Nord Stage Revision C Piano + OS v3.0

"The Nord Stage family will receive a minor cosmetic make-over, due to one new function in the operating system that is activated from an existing button. The new models will be named revision C.... " The update features new piano samples and "Another example is a Clavia first - an Italian harpsichord that has been recorded at the Swedish Radio's state of the art studios. More of these wonderful instruments will appear in a Nord Stage near you later this year - there is a Flemish and also a French harpsichord in the development pipeline. A preview of these new sounds will be available here shortly." You can find full specs on the update on Califaudio.

RAB 20 - Donkey's New Keyboard Rig in Action

Remember Donkey's new keyboard rig? The episode is up. You can watch it here [not safe at all]. For those of you not familiar with RAB, it's from Dave of umop who brought us such gems as The Packrat, Parallax and the art for Metasonix, as well as these videos.

And..lf you haven't guessed it already, RAB is NEVER safe for work, never safe for anything. You will repent. If you are easily, or even difficult to be offended, do not watch it. Consider yourself warned.
