I'm also interested in a patch for the Stage 3 for the song "I Want to Know What Love Is".
Has anyone already created one?

Thanks a lot for your answers.[/quote]

Perhaps try this: After listening to the part, I stepped through the synth presets to 1:24 Bell Pad, set Attack at zero for Mod Env and Amp, mixed Osc 1 and 2 equally, and set the vibrato on longest delay (you can morph to aftertouch if you'd prefer). It will get you fairly close. Adding delay effect and reverb will help finish it up. Good luck to you.

I am not one to call my programming "authentic"...but if my band were to add this song, I would show up at the first rehearsal with this patch and tweak filter / envelopes / panel mixes on the fly and resave it.

give it a shot...Mod Wheel swells the Ah Pad

Hi everybody,

With the hints from WanitBBBad (using a Bell Pad 1:24) I put together a patch. Thanks to WanitBBBad for the helpful tips.

Here another patch compiled with the hints of WanitBBBad (using a Bell Pad 1:24); in slot B I added 1:02 Soft pad 2 (morphed with control pedal) and EP Nefertiti and in Slot A you find the Bell pad and Piano Ballad EP 1. Surely it's not the original sound for the song, but it works for me and many other rock ballads of the 80ties.
