nord electro 3 / Wurlitzer Demo / What'd I Say

[@mayer8356]

This just made my KZbin day. I really need a Nord Electro 3 in my life.

[@christophertolmie6572]

That finger roll tho!!!! 👏👏👍👍 (0:32 - 0:43 - 0:58 - 1:32)

[@ROMULOVOCAL]

ohhhh yeahhh very cool sound Ray Charles!!!! I like this Nord!!!! thanks!!!!

[@Keyboardman88]

Great Whirly sound. I have a Nord Electro 2 and the Whirly sounds just like this. Great playing.

[@TheJesseMusic]

I FREAKING LOVE YOUR COVER! I don't know why, or wait, i do, but it's hard to explain, you should make a version of this where you can actually see what you're playing. A top/overhead view perhaps?

[@claudedupras2492]

Sounds great

[@CharlesFreshly]

This guy just killed it! Sounds almost like Jamie Foxx playing in Ray. Of course patters and whatnot differ a bit. But props to his style and creativity!

[@dazzjazz]

Hey great playing!

[@Pimpnastyy]

[@vlad1gavrilchik]

[@Tuganotube]

[@jfinn440]

@brettorrmusic My thoughts exactly.

[@TPBass1224]

Awesome!!!!

[@brettorrmusic]

Yep it's time to practice my left hand work... and buy a Nord.

[@Wonka275]

Ahaha, as a proud owner of a Rhodes suitcase myself, I am all too familiar with the weight! Ahhahaha!

[@pontushenrikson]

Nice man :)

The Nords have a nice Wurli sound, but their sound is more like the 200 or 200A models than the earlier Wurlitzer model 120 that Ray Charles used to record "What'd I Say". Each of the Wurlis that were most widely used in the late 1950s through the 1970s, i.e., models 120 (What'd I Say), 140B (Mercy, Mercy, Mercy, I Heard It Through the Grapevine), and the 200/200As (My Best Friend, the Logical Song) have very distinct sound qualities because of a variety of build, mechanical and acoustic differences. So, as good as the Nord Wurlitzer sound is, it really doesn't effectively emulate the original Wurli sound heard on "What'd I Say" And no level of "tweaking" of the acoustics of the Nords will make it so until they have a sound option that samples or models the Wurli 120.

Hot shit man!

[@lashknife01]

I agree, the yamaha and korg attempts dont sound like a real rhodes to me (but can sound ok in their own right, just not like the real thing). The if you play with the eq and overdrive on the nords you can get pretty close to any rhodes sound you want (in my opinion) However I'm yet to try the new Korg svp-1, that looks like it challenge the nords (but it doesnt have that killer organ section)

[@mayer8356]

I tried one out in a shop the other day, it's so nice but so friggin' expensive

[@retrogorilla]

I've got a Nord 3 (61) and can't seem to get it sounding quite as cool as that - what are your keyboard/amp settings (roughly)?? Thanks and GREAT playing!

[@canadianman000]

Sounds like one of the 140 or 112 samples.

[@johnsontunes]

Do you how heavy is a original rodhes, and how heavy is a NE?

[@arezootalebi4576]

Sehr schöne, lebendige Darbietung des instrumentalen Anteils. Auch den Akkord (Em) richtig gespielt, machen nicht alle. Kleine Mängel in der Tonqualität, viel Klirr (distortion) und ungünstiger Raumklang. Aber insgesamt ein schönes Stück.

[@PEDRESINA]

Nice song, grate performer and excelent keyboard. Can you plaese send me the score to my mail? Many thanks and greetings from Portugal.

[@MjrHop]

How can you afford these?

[@jomarcavalcanti]

Korg Legacy Collection Analog

[@MaxJNorman]

@RickJames093 why?

[@davidhernandez-uw1gj]

😂

[@Wonka275]

Why play a Nord when you have a perfectly good Rhodes Suitcase back there?! :D

[@tamistamistamis]

It seems to me that a Wurlitzer sound is never really well imitated. The classic Rhodes sound is by far more realistic than any Wurly imitation. I don't know why...

[@geomiezzi]

Non ci passa nemmeno vicino

[@Kahva123]

Troll or you really don't know what your talkin' about ^^

[@RickJames093]

if youre demoing a song at least play it as its played on the recording

[@hashungah]

Please don't. Just keep it like the live version, since you're not in a studio. Thanks.
