Nord Organ 3

The acclaimed Nord Organ is back - reborn and reimagined as the all-new Nord Organ 3. The latest generation of our Organ series featuring massive improvements to sound, design and performance. With a greatly enhanced organ engine, added modulation effects and a new exceptional-sounding rotary speaker emulation, the Nord Organ 3 offers an unsurpassed level of detail and realism.

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.

Vibrato and Chorus Scanner
Reworked from the ground up, the new vibrato and chorus captures the unique qualities of the original instruments, offering either the gentle character of a '50s B3 chorus scanner or the deep modulation of a '70s instrument.

Bass Models
The Bass Model section of the Nord Organ 3 provides matching bass models for all the organ types and includes a range of classic synth bass sounds, greatly expanding the sonic possibilities of the instrument. The bass can optionally be routed to a dedicated audio output, for separate treatment of organ and bass manuals on stage or in the studio.

Rotary Speaker emulation
With a brand new approach to recreating not only the classic rotary sound, but also the characteristics of both the amp and speakers, the Nord Organ 3 features an exceptional Rotary Speaker emulation with multiple microphone perspectives.

Microphone perspectives
The Nord Organ 3 offers several microphone positioning options corresponding to popular ways of reproducing the classic rotary speaker sound, both on stage and in the studio. These variations in microphone placement affect both the perceived movement as well as the tonal character of the rotary speaker, ranging from punchy and present to smooth and open.

Reverb and Delay
The Reverb section features 6 different types including a brand new Spring Reverb as well as Booth, Room, Stage, Hall and Cathedral options.

The Pre-Rotary setting allows the reverb to be placed before the Rotary Speaker, like a reverb equipped organ connected to a Rotary Speaker. With Pre-Rotary turned off, the reverb is placed after the Rotary Speaker emulating a room or other ambient environment.

Modulation effects
The Modulation effects include classics such as Chorus, Phaser and Flanger - all modeled on legendary hardware units - as well as Ring Modulation for a variety of creative and experimental sounds and a versatile Tremolo effect. The Modulation effect can be assigned to the upper manual only, keeping the lower and pedal manuals clean.
