Hi!

What do you thing about buying a Nord Wave these days?
I know it is an old model... i am btw a WAVE (due the capacity of load samples) and a Lead A1....

what do you think?

The wave is a fantastic machine that can read samples AND be a real vintage synth, the A1 doesn't read samples...

WAVE is producer choice. IMHO Wave is better than A1.

So A1 is the player's choice?

Hey Marlowes, you're also missing the original Lead and the Lead3!!! :o
How can you get sleep, with such a void in your rig?

Waves seem tricky to get hold of. I got mine for around £750 delivered. Had a problem with the USB controller, but got that fixed for around £100 including courier. I think it compliments the NS2 very well in a 2 board setup - love it!
