Surprise! I have started to explore the NL4.
Since I felt very uncomfortable with the thought of the new red box I was seeking support from an old friend ... the Master himself!
First we unpacked the darn thing, then had some tea. In the Masters summer cottage.

Then we started tweaking. One of the very, very rare pictures of the Master with a NonModular red box!

Above - the little black box to the left, between the speakers, on the table, is a Pacarana (= 4x DSPs!)
The aim was to quickly find some useable lounge pads ... and here it is:
The NL4 has some great possibilities in sound design.
A real stage beast.
As you heard, playing while twiddling the knobs
or using the morph adds a lot of expression.
NE3HP, NP88, NS2, DPP1, NL2X, NL2X, NLA1, NL4, NE5D, NW2 (Collect Them All?), some classic Rolands, Arturias, a Waldorf, a Kurz, a WONOK3, a pile of guitars, a P-bass, loopers, amps and computers ... I'm a gearslut!
My ears (eyes?) perked up when you said that you were consulting the Master...and your little photo essay very cleverly delayed the reveal...indeed Roland on a non-Modular! And he had nice things to say about the NL4 (no surprise). How blessed you are to be in Scania and visiting summer cottages with programming geniuses!
Bless,
Pablo
