♫ Jamming With a Bunch of Synths ♫ ----- (79)


video upload by

"This jam is a little weird. My phone was on low battery which made the video slightly glitchy. I was a bit distracted during this recording so it's maybe a bit more boring than usual. There is also a couple mysterious audio drop outs near the end of the video. I didn't notice these prior to uploading so it's possible something went wrong when combining the audio and video files or something.

NAMM 2024 - Nord - Nord Grand 2


video upload by sonicstate

"At NAMM 2024, Sonic State had the opportunity to catch up with Matt at the Nord booth, where he presented the latest iteration of the Nord Grand, aptly named the Nord Grand 2. With four years since the release of the original Nord Grand, the Grand 2 boasts exciting updates that elevate the playing experience. The standout enhancement is the incorporation of a new generation of Kawai premium hammer action keybed, now featuring a triple sensor for heightened responsiveness. The layout of the Grand 2 is reminiscent of the Nord Stage 4, offering two independent layers with LED faders for both the piano and sample sections, allowing musicians to effortlessly layer up to four elements simultaneously. Matt delves into the details of the new dynamic compression in the piano section, designed to reduce the dynamic range without sacrificing the nuances of the piano sound. Additionally, he introduces the added unison feature to enhance EP sounds. The effects section sees significant improvements, now allowing independent effects for each layer, providing musicians with greater flexibility in sound shaping. Matt concludes the walkthrough with a demonstration of the choral reverb, a new addition that contributes to the evolving realism and feel of the Nord Grand 2.

Sequential OB-6 Epic Pad & Lead


video upload by NGC0 Music

"After a few weeks without any music (I've just moved to a new place, and it took a few weeks to set everything up again), I've finally had time to have some fun with the OB-6. I'm using the Nord as a controller due to the extra octaves (by opening up 1 octave further, these pads can get much much bigger)."

2024 (1996) Virtually Analog Synth Calendar by DinDrum Audio



via DinDrum

Note it appears to be a digital download you print out yourself.

"I wanted to have a synth calendar to hang on my studio wall, so I made one.

Why 1996?

1996 is the same calendar as 2024, so being a synth nerd I made my "Virtually Analog 1996 Calendar" for 2024.

Featuring the synths just released and available in 1996 (this new Virtual Analog technology allowed these Digital Synths to emulate the Analog synths of the past) The Roland JP-8000 , the original nord lead and the Korg Prophecy (also featured physical modeling technology).

Nord Rack 2 virtual analog synth jam, only using digital synth for all melodic sounds, with Ableton


video upload by Expanding Sound

https://expandingsound.com

I know digital synths, especially virtual analog style aren't really all that sought after. Analog or bust seems to be the mindset of most musicians these days, so when this thing came into my possession I wasn't all that excited to test it out. After breaking it out for this jam I will say I was pleasantly surprised. I don't subscribe to the idea that some pieces of gear are terrible, more so they just might not be the right tools for a specific job.

All sounds are from the Nord Rack 2, except the drums. I couldn't make a snare drum sound I liked on the synth so I just made a rack in Ableton.
There is a little delay and reverb on some patches but that's basically it, besides that it's just the rack. #nord #synth #synthesizer #Ableton #music"

3 Reasons to Try DAWless


video upload by Jeremy Parker

"Here's my latest DAWless setup for live MIDI sequencing with my hardware synths. It centers around the Retrokits RK008, with my Nord Stage 4, miniKORG 700fs, Moog Minitaur and Elektron Analog Rytm MKII. Although I love using my main DAW, Cockos Reaper, for producing finished music, there are 3 advantages that this DAWless setup has, a couple of which were a little unexpected. And there is a bunch of good original music that came right out of this new setup, so enjoy!

A case/stand I designed for the RK008: https://www.printables.com/model/5981...
