboard players,
could someone help me with the sound two bars before the chorus of ABBA's "S.O.S.," or perhaps give me a tip on how to program this synth?
Many thanks in advance!

Re: SOS ABBA
Hi, and welcome-
It sounds like a Moog arpeggio using a square wave. The trick to the sound on a Nord Stage 3 would be to use the mod envelope and a little resonance to affect the filter so it has that little blip sound on the attack.

Re: SOS ABBA
I have a full program for my NS4 88, self created but very close and works well with a normal covers band.
btw Synth part comes in via a Yamaha floor control pedal, but you can obviously isolate it and arrange to how you see fit. I found the easiest way ... rather than to jump hugh across the keyboard.
email me directly and I'll send it. simjimbuy@gmail.com

You may also want to post it here if you like, for others beim able to benefit as well (as long as you are not creating them for commercial reasons which then could not be expected providing it for free)
