Hello everybody!
this is my first post here, I take this opportunity to greet everyone, I'm Emanuele from Genoa (Italy).
My synth is a Yamaha S90ES and I'm still learning.

I'm writing this message because I fell in love with the sound that Sam Beste uses in these two pieces of Amy:

The keyboard is the same as mine, which has really good EPs, but this it doesn't seem an internal patch.
The reaason why I love this EP sound is that the bass part is little metallic, pasty and warm.
Can anybody help me?

Thank you!

It's wurlitzer definitely (you may already know that though...) and a pretty good one at that. Digital wurlies sound good played softly like this until you push them, then the digital comes out and they fail IMHO.

Thank you for your answer! Actually I discovered the wurly only recently, thanks to a beautiful video that presents it and makes you listen to some songs in which it was played. It has a really beautiful sound.
Now I will study how to find a similar sound on my synth, I can not afford the real one :D
