I ran across this thread while searching for "nord lead rumors" on google. LOL. Four years ago I started this thread and it's still floating around. I did end up getting an A1r and am very happy with the use I have gotten from it. :)

Well, Clavia announces the new Nord Electro 6 http://www.nordkeyboards.com/products/nord-electro-6

It will be shown for the first time at the Winter NAMM 2018 Show. But, sadly ... No indication from Clavia that they are going to delight us with a new Nord Lead 5 or A2, or ..... :roll:

Looks like VA is now a feature instead of a product for Nord, unless we see anything happen in the next few days ro on Muzikmessse the future of Leads looks bleak.
Stage 3 and Electro 6 are more updates than upgrades. Looks like no more (rack) modules and no more VA from Nord, More and more it shows Nord and focusing on bread and butter product lines (electro/Stage) only.
Not even a Drum update/grade in years

Didn't the Nord Drum 3P come out last spring?

As for the Lead line, they still sell the synths...it's not like production has stopped. I find the 4 and A1 to be very fine and thoroughly competitive products. I'm sure there will be another lead, but it won't be till they have something they feel needs to be said.

I have faith. :)

For faith, me too.... I will say that to my wife when she tells me I have faith in nothing, I believe in nothing....I will reply ala "yoda style" : The true not is, in a new Lead 5, I have the faith in, that Nord will have the force to build one, in a further deep Galaxy....
