Hello, here's my new version of this sound :

• Liquido Narcotic V2.mp3

You'll find the new prog to play this one

Tell me which one you prefer ( V1 ou V2) ?

Here's a video of this song played with the band, using the patch " liquido narc V2.ns2p" :

Interestingly, there seems to be a more chimey high end timbre to the synth in the live version performed by Liquido. Sounds more wet to my ears. Give it a listen.

But...now I just gave the itunes track a listen, and I didn't really hear the high end chimey sound. But what I do hear is like...more of a tremelo wavery effect.

You guys did a great job covering this song!

Thank you all!

Lord Nord, or Hanon, do you know how to obtain a sound closer to the original, "more wet" like you said? I saw on another topic (D 70 samples) that the sample "Mondopoly" seems to be the one used by liquido for this song, has someone a personal patch wich use this one?

Hello Fabin,
I believe that Liquido used an actual Roland D-70 for this sound.
I watched a couple live videos, and Wolfgang is seen playing one.

I did a sample of this sound, but the sample just doesn't quite capture the magic.
I have a D-70 in the studio, and will attempt to break down the sound.

The D-70 is an odd synth/ ROMpler which seems to me to sound somewhat in between the U-20, 220 and the JV-1080.
It's architecture is up to 4 tones per Patch, and up to 4 Patches per Performance program. The Mondo Poly Performance program (I:47) is a layer of 4 Patches

Patch 1= a87 Lite Bell1
Patch 2= a88 Polysyn (a brassy Jump type sound)
Patch 3= a88 Polysyn (detuned for analogish chorusing)
Patch 4= a88 Polysyn (up an octave from Patches 2 and 3) volume reduced by 12%

Overall, the Performance program has Hall 2 reverb.

Velocity controls the filter cutoff frequency.
AfterTouch controls the filter cutoff frequency, and vibrato amount.

The attached mp3 attempts to give a listen to the individual elements, as well as what the AT controls.

0:00 to 00:08 Performance with all Patches
0:08 to 0:17 Patch 1 only
0:18 to 0:21 Patch 2 only
0:22 Patches 2, and 3 only
0:25 Patch 4 only
0:30 Patches 2, 3 , and 4
0:33 All Patches again
0:35 to 0:42 Demonstration of AT's action
0:43 Ham-fisted attempt at the hook line

I hope this sheds some light on the sound.

Cheers, Hanon

Wow! Thanks for this sample, I didn't see your answer before, I'll try it soon, it sounds very very goood !

Hi Fabin,
it's just the unique bell part of the D70, the rest can be done with VA synthesis.
(It's not a ready to wear sample).
Cheers, Hanon

Hi! They sound great. But I am not able to install the 2 Narcotic files. I just drag them in to the program section D but nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong? I use the actual sound manager and OS on my Stage 2
Thanks a lot!!
