Oye Como Va

[jaspeter]

This zip file contains the Stage Setting and the Percussion file needed to reproduce the sound in the included sample MP3. Don't forget to update the phrase location in the stage setting with whatever phrase slot you end up using for the percussion loop.

I heard this song on a long road trip recently and I couldn't help but think about how to replicate it on the PX-5S. For hours, I tried many different settings and tried to "brew" my own effects, but I found that layering the stock Distortion Organ patch with an octave higher worked surprisingly well! Unfortunately, we don't have a lead guitar player in the band, so I probably won't actually use this, but I enjoyed the challenge.

 

Edit:  Well, I'm trying to delete this post, since I realized I should have put it in the Song Ready download area.  That doesn't seem to be easy/obvious/possible.  Or I'm missing something completely obvious, which isn't unlikely, either.

Edit 2:  I almost forgot to mention the controls!  Sliders 1 and 2 control the two organ layers.  Pedal 1 switches between fast and slow rotary, which also switches between the C1 and C3 chorus settings.  Pedal 2 toggles the percussion off and on.
