With two sets of physical drawbars per manual, extremely realistic simulations of a B3 tone wheel organ, Vox and Farfisa transistor organs, and a beautiful sampled baroque pipe organ, the new Nord C2D is the ultimate portable organ solution. The B3 model Nord C2D is the result of over a decade of perfecting our tone wheel simulations. We haven't just analyzed the signals from each of the 91 spinning tone wheels inside several original instruments, we have also paid years of attention to each and every one of the intricate details that make up the characteristics of the actual sound in a vintage organ. Our simulation not only reacts to the panel settings, it even adapts to the real time performance and will faithfully reproduce the important foldback and energy robbing characteristics; the... Less

The opening Dupré unfolds in a most satisfying way; the Widor is projected with immense character and yet finesse, while the Duruflé Suite seems to be second nature to her. A wonderful record to which one can return each time to find greater depths." -- American Organist Anyone who loves organ music and great sound will be thrilled!
