    Emulator electromechanical keyboards for years 50/60/70.

    Rhodes
    Wurlizer
    Hammond
    Clavinnet D6

    UTILIZATION

    Easy handling and intuitive utilasteurs the original versions of the instruments will not be emulated disoriented.
    The instrument is really fun to use, it is very "musical" unlike many synths on the market.

    SOUNDS

    No comment!
    The listening was falling in love.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It is difficult not to become extreme with this keyboard.
    For once, I think I buy a musical instrument and not a erzatz.
    Only downside is difficult to trouevr in France, I had to buy it in germany mail order, plus it may be a little expensive.

No Pitch, No MIDI Modulation purpose of racing and drawbars tactile SysEx can act on other machines as (K2500R-K2600R-XMC1) in quality of remote control.
    The fundamental particularity of this keyboard is that there is my opinion that trs little machine capable of reproducing these types of sounds. Even if I like the sounds of the Hammond XK-2 or the Roland VK, The Nord Electro possde dynamics and grain than any other machine possde. Having made my beginners and a Hohner D6 and Wurtz. I found similar sensations with this instrument.
    The effects are excellent and sufficient. Much as REPRESENTATIVES: Chorus, reverb, distortion, cab (s) leslie, percussion, etc..

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration and ergonomics of the machine is simple, that does not mean lgre. Programming is easy and intuitive. The edition of the sound is enjoyable on scne trs, more can be "dbrayer" the machine module in module Keyboard Organ in the blink of an eye and vice versa. The Nord Electro possde trs trs a big sound. More and more music professionals now use this keyboard 61/73 notes.

    SOUNDS

    The sounds are monstrous !!!!!! No ingnieur professional sound and sensitive DEFINITIONS an original sound type can not be insensitive to the Nord Electro. Its dynamics and its heat audible FontUnit trs versatile instrument. One may regret the ct mat of Roland VK8 but on a sound system, everything is adjustable. YAPAPHOTO.

    One can regret the quality of sound and Bright Classic Pianos that are a bit out of play by rapprot sounding Fender Rhodes, B3, Clavinet, Wurlitzer etc.. From the manufacturer APRS everything is in order with the new OS version. Esr updatable because the toy, if you dish!!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I worked with the Nord Electro when it was released and made a run in France. It's a really good keyboard and I have no parallle REFERENCE to report on a qualitprix. Even if I find out the VK8, the Nord Electro rpond Espree what is of such a machine. I try the Roland VK-8, Korg C3, Hammond XB2, XK2 Hammond XM1 & XMc1 Hammond B3 module Voce and Vk7 and Roland VK77 and even Emu B3 module.
    And then?
    All dpend the plane on which it is located over the ide we have of it ....

    Nord Electro 61!
    Well, good. Dr. Frog

    Emulation Rhodes, Wurlitzer, clavinet, B3

    Section effects (flanger, chorus, wah), overdrive, Leslie simulation, especially for the organ section 9 drawbars that can implement the same sound with a real Manir (LED zippers and not mcaniques, but works the same Manir)

    In short: a few well-chosen sounds trs and top quality for fans of electro. (I do not mean classical piano we all apparently agree that it should be fired and replaced, for example, by one of Rhodes supplmentaires on offer on the Clavia site, which could not be easier with a USB cable)

    UTILIZATION

    Trs simple to use, once you know how taient conus original instruments, which poses no problem because the manual is very well done on this trsdtaill point: one finds the explanation of all Controller located on the Clavinet, B3 and the other ... and Manir (trs Fidler) which renders these features Clavia Nord Electro on

    The edition is very simple

    The manual is perfect

    SOUNDS

    Sounds (except piano, again) are a vritable rve. I did my first concert with last night and I would not touch ground I felt so beautiful and powerful!

    The organ! Finally an organ sound brutal, mchant, dulcor not like other synths. Something sharp that will fit in!

    The Rhodes, Ah! The Rhodes. The clavinet ... good j'arrte

    In addition to the keyboard has a touch trs enjoyable to play percussion .... was lucky, at least for me.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I got this week, I had RV for years.

    Expensive but worth it, at least for me who used it mainly dj electric pianos, organs and clavinets on my big Triton studio twenty tons will be able to stay home now in the heart of my home studio.

    I DCID buying by reading the favorable reviews on AudioFanzine trs. At the very least silent to come add my two cents ...

    Small precision: I do not work at Clavia, my girlfriend either.

    - The quality of the knobs, it's plastic does not look very strong ...
    - I t tonn see the choice they made for the "dash" of the organ: it is like a mouse, it's buttons, you click on it rp tribution to vary the sound ... nothing to do with real drawbars organ to play it live plutt means.

