Nord Wave 2 Oscillator Specifications

Post by waxdoctor »

Is there something wrong with the specifications (on NORD website) as I cannot find any of the red underlined settings in the manual:

Or am I missing something :)
I can't check it on the keyboard myself as I'm not at home.

home again, and I can confirm.

there is:
- no "Shape for Wavetables" implemented
- no "Formants" to choose from in Wavetables
- no "Vocal" setting in FM

Perhaps they updated the website prior a new upcoming firmware release that covers these new settings, haha.

How odd. Have you emailed Clavia/Nord to clarify?

no, I have not. I did email tech support for some other findings(known bugs) and gave also some feedback in their feedback section, but haven't heard back. so I will not report that one, as it feels like emailing into the ether. :)

It looks like the specifications were done before the manuals and never changed-

Would be cool if you write them as well, because when I wrote them about the same problem (no formant settings, no vocals) over a year ago I felt I am the only one in the universe complaining about this. Thing is, they include all those "boring" organ type and acoustic waves but miss out all those interesting PPG and VP330 synthetic voices. Especially when you consider the Wave 2 is their current flagship synthesizer. Greetings Paul

As I already mentioned in another thread, I contacted them a month ago RE: vibrato bug, but no answer at all.
Bad behavior and/or bad support team in my country.
It's like sending an email to outer space.
Did you get an answer back from them?

That is sad, really. I am thinking of giving it back/selling it and never taking anything from them again.
