Key Features
The Nord Lead A1R is a desktop and rack-mountable synthesizer with an identical feature set to the Nord Lead A1, combining a next-generation analogue modelling engine with a streamlined interface.
Product Ref: 46100
The next generation virtual analog synth is capable of reproducing the character and nuances of the vintage synths of your dreams with breathtaking accuracy. A 24-voice polyphonic and four part multi-timbral, the Lead A1R is a flexible choice for stage or studio, delivering a rich and versatile palette of sounds.
There's a new oscillator section, allowing patches to be created and edited faster than your expect for a synthesizer this complex. 47 different waveforms can be created with the new waveform engine. With intuitive controls on the front panel, it's quick to experiment with modulations.
The effects section introduces two new impressive vintage Chorus and Ensemble models. Delay, Reverb, Drive, Phaser and Flanger complete the effects line-up. Additional functions include the new 'Like' function, allowing you to scroll between 'Liked' patches and choose your favourite to save to memory, and the Mutator, creating a variation of an existing patch by adjusting certain parameters by set rules.