    SOUNDS

    Sounds, it is the I do not understand the various opinions. I t trs trs of trsdsagrablement!

    - Acoustic pianos blah, ok, everyone says ...
    - Organs: all take a B4, it is better (a shame)
    - Electrical: I think that also give different VSTis much better ... I do not speak even sounds samples of Rhodes and others that I have cost the sweating ... DO has transpired the digital background ... sounds cool and all rights, with what I could see little paramtres hacking sound ...

    - Effects: no reverb, cruel missing, the rest seemed correct, but given the basic sounds ... really means to realize ...

    Gnrale dynamics as it is in the same vein, has seemed relatively flat ...

    I'm beginning to understand, in retrospect, why a guy I bought used for my little presonus BLUETUBE Global Warming this keyboard ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    J'tais trs attracted by this keyboard because of the enthusiasm that surrounded, for its weight also lightweight, have a very easy transport. I was looking mostly acoustic piano, for a live view could have done, and j'tais sduit by other instrumentals for my recording needs etc ...

    trs big disappointment: the weakness of the acoustic piano would be a sign of core samples mdiocres, I see it applied to all sounds almost as clear buy ... VSTis the corresponding best, or the sampler with a good cd sampler ...

    I know in comparison: B4, EVP73, any sound samples that I take in my life that ASR10 almost alone, P90 or real acoustic pianos ... and demos of various programs and samplers costs right left ...

    UTILIZATION

    Perfect for Live!

    SOUNDS

    I wanted to go back to the guy who post 5 / 10 on the sound.
    Not agree, the B4 VSTi even if it possde a good quality sound, I find worse than the Nord Electro, precisely because of the dynamics. A VSTi is flat as a pancake.
    The EVP73 it's the same! It's flat as the pancake is going to have you to put a ton of affetti derrire!
    The Nord Electro mode B3 is rougher and more potatoes soon as you metter the few effects that we are proposing, well most of the sound is lbr /> No effect supplmentaire ass electro sounds while the North alone.

    But Rhodes, Wurly, the CP80, the B3 possde really a grain. and given the weight of the machine to Live ... there is no better.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I referrer this choice without any problem.
    I count myself even more Spar machine.
    For the Nord Electro possde sounds I need and basta.

    You can not link the sound and it's a shame. No MIDI Through! At this price they could have the effort.

    I see the note down because you can not change the split point and it sucks, it has still not laid to Mac OS X interface, and then we would like the shuffled sounds (multitimbral and some reverb. authenticity should not rhyme with archasme and darkness (even in hammond xk and xk-2-3 and they put the reverb).

    Manuel trs clear, There's a small bonus facicule on the history of keyboards.

    SOUNDS

    The sound is .......... serious ........... when you love the music of the 70/80, and that practice can not remain insensitive to the north.
    Try it buy it!
    I was walking pygalle I returned I saw, I jou an hour, and I heated the map, c all.
    And weight !...... When we gig right left, apprcie ...
    Only BMOL, the sounds of acoustic piano (but bcanne is not for a while ..)
    Organs kill, kill rhodes.
    They should turn the piano sound and add a sound or moog arp or ...
    For the organ, a is 10 and for the rest, a is 7.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 2 weeks (I will update this opinion) and I'm delighted!
    The keyboard is perfect for the organ, but for the electric keyboard I beat up too .. deu the looks fragile, the PPRE is the only downside that I found.
    It is quite expensive, but hey, 've really got my money.
    I will date.

    Last update 09/01/04

    The organ is still the same, and I think the keyboard is made for a DEFINITIONS! Play the rhodes is difficult with synth keys. Since I fp2 I no longer use the sounds of fp for electric keyboard. So I think I do it again this choice for the hammond, but not for Rhodes. The samples are trs good, but indniablement below Scarbee!. Scarbee but it's software, then for scne is another story.

    Updated 26/02/05

    I still wanted to give day. I use the North for almost a year now. For organ sounds, just as serious, the touch is really made for a.
    To the sounds of Rhodes I think I found what I ESG. I played from a keyboard matre, dj's much better as a. The effects are really poustouflants. And samples as well, but only in some curves vlocits. That - that for everything like walking Just the Way You Are (Billy Joel) with a rhodes, a little tremolo and phaser, we believe it carrment.
    Same for what are you doing the rest of your life version Bill Evans ('from left to right ") with 4 rhodes I downloaded and a bit of tremolo and overdrive on it believe.
    But against the sound flat to me more when it comes to chorus, and I think it was just a lack of VLOC levels. The passage of a sample the other is visible (while in a trip that is not obvious at all).

