Welcome to listen to MP3 songs of Nord synthesizers and ddrum electronic percussion. To listen to the files, click on them and download them to your computer. Open and play back the file(s) in an MP3 player, such as Winamp for PC or MacAMP for Macintost or QuickTime for PC and Macintosh. This page is divided into two main sections: Factory demos and Miscellaneous. The 'Miscellaneous' section features tracks made by Nord and ddrum users.

Factory demos	We like to be honest with our listeners, and therefore we don't use any external effects or sound processors on these tracks. What you'll hear is recorded directly from the instruments' outputs. The audio is recorded in one take, and no overdubbing has been made.
Nord Modular G2	Hydro.mp3 (031222) RedMonday.mp3 (031222) RedDevil.mp3 (031222) These three sequencer demos were created by Dasz Garncarz. Each demo is a single G2 Performance consisting of four G2 Patches with inter-Slot MIDI control of Patch parameter variations. Everything you hear is sequenced and controlled internally in each Performance. All sounds are synthesized on the G2 and no samples, external effects or external control are used. G2strings.mp3 (031219) Sasquatch.mp3 (031219) These sound clips were created by sound designer Zon Vern Pyles. The G2strings clip is a simulation of strings and the Sasquatch is a "film FX" type of sound. The sounds are synthesized on the G2 and no samples or external effects are used. RushingHours.mp3 (031219) This clip was created by artist Rob Hordijk. He used three G2 Patches simultaneously in a G2 Performance setup with inter-Slot MIDI control from internal sequencer modules. The sounds are synthesized on the G2 and no samples or external effects are used. G2_Dramatic_SEQ.mp3 This clip was created by Sean Charles and is a recording of a single G2 Performance. Modulations and parameter tweaks was recorded in Logic. The sounds are synthesized on the G2 and no samples or external effects are used. G2SeqsPlusNoise.mp3 This demo was recorded live using two single patches: a sequencer patch made by Dasz Garncarz and an ambient "feedback" pad made by Curt Nolte. The sequencer patch runs in one slot and the feedback pad in another. The sounds are synthesized on the G2 and no samples or external effects are used. These four improvised recordings were created by artist Rob Hordijk. PressureBass.mp3 and OddEvenHarmonicDistortion.mp3 are analog style "electro" sequences with automated and real-time modulation. WateryTexture.mp3 is a simulation of the sound of running water together with some sound effects. ShamansWailingLonghornsInCave.mp3 is a movie soundscape with distant "detuned" horns and sound effects. All sounds are synthesized on the G2 and no samples or external effects are used. G2_teaser.mp3 This demo was created by keyboard player, composer and sound designer Åke Danielson. The demo is divided into two parts: the first part is a "euro disco" style arrangement and the second part is a "blues/rock" style arrangement. The electric guitar sound in the second part was played live by Åke on the internal keyboard of the Nord Modular G2. Note that all sounds are synthesized on the G2 and that no samples are used. G2Guitar.mp3 This is another demo created by keyboard player, composer and sound designer Åke Danielson. The patch utilizes physical modeling to simulate the sound of plucked strings - in this case the sound of an acoustic guitar. A StringOscillator module is used to generate pitched notes out of very short noise bursts. A Reverb module is also used to give the sound a nice ambience. The patch was played live by Åke on the internal keyboard of the Nord Modular G2. Note that the sound is synthesized and that no samples are used.
Nord Lead 2X	In these demo songs, we use one Nord Lead 2X. The sequences are stored in the Nord Lead 2X´s ROM. No overdubbing, external effects or sound processors have been used.

I made it for the Japanese Keyboard Magazine June 2001 issue and you can find it on the attached CD. The sound I created indicates how far the Nord Lead 3 can go with the help of a few MAS plug-ins. I used only Nord Lead 3 for the composition and recorded through Digital Performer 2.72 with just two MAS plug-ins, one reverb and one delay. Of course, neither Equalizer nor any other editing like cut and paste was used."   NL3Dreamer (1.23 min, 1,293 kb) This demo is made by the famous sound designer and synth programmer Zon Vern Pyles. What you hear is only a single Performance patch from the Nord Lead 3 that is being modulated and morphed to change characteristics.

Viagra (26 sec, 301 kb) This is an extract of a song made by Peter Gorges. He uses a Nord Lead 1 for the "guitar" lead sound. The lead sound is only processed using a standard EQ and some delay, that's it - no external chorusing, no distortion. Main ingredients of the sound are FM (creating the distortion) and Unison mode (creating the fatness). Changeling_edit (2.01 min, 1,892 kb) This ambient dance track, made by Andy Allder, is made entirely using a Nord Micro Modular. Andy recorded 16 tracks on Cubase VST24 and really pushed his G3 to the limit with the FX plugins. Viva Modular! edit (1.54 min, 1,775 kb) This track, made by Jon Drukman under the name Bass Kittens, was recorded with a Kurzweil K2000 (drum samples), Nord Lead (bass, filter drone), and the Nord Modular (everything else). The buzzy rhythm (heard at the beginning) was sampled into the K2000 because all slots on the modular were already used for other sounds. All Modular knob tweaks are performed live. The Bite demo (1.49 min, 1,697 kb) This track is made by Xoxos. The track is entirely Nord Lead 1 recorded on a Fostex DMT-8VL harddisk multitrack recorder, and shows the Nord Lead's harsher sound capabilities.

