Hello, someone knows what sounds can be used to get the keyboard playing the theme of The Who: Won't Get Fooled Again in format NS3 (nord stage 3) ????
In the forum there are nord stage 2 files but they are not compatible with the nord stage 3
Thank you

There's a great video on YouTube about Pete Townsend's use of a Lowrey organ through various electronics at that might give you some ideas. I haven't worked on this one but I would find a good organ wave (#8?) or sample, set the LFO to pulse at the tempo needed (rather than manually play it), and morph the WAH effect to the control pedal. The WAH will introduce a lot midrange to the sound, so I would EQ the synth to take some of that back out. Take care
UPDATE: Bit the bullet this morning and followed the steps above programming this using the OSC1 Wave 8 "Wave Organ #1". I learned just enough for the demo mp3, hope you like it. Everyone is welcome to take a stab at improving it and posting it on this thread. Take care.

Sounds cool - please let me know your synth settings and which specific organ - that would be amazing

Thanks - the program is posted above with the MP3 example. For the Slot A synth I used Wave 8 ("Wave Organ #1") and for the Slot B synth I used a triangle wave to fatten up the sound a little. For both synths the LFOs are set with the square wave and synced to the clock, the control pedal covers the Wah effect, and EQ is used to pull out some of the midrange. Try it out with your keyboard set up across the range of the control pedal and adjust the midrange EQ as needed to make sure there isn't a frequency range coming through too strong compared to the rest. Some add a phase shifter to their programs for additional effect - I might try that too. Take care.

Can you make youtube video? I'm a new owner of stage 3

Hello, welcome to the forum! The Stage 3 program for the song is posted above for your use. The program requires a Control Pedal to use the Wah effect. In case you are interested, there's a whole set of Nord tutorials by member "My Keys to Music" on the YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_xKuR ... BvAc63Y9qw (thanks Marc!).Take care.
