The Nord (Clavia Nord) C1 Dual Manual Stage Organ 2 X 61 Note keyboards, With Three Types Of Vintage Organs (Classical Tonewheel, Vox & Farfisa). 1 Only Left In Stock


Some distinct organ sounds have remained popular throughout the decades of pop and rock & roll music ? soulful sounds that breathe and growl as found only in heavy, bulky vintage instruments. Apart from difficulties in sourcing, restoring, and maintaining these vintage organs, their sheer size and weight make them anything but ideal for the gigging musician ? especially when you add out-board effects, amplifiers and speakers.

Further Information:
Now Clavia brings you the very best of those classic setups in a single package. The dual manual Nord C1 Combo Organ comprises three types of vintage organs: a classical tonewheel, Vox* Continental and Farfisa* Compact Deluxe, all carefully modeled from their originals. Also featuring our famous tube style overdrive, rotating speaker simulation, delay, reverb and 3-band EQ effects, the Nord C1 will tailor sounds for your body, mind and soul.

UNDER THE HOOD

The original mechanical tonewheel design as well as the Vox* and Farfisa* transistor designs result in diverse interactions between the different parts involved in the sound generating process. Modern sampling technology is able to play back the result of these interactions, but cannot duplicate the dynamic and random processes involved. Without these crucial steps represented, the response and feel of actually playing the instrument is inevitably lost.
The solution is a real-time, DSP-based model describing the construction and interaction between each part involved. The Nord C1 Combo Organ offers three different organs ? all carefully modeled from vintage originals ? with the sonic result of each part of the tonewheel and transistor designs recreated faithfully.

DIGITAL DRAWBARS & SWITCHES

The fabulous sound aside, some areas of the original instruments? design were up for improvement. For instance, the ability to store your favorite sounds and quickly recall them as you play. This gets hard, as the original switches and drawbar levers physical position will not match the stored sound setting. The Nord C1?s digital drawbars features LED segments that instantly light up to show the current setting. The digital drawbars are just as fast as their physical counterparts, and setting up your sound from scratch ? even live ? is done in no time at all.

3RD SET OF DRAWBARS

No two manual organ would be complete without the ability to play bass notes on a pedal board. The Nord C1 includes two additional bass register drawbars with selectable timbre from either vintage tonewheels or a synth bass. The bass can be controlled with any MIDI-enabled bass pedal board, or by splitting the lower manual.

LIVING EFFECTS

The built-in 3-band equalizer along with three types of speaker simulations and an extremely powerful overdrive offers you total tonal control of your sound. Add a feedback-delay with tap-tempo functionality, and several types of reverberation and you truly have an all-in-one effect section with stunning sound right out of the box.

ROUND AND ROUND

The rotary speaker simulation from Clavia?s award winning Nord Stage and Nord Electro series has been further improved, and now features an even more life-like experience. The Nord C1?s rotary speaker sim incorporates the acoustic variations that occur as a physical rotating speaker spreads the sound around in a room, providing the experience of truly moving the air around.

HIGH LEVEL OUTPUTS

Got volume? The Nord C1 has it in abundance. In addition to its standard line-level outputs the Nord C1 Organ features an 11-pin Leslie* connector. This allows you to transfer the sound directly to your speaker cabinet as well as to control the rotating speed from the Nord C1 Organs front panel. If your speaker cabinet does not feature the 11-pin Leslie* standard connector you can use the high level quarter inch audio output.
AMPLIFY AND TESTIFY

You can divide the stereo line output to separate tonewheel and transistor organ outputs, and connect them to separate amp set-ups.

SUPERIOR RESPONSE

An ultra low trigger-to-sound response time in the Nord C1 Combo Organ offers superior performance compared to any hardware and especially software products. Also, like the vintage original, the sound generation is started the very instant a key is pressed, not like conventional digital keyboard action, where the sound begins when the key hits bottom.
