" Grandi cose vengono in piccoli pacchetti"

Prodotto comprato occasione in Ottobre 2011
Caratteristiche
Questa è la versione per montaggio a rack che significa senza tastiera, solo il modulo sonoro. È possibile eseguire la mossa completa 88 tasti con qualsiasi tastiera che è il passaggio di ottava o dispone di 88 tasti. La bellezza di questa bestia e la maggior parte dei prodotti Nord si offrono alternative gratuito al costruito nel preset. Essi possono essere trovati sul sito web del Nord. Le impostazioni di fabbrica si danno due Rodi, una whurly, un clavinet, e un impressionante emulazioni B3. Vedrete anche questi effetti: tipo Overdrive Tube, simulazione Rotary Speaker (lento, veloce, stop), Equalizzatore, Chorus (2 tipi), flanger (2 tipi), Phaser (2 tipi), Tremolo, Auto Wah, Wah regolari (2 tipi), Auto panning e la modulazione ad anello.
Il rack offre semplici modi per regolare quasi tutti i parametri necessari attraverso i menu di bordo / tasti / manopole. Può sembrare complicato, ma in realtà non lo è, dopo si spende un po 'di tempo con lui. Per quanto riguarda le connessioni, avete USB (principalmente per il collegamento al computer e trasferire suoni nuovi) MIDI IN e OUT, ingressi per il pedale sustain, velocità di rotazione e un pedale di controllo assegnabile e, infine, stereo (mono) e di uscita cuffie. Sì, questo è modificabile tramite un Mac / PC ed è necessario per scambiare set di suoni. Ha polifonia completa il che significa che può colpire ogni nota possibile e non "rubare" o essere "rubata" da un altro.

This is the rackmount version which means no keyboard, just the sound module. You can run the full 88 key gambit with any keyboard that has Octave switching or has 88 keys. The beauty of this beast and most other nord products is they offer Free alternatives to the built in presets. They can all be found on Nord's website. Factory settings give you two Rhodes, a whurly, a clavinet, and an awesome B3 emulations. You also get these effects: Tube type Overdrive, Rotary Speaker simulation (slow, fast, stop), Equalizer, Chorus (2 types), Flanger (2 types), Phaser (2 types), Tremolo, Auto Wah, regular Wah (2 types), Auto panning and Ring modulation.
The rack offers easy ways to adjust almost every parameter you need through the on board menus/buttons/knobs. It may look complicated, but it really is not, after you spend a little time with it. As for connections, you have USB (mainly for connecting to computer and transferring new sounds) midi in and out, pedal inputs for sustain, rotary speed and a control assignable pedal, and finally stereo (mono) output and headphones. Yes, this is editable through a Mac/PC and is necessary to swap sound sets. It has full polyphony which means you can hit every possible note and it won't "steal" or be "stolen" by another.

