NAMM 2020: Nord Wave 2 Sounds

Published on Jan 17, 2020 Perfect Circuit

"Nord's Wave 2 is an update of one of their most interesting instruments, providing deep options for layering diverse ranges of sound.

The Wave 2 can produce up to four layers (timbres) at once, each with independent selection of sound production method. The included sound engines provide access to virtual analog synthesis, FM, wavetable synthesis, and sample playback...meaning that the Wave 2 can sound like basically anything you want. Create complex splits and layers, and morph multiple parameter values in real time: the Wave 2 is a sound designer's dream.

Perhaps most interestingly, Wave 2's sample engine supports the use of user
samples via Nord's Sample Editor 3 software. You can either assign specific
samples to specific keys or use samples across entire stretches of the keyboard—meaning that you can create Mellotron-like playback from any sound, or construct unique kits of sound effects. With every sound in the world within reach, the Wave 2 is one of the most interesting keyboards at the NAMM show this year.
