Synthesis 

SYNTHESIS   48 voice polyphony, the digital Oscillator section for each of the 4 layers offers 4 modes: Analog, Wavetable, FM and Samples with additional control over shape, sync or detune..
1. Analog traditional waveforms and extended, harmonically rich new additions.
+ Basic: Saw, Pulse, Pulse Width, Sine, Square with tuning controls.
+ Shape: Waveforms where Osc Control will alter the Shape of the waveform
+ Multi: 2 or more waveforms combined where the Osc Control will adjust amount of detune and spread
+ Sync: Soft and Hard synced configurations, where Osc Control controls Sync Frequency
+ Noise: White noise

2. Samples  includes 1 GB of memory and comes loaded with a wide selection of sample se.g Strings, Brass, Guitars, Choirs, Chromatic Percussion as well as special licensed sounds of the iconic Mellotron and Chamberlin. All sounds are can bed edited using included Nord Sample Editor 3.

3. Wavetable: A large number of advanced wavetables covering a wide range of tonal characteristics.

4.FM  4OP like old yamaha with 2, 3 and 4 operator configurations with harmonic/ inharmonic variations.

Filter, LFO, Envelope and effects

FILTER  6 Filter types featuring classic 12 and 24 dB Low Pass, a High Pass, High Pass/Low Pass and a Band Pass filter with full ADSR envelope. 

LFO dedicated LFO for each layer with a choice of waveforms plus AD/AR Modulation Envelope with dedicated velocity setting and Invert mode. The LFO has several morphable parameters and the rate can be synchronized to the Master Clock. 

ENVELOPE
