Sad Lisa (Cat Stevens) - Piano Sound

Post by HarveyKey »

Hi Folks,
I'm searching for a similar original Piano-Sound from "Sad Lisa" by Cat Stevens for the Nord Stage 2.

Perhaps with changes by the control pedal...?

Thanks for your help!

Once you've got the basic piano sound, duplicate that into the second slot.

On that second slot, add the rotary (Leslie) speaker effect to the piano.

Use morph via pedal or wheel to fade the clean signal a bit, while adding the Leslie piano.

Add quite a bit of compressor.

Sorry, I'm a beginnner with the Nord Stage, perhaps I do something wrong...
When I activate the rotary, it is always on both slots. So the sound is the same on both slots...

Oh s***.

I'm sorry. I thought the rotary was per-slot. My mistake.

mmhhmm is it possible to fade the rotary effect? I dont think so..
perhaps it is possible to get the sound with a chorus or a flanger effect..
I'm helpless! It can't be possible to create the sound not with the stage!

You could try doing exactly what I wrote above, but using a pretty strong chorus (and fairly fast - maybe 5-10 Hz or so). It won't be *exactly* that, but it could probably get fairly close.

Despite it is not straight evident, you can change the speed of the rotary effect via morphing and let's say the expression pedal, but not the intensity.
