"This is possibly the greatest synthesizer ever made (no hyperbole)! You can create the most huge and complex sounds on this synth imaginable, and the level of control with all the knobs is more than you could ever make use of. It's a shame that Nord stopped making this series in favor of their organ and electric piano PCM players... and the fact that this synthesizer has not gone down in value one penny since it's release over a decade ago says it all! You will not find a better specimen of this legendary synth. It is expanded so no matter how DSP hungry the patch you create or download to play is, you will always have access to AT LEAST 8 voices, and for the less DSP starving patches, you are likely to have 16-24 voices! The sound is incredible (listen to Autechre's Oversteps album and Move of Ten EP, which were made entirely with this synth alone!)!. It has served me well, and taught me more than I ever thought I might learn about synthesis. And if you feel intimidated, you needn't. It is great for beginners also, with the vibrant online communities that support this synth, you could download other peoples patches, and never run out of beautiful and wild sounds to use without ever touching the editor yourself! However, I do think this synthesizer will give the most to those who put the most into it, and there is not better synth ever made for teaching you everything you want to know about synthesis, and there are also great online guides specifically for this synth you can follow that will allow you to grow as an electronic musician."
