Organ models
The Nord Organ 3 features meticulously crafted emulations of iconic tonewheel and transistor organs with hands-on controls. Each model is the result of detailed analysis of carefully selected vintage instruments, capturing every nuance of the legendary organ sounds.
B3
The B3 model features three different tone wheel modes ranging from the clean sound of a factory new unit to a road worn vintage character with increased tone wheel cross talk and leakage.
Key Click is an important characteristic of the B3 sound and is recreated in great detail on the Nord Organ 3. The three options are selectable from the panel and allows for quick fine tuning of the Key Click level.
The B3 Percussion effect includes a Poly mode, which enables polyphonic use of the Percussion even when holding chords or playing legato. The DB9 Cancel setting allows for deactivating the 9th drawbar when Percussion is turned on, as on the original instrument.
Vox
The iconic sound of the Vox organ has been refined even further for the Nord Organ 3, with revamped waveform shapes and filters as well as updates to both the key click and vibrato character.
Farfisa
The new generation Farfisa model conveys the character of the original tone generators and filters with great precision, including the complex filter interactions when combining registers.
Soft B3 and Pipe
The Soft B3 model is based on the B3 tone wheel organ, but without the key click and other artifacts, for a softer and more mellow sound. The Pipe model faithfully recreates a set of principal pipe organ ranks; the metal pipe registers that commonly make up the foundational sound of a pipe organ. The Pipe organ chorus mode switches to a model tuned with less precision, adding further realism to the sound.
