You need to do bellowshakes with the thing! I do a polka gig every couple of weeks for retirement homes with a guy that uses one of the rolands, I actually though the organ was decent, probably a vk engine. But that accordian has some realistic sounds in it. He has some problems operating it though, I can't tell you how many times he switched sounds and landed on the bagpipes, and not once was the drone in the same key we were in!
Raisindot, YOU are correct. You win 1st prize. 2nd prize was $500. <g>My Roland accordion is the midi controller and the VST is VB3. It IS low in the mix. In the monitors I was louder but in the PA the mix was off. I had good audience response so I thought I was loud enough. A common problem for me.
Thanks for listening. I have a gig tonight (different band) and will be more forceful with the PA settings.

The organ itself sounds kind of VSTish to me...VB3 or the older Native Instruments B3 VST, although, again, it's hard to tell in the mix.

Not the typical jazz/rock featured here.Never practiced together. Just show up for gigs and jam. A good time was had by all. Do you recognize the instrument and/or the VST? It is a little long so if you are bored cut to the chase and listen to the last 2 minutes.Thanks,LooseBruce
