Description
The Nord Grand 2 features a new and improved Kawai responsive hammer keyboard with triple sensors for accurate hammer movement detection.
By retaining the ease of use of the original Nord Grand while adding dual layers of piano and synth, the Nord Grand 2 offers greater flexibility for performance and sound creation.
The well-balanced and responsive triple sensor key system features an advanced hammer mechanism that provides extraordinary control over the entire dynamic range.
PERFORMANCE
The Nord Grand has dedicated LED faders for each layer, as well as buttons for all the essential functions required for a live performance. Tasks such as creating layers and splits, adding effects or transposing the instrument can be performed instantly.
The dual piano and synth engines can be combined into one layer or split across the keyboard, with each layer having a dedicated effects section.
The Nord Grand 2 has 7 split points indicated by LED lights, and the split point crossfade provides smooth transitions between two zones. Choose from 3 different crossfade widths (Small, Large or Off), which are indicated by different LED colors.
THE PIANO SECTION
The Nord Grand 2 comes with a comprehensive selection of grand pianos, upright pianos and electric pianos from our exclusive Nord Piano Library combined with new features such as Dynamic Compression and Unison.
Our state-of-the-art sampling technique captures the extraordinary nuances and true character of the source instruments. Our unique 'Advanced String Resonance' and Dynamic Pedal Noise features deliver astonishing realism and an unparalleled level of expressiveness.
SAMPLE SYNTH SECTION
Two independent Sample Synths with significantly expanded memory and a large selection of new and updated sounds ranging from winds, brass, strings, basses and guitars to classic analog leads and synth basses. Additionally, a selection of samples from the Symphobia and Swing libraries of ProjectSAM are included.
The Sample Synth section provides two fully featured and independent layers and features intuitive controls for attack, decay/release and dynamic velocity response. Soft and Bright settings provide a quick way to shape the sound.
The Grand 2 Sample synth engine offers several new features. Unison creatively blends multiple samples for rich, ensemble-like sounds, "Tru-Vibrato" accurately models the unique vibrato characteristics of a wide range of wind, brass, and string instruments, and round robin allows for natural-sounding rapid repetitions. Vibrato is controlled by knob, pedal, or the preset delay setting. The Sample Synth section also features Mono and Legato modes with adjustable Glide rate.
Effects section
Powerful new effects section per layer with a comprehensive range of reverb, delay, amp and modulation effects
