Nord a1r new user tips

Post by Rolfus-a1r »

Hi guys I have just bought my first Nord (A1r).

Been having a fiddle with it and it sound really lush i have to say.
I recently followed the instructions on a gearslutz forum-

https://www.gearslutz.com/board/electro ... ng-va.html

It seems to excel at these types of sounds, I was very impressed. So much so that i thought it fitting for me to ask here if any one else knows any other type of sound designing methods that i can become acqauinted with. Types that the nord lead a1 lends itself to, the methods i discovered on the gearslutz forum were very straight forward for me to implement and achieve what i, (as a relatively inexperienced user), percieved as very usable sounds indeed.

So if anyone else has any type of starting point that they believe would be easy to implement on the a1 for a newbie such as myself i would very much appreciate a basic overview of the types of sounds that the nord lead lends itself to so well.

Cheers everyone ps. sorry if my points weren't as concise as they should be (i am brand new to the nord life!!!)

Hej Rolfus!

Congrats to your NLA1r! :thumbup:

Why not browse through the patches on this excellent forum
http://www.norduserforum.com/nord-lead-programs-f30/
and give them a try? Several of them (by me) have "recipes" that you can gain experience from! :D

Happy tweaking! :keyboard:
