fred0904 « Very good machine sometimes underestimated ... »
Published on 03/01/14 at 07:00-How many sounds, effects? What styles? Are they edited?
Number of patches in memory according to their complexity (number of stakeholders osc modules / filt / env / mix / effet...dans creation).
More complexity = - patches stored.
Attention to saturation -> "Flash Memory Full" error!
-Via a Mac / PC utility?
To get an idea of publishing a downloadable app on the Clavia site is available for free, similar to the NMG2.
UTILIZATION
-The edition of sounds and effects is it easy?
An effort of understanding is required.
An "educational" machine, which helps to understand the basics of synthesis in general.
-The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
Search French manual on the net, many forums dedicated to this machine (Sons, news, docs ...)
Musicians "specialists" of these machines (Micro, NM and NMG2) on an American forum in particular.
SOUNDS
-The sounds they suit your style of music?
Suitable for all styles of music:
Experimentation, acoustic electro, techno, Berlin School (built as modules Sequencers) jazz, progressive rock, ect ...
OVERALL OPINION
-How long have you use it?
More than 15 years of use between Micro, Nord Modular - first generation (NMG1 does not exist) and now NMG2 (philosophy).
-Have you tried many other models before buying it?
Many different and not always comparable synths or compare with NM today Laptop / VST / VSTi and NMG2 in my studio.
-What is the particular feature you like best and least?
Curiously complexity is an advantage (for me), but sometimes may be prohibitive in some (time-edition).
-How would you rate the quality / price?
With experience, you do again this choice? ...
An analog modeling synth has only in this form, to my knowledge, prices average, NM If 3rd generation one day ... Why not!
In occasion: Beware of over-pricing, an opinion that is only my opinion: Between 300 and 350 €
