New nord teaser for NAMM 2020

[Duplobaustein]

Please an A2 with L4 user interface, no stupid limitations (like global vibrato), proper keybed (TP9 at best, TP8 is okay) and a proper display. Would be an insta buy.

why not merge the A1 and 4 together, include full sample handling from the wave, full tactile interface for better control and creativity. 5 octave keyboard would be nice.

still, let's see what comes. I hear with interest what others say from descriptions of the "teaser video" but we'll have to wait a few weeks. still, time will tell.

I'm almost on board with some of the people suggesting other models, like a Mini or a Vocoder. I personally doubt it's mini because of the splits and the likelihood of 61-key, but this layout would be one hell of a departure from the Leads that always have the screen on the left. Something so obviously centrally-mounted is the main screen, and I liked the suggestion of the green LEDs being an input meter. Although it's odd that it should be so fully lit in a demo video.

It would be interesting to see Nord produce a true analog synth at some point

Would that really be interesting? I don't see analog synths being in Nord DNA and/or Nord having the know-how in house for that type of development, they never designed any analog keyboard so far, they always produced DSP-based instruments.

I was going to go and buy a NS3-88 this weekend. I think I’ll wait now.

Why wait, It is highly doubted that the new instrument would be a new version of the Stage 3 and as such is more considered to be a synth to replace the lead series current builds. If this is the case, we have the stage 3 for some further time. I would highly recommend you consider buying the stage 3-88, I rely on mine heavily and wouldn't be without it. so much so, today it's just had it's new studio furniture for the grand and stage 3.

Looks quite obviously like a Stage. It has the OLED screens in the exact place as the Stage 3.

[LewTheKeysGuy]

well, if it is, we'll see. As much as I'm excited by the potential of it, I'm reserving judgement.
