Sound Demo: Nord Stage2 Sound Mash-Up #1 [Various Artists]

I thought I’d share something a bit different today. I know it’s been a while since I did a "mash up” so I decided I would just test out some of the sounds my new Nord Stage 2 has to offer.
This was NOT something I was able to practice, and its purely for the benefit of showcasing the sound of the instrument (i.e. sorry for the bad mistakes in my playing !) - so its very much impromptu !
Some of these sounds have been downloaded from the Nord User Forums website (www.norduserforums.com) so i thank the people who created some of these awesome sounds, the majority however were on board when i purchased the Nord.
Please let me know what you think anyway, I generally like feedback (positive though :)
Way It Is - Bruce Hornsby & The Range
Stand Back - Stevie Nicks
Chariots of Fire Synth - Vangelis
If You Don’t Know Me By Now - Simply Red
I’m Not In Love - 10CC
Harry’s Theme - Man from Snowy River Soundtrack
Never Tear us Apart - INXS
I Can’t Fight This Feeling Anymore - REO Speedwagon
Logical Song - Supertramp/Roger Hodgson
Every Breath You Take - The Police
Man of Colours - Icehouse
Bastian’s Happy Flight - Neverending Story Soundtrack
Unknown - Just made it up on the spot using Arpeggiator
Alone - Heart
She’s Like The Wind - Patrick Swayze
Just The Way You Are - Billy Joel
Your Song - Elton John
Terminator (1984) theme
Final Countdown - Europe
A Groovy Kind of Love - Phil Collins

Note you can add samples through layers. I'm currently sampling from Reasons and Omnisphere time consuming but check out my page in coming weeks I will have my samples demo..through splits, and layers !

    I just purchased a Nord and humbly ask that if you could give what settings (piano, organ, synth) etc you are using on each song.... that it would help so much... You do a fabulous job. Finding the right "sound" for each song for me is the most difficult part. Great job and thanks so much! Like Super Tramp, Stevie Nicks, and Bruce Hornsby...

    Freedom1Seeker Hello!. Congrats on the purchase. Funnily enough i can't remember for the life of me what i used for each demo, however... the artists your mention, from memory are onboard sounds that come with the Nord Stage 2. The Phil Collins sound for example is a patch/sound i downloaded from the Nord User forums website. You've made a good point, and from now on i will mention the sound(s) used in the tracks i do. I will add though, this is the first mash-up i have done that uses a variety of sounds.. normally i stick to the one sound ! :) If you'd like further info, send me an inbox message.

    Hello Jack, Yes this was actually a "patch/Sample/Program file" i found on the norduserforum website. Users of the forum often create their own unique presets/samples and share these for free. There is a section on there i am pretty sure that is where i found that patch. I have a feeling the "samples" or sounds were already on the Nord Stage2 as a default however the "preset" settings and how the sound is shaped is in the program file that was available on that website... if that makes any sense. ? www.norduserforum.com i think

    +Tazty Kake there are some amazing VST's out there and i may be old fashioned to an extent, but for me I prefer to adjust and control sound on the actual synth itself, however with a VST often there are much more options of control not possible on a synth. its really down to your own opinion i guess, nearly every video i have done on the Nord is a mixture of both. 1 x Audio Track capturing a AIFF/Audio track from the Nord, live.. and i have also armed a software track using a VST as an overlay which adds a little more depth to my sound. I have kind of made my own signature sound mixing both at once .. :)

    +Danny Vasquez I'm not totally sure of the exact comparison between specifications, however i think that one huge difference is the onboard storage capacity is greater on the newer EX model. I tend to use quite a few software synths that are included in Apple Logic X, so i tend to get by for now. I would love extra storage on my Nord though, it would be great. Im pretty sure its only around 500mb or 1000mb .. samples can vary in size but a good quality Piano Sample in high quality is around 300mb or more.