Other synths used are Emu E64, Kawai K5000r, Alesis DM5 + fx. Recovery (5.33 min, 5,210 kb) This song is made by Jimmy Myhrman of Sweden. The pad in the background is a Yamaha CS1x synthesizer, the 909-hihats and the crash cymbal are played by a Roland MC505 groovebox, the India-percussion and the sound effects are samples, and everything else is played by the Clavia Nord Micro Modular (including all the drums except the crash and the 909-hihats). The track was created using Cakewalk and HD-recording. FX-Plugins were used as well to add delay and reverb to the Micro Modular sounds. Wolfkamp (2.04 min, 1,944 kb) This song is made by Dutch drummer and percussionist Jan Wolfkamp. He used a ddrum3, a Nord Lead 1 and a Nord Modular in this song. He used Logic Audio to record everything. In the ddrum3 he made some multi samples from the wavedrum and some gamalan type sounds and tuned china cymbals. There are also afro drum sounds and gongs etc. At the end of the song there are tabla multisamples. The vocal sounds are samples of siberiantalk and afrotalk. He sampled them into the ddrum3 and sent the samples to the audio in of the Nord Modular and processed them further. The string chord sound in the beginning (00.12) is from the Nord Modular. The song starts with an organ puls from the Nord Lead layered with another Nord Lead sound. The contra bass type sound at 1.12 is from the Nord Modular. The organ at 00.42 is also the Nord Modular.

Clavia MP3 Competition winners	1. 'Select' by Dan Lind Dan is a hobby musician and is very fond of his Micro Modular. 'Select' was recorded and overdubbed live on a Scully 8-track recorder and no external sequencer was used. The first melody line was played on a Korg Mono/Poly and a "swirl" sound on a Juno 60, but all other sounds are Micro Modular. If you have a Nord Modular or a Micro Modular you can download the patches used in this track. Download: Select edit.mp3 (2.02 min, 1,900 kb) 2. 'Baby I Love U' by Tommi Lindell The sounds in the song were done with the Nord Modular, with the exception of a few vocal samples. In the verse Nord Modular was played through a talk-box. In the chorus the singing parts were done with a vocoder patch and a formant filter patch, which actually says ”Baby I Love You” (if you have a Nord Modular or a Micro Modular you can download the patch and check it out). The drums, bass, guitar, strings and fx are all programmed and played from the Modular. An old Alesis ADAT was used for recording and some of the Nord Modular´s sound effects were sampled to an E-mu E4XT Ultra. The sequencing was done on a Mac running Opcode´s Studio Vision Pro program. The song was mixed with the Yamaha 01v mixer. The only processing (besides the talk-box) was some slight equalizing and a little reverb for some drum parts.

Download: Walking2min.mp3 (2.03 min, 1,925 kb) 10. 'Alien' by Darrell C. Hazelrig The instruments used on the song include my Nord Lead, Korg Wavestation, Sequential Circuits Prophet 600, and AKAI S3000XL. Without a doubt the Nord played the most vital role in the song. I programmed the bass sound on the Nord. The bass is what drives the song, and what great bass sounds you can make with that thing. The next sound I used from the Nord is the arpeggios. I would call that the lead instrument when it kicks in at the end, but it's also throughout the song as a texture. It adds motion and dynamic to the track. The AKAI handled all the drum sounds as well as the voice samples. The Wavestation was the pads and sound fx. And the Prophet played a few texture fx sounds. Here's basic rundown: Nord Lead: Bass and Arpeggios. Wavestation: Pads and FX. Akai: Drums and Voice. Prophet: Textures and FX. Download: Alien2ed.mp3 (2.00 min, 1,875 kb) 10. 'Let It Go' by Christin Bastiansen and Kjetil Rostad Equipment used: Clavia Micro Modular, Korg KaossPad, Christin’s vocal , Boss DR-202 Dr.Groove, Roland VG-8, Shure SM8, Cakewalk Pro Audio 9.0, Yamaha DSP Factory. All the drumsounds on the tune is done with the Boss DR-202. I used some Micro filter modules to process some of the ”industrial” sounds that came from the DR-202. The vocals are all clean, except for the deep, chanting vocal during the chorus. This is processed with the Micro using the audio ins, feeding some filter modules, and a distortion module. The bass, which comes in on the second verse, is the Micro with a simple sinus tone and a rather short decay time. The warm pad sound that goes through the entire tune, is a patch I made using LFO’s as oscillators, thereby getting the polyphony count up to 6 voices. The swell sound on the intro is done with a VG-8. Download: Let It Go (edit).mp3 (1.51 min, 1,733 kb) 10. 'Seconds To Impact' by Hans Vetter (Herr Veffen) The following instruments were used: Nord Rack: Slow FM synth arpeggio sound, Fast arpeggio sound, Offbeat bass, Layered lead sound, Gated factory preset (42??). Nord Modular: Terminator 2-like alarm sound, Vocoder phrase, TB303 sound, Lead sound, Gated chord. Roland Juno106: LFO filter string sound. Akai S2800: Gated choir.
