I finally had a chance to play one of these a few months back and I could not stop playing it for it's unbelievable. When I returned home and to my studio I was still inspired to play but my Motif XF couldn't come close so I ran it through a 24 band eq still no dice. It's the sample I know that. This will be my next keyboard without doubt. Be warned for once you play one all of your other equipment will fall short.

I'm closing my eyes and listening to the music ... then Chris starts to speak and all I hear is Frosty the Snowman.

Hey Chris, at around 5:50, how did you what sounds like change the delay time without getting that weird pitch shifting oscillator type-sound? It's a great effect! I'm on a Nord Stage 2 as well. Thanks.

Does anyone know if the Stage 3 has any drum patches and drumtracks?

[cjpearceyt]

Hey Chris amazing playing as always - can you tell me what you have connected it to? A keyboard amp? Studio monitors? What make etc? Thanks

[tune]

You would probably laugh at my ignorance, but I wanted to know if any Nords come with preset backing drum rhythms or even styles like arranger keyboards?

[rcarrillo]

60 voice polyphony? That's it? The original motif had 64 voice polyphony back in 2001...

[marcellocomandulli]
