Mr. Whitaker I first saw on “60 Minutes”…. He was born profiundly premature; before his eyes could finish developing. His parents noticed him playing a melody on his toy piano at like 2 or 3… his father was astonished how he not only picked up a melody, but harmonized it as well… so they allowed him to grow with the piano… and this is him all grown up… and a monster at his craft.

[@Phiojay]

probably the best piece i've heard on Nord live

[@edyadam524]

You got that right

[@luxoverb]

Wow, wonderful. Thank you, Mr. Whitaker.

[@cameotic]

What a magician... Love how this composition is going beyond jazz, very Rachmaninoff-esque in certain moments.

[@aleksandrshen]

this person is definitely a musician, he can feel the vibrations!!)

[@Newambientmusic]

I would love to have a Signature Collection bench by Matthew Whitaker for the Nord Stage 4.
His sounds are really very usable and practical.

[@sostenesramos2346]

top dimais 🎼🎹👏👏

[@maxremigio21]

amazing! ... but I wonder if he made those programs... I mean, I see a split including a choir and a lead, and the wheel morphed to LFO (pitch mode) and volume of 2 synth layers... how! 😮

[@edgarvalera2276]

What piano sound was used in the nord stage 4?

[@kth42]

I believe he‘s starting out on a patch using the "Royal Grand 3D" piano, then (0:34) changes to a different patch using the "Soft Grand" piano, then (3:44) switches back to the first piano.

[@dennisdenn757]

[@emanuelhermosilla2365]

SUBLIME REAL

[@kalintonev]

So much more than demonstration of musical tools. Deep layering and emotional rescue, but in the end it's just big and beautiful music! Nord are so in luck having such highly talented musicians present their instruments.

[@theclaverman]

[@rlbfelipin]

Simplesmente fantástico !!!!!!!

[@theturtleproject]

excellent

[@jensarnold50]

Dear Nord representatives, why don't you make video tutorials about the synth section of the Nord Stage 4? There are so many Nord Stage 4 users who are not familiar with the deeper settings of the synth engine. It would be so useful.

[@anatoledjoko6060]

Please is he blind?

[@afairbien]

Guyz , I think ...

[@Jomarjf]
