Baeager Honeybunz Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Hello, my partners band is doing a Janet Jackson tribute. He's trying to find the right patches & sounds to play on his keyboards. Has anyone done this song full force, or have ideas on what sounds will get it closest to the track? Any help is greatly appreciated!

tapes Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I don’t hear that many keyboards in it… The main overdriven wah guitar could be a sampler, also the acoustic guitar is clearly a ROMpler patch. The song (along with most of Janet’s catalog) was again produced by Jam & Lewis, and they were very famously preset hounds. They used mostly Ensoniq and Roland gear. So as a keyboardist I’d probably play that acoustic guitar pattern, maybe an M1 type nineties piano, and some synth strings. For the fake acoustic guitar any ROMpler of the era or later - any Motif, Fantom - will do. Make sure they nail that ”new jack swing” groove and feel, though! Not easy to do at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
