Great sounds! I just downloaded several of these and will load to my NS3 later. I have a couple of songs that could benefit from these samples. Thanks!

What do you think - this pack may be derived from Spitfires 'Abbey Road 2 - Iconic Strings'? They are five players as well.

Paul Thomson confirms this in the Bonners vid. I loaded them into my Stage 3, what a brilliant pack. Hopes are high for more Spitfire content later on! Exciting times.

What a shame that the nsmp2 format does not seem to be supported by this collection... :(
Sounds like an odd way of planning obsolescence by dropping support for the samples they provide for free anyway.
Hope the npno samples do not follow the same route.


It is supported!

Another brilliant demonstration with the new samples from Tony White:



EDIT: I have added here the Percussion sample Tony is using in the video. It is part of the "old" sample library, a set called "NSMP Sonatina Percmallet".

The only way is to re-sample each of them, very time consuming …
Regards Schorsch

Check this awesome website to visualize NS2/3 programs and re-create them on the other instrument!

Guys, this is the New Nord. Post-Covid. Lean and mean. It's a cold, cruel world out there in Digito-Musicland. Warm fuzzies and we are the world and hey how are ya may have worked in the past, but NOT ANYMORE. Not with Korg and Yamaha breathing down their rumps! You want the new samples? Buy a new Nord. They gotta eat in Sweden too you know. And come on, Electro 4? That's so 2010s.
