I've recently bought a NS2EX Compact, and I can't find a certain leadsound I used for loads of things
It's a bit like the 'Cory Henry Lingus solo sound', and sounds familiar to preset 83 in the Nord Lead 2x. Can anyone help me build a program?
Thanks!

Post an mp3 of the sound you need and I will take a stab at it for you-

The one from around 5:15, I assume, and not the one around 8:20.

I will take a look at this for you tonight!
I can't play like that guy, though-

OK, did this rather quickly. Patch is a simple Square wave. Mod Envelope is in play, using more velocity will open the filter and add a little resonance. This is a single slot, so much more could be done, but I believe this emulates the basic King Korg sound he is using.
On Nords is often more a matter of "creating" than "finding" (the sounds you need )
PS: good job DJKeys, I'd just open the filter a little bit more to get richer sound also at lower velocities.

here I am agreeing with Max again. Nice job DJ. I swapped that synth program into a couple of my regular programs last night, but did open the filter just a little bit more for better body/bite at low velocities.
Bless,
Pablo

Thanks, guys. I was trying to find a setting that would not sound too thin/bright in the upper area of the keyboard. I tried KB tracking both on and off and this was the compromise.
I will try opening that filter and see what happens!

just a pinch, DJ -- that wasn't intended as criticism, really. Plus, you weren't trying to create a program to suit your ears, but to recreate the program the OP asked about. In that regard you were right on spot. I just happen to prefer a little more edge there for my purposes -- which are not to try to sound like a Snarky Puppy! (oh, but how I wish I could sound like that...)
