The nord only comes in red hahahahaha
I guess you really dont understand...
The nord lead 3 made by clavia is the ne

Had 5 blue nords made specially for Bob Rocks studio in san francicso and Maui and Also vancouver... 5 rack models and 5 keys models 5 keys for the On tour show...
5 racks for the different studios of bob Rock...

Personally Mr rock wanted all the eipment now so
Nord Rack 2X - will be released later this summer.
That qoute had no place in his world....
So basically Rock called them up told them to get rid of the 24 bit DACS running at 96hz...In the nord 3 lead , he said that messed up the whole sound of the nord product.. B/c 96hz is never totally achieved on most peoples systems its ridiculous unless your recording straight to DVD with no Dither...

He also had them Change the low pole filters and most of the filters paramters...
The curve in which the effect the sound...
The resonance was then patched into the nord a different way the signal chain I mean...
He also had them increase the Gain stage 4db...
He had them tale out most of the percussion kits and replace them with his own library of drums... he also made them program the octave buttons shifters... to addd two more octave buttons..
-/+ 4 -/+8

So he also hates red...
So he had them put a pearl paint that allows the paint to change from blue to pearl....


So as for the blue nord they "Clavia" also have a model b/c of the shear request and what they did..

The REAL question is:

WHY does Lil' jon make those beats?

Cus it's simple, and dudes told him that the neptunes use the Nord Lead!!
I gotta say, people love his ish. Not my favorite, although, one lesson he can teach you is that sometimes less is more. Minimal tracks that thump and have a catchy melody line usually do rock the party...depending on what party that is. Also, I wanna know if he has a manager. Whoever that is has powers of persuasion that we will never understand...Also, about synths: I think it's more the user. You can go buy the same ish that a particular person uses, but your programming, keyboard style, sample selection, influences, etc. will make your sound. The rest is called 'biting'.
I wish there wer MORE keyboards out there that were popular, so we didn;t have so much of the SAME sounding ish...but I guess that's industry for you.

Yeah, I like lil jon tracks the first, say, 10 listens. Drunkeness helps too. And I guess the cleaness of the production does sound, erm, modern.

all triton sounds, drums from the mpc3000, but are tweaked 808 and 909 shit.

anyways, i own a triton, and some of those sounds he doesnt really tweak them too much!

You can probably just use a triton le, and with some skills, get same results. I think his shit bangs, but man, there aint no science in those. one week of owning the triton, and you would know hwat i mean......its easy to get those sounds on the triton.
