I’ve always wanted a Nord since I could remember. One came up locally, offered a trade, and now here we are. I’m going to just stare at it for a bit.
Beautiful sounding machine! But a PITA to to patch at first. For instant satisfaction, nord have excellent downloads for many genres. I love the Kroffe bank for classic 70’s early 80’s

Thank you so much for that James.
Slang’n gear left and right these days
Now I just need to get a perm, sports car, and a girlfriend who’s also a secretary at my work, and my midlife crisis is complete.
Pics when you do please?
Yup.
@Geneoart and I have not dismissed the VCA advice, starting with a dual VCA (Doepfer) but it’s a bit delayed.
@tnussb after your input re: difficulty/experience level, I still made the plunge:) I’ll just have to step up to (and enjoy) the challenge😁
Cheers!
just ordered Zoom LiveTrak L-8.
i own L-12, but it’s not so backpack friendly as i need (bought it about a year before L-8 release).
so, L-12 is becoming my home mixer, and L-8 is going to replace it as mixer (& multitrack recorder — that’s the whole point) for gigs.
yes, i believe there will be gigs in the future.
Just copped the OT to complete the dark trinity and this Zoom H4N this week. I’m using a 3.5mm to 1/4" mono cable to record everything from my phone, laptop and the zoom. Very excited for this weekend!
Already feeling comfortable with the Elektron way
Is the USB audio 2 way between the M:C and the iPad?
Can you monitor AUM in the M:C? Or only the other way around?
Thanks for the detailed reply
But I was asking the other way around, can you hear AUM in the M:C?
Edit: I reread your answer and got it!
Thx again!
Don’t see too many of those in people’s set-ups!
I have the nord rack and i love it- it sits perfectly in the mix and I assume it could be a good companion to a Lyra8

good companion to a Lyra8
Exactly
