How do we get samples loaded like these ones in the Kronos ? Is it even possible ?

Re: Realistic instrument sounds!
No, it is not possible.
Those sounds use complex mapping and velocity layers (playing them at different strengths plays different samples). The mapping is kinda-sorta possible with custom samples in the Editor, but no Nord supports velocity switching.

As analogika said, the Nord doesn't have the architecture to support multiple velocity samples (except in the Piano section). Maybe some day, it's been a long-standing request among some users. Still, even that wouldn't give it all the abilities the Kronos has to do what it does with those samples. Kronos editing/sample manipulation is much deeper, same with many of the boards from Kurzweil and Yamaha. That's why so many Nord owners pair their board with one of those others. No one board does everything great, so ideally you use each board for its strengths. Just in terms of basic design philosophy, Nord provides far less deep sound editing than those others, but the trade-off is, creating/editing sounds on the Nord is much simpler and direct.

Re: Realistic instrument sounds!
The Kronos is a completely different type of machine. It is a Linux PC running nine different VST instruments, a full sequencer, and a mixer. And that is exactly what it feels like to operate it.
The Nord is built around its interface. There really is no comparison, as much as I’d love Kronos-style orchestral sounds.

Re: Realistic instrument sounds!
The Kronos is meant to live in the studio, the Nord is meant to live on stage. At least that's the impression I get.

Hi
To sum it up, Nord is specialized in realistic keyboard sounds...

Kronos' Set List Mode makes it one of the most live-friendly boards for patch recall, though Nord's dedicated controls better lend themselves to real-time tweaking.
