The Clavia Nord Drum is a virtual analog drum synthesizer, that Clavia claims is capable of 'retro-futuristic' percussion sounds.[1] It was unveiled by Clavia at NAMM 2012, and released in March 2012.
Features
The Nord Drum has four channels, in other words it is capable of creating four different drum sounds at once. Each channel can be triggered either from MIDI or from drum triggers, and the Nord Drum can therefore both be used to add electronic sounds to a drum kit, or be controlled from sequencers or MIDI keyboards. Each sound can be made up of a tone, a click and noise.[1]
