Hi,

I'm curious about what piano sample is Patrick Hetherington using on the Nord Electro in this set. I'm thinking of an upright, maybe the Pearl Upright, which has this kind of "old piano" sound.. it reminds a little bit of the bambino but I don't think it's that one.
I was wondering about that because it is a sound I would not necessarily use in this context but it works very well, specially when the Wurlitzer is playing the same voicings.

This is the link to the video (Tiny desk Concert)


Thanks,

Pol

I don’t have anyput regarding the piano-sound, but damn this was a enjoyable performance!!!

Just my guess.
The White grand.

If you liked that, RUN, don't walk, to check out this here:



This is among the best music to come out of the last decade, no kidding. Also available as a full album on Vinyl and digital. No affiliation; I'm just indescribably happy every time I put that on.

Oh, and er, relevance: there's a nord or two in that live setup.

Nice music! And... whatever the sample, he is playing that piano on a SW73

The piano sounds layered, like there's a chorus or two acoustics (even when it's not doubled by the Wurli — how good are those guys, eh!)