    To overcome this problem I shuffled the sound of the north with its "stage rhodes" my fp2 and has made SERIOUS!

    The clavinet sounds really serious effects as well. on the other hand I wurli does not use either the PC that I find below the rest ... not talking about the piano.

    Take the keyboard for what it is: a monstrous ORGAN, having in the BONUS electric piano sounds and you will not be due (and certainly not the reverse)

    Good music.

    Everything is already said.

    UTILIZATION

    Very easy to use. Editing sounds is easy.
    When you plug another keyboard in the MIDI In port, then we have an organ with two manuals. It is of course different games set for each of the organ keyboards.

    SOUNDS

    Great vintage sound. However, we regret the poor quality of piano sound.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 9 years. I never had any problems. I recommend this keyboard.

    UTILIZATION

    We would like all manufacturers offer machines as easily accessible.
    - Keyboard very nice, very close to the organ vintage keyboards.

    The control software to load the different piano sounds can be easily installed on your PC and is very easy to use. You need a USB to load the sounds on the Nord Electro from your computer and sound card with MIDI to load the operating system (OS The last is the V3.0).

    * You must have a sound card with MIDI on your computer to change the OS of your Nord Electro.



    [b]SOUNDS[/b]

    This keyboard which includes much of the mythical sonnoritées keyboards of the 70 is the tool I was waiting for a long time!

    Everything is in a minimum of space, perfect for the scene .... although ... this keyboard is still fragile, mine is already gone for repair. The keyboard had a bad contact. In addition, the transformer is more noise from the movement that I was subjected (nothing serious).

    Sonoritées the machine was much improved since OS 1.1
    I moved successively from version 1.1 to version 3.0 thanks to the USB connection that allows to change his machine (a very good idea by now recovered all manufacturers! Thank clavia !!!).

    In the first version of the OS, the sounds of acoustic piano and clavinet were very poor but since the OS 2 (which the model correspont Nord Electro 2) sounds have evolved:

    * A Hammond B3 organ with drawbars own keyboard
    (These are diodes that are successively allumme)
    The keyboard is splitable in 2 parts with 2 different organ sounds (effects apply to 2 parts)
    "I am very happy with the organ sound, effects that can add and the keyboard. For I am moderately against convincu by the efficiency of games zippers

    * A clavinet divine!
    * 4 different models rhodes piano "very good"
    * Wurlizther a "pretty good but hard to play with the effects"
    * 2 type keyboards yamaha CP80 "very good"
    * 4 acoustic pianos "means in earlier versions of the OS V3.

    [b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]

    I have a Nord Electro 61 since 2003 and I think version 1 was not too sold in France. An article in the magazine Keyboards was a little hard on the machine. It was enough at the time saw the price of the unit but never corrected their judgments despite the exit of the Nord Electro OS 2.

    Too bad because I think it's a good machine that Clavia has managed to improve over time and has no real competitor !!!!!

    This is a keyboard that I do not regret having bought it despite its price because its character and is not a mere instrument of imitation.
    Now I dream of a Nord Electro keyboard double keyboards but left the north course ....

    UTILIZATION

    - The configuration gnrale Is it easy?
    It can not be simpler. It's a shame that there have no modulation wheel on the cot it is necessary to press a little button to activate an effect, can be a dicey live. There is lack of true drawsbars cons for organ damage again ...
    Positive, level lgeret enconbrement is unbeatable and we might stay in the pocket.

    SOUNDS

    - The sounds they agree your style of music?
    I did not too look at the sounds rhodes, clavinet and piano, pushed back by the touch which I'm not used. I especially useful for organ sounds and that is happiness. Style soul funk and reggae is really a joy to play with this instrument.
    - The effects are they effective and responsive?
    The leslie APRS is effective but I am not specialist in.
    - What are the sounds you prfrez, you dtest?
    The organ is really terrible, the other sounds are good but not suitable for this type of keyboard.

    OVERALL OPINION

    - How long have you use it?
    My opinion is no justice at all I jou 14h above.
    - What is the particular feature you like best and least?
    This keyboard has the potato is not cheap, it is standard edition plutt Largu over what is done now.
    - Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
    I tried the hammond xk1, real drawsbars is happiness.
    - How do you report qualitprix?
    Clavia's expensive ... but Clavia.
    It lacks a lot of stuff but this keyboard is essentially a sound that a potato hell. I recommend it for fans of jam sessions and musicians who want to have fun playing. This is far from mind to all the synth yamaha, roland or korg but the pleasure of playing is all the greater.
    - With the exprience, you do again this choice?
    I would make this choice if there were real drawsbars, when I sub (one day :-) I think I on crack xk1.

