Loading Nord Electro 3 samples into an Electro 5D

Postby Nordinary » 12 Aug 2018, 11:52

Hi. Just wondering if any Nord Electro 5D owners could tell me if the Electro 3 MiniMoog samples on the Nord website can be loaded into the Electro 5D keyboard?

Also, are there any samples available for the Electro 5D that is similar to the synthesizer used for the Rockford Files theme tune:

...and also the sound from Fanfare For The Common Man:

...and the Octave Synth at 4m 32s on I wanna be your lover:

Thanks!

Electro 3 samples can be loaded into Electro 5.

You can't really do a Rockford Files sound regardless of what samples you have. The sound uses portamento (glide between notes), an effect you can't replicate on an Electro.

Thanks. It's good to know that the samples will load.

I've been thinking about getting a 'real' keyboard for a while now an was deciding between a Nord Electro, Roland VR-730 or a Vox Continental. The ability to load samples makes the Electro more future proof than the others so I think I'm going to go for it.

Can the Electro load user samples or do they have to be from the Nord website?

Thanks for the links. I ended up ordering a Nord Electro 6D that has a lot of analog synth samples in the factory presets. It's good to know I can add some more when needed.
