@@turbochargedfilms thanks- the clouds part as to what this actually is. Very cool. I jumped to conclusions at first.. probably cause I still have my nl2x, swiss .. no Swedish Army knife for live lead synth.. just missing after touch but the playability of that synth, its wooden pitch bend and stone mod wheel… perfect.
Thanks for sharing this with us, maestro! 🤩 Am I right that "Nevada - Friends Till The End" too, one of my absolute favourites amongst your many masterpieces, is mainly NL2 based? 😊 Kudos! 🙌🏻🤗
Beautifully lush demo track, I really like how it gets into the baroque at the end. Special request - for all your synth revitalizations, can you please add a random preset selector 🎲🔀 button which chooses a preset from the existing list? Would be a delightful way to discover sounds in a NON-A-Z/category way that the original didn't have.
I just LOVE the general sound of all Nord keyboards ❤ Bold, distinctive, elegant, unique, solid. I do own a Nord Rack 2X and rarely use a computer for music creation anyways, but to fiddle around and designing sounds I can totally see myself using this tool here. Thank you 🎉
Great emulation! Unusual Suspects should make license agreements to allow legal use of these synth emulations even by non-owners of the original hardware, perhaps by offering a paid license.
I imagine that the Usual Suspects would be hit with cease & desist lawsuits if they tried making money from their emulations, because they don't own the intellectual property of the Motorola chips/code or the synth operating systems and look & feel. If Nord (or Waldorf, or Access) wanted cheap/free virtual versions of their synths to be available, they'd presumably make them available themselves, or license the code to developers. Official licenses rarely come cheap and lawyers love giving small companies a hard time.
This definitely it over the top!! havent heard anything this good in a long time. Clarity of the filters is insane. Sounds are almost better than the real thing!! When is the release? Need the link for download. A new addition to the studio for sure.
When this will be released, then, this in conjunction with the already released OsTirus and Vavra, can be used to make a total virtual hardware remake of the Daft Punk's song "Very Disco"! Nodal Red> flute and organ parts, OsTirus> bass and pad parts (and eventually the arp part alongside Vavra)! Use eventually tromine for the drums!
Discodsp have already done this and has more options. This was my first proper synth in 1998. As others have said, the modular would be good to have a clone of.
Btw. Proteus 2000 also used Motorola DSP. There're a lot of EXB banks (similar to ROMs) from Proteus VSTi left. I'm currently parsing EXB format. It is not that complex...
@@winstonhulley626 I'm writing a parser in C++. It's a binary format, kinda IFF but with some tricks (libiff doesn't work). EXB has a bank description with all the instruments. Samples are stored in SamplePool/*.ebl files. I didn't parse EBL yet. But it should be easy. I already found a python script which extracts WAVs from EBL. There is available a free ProteusVX VSTi with limited EXB editor. It helps to understand params relations. Also it's possible to find Emulator X VSTi with full editor. I parse, got a text representation, than I change 1 param, save, parse again, compare with diff... Finally I was able to parse almost the whole file...
sounds like sylenth. I use a 2x rack when i want a raw thick, almost analog sound that my virus ti2 doesnt do as well. (even with "analog" settings cranked.) this demo lacks that.
For the filter code, I would recommend the zero delay feedback filter design. The DCF resonance still sounds too harsh and not really musically beautiful if it is turned up too far. Otherwise this is a great project. The only drawback: the DCF
You are truly mistaken and completely missed the point of this video and the whole project. This is emulator of a synth, they are not programming anything other than emulator and the GUI , thus they can not add or subtract new filters. Basically you need to have Firmware from this synth. These guys provide emulator and the interface. All sounds, features and characteristics comes from the Nord firmware.
@@leonprofes8544 but what are you trying to achieve with this? It's a digital synth with poor DCF and sound processing that now sounds better in most freeware VSTs.
@@randydarklightDepends what you mean by better. Nothing does a Nord filter better than a Nord. The whole point is to be able bring that piece of history , that 90s, early virtual analog character effortlessly into the DAW. It’s an emotional thing, it’s not all about technicalities and perfect filters…
This is a DSP emulator and sounds identical because you use the original ROM. I compared my Virus B with the OSirus, factory presets, the sound is identical
Not only this is a great project but a true cause, the preservation of technology, history.
very true
Disco discovery dsp has had this covered for over two decades…. But.. ok
@@wentzr not the same as Nodal at all, either in intent or in execution

