Members SeanGuitar Posted June 10, 2006 Members Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hey guys, I am still pretty new to keyboards and I was just wondering if you could help me out with identifying this sound... Its basically just like a piano kind of sound except softer and with a softer attack... like a piano or percussive intrument with the high end rolled off and a soft attack but I am not sure if it is something you could easily synthesize or if its a family of sounds that you can get easily as nice samples. If you guys get what I'm talking about maybe you could point me in the right direction... I really like this family of sounds. If you listen to this song, the sound I am talking about comes in panned hard right around 2:05. It's a remix by the raging brothers of a song by a great guitarist named Justin King. So Close.mp3 The same kind of sound plays a prominent role in a keane song although I dont know the name of the song. It seems pretty common. Thanks for any help!

Members Allerian Posted June 10, 2006 Members Share Posted June 10, 2006 Sounds like your basic electric piano sound to me. You'll find it and many variations in most romplers like the Yamaha Motif. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mate_stubb Posted June 10, 2006 Members Share Posted June 10, 2006 Specifically, it's the sound of a Fender Rhodes electric piano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mchristi Posted June 10, 2006 Members Share Posted June 10, 2006 agreed. sounds like a rompler version of a rhodes. less attack, with some standard delay and reverb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SeanGuitar Posted June 10, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 10, 2006 Cool, thanks guys. I figured it would be an electric piano sound but for some reason the e piano patches on my getto soundbank that came with my keyboard sound nothing like it... probably because its ghetto I'm guessing. Any idea what kind of software I would need to get a good sound of that going? All I really have is the software that came with my x board 49, sonar, and some random plug ins for sonar that don't have any sounds as far as I know.

You should buy a rhodes I did and I don't even use the thing that much, yet I still love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For software, get the Mr Ray 2.2 and Mr Ray 73 from www.soundfonts.it They use physical modelling, so no samples what so ever. I like them both a lot. Best.
