"While cosmetically a little rough, this fully working Kurzweil Midiboard has possibly the nicest action and key feel you'll ever get from a keyboard. Although not a hammer action design, the keybed feels solid and weighty just like a real piano. Whether you're a hobbits or someone who needs the best of the best, this Kurzweil has got you covered."

Nord Lead Rack Rackmount Virtual Analog Synthesizer

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this eBay listing

"This is the original and by far the best sounding Nord Lead of them all. While i think that all nord leads are special and amazing, the original just has a bolder, more analog like sound.. very capable of delivering classic tones ranging from Oberheim, Prophet 5, Junos and Moog basses, leads and textures. it all work great.. no operational issues. A couple things to note.. the PCMCIA slot was removed by previous owner, never bothered us, we never needed to store / load anything from an obsolete PCMCIA card.. computers do that job just fine for us. Also, the Decay knob has a tilt to it.. could prob bend it back straight, but again, we never felt the need to do so."

Nonlinear Labs C15 - CINEMATIC - the new Sound Designer Bank by Kevin Schroeder (Hans Zimmer)

video upload by Nonlinear Labs

"In this video, Tim Sund introduces all 51 presets of the new CINEMATIC Bank by German sound designer Kevin Schroeder. In this sound set Kevin draws from the full and proves why film composer Hans Zimmer has entrusted him with the sound design for his film scores since Wonder Woman 1984.

In all examples the ribbons display the movement of the two expression pedals.
The sound was recorded directly with the C15's internal recorder and was not processed in any way.

Kevin´s bank as well as the banks of the other sound designers, who have created sounds for the C15, can be downloaded here: https://www.nonlinear-labs.de/support...