@@wentzr And costs 100 bucks
you know Korg MS-2000 and Roland V-synth use the same family of chips? LET'S GO! :D
korg ms2000 its a Motorola 56k based DSP engine, V-synth have Roland proprietary chips based on toshiba IC
HOT DAMN!!!
looks like this one boxed the ticks for you lol
You need a custom skin with missing and broken keys to truly capture the feel of the OG
There's a bad virtual gear approaching 😎
@@Manerr This one is logic gating all the boxes , virtually speaking
oh they are waiting for the new video ..... now
I hope you guys land the Nord Modular after this, with a reimplementation of the editor. 🔥
Yes, you are right! Any news about this project? Nord Modular is the mother of synth
At least micromodular, what uses only 1 dsp, and should be easer to emulate
@@lineagefan9648 Thank you. You are involved in the project?
Apart from showcasing the plugin, this is a great Nordlead demo in itself.
Insane! I still use the NL4 in my set up. Mostly used in my Push and Extreme Trax projects back in the day.
Keep it up 🔥
Thanks for sharing this with us, maestro! 🤩 Am I right that "Nevada - Friends Till The End" too, one of my absolute favourites amongst your many masterpieces, is mainly NL2 based? 😊 Kudos! 🙌🏻🤗
DSP56300 Team - KINGSSSSSSSS, hope to try this as soon as possible... and many more to come
As a 2x owner... It indeed sounds like a real Nord. Good job!
Oh my Nord! This. Is. Beautiful! Great song too! Love that bass line starting at 2:17. OMG. You are great!
you guys are doing divine work.. we love you
If you're all so enthusiastic, these guys would definitely appreciate a small donation.
Love this work, thanks so much for make it available open source.

A truly monumental accomplishment from any angle.

Omg!! DSP56300 Emu - I just love you! =) Virus, Waldorf and now the Nord Lead!! SUPER !
crazy demo and thanks for preserving all the DSP56300 based synths on your list so far
Well worth the admission fee...what an amazing recreation...
That is just a crazy cool idea to simulate DSP and load firmware!!
Thank you for sharing.
Welp, this is the one that’ll finally get me to download this thing. Amazing! Miss my NL2 often.
Great emulation! Unusual Suspects should make license agreements to allow legal use of these synth emulations even by non-owners of the original hardware, perhaps by offering a paid license.
not emulations its real firmware from nord lead, emulations is the cpu.

Guys @ DSP56300...keep up that good work. I'm happy to contribute $$$ !!! (still waiting for the Xenia though)
Holy shit!!! you guys are insane I am so hyped for this
This sounds amazing! You guys are truly legends!
Now i have an Intel Core i9 and i can say : This guys are GENIUS 🔥😉
damn, that sounds very powerful!!!
I love my NL2/2X but this software is awesome.
can't waiiiiiiit ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ please make my weekend perfect, release now! just joking, u know when its time! thanks a lot guys! 🎉🎉🎉
Amazing work, but also, an amazing track. Listened to the whole thing. Excited :)

Very nice.. I love my NL 2x... so I'm very interested in the Emu
fantastic sound
the pipe organ part was nuts
dope af. cant await that release
amazing.. people like you are best
Incredible 🙌
amazing work
Absolute gorgeous
That rubbery goo of a filter is there in all its glory.
AMAZING WORK AS ALWAYS.
That organ fugue ...super clever!!
Highly Anticipated😊
Sounds great.
can do monomachine and machinedrum??
Oh my! Looking forward to this one.
Sounds amazing 🎶🙂
this is awesome
Is Christmas really going to come early ? Please Santa, please, I want this so much more than an ugly duckling sweater.
Beautiful ❤❤
i love the church-organ-y part :)
Are these all factory presets? I wanna know because I love the pluck&pad preset
Insane !
release soon!! wohooo
i love this so much
Discodsp have already done this and has more options.
This was my first proper synth in 1998.

Diskodsp doesn't sound nearly as good as Nord
@@Nakayoshi-S it does have more options which makes it its own thing but sure, it’s not quite there.
DiscoDSP doesn't have Motorola chip emulator, it's a simulator not an emulator = true thing 😉
Wow, super interesting!
Danke für das Demo! Der Synthi klingt wirklich sehr gut und zu empfehlen. Die Kirchenmusik...^^ naja... :D
è molto credibile!
When will the VIPs get access to try please?
I own the real thing. Great work guys 👍🏻💯
amazing
Many trance records have this signature sound
sounds fucking good man

ROM - please)
Wow!!! NORD LEAD! , YAY! 🎉❤🎉❤🎉
Nodal Red 3?
Hello! Where can I download the demo version of this plugin and what is the name of the ROM?
For God sake!!!! Please work on Novation next! PLEASE🙏
YES YES YES... I want a Novation Supernova VST/AU
@@stevensteve8196they made the a station which is kind of the same engine.

Ohhh yeah!
Imagine Andromeda A6.
Andromeda A6 is ANALOG synth...
@@jehwoh fk, you are right. I didn't even realize till now. :(
Will be great an a face to face with DiscoDSP version. Thanks.
This is a DSP emulator and sounds identical because you use the original ROM.
I compared my Virus B with the OSirus, factory presets, the sound is identical
how to download?
\o/
YES!
I have a 2X but this is quite convenient.
I have a Virus B and the OSirus sounds identical
siick
Is this available or still in development?
Same question. I guess it’s on the testing stage
Cool!
Is there VST3 Mac M1 version ?
way better than modern U-He or Arturia plugins!
Arturia, maybe, but U-He Repro and Diva are not bad, i say on the same level as classic hw va's, but different sonic character, more, emmm... "smooth"
Hive is an awesome synth. It's also one of the few synths that use dual-axis wavetables! Also, maybe consider the Tone2 stuff?
🤣
Ye syes eys yes wyes yes yes yes yes yes YES!!!!! YES!!!
nord lead 3 please, I know some parts cannot be emulated but still.
Wow!!
Download ?
How to download this VST? thankss hehe
Fantastic? It's it available?
