By this step, Nord is openning a new gate! Everybody knows that orchestral samples was a important weakness from Clavia's keys. Now, the partneship with Spitfire CHANGES THE GAME totally. Thousands of "nordists" now waiting soloists strings, wood sections, brass sections, cinematic bundles because Spitfire has the best samples of the world. As I said: a new gate, a new universe for Nord's keyboards. Simply amazing!!!!!

Great demonstration video! The Spitfire samples bring an entirely new aspect to the NS4.

[@abwdoc]

OMG !! These samples, combined with the technique to bring out the nuances…STUNNING !! I have never heard this degree of realism before. Add the pianos, flutes, oboes, and percussion just makes it all the more realistic. Closing my eyes, it seems indistinguishable from a real orchestral section. Any chance you’ll release some of these combinations of strings/percussions/winds/etc ?

[@SilvanoiDellaTorre-v9j]

Good morning,
Your videos are very interesting and I congratulate you.
I would like to know if it is possible to combine the nord stage 4 with a bass pedalboard (I am an organist and always use the pedalboard.) Thank you for your reply

[@talshafir10]

Couldn't find the percussion sounds on Nord's website. Only tuned ones. Can you help me find it?

[@adrianjapp]

Just love this. Downloaded this already for my Stage 4. Fantastic!
Would be brilliant if Bonners could share the Programs made with the Spitfire libraries. Some really inventive and fantastic soundscapes created with them. 😀

These are light years ahead of the Symphobia strings added to the Nord library last year

[@wilkopiano]

I thought they added orchestral tools samples to nord not symphobia strings which is actually far superior as a vst direct movie scoring “must have” library, than orchestral
Toools. Spitfire vst libraries are amazing but they are too accurate and not immediate sit down and play patches. Unlike symphobia or caspian vsts. This spitfire nord pack is great and instantly usable though.

[@javascript6948]

Are these samples available for the Nord electro’s ?

[@robinstephenson9938]

Great video and excellent sound library. Love it and have tried on my Nord Grand. When watching Paul use the volume key to add another dimension it made me wonder whether either of you have tried the Genki Wave (Bluetooth midi) ring. Assigning volume to the hand tilt would enable that emotional dimension whilst keeping 2 hands on the keyboard. Check them out if you haven’t already

Would be nice to get increased individual bowing pressure with pressure or aftertouch. Maybe a peddle to increase bowing speed too.

[@robdhorton]

Really impressive sounds and professional quality video! 😊

[@bonnersmusic]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@dmcgwhisper5945]

Its a massive improvement on Nord. Ive never liked their piano sound for instance. This sounds epic.

[@kenb7540]

Paul’s playing at c28m Just wow. 👏👏🎶

[@vladtirla8801]

I need this library samples inside my Prophet X! Big like, awesome job!

[@paulussantosociwidjaja4781]

Totally love it, hardly could blink my eyes.

[@desoconnor7445]

This is a brilliant synergy…get tech and great samples 👏👏👏

[@timallen6025]

[@dmcgwhisper5945]

Wow! I loved that at 22:32 piano and strings.

[@grzegorztomasiak]
