Hi:
I have been unsuccessful so far in getting a very popular and sweet electric piano sound on my keyboards. I expect to be able to be part of the presets for Yamaha MODX8, a keyboard that I own, but.....no dice. The sound was used by the keyboard player for Earth Wind and Fire, in a live show when they were playing "After the Love is Gone." The URL of the YouTube recording of it is below:



Can any keyboard player who knows this sound help me out?
Thanks

Patrick
 
Sounds like a cross of the DX7 and the Roland fantasia preset to me
 
Hi Rob,
Thanks for your reply. I was in a Vietnamese grocery store the other day, and they had a TV which was playing live music from an Oriental music group. The keyboard player was using that same exact sound. He was playing the Yamaha MOXf8 keyboard which is an older keyboard workstation. So I thought that with my newer Yamaha MODX8, it would surely have that sound. In other words I had my doubts that Yamaha would exclude that electric piano sound on the keyboard that came later. Anyway thanks. Here is the sound again from youtube. If anyone has knowledge of the MOXf8 and can tell me which sound preset is on that keyboard workstation I will try to go from there.

 
Well, I just fired up my Kawai MP11 and connected Roland Integra 7.
The first EP voice I tried on the MP11 was close.
On the Integra 7, there were a whole bunch of Tine electric piano voices that sounded similar.
I do have a MOXF6, and the DX Legend voice sounds close, also Galaxy DX.
I'd say just dig oround looking at Tine voices.
 
Thank you very much. I played around with another Yamaha keyboard and found something similar. I am happy with it and started recording with it yesterday evening. Thank you
