Four synths in one. The Nord Wave 2 61-Key Performance Synthesizer combines four independent synthesizers into one unit offering exceptional possibilities for layering classic waveforms and samples. This can all be monitored through the OLED displays for program and oscillator sections. This along with the instantly tweakable hands-on effects contribute to the Wave 2 being Nords most versatile performance synthesizer ever. The Wave 2 is packed with a range of features that will help you find your sound. Four oscillator types multi-layer capabilities six filter types and a huge range of effects mean that youll never run out of creative tools. This is done using Nords trademark quality audio with high-quality samples taken from Nord Sample Library 3.0.
Layer section The Wave 2 features a Program Layer section with faders to easily control the volume or pan of each layer. These can therefore be played independently or simultaneously resulting in unique synth sounds. The Layer section also provides handy features for quick layer focus pan control solo and multi-editing. To customise your sound further the Group feature allows you to group 2 3 or four layers and process them together through filters envelope arpeggiator LFO and effect settings. This is ideal for creating complex multi-layered sounds that can be edited together. Alternatively three split points provide up to 4 zones with optional crossfades. Four oscillator modes The oscillator section for each of the four layers offers four modes Analog Wavetable FM and Samples. These can be browsed through the intuitive category mode. Within the Oscillator Control feature is additional parameters for shape sync or detune. The Oscillator section also includes a powerful multi-oscillator effect which simultaneously generates hundreds of waveforms for extremely thick and fat sounds. An oscillator for every occasion The four oscillator categories each offer different characteristics for creating sounds. The Analog category offers an extensive range of waveforms from classic analog to harmonically rich additions. The Samples category utilises Nord’s sample library 3.0 for sounds ranging through strings brass guitars and more. These sounds also include the exclusively licensed sounds of the legendary Mellotron and Chamberlin and can be replaced using the Nord Sound Manager. The Wavetable category covers a large number of advanced wavetables with a wide range of tonal characteristics. Finally the FM category has 2 3 and 4 operator configurations with harmonic and inharmonic variations. Still not enough options? The Nord Sample Editor 3 for Mac and Windows makes it easy to map loop and transfer samples to your Nord Wave 2 in an instant. Filters Amp and LFOs The Filter section has 6 filter types including an accurate emulation of the transistor ladder filter found in the legendary Mini. The filter is equipped with an ADSR envelope providing ultimate control over the filter effect. The Wave 2 features a dedicated LFO providing a choice of waveforms for each layer vibrato plus AD/AR modulation envelope with velocity setting and invert mode. The amp section is also equipped with a full ADSR envelope including a transient attack mode which adds a defined punch to your sound. Morphing and impulse morph The Wave 2 features an extensive range of morphable parameters. These include LFO amount oscillator control filter and effects that can be controlled from four different sources. Velocity aftertouch wheel and control pedal controls accurately effects the parameters. All the morph sources can be assigned to control multiple parameters simultaneously. Polyphonic arpeggiator The Nord Wave 2 also features an arpeggiator with both classic and polyphonic modes. These patterns will trigger all held keys featuring differing inversions for exciting harmonic variations. The gate mode chops the audio up into a rhythmic pattern which once again can be user edited. Effects section An independent section can be used to apply stereo effects including tremolo pan ring modulator chorus ensemble and vibe. These high-quality effects are all controllable via a pedal or can be synchronised to the master clock for rhythmic effects. Other effects include advanced stereo delay effects with ping pong mode analog mode and tap tempo. Various reverbs are available ranging from dark to bright and varying room sizes.
