Manfred Mann: "Blinded by the night"

Post by bully »

Hallo.

I´m searching for the keyboard sound, that is used by Manfred Mann during the first verse of "Blinded by the night". That staccato-sound.
Is this sound available for my stage 2 ex?

sorry for my englisch

Try a combination of percussive B3 and Fender Rhodes

Manfred Mann used a Hammond B3 with special percussion (I think THIRD)

In my Nord5d I use
a) the ePiano4 (MK V) with PHASE1 (2.8 hz) - for the part, you are looking for
b) the P5 Saga Synth with DRIVE (1.1)
c) the organ is a simple B3

Good luck and cheers

Yeah it kind of sounds like just the percussion with most of the drawbars turned off, layered with a Rhodes of some type. Very cool ethereal sound. That song is so good :-)
