Check out my full version of this tune on acoustic accordion! https://youtu.be/vqPb8XAuN04

This video demonstrates the instrument's ability to sound like a real accordion! Reason has a handful of different accordion patches, but they don't sound particularly realistic on their own, so I decided to combine them. Each channel (melody, bass, and chords) has multiple accordion patches hooked up to them to produce a fuller, more realistic sound (like hitting the Master switch on a real acoustic accordion).

This is one of my favorite tunes from Diddy Kong Racing (composed by David Wise), and it's perfect for the accordion!
