virtual analog

By BOULDER D4SH on January 7, 2024 8:33 pm

So what happen was, last Friday i got a new synth that has ‘virtual analog’ text on it. I had to scrap what i had done so far so i could use this ‘virtual analog’ to do some retro shit.

The synth was Clavia Nord Lead from 1995 and it is THE first ever virtual analog synth ever. They coined the term ‘virtual analog’ or VA as we still know it. I bought this same synth in -95 but sadly sold it after two years, so this is a happy re-union.

This is a minimal trancey track in vibes from -95. All synth sounds are from Nord Lead and i limited them to four as NL is four part multitimbral meaning you can get four simultaneus sounds out from it.

Be sure to hear more of 'The Lead' in coming weeks.

The Nord Lead is such a legend! And you’re meting out its justice here. Fantastic track!

Nice! Really has some 90s VA groovebox vibes.

Nice one, looking forward to hearing more from it.

YES! Love the early Nords! I traded my original last year for a 2X rack, still sounds just as good smile

Great track, the mix is really nice.

Good to see you back! Oh yeaaaah that energy with the kick is epic. Great track to get started, and it gave me a lot of energy!

really enjoyed this, very confident, congrats on week 1!
