What patch on the Nord Electro were you using? Did you do any tweaking on that one? Also, Did you use the Nord Electro 1 or 2.

@GospelMusicians Mark1 w flat EQ and a bit of overdrive. It's a NE2.

how did you get it to sound like an old rhodes? is that just the recording with the slight distortion or are you using effects. I hear a little delay maybe some overdrive?

[groovatious]

@tyleryesta1 The OD is coming from the Nord - apart from that, just a touch of reverb.

great playing! If I may ask, what hardware are you using for your backing track?

[groovatious]

@timlim21 No hardware, it's an MP3.

Wow man I've been listening to all your videos and you have such a groove...I'ts impossible. Like a previous commenter said, the only drawback is the digital musicians not following your lead :P

Mike, I feel like stunnedf by a horse and want to stop piano playing for ever.How come we´ve never heard of you over here in Germany.They should print full-size posters of YOU instead of all those other mediocre guys. Your canta Island version is my special favourite. I´ve seen Herbie improvising solo on the Leno show. He is not better. How can you make that digital thing sound so natural? Please, give us more of your art here on youtube.

(Afraid this sounds too exaggerated to everybody else)
