Oh man!  We see some cool synths and organs coming through the shop all the time, but this one might take the cake.  The Nord C2D Dual Manual Combo Organ showed up a little bit ago, and it has to be one of the cooler organs we have tried.

HERE IS A LINK TO OUR LISTING FOR THE NORD

From Nord’s website… “The Nord C2D Combo Organ gives you two sets of physical drawbars per manual. Perfect for players who use the drawbars as well as the keys, the C2D includes a handy new left-hand preset section for hands-on control. In addition, the upper manual has been tilted, so you get better access and smoother transition when switching between manuals. Nord has also improved the mechanical key-click, percussion, and rotary-speaker simulations. If you’re after the real-deal organ playing experience, we’ve got the instrument for you: the Nord C2D Combo.”

This unit comes with the Nord “leslie” control switch… see pic below for details. 

Here are some main features highlighted my Sweetwater.com…

“With 2 sets of physical drawbars per manual, extremely realistic simulations of a B3 tone wheel organ, Vox and Farfisa transistor organs and a beautiful sampled baroque pipe organ the new Nord C2D is the ultimate portable organ solution.

A little history on the Nord line of pianos, synths, and organs –

“In 1983 founder Hans Nordelius created the Digital Percussion Plate 1 – the first drum pad allowing for dynamic playing using sampled sounds. The DPP1 was an instant success and soon thereafter the brand name ddrum was introduced. The innovative ddrum pads featured real heads and hoops and gained huge popularity – many people still regard them as the best digital drum triggering system around!

In 2010 the streamlined Nord Piano was introduced, a lightweight stage piano that featured advanced String Resonance and the unique Nord Triple Pedal with pedal noise.

We let the Nord Stage 2 out of the bag at NAMM 2011, sporting a new synth section with sample playback support, more memory, the C2 organ simulation and the Nord Piano Pedal Noise. Nord Stage 2 raised the bar for how a Stage piano should sound and behave. 2012 was an adventurous year for us, with the launch of the Nord C2D, our first organ with physical draw bars as well as the virtual analog drum synthesizer Nord Drum. On top of that we also released the Nord Electro 4 family with the acclaimed Nord C2D tone wheel simulation and introduced the Nord Piano 2 that allowed splitting and layering sounds from the Nord Sample Library.”

This is a really nice setup for any keyboardist, and brings all the features anyone would want.
