electric piano tweaking

Take preset 87. You don't want to use a preset anyway. Layer scene 1 
and scene 2 (dual) Take scene 1 and turn the wet dry mixture so the 
effect is totally wet. Put the effect on Phase Shift. Put it on Stage 
8 increase the mod freq and decrease the amount of phase so you get a 
vibrato. Turn the volume down on scene 1 to blend it in and increase 
the attack time on the filter and the amplitude.This gives a little 
bit of a pad behind the electric piano sound.

Scene 2 should be dry.

Turn up the feedback on both scenes so there's a good umph when you 
hit the keys. Set the Free EG so the tuning drifts a little. I set 1 
on Scene 1 Osc 1 fine tune so the fine tuning drifts a couple of 
cents. 2 I take the Pmod Depth for Osc 2 Scene 1 and have it go from 
0 to 2 or three gradually. 3 adjust the fine tuning of Osc 1 Scene 2. 
4 change the sync pitch a little.

Make sure the mod wheel affects osc 1 and osc 2 pmod depth. Don't set 
the amount to much more than 9. Turn the LFO up to about 130 so the 
mod wheel gives a nice added vibrato.

Once this is done go to the matrix and detune the sound a little and 
add a little separation. Now you have a perfect patch for when you 
have to play a ballad behind Brittany.
