3 patches.
The first for the beginning of the song with a clap on the E1.
The second for the verse (chord on 4 every 2 bars) always with the clap on E1.
The third for the chorus.

I've recorded all of the vocal samples and uploaded to the ns2, from the intro 'doos' to 'hot damn' and the other stuff too. Also got that prince type synth. Use my fantom for the horns. Anybody want the other stuff, just hollar yo

Yes I will.
I can not seem to find the sound that starts at 0m59s and ends at 1m 05 s. A sound that rises.
Thanks

Here you go guys. Not tried it on my nord yet as it's in a van. Samples are as follows;
D1, F1, G1 - 'Doos as per intro'
C2 - 'Ahhhhh' (after the horn break)
C#2 - 'Hot Damn'
D2 - High D 'ooooo"
I've also re-uploaded a patch which I got from another user here 'Prince_OBXa'
I use this for the oberheim type noise, think Prince 1999 Intro. This particular patch uses the two slots which screws you up, but I found that using slot B (I think!!) works fine by itself for the Uptown Funk tune. I think I added like a rotary effect, or something, LFO, whatever, can't remember. Use the other slot for the samples above. I use a Fantom G for the horn sounds which sounds awesome. Horn sounds I've heard for the nord are rank in general.
For the sound some of you were talking about where it just rises in pitch, I use the iPad app Morphwiz with a sound I made up.