    Basically, hybrid organ + piano keyboard (mainly electromagnetic). About the waterfall-style keyboard, using approximately equal to the two sections, I find it more fun (but it's my personal opinion) to play the sounds of electric pianos with a touch organ, the organ with a keyboard key hammer! So, in my opinion, a choice based on the use of the machine (instead of organ, piano instead, or both) that we project to have.

About the waterfall-style keyboard, using approximately equal to the two sections, I find it more fun (but it's my personal opinion) to play the sounds of electric pianos with a touch organ, the organ with a keyboard key hammer! So, in my opinion, a choice based on the use of the machine (instead of organ, piano instead, or both) that we project to have.

    Characteristics of level that I do not find what I need, except it lacks a reverb, which I remedied at home by a pedal at 40 €, knowing also that live or repeats, the presence of a reverb on the PA system is far from rare!

    Everything is done to live in this bike.

    UTILIZATION

    Everything is simple wish, plug and play technology, a = 1 function button, again resolutely live!

    I love, I feel makes life easier! I would not return for the world to gas works!

    SOUNDS

    I love the sounds, electric pianos or organs. I do not use the CP-80, because I do not like the sound at the base (not angry with me!), And the little acoustic piano, although I find it nice anyway.
    In general, I love the sound out of a keyboard amp or scratches (even for organs, despite the fact that the effect leslie is more suitable for stereo amplification), There are really good potato.

    OVERALL OPINION

    My opinion does not much, but I love this keyboard, for use primarily adapted to live, but also its sounds, and I wanted to say!

    I really scoured the site looking for alternative, cheaper under the new price of the device, and the only one I found is to buy OCCAZ! My conclusion is that this keyboard is what I found better suited to what I was looking for a long time.
    So I buy it There's 2 / 3 months OCCAZ, and new, and I'm delighted. I took the opportunity to separate myself from a lot of useless material to me and nan, I do not regret that choice! (Especially not unhappy!)

    Nord Electro II Sixty one!

    Impeccable, nothing to report in particular.

    For the features I invite you to go directly to the Clavia site.

    UTILIZATION

    Very easy to use, everything is accessible directly on the keyboard.
    Editing sounds and effects are childish. The manual is quite clear.
    Perfect!

    SOUNDS

    Apart from the acoustic piano sounds in the acute shortage of material, while other instruments are very well modeled.
    Personally I love the B3 and Rhodes (great heat, fleshy in the grave)

    For Blues and Rock so it's ideal.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had six months.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had six months.
    What I dislike most is the sound of a transformer can be integrated Zonzon too much for my taste, and that we hear in a quiet place. I also have a sort of noise "tzoing" we sometimes hear at the keys (= problem solved, it was actually a small plastic plate mounted under the circuit board power supply. I paste over a piece of sheet asphalt and everything is back to normal).

    Otherwise I love this keyboard, it is super beautiful, with wood and metal, knobs breathing health, we are far from the Japanese stuff.

    I would do without hesitation that choice. I think even before investing in the new North Compact EX.

    Nord Electro's first name (updated firmware 3.0)

    Hammond Organ keyboard focus (type B3) + Rhodes / Wurlitzer / Clavinet
    Many presets, but easily editable. Editing drawbars (pulls) for Hammond childish. Can connect three pedals: Sustain / rotor speed and expression. USB port for updates.
    Everything is in front: easy and fast editing.
    Sensitive semi-weighted pleasant for organs!

    UTILIZATION

    Very easy to configure, everything is very instinctive. The sounds are very fiddling simpelment you can switch between the "organ" and the "Piano" to reproduce Rhodes and others.

    SOUNDS

    SOUNDS

    I play in a rock band and I use the Hammond type sounds 80% of the time. The sound is pure genius, it is hot, it was the little keyclick. Amplified live and it's just great, a lot of power, heat. Nothing to say.
    The rhodes / wurlitzer are also very good. Possibility to set the overdrive.
    Only weakness: the sounds of acoustic piano ... but this keyboard is not made for that. The expression is good, it's broke for rhodes. Too bad there not have aftertouch, but honestly I do not need.
    In all cases the Hammond slams, it's great. Many effects, just missing a little reverb.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had two weeks and I had the chance to use it on stage two days ago. It was really great, with good settings to balance it's great. Preparation of the day sounds, equalizing volumes, and presto you're done, the animal may enter the scene.
    The price / quality ratio is excellent. I tried the Nord Electro 3, honestly and for 1000 € less, North 1ou2 already sounding very very good. Thus for 650 € (with flight case) it is a very very good deal.
    I highly recommend this choice and I do it again without any hesitation!