Facilità d'uso
Il suono e gli effetti di editing su questa bestia è estremamente semplice. E 'stato costruito per l'uso dal vivo e dimostra certamente che con gli 8 slot di memoria programmabile dall'utente e la sezione dedicata organo che ha un feedback visivo per bar tono individuale. Credo che la configurazione di questa unità è abbastanza semplice. Dovuto principalmente al fatto che emula solo "semplici" strumenti, semplice rispetto al synth oscillatore più con tutti i tipi di campane e fischietti. Questa unità è semplicemente un emulatore per pochi strumenti grande con alcuni parametri degli effetti e dei controlli degli organi. L'installazione è semplice come pluggin nel potere, i cavi audio (ad un mixer o amplificatore) e la tastiera midi preferite. L'unica volta che avevo bisogno del manuale è stato quello di comprendere meglio lo swap set di suoni, e sì, è stato molto utile e ben scritto.
The sound and effect editing on this beast is extremely simple. It was built for live use and certainly proves that with the 8 user programmable memory slots and the dedicated organ section that has visual feedback for individual tone bars. I believe the configuration of this unit is quite simple. Mainly due to the fact that it only emulates "simple" instruments, simple compared to multi oscillator synths with all sorts of bells and whistles. This unit is simply an emulator for a few great instruments with some effect parameters and the organ controls. Setup is as simple as pluggin in the power, the audio cables (to a mixer or amp) and your favorite midi keyboard. The only time I needed the manual was to better understand swapping sound sets, and yes, it was very helpful and well written.
Suono
I suoni sono sorprendentemente buoni, e questo è un vecchio modello. L'unica cosa che soffre è la patch scaricabile pianoforte. Non sono orribili con qualsiasi mezzo, ma non offrono il realismo che si ottiene da altri strumenti. Anche in questo caso, questi sono i suoni antichi come hanno rilasciato nuovi strumenti e librerie di suoni da allora. L'espressività è a posto. Credo che se non hai visto il mio M audio controller Midi sul palco, si potrebbe pensare che stavo giocando la versione reale di questi strumenti, almeno in una situazione live. Gli effetti sono molto buona. Tutti riproducono fedelmente il suono e il colore ci si aspetta da offerte reali. Sono rimasto deluso che non c'era alcun ritardo, ma ciò che farai?. Il rotativo è particolarmente dolce e imita in realtà un leslie molto bene. Mi piace anche il Coro anche molto. Il mod anello è un pò debole, ma ho il Moog 102 come un confronto così ...... Quello che suona mi piace di più? Tutti tranne il Pianoforti Acustici. La B3 sembra ottenere il massimo attenzione da parte del pubblico, ma io personalmente amo le patch Rodi. Mi hanno salvato (e la mia schiena) da luggin intorno al mio 88 tasti MK1.
The sounds are surprisingly good, and this is an older model. The only thing that suffers is the downloadable piano patches. They are not horrible by any means but they don't offer the realism that you get from the other instruments. Again, these are old sounds as they have released new instruments and sound libraries since. The expressiveness is spot on. I believe if you didn't see my M audio Midi Controller on stage, you would think I was playing the real versions of these instruments, at least in a live situation. The effects are very good as well. They all faithfully reproduce the tone and color you would expect from the real deals. I was disappointed that there was no delay, but what are you gonna do?. The rotary is especially sweet and really mimics a leslie very well. I also like the Chorus a lot too. The ring mod is kinda weak, but I have the Moog 102 as a comparison so...... What sounds do I like the best? All of them except the Acoustic Pianos. The B3 seems to get the most attention from the audience, but I personally love the Rhodes patches. They saved me (and my back) from luggin around my 88 key MK1.
Opzioni Generali
Quello che mi piace di più questa unità è il fatto che riproduce fedelmente il suono e la gloria di tutti questi vintage, strumenti costosi e molto pesanti in una piccola scatola rack. Finché non avrò roadies che farà tutto il mio lavoro pesante dopo uno spettacolo, sarò affidamento su prodotti Nord. L'unica cosa che non mi piace di questo apparecchio è che non è possibile aggiornare la libreria di suoni nuovi. Anche questo è prevedibile in quanto l'unità è avanti negli anni ma sono anche deluso dal fatto che essi non rilasciare un Nord Electro Rack 3. Ho già una tastiera che mi piace e lo spazio è limitato, quindi non voglio comprare un'altra tastiera. Ho avuto questa unità per $ 750 e sono molto felice con quel prezzo, soprattutto perché sembrano essere venduto per molto di più su ebay, il che significa che posso migliorare lungo la strada e magari anche fare un po 'troppo $. Ho dato un 9 su 10 solo perché i pianoforti acustici sono un pò sottili. Ho usato synth tanti diversi software e hardware per riprodurre questi strumenti che la lista sarebbe così a lungo. Quelli da notare sarebbe Scarbee le librerie Kontakt (molto buona, ma può essere cpu fame), nativo plugin Instruments, Korg Triton, e Motif Yamaha. Credo che il Nord li batte tutti però. Sì, se vedo un altro a questo prezzo, potrei prendere quella troppo.
What I like most about this unit is the fact that it faithfully reproduces the sound and glory of all these vintage, expensive and very heavy instruments in a small, rackmountable box. Until I have roadies that will do all my heavy lifting after a show, I will be relying on Nord products. The only thing I don't like about this unit is I cannot update to the newest sound Library. That is too be expected since the unit is getting on in years but I am also disappointed that they didn't release a Nord Electro Rack 3. I already have a keyboard I like and space is limited so I don't want to buy another keyboard. I got this unit for $750 and I am very happy with that price, especially because they seem to be selling for much more on ebay, which means I can upgrade down the road and maybe even make a little $ too. I give it a 9 out of 10 only because the acoustic pianos are kinda thin. I have used so many different software and hardware synths to reproduce these instruments that the list would be way to long. Ones to note would be Scarbee's Kontakt libraries (very good but can be cpu hungry), Native Instruments plugins, Korg Triton, and Yamaha Motif. I believe the Nord beats them all however. Yes, if I see another one at this price, I might just pick that one up too.
