Recreate ABBA Sounds on your Nord Stage 3 Keyboard (Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!) 

Hello @Evgeny Alexeev I explain how to download and work with sounds from the Nord User Forum in my courses. I don't have anything here on RU-vid sorry!

@Evgeny Alexeev I also wanted to let you know that this past weekend I created a brand new 30-minute training video on "How to work with sounds from the Nord User Forum" featured on my paid Patreon site as well as in my paid course called "Master the Nord Stage 3" for your consideration. Those on Patreon are already benefiting from this new video since working with sounds from the Forum is a bit of the "Wild West" at times as you have probably already seen. The links for my Patreon site ($5/month and you can cancel anytime) as well as my website are in the description under this video. Best of luck!

Thank you Jmonk Reltub!

Thanks for your kind comment. ABBA has a way of inspiring one to create music (or in this case, do our best to follow along with their music).

Hello @Gora Popkin Not exactly sure what you mean by this, but yes, I continue to push the envelope in certain areas. And most recently, I've become a Sweetwater affiliate which is something I've been working at for 5 years long before they offered such a program.

@Noah Forbes - I just checked out your channel. I like your art - very clever and unique! Let me see what I can come up with for the Harry Styles vibe and congrats on your Nord Wave 2!

@@MyKeysToMusic oh wow man thanks so much! Means a lot! Yeah, I’m love with my Wave 2. Couldn’t ask for a better, more versatile synth

@@noahforbes1999 I completely agree and I'm happy they included the engine in the upcoming Nord Stage 4.

Haha! Thanks Samuel, that is a genuine compliment!

@@MyKeysToMusic You know what's so genuinely annoying about your videos? Next rehearsal I go into the studio saying "let's do this song! I've got the sound for it" - and the fellas just say "You've been watching that guys on RU-vid again haven't you?"

@@TheRooftops Ha!. It's funny you mention this because I've heard this sort of thing before, and it never gets old. You made my day with this comment Samuel. 🤘🏻All the best in 2023!

How interesting!! Even more interesting is that the Bul Bul Efendi song came out one year earlier than the ABBA song... hmmmm.

Just found your video explaning this, thanks! :)

@@Orange_Rabbit Glad you found the video! For others reading this post, here is the explainer video to the Nord demo video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1NCAotVdHxw.html

Hey Borys thanks for the comment. Ya, I tend to do my own interpretation on some of these and play by ear mostly - sorry! 🤣

Hello, that is entirely possible, as I'm playing it by ear. Let me know where or what, so I can understand what you are you're hearing on your end.

Hello Gora. Thanks for your suggestions, and I appreciate the feedback! This means you care (which is always a great thing if we can motivate people to care enough to take the time to comment). So, with that said, kindly allow me to provide my thoughts on this, and I'm delivering this with the utmost respect to your thoughts too. I get that you don't favor the covers, and yes, I've not seen a single official Nord video in any way, even remotely, do anything having to do with cover tunes. Instead, they highlight the very best sounds played by the very best musicians in a quality landscape. I think they should continue to do that, too, because they are really, really good at it. But to ignore the people (their customers) and limit the focus of these amazing keyboards to just the jazz/instrumental genre, I think is a possible misstep on their part. Let me explain. I went to the 2020 NAMM show here in So Cal and spent most of the day at their booth, taking videos, observing things, and talking to as many people as possible, including Clavia employees and the Nord super fans alike. Their performing artists were terrific, as usual while doing their demonstrations, and I have nothing but respect for what they do and how they do it. But I couldn't help but think to myself ("they are leaving so much capability on the table") by only demonstrating jazz, fusion, and funk as their selected genre of music during the demonstrations. Not once did anyone even attempt to talk about the keyboard's ability to play samples or perhaps demonstrate how easy it is to imitate famous sounds from famous songs right there on the built-in synth engine. Why wouldn't they do this? I'm lucky to be in the position to work with thousands of students who take my courses and interact with thousands of people here on RU-vid. I can tell you that the VAST majority of people want to learn how to play and learn how to imitate cover tunes. That's what inspires them, and many times, that inspires me too. Many of Nord customers are, in fact, musicians who play in cover bands all over the world. There are also a great many people that play worship music too. Again, nothing from Nord of someone demonstrating worship music on a Nord. Why not?? Ok, so now that I got that off my chest, I would love to hear what videos you think would be more in line with what you expect? I love making content and delivering what people want to learn about - that motivates me. And by now, you've seen that I do all sorts of stuff on all sorts of topics, and hopefully, people are learning something from each. I like the covers, but I like all the other stuff too. 👍 Let's continue the conversation! 😀🙏🎹

@@MyKeysToMusic Mark , I a big fun ..to start with 🎹. Nord is a great board , but like you said / multi layers ..on ABBA / Swidish again...😄 Anyway, I'm a professional keyboard player, Started play piano about 50 Y ago.. I get you.. Bread and butter sounds. Respect that ! But ... You caught my attention when you go to details of Nord , as a tech

@@MyKeysToMusic may be this will help.. I ll connect you guys .. There's a guy in New York .. Let me see , if I can do it fast

@@gorapopkin104 Thank you, I get what you are saying and I think there are a lot of people watching here that would agree with you 100%. I've been reserving a lot of the "deeper tech talk" to the paying students as it relates to the board itself so that I can provide them with unique value. However, I plan to go really techie on some MIDI setups and continue on other interesting topics such as set list creation using computers/pads and that sort of thing. Topics that focus on rig setup and using other pieces of equipment to enhance the performance are also going to be a focus in the future. Stay tuned and feel free to make suggestions on something you want to learn etc. I really appreciate your interaction and feedback!
