finally someone shows the true potential of the A1
Thank you for playing stuff that's actually interesting. Not lame stuff constantly using the pitch bend lol. This is very pleasant to listen to and shows the true colors of the sounds in my opinion.
That's because most Synth enthusiasts can't actually play music
Still if they can't play they can at least bother to program some decent sequences. A lot of demos are more lackluster than they need to be.
That Final Fantasy V bit took my breath away. Super cool!
I seriously watched all of the 4 video on the NORD Lead A1 like 20 times.
So pleasant to listen to & beautiful tones. I couldn't sleep at night until i bought one lol. Now loving mna!
Thank you so much mna
Lol, same here.
This is hands down my favorite synth channel on UA-cam! ♥️
I love how tastefully you picked the specific melodies for each sound. Very, very nice.
i loved the sounds, even if most of them are very commercial/edmstyle, they still have a very own character. So tanks for showing the sound-soul of the a1!
thank you so much for the patches :)
Soooo beautiful played!!
Awesome sounds!
I'm a experience keyboard player I must say this is one the most Intriguing Captivating memorizing keyboardist that I couldn't stop listening too, great Job! I use to own a nordlead4 never got my to sound like that one your playing!
Hi, thank you! Really appreciate your nice comment!
Very very nice demo, excellent playing.
We love that trancy stuff. Good job
Excellent demo and I find this instrument not limited but a great piece with tons of options! Sounds really good and full, and you've just made this little red girl a majestic queen.
nice demo and I love all the progressions! , they're so epic, I imagine italo disco and pop tracks that don't exist yet, they all are very baroque and dramatic.... very much my style
great sound and video!!!
Super Demo!!!, ;-)
I've never owned a Nord of any kind before but what I have seen so far excites me and I especially like the Lead A1, some nicely put together sounds by the way :-)
Magic!
Thank you for the videos of playing the presets.
I'm spending almost $ 2,000 because of this video. In Brazil, Nord costs the price of a car. Your setlist inspire me, bravo!
great tones bro
This is a wonderful machine
2:17 damn bro, you went all in on this one! amazing
very well done ---- with excellent sound ---- a model video
Schöner wie das Werks-Demo ...Dankeschön
Sold! Next purchase!
Jarre's Overture. :O
Sounds great! :D
Another great Performance. The Orange-Theme-Cover is awesome.
Sammy3000 I got my A1 some weeks ago (instead of a Waldorf Blofeld) and I´m really happy with it. Thx to Whentherushcomes for making this great Videos.
Sammy3000 Hi, very good choice :) and thanks for the nice comments!
Sammy3000 looks like Vigo got himself a new name lol
Love these demos...bought the A1 because of them and its now my go to synth. Thanks buddy!!
Andy Ford Hi, really nice to hear that; thanks!
I got some Hot Chip vibes from this.
2:44 - 3:00
ID ? beautiful song -
and you are the best demo player ever !!!!
+Jona Prado Hi, thanks :) The track is RMB - Redemption. The playlist is included in the description below the video.
green thumb for the awesome version of antartica !!!
I keep returning to your video, one of the best synth demos I've seen and just an amazing performance of this synthesizer, the part from 10:47 is such an eargasm, goosebumps on my back my ass everywhere such an amazing sound and melody. What song is that from?
MessiahGaming1080p Hi, thanks for the kind words! The track is Allure - Somewhere Inside Of Me
I like your version of Redemption more 😊
love ff
Nice! Waiting for part III :)
By the way, what's that tune at 7:00?
❤️❤️❤️
Hmm, Alan Parsons Project - Genesis sounds very much like the intro song to the old computer game The Great Giana Sisters by Chris Hülsbeck, or...the other way around probably...:)
10:29 my heart start to bump
Hi! thanks for the video. I'm looking to buy this Nord. Do you know hoy many sounds has on its library?. Those sounds you're playing are all fom the original library or there are some presets downloaded by yourself?. Thanks!
Rich sound no wonder it costs so much !!
Fantastic!
Any chance you share those patches?
I would buy them instantly.
you make me think to buy this synth after I lost my virus
08 Final Fantasy V --> sounds great @@@@
9:51 pretty nice....
What's tune at 5:42 ? It's truly moving piece of music.
Awesome demo, I played NL A1 last time in Poznań, and It's very good synth. I must buy it :)
Krzysztof Witkowski Hi, thanks! The tune is Vangelis - Theme from Antarctica.
Whentherushcomes Vangelis - so I was so close ;) Thank you :) I will record my own cover
What preset was the Final Fantasy V song played on? Beautiful as hell
Can I add these sounds in my Nord Lead 4?
dude can play...
SO WHAT IS THE BEST SYNTH FOR TRANCE MUSIC IN THE NORD LINE UP?
Nord lead 2x,nord lead 3,nord lead 4 or the A1?
Oh didn't see I already asked this, must have missed it sorry. But what about the g2 as a synth, have you tried it also?
please tell me the song title at 2:50 min?
you reminded me of the year 1994.
Congratulations!
Michele Borghi Hi, you're right about the early 90s; it's RMB - Spring & RMB - Redemption
so thois or the lead 4?
