Where did you see that, Lew? It's not listed as a feature on the product page. Was it mentioned in one of the videos?

I’m curious about seamless transitions, as well. Did anyone at NAMM hear about this? No mention on the website. Perhaps it will be in the manual when it comes out.

Thanks for posting this!

I have been listening to all of the new synths, Hydrasynth, Argon, Summit, etc. I have also owned the Access Virus TI2. As I felt about my A1, the Nord VA synths just have a real richness to them that, to my ears, is lacking in almost all of the other offerings. Before this unit ships I believe we will hear even more great sounds. Just a huge sweet spot, rich and detailed. I bet you can get great sounds out of a single layer on this new machine.

Yeah, they’re gorgeous sounding instruments. Love my Moogs and DSIs, but I always have to listen and discern the uses for each individual one. A Nord Stage or synth has turned into an automatic pre-order. The Stage 3 is the most enjoyable performing keyboard I own. Immediate, versatile, so many quick options for fun performances. I expect this will complement it well.

Hi,

First of all many thanks for the long sound demo. What I did not hear so far are the kick drum like sounds that can be created with an A1. Are the filters fast enough to do that?
