I use my push 2 with Bitwig, works great.

Seriously considering getting a 3p as oppose to Roland SPD. Do Nord regularly issue firmware updates for these instruments or is it forgotten ware ? They sound great and have been around for a few years so might there be a new drum synth on the way from Nord ? Oh, and thanks for the video, very informative.

I really don’t need any more gear. I just need to watch videos about the gear I already own. This is great.

Heavy user of Nord drum over the last year and I learned a few things from the video. Nicely done.

Sick. Original vibes.

I see this is quickly becomming the future, digital emulation of analog circuitry, and its quirks

Cool sounds and demo, maybe remove "analog" from the title though

If u own a Octatrack or Digitakt the 3P is amazing sequencing from them

Nice demo… Feel like they have added a new life to this app with the AU3 support… Many good sound options available with Gadget.

I like how they have been keeping Push 2 up to date. It's fun to be able to play with all the new features on the old hardware.

It would be great if you have a detailed video on using midimaping. Not how to map but more about workflow. I wonder if you map a filter on a knob on novation circuit tracks (or rhythm) do you need to remap it if you swap the synth in the app. Could it be setup like a NI Maschine workflow - when you have software synths and you control them from a hardware device without remaping every time.

606 was underrated

Superb

Thanx bro

Dude, you've got IT. Whatever IT is, you have THAT STUFF as Dave Bristow said. STUFF

Bloomin heck! What the heck is this? Bursting out and a nice demo. Cheers!

Hey man, another cool demo! Not enough people are going over what's possible in apps. I've been curious about the new Multi/Poly but this might have what I need for much less.

Sounds fantastic in your hands! I keep forgetting that I have Korg’s computer (VST, AU) version of Mono/Poly

My trick for coping with GAS is abject poverty, a few addictions and the fact that I like being at work as little as possible. It works 👍 😂😢

I don't think we need to mention how first world our probs are when we are getting iOS synth advice on KZbin. That's a whole first world situation right there. Not that you can't be doing the same thing in Eritrea. But at least at the moment they have more pressing issues, THIS is important to me here in NJ. Lol

For Mac only 😭😭😭

the problem with the oddysey on gadget is the multiple pages.... a real oddy is one of the funnest and most intuitive synths ever..... for me the gadget version isn't a problem because i already know it well, but i can understand how it would be frustrating for someone just coming to it this way

Gadget is why i have no GAS for the ableton Move

I don’t really use other plugins, since I have Gadget available in my DAW. The midi tool on IOS is my favorite.Funktion. Expensive is relative. You get a lot for the price.

Nice vid. I love gadget. I do wish the Mac version was more affordable but it’s definitely my favorite iOS production app. Stable as all hell too! Thinking about getting the KORG stage keyboard to pair with it.

What keyboard is that

Your polysix sounds bad because it's the ios version. But I can assure you that with the vst version you would have difficulty differentiating it from the hardware.

Appreciate the post-processing notes, I know sharing ideas doesn’t get as much traction as talking about equipment so thanks for making these types of videos. Great playing too

How do you make an arp repeating a note? For example: C/G/G/G, ..., awesome video, thanks ❤

Waaaaaay too much talking not enough demonstration of the product 👎🏾

I love mine and about to mod it to have all 6 trigger inputs. The lack of trigger inputs is number 5 in my book.

Sick!

I love it

I wish I could get on board with software. I just find them way less inspiring than my analog synths and they always sound fake to me compared to the real thing.

Whatever works. Software is often more efficient, hardware is often more fun. I use both.

I'm a closeted software guy 🙋

Such an interesting topic! I often look at my midi controllers and think: there must be a smooth way of creating like the most amazing set-up with only the controls I need. A set-up way more powerful than any hardware synth you could buy, because you can create the controls you need and ignore all modulation options you don't use anyways. But then I'm so intimidated to start, because midi mapping and figuring out technical problems is like the least musical feeling thing I could think of 😅 still, it gives you great results if you go through it. But most of the time I'm actually thankful that hardware gives me a limited frame to work with. I feel like accepting the limitations of hardware makes me more productive, because I don't start to question everything. Currently I'm trying to make simple and short live recorded songs with the Nord Drum, no editing possible, and it's so liberating. I prefer hardware though that can make full tracks, instead of just one sound, so you can have independent channels/tracks. That's kind of my personal criteria for the question whether it's worth the investment or not. Thanks for bringing up this topic 💚

this is fuckin sick well done

I’ve been on a selling spree lately and it feels really good to get rid of some stuff. I think I’ll probably always have several pieces of hardware but I think being “productive” is much easier with software. By the way, loving both Abigail’s album and your ep!

Good analog and specifically vintage synthesizers have many drawbacks. They are expensive, require regular and complex maintenance, need ample space and are not easy to transport for gigs, among other challenges. However, they have one key advantage where they outshine software synthesizer emulations: sound. Don’t get me wrong as soft synths can achieve things that hardware synths cannot, and ultimately, it all comes down to personal preference. But when comparing the sound of vintage analog synths to software emulations, there is still a noticeable difference in most of them, both technically and aesthetically and it can be explained. Unfortunately, your "pocket Polysix" doesn’t sound quite like the real thing. I have them both compared to each other and it is not hard to tell that. Arguments like "who can tell in a mix if you use vst or analog" are flawed, because the best source should ideally be your first choice when starting your composition and instrumentation. Also to make clear again this is not a "hardware vs software" issue here but more a "vintage analog vs vintage analog emulations". Keep up the nice work and thank you.

Hell yeah 😎

Hardware totally killed it. Artura defo sounds bad to my ears

Awesome ! 🖤

🔥

Awesome man. Love your work. I’ve noticed a lot of time I use the fm for kicks the low end kinda lacks. I love using the eq to make up for it! ND3P for life!

Good vid. I got the Push 2 like a year before the Push 3 was released. Was kinda thinking about upgrading, but 2 things prevented that for me: 1) There's only a few new features between the Push 2 and 3 and the standalone Push 3 is the only impactful one imo. 2) I JUST got an Push 2 a year ago before the 3 released lol. I'm going to just stick with the Push 2 and wait for the Push 4 before upgrading.

Nice. You should have a look at Udu/Ibo drums for an upward pitch bend. Basically a water drop sound.

Tablas and timpani are two examples where you might bend the pitch up from a lower starting tone.