Hey again I bought this baby mostly because of your video so thanks for that, now I am thinking of returning it not to get something else but to get the rack/table version since I don't really need the keys which is quite few anyway and then I save 200€. So I was wondering would it be possible to link the modwheel effects to a pedal on say a midi master keybord instead? Because then the keyboard version is definitely not needed for me since mostly the modwheel is what you want, I can't fill the room with keyboards. Love the sound on it do, have you done a patch of your sounds btw?
Thanks for the help I appreciate it.
Messiah Hi, to use the Morph function without the mod wheel, you can connect an expression pedal directly to the Control Pedal connection on the back of the A1(R). The manual probably gives you more information on that topic. Seems like a good option If you don't need the keys.
Whentherushcomes Yeah I got the table version which is really nice since I have that Fatar VMK 188 plus, and I bought a Roland EV-7 pedal it's so nice, like even better than modwheel since both hands free to play, it's awesome to do those filtersweeps with the foot. I have you to thank for my purchase really, very nice videos of this synth and thanks for all help.
Messiah Nice setup! It actually makes me think why I'm still doing the morph effects with the mod wheel :) . Thanks and enjoy the A1
please someone put some timestamps
And Vangelis. Antarctica? :)
did you make that patch your self at 4:30? i love that sound i need to learn how
Cruz Yucupicio Hi, that sound can be found in the Nord Library.
Whentherushcomes did you have to download it to the sound manager? if so can you send a link for the download?
Cruz Yucupicio The name of the performance is '2nd harmonic' from the Freemasons Bank. You can download it from the Nord website.
Hi - have you compared the Nord Lead 4 to the A1? Reviews tell of the differences, but wondering from a player's perspective if you have an opinion or favorite. Thanks!
Mark Ellis Hi, I haven't spent enough time with the NL4 to make a fair comparison. But if it's only about the sound, then the A1 is my personal favorite.
How limited would you say this is, I hear so much shit how bad it is when it comes to creating sounds in the long run but from what I hear it sounds amazing and really special. It is digital but it still have something I really like, it's alive in it's own way and it would fit it's own place in a song easy. Would recommend getting a second hand g2 more, could that synth do all this can do or are they very different machines? Great playing btw, awesome playing and sounds are all so musical and want you to just throw money at the screen.
Messiah I asked if you would recommend getting a g2 more, not that I recommend it, I don't really know what do you say?
Messiah Thank you! I've never used the G2, so unfortunately I can't compare it to the A1.
nice vid! can you tell me the name ot the second cover which starts at around 0:20. thx thx
Thanks! Deadmau5 - Clockwork (or the early 90s classic Cygnus X - The Orange theme)
***** Hi, I did not know that. Thanks for sharing!
This synth is getting so much bad shittalk but from what you bang out of it sure sound amazing am I missing something. Everyone say it's so limited but I hear so much versatility even more so than if you would play a real analog tbh. What do you think about the synth, recommend or shit on?
Messiah Hi, definitely recommended! The 2nd osc is a bit limited, but it never really bothered me. It makes it easy to come up with great sounding patches very quickly. And with the 4 parts and effects you can make them sound huge.
Are all the sounds you play in this series factory presets?
SuperEuphoric1 Hi, most sounds in part 1 & 2 are edited patches from the Nord website.
I'm seriously thinking about buying the A1. I have several mono synths which I love but I' always running out of voices. The four synths with voices should give me what I need. Lots of good choices.
Ed Gross how does the A1 compare to your Roland? I'm leaning towards the Nord. The four tones should open up lots of options. I'll have money in a couple weeks. I have working synths i bought 20 years ago. Serious decisions ahead.
Ed Gross Hi, the A1 is one of the best sounding va synths I've played. Try one and you will be sold ;)
Whentherushcomes Thanks! The demo helps.
Whentherushcomes reminds me of the Jupiter 8 in that it is only a 2 Osc synth but sound more powerful than 3-4 Osc synths of its time, must be the actual thought that goes into the sound architecture that makes these synths work better
Are all these sounds from all video parts available?
Hi, yes :). Link in the description.
5:45 lovely sound. Is it a preset or from u ?
TheKorgUser Hi, I’m not really sure about that one, but you can download all these sounds from the official Nord forum (link is in the description).
what"s the name of second to last track? very huge!!!
Константин Путько Hi, it's Allure - Somewhere Inside Of Me
thank's men!
Are these all presets? if yes, amazing factory sounds!
Hi, yes most sounds are (tweaked) programs/performances from the Nord sound banks
Whentherushcomes I must get this beast, with my Virus TI it will be a weapon.
TommyNation Agree, you can't go wrong with those 2 :)
The melody starting at 0:50, is that from a song?
If yes, what song is it?
Raymond Isaak Hi, it's Signum - Riddles In The Sand
Whentherushcomes Thanks for the response!
May I use these demo videos as background music in my video's?
Raymond Isaak Sure, no problem :)
the power is in driver how to drive the pwerfull car , we have a match !
Listen to Strix 6 Aton 1
Can somebody tells me the number of the preset at 0:15 ? :)
can kutlu Hi, that sound is not a preset ;)
woow :D can you sent me that patch to my g mail? cankutlu1999@gmail.com
can kutlu I got more similar requests, so I probably share the whole bank after part 3 :)
Thanks a lot :)
