Find Amazing Retro Sounds in The Nord Electro 3
Music enthusiasts can now experience an improved musical instrument from Nord. A successor to the Electro 2 has been released to the market to fulfill the demand for more creative sounds. It is called the Nord Electro 3; a semi-weighted waterfall keyboard which features retro sounds. When you see it you will notice that it looks similar to the previous Nord Electro keyboards. However, there are some changes in this latest model and new features have been added.
Overview
One big change in the new model is that the main control panel has been moved to the center position. However, the casing seems similar to the Wave and Stage EX series. It features a red case, with grey black and white trim. On the right-hand side the space beside the control panel has a menu hierarchy stamped. Performer can also use this space to accommodate a laptop.
Some important features are Nord C1 organ engine, new effects and EQ, bigger on-board memory, a monitor input and the Mellotron library. The Electro 3 offers two keyboard sizes (61- and 73-note) with the waterfall organ format.
Sounds
Noticeable sound improvement has been made in the C1 engine. The rotary emulation, percussion and key click now present much better sounds for you. New settings are available such as a setting for key acceleration, percussion level control and new key clicks. The piano section also offers some new features. The sample library has been standardized by Clavia; therefore, performers can use this piano instrument across the Electro series. The highest quality of the sound is the Yamaha CP sound and on-board acoustic pianos. These sound very clear and resonant; just like a real piano.
Sample Import
This is the most significant feature of the keyboard. The sample library button allows you to access sounds from Clavia's growing library. This new organ model offers 68MB of flash sample memory onboard with a software editor from Clavia. It is also able to read mono/stereo file formats up to 44.1 kHz at 24-bit resolution.
Effects and Amps
For performers who love adding effects to their music, Nord 3 effect department provides all that they need. There are four sections of effects that provide different unique sounds. The Auto-wah, tremolo, chorus and amp simulators are great effects to use in your music.
Summary
Nord Electro 3 is very powerful and greatly improved. Even though the Stage series are even more advanced than this product is, there are many reasons why you should get Electro 3. The sounds, sample import, effects and amps are attractive features to enhance your music performance.

Girls Don't Pick Their Noses - Do They?
At the time I thought Phyllis Ray would one day become a concert pianist. She entered a talent contest on TV when she was fifteen years old and won first prize.
I can still see her up on the stage, sitting behind that big old black piano. The auditorium was packed, the cameras were rolling, when she started to bang on the keyboard, pound on those ivories, then got down on the high end and started manipulating the keys with the fingers of one hand inside the fingers of the other. She was that good.
But I didn't come here to tell you about all that, Madam (Mr.) toastmaster, fellow toastmasters, and welcome guests. I came here to tell you about an incident that occurred (one day) two years earlier in Mrs. Belt's seventh grade class!
I can't believe Phyllis would do that. I can't believe anyone would do that, especially a girl. It was awful! It was gross! It was shocking to say the least!
Still, I can't deny she was a pretty girl, because she was. I thought her head was a little big at the time, perched up on her long slender neck, but in retrospect, I don't think it was that large at all, it was just that she was such a small girl.
She had slim features, long slender fingers...why, she couldn't have weighted more than fifty pounds. Her face was smooth, her nose was slightly pointed, her eyes were green and her dark brown hair was done up in a pixie hairdo. She was beautiful.
She was a straight A student too! She sat right up front of the class... right by the teacher's desk. I sat in the row behind her and one seat over to the right. There I could see everything she did.
Sonny James was big back in those days and his new song, Young Love, was at the top of the country music charts. There were other songs there as well, songs by Marty Robbins, Faren Young, and others. And Phyllis would sit there at her desk and write those names down, the names of the artists and the names of the songs. She would do that in the margins of her scratch paper: up and down the sides, across the top and bottom, at an angle across the page, upside down, using a variety of fonts with smooth curves.
But, Phyllis' mind was never that far away from what the teacher was saying, what the teacher was doing. There were times that Phyllis would stare at the teacher and blackboard for ten minutes or more, absorbing everything that was said, everything that was done.
On that particular day, Phyllis was wearing a white sleeveless blouse and a pair of jeans that extended down past the middle of her calves. She wore a pair of slippers. I remember the shoes because she kept prying one of them off with the other, back and forth, one at a time, while she continued to doodle on her paper.
On that particular day she had just taken her mind off the blackboard, a portion of her attention was diverted back to the scratch paper on her desk. Then without taking her eye off the paper on her desk - inadvertently or subconsciously - she took her right hand, the thumb of her right hand, and plucked a big old bugger out of her nose and rolled it around between her thumb and middle finger then dropped it on the floor.
Startled that she would do that and mesmerized by the moment, I followed that small round ball of mucus and dirt as it plummeted toward the floor then continued to watch as it bounded around down there for a couple of seconds. Then slowly, ever so slowly, I raised my eye and glanced back to where Phyllis was seated, not believing what she had just done.
A second later, goggled eyed, I shouted, pointing to others in the room and indicating the area where Phyllis sat.
"Did you see that? That girl picked her nose! Girls don't pick their noses! They are not like boys! Girls are on a pedestal. They are adored. They are yearned for. They are loved. They are beautiful. Girls are sugar and spice and everything nice. They are not like boys. They are not snails, nails and puppy dog tails. Girls don't spit in the dirt. Girls don't scratch. Girls don't pick their noses...do they?"

How to Choose a Digital Keyboard For Beginners
When faced with the decision as to what keyboard to buy, musicians are blessed with a huge choice. Whilst it's undoubtedly great to have lots of choice, this can also be a headache working out which one is best for you. Hopefully this article will take away some of the pain of having so many options.
But first a little history about digital keyboards! The earliest music keyboard can be traced back to the early 14th century in what was known as the Clavichord. When a key was played a pick plucked the string associated to that key. These principles were developed and led onto the harpsichord. The keys on these instruments were not touch sensitive until an Italian called Bartomoleo Cristofori had the brainwave to replace the picks with hammers. This was groundbreaking in that the hammers allowed musicians to play each key with any desired velocity e.g. loudly, softly etc. The instrument is known as the piano. The system designed back then hasn't changed much since.
Around 50 years ago Yamaha Instruments integrated electronics as a way to generate simulated sounds. Electric pianos whilst limited in their repertoire of sounds (10-20) and not sounding as rich or full as traditional pianos, electric pianos were more portable - perfect for performers going on tour - can you imagine taking a grand piano on tour!
Building on this breakthrough Yamaha introduced the first digital keyboard in 1983. The digital keyboard uses computer technology to simulate sounds ranging from organs, strings, trumpets, harpsichord as well as a whole host of weird and wonderful sounds. Once again they don't sound as full and rich as pianos. But with the revolution of the more modern sound of the 80's that wasn't so guitar based, digital keyboards helped progress music (subjective I know). Digital keyboards are all about versatility in allowing the user to play two sounds at the same time i.e. bass and piano, play along to various drum patterns, make and store your own sounds, record your own compositions and arrangements on a computer. And to the delight of parents thinking of buying a keyboard for their novice son or daughter, it can be played using headphones.
Okay that's the history lesson over with and onto how to choose the right digital keyboard for you. As with most things one buys, you are dictated by your budget, but this shouldn't be the only deciding factor in what you buy.
Other areas you definitely need to consider are:
1. The number of keys the model has. Most digital keyboards come with either 61 or 76 keys. If you're playing classical or jazz you should ideally buy a piano as they come with 88 keys. If budget doesn't allow this, then obviously you'll need to get 76 key digital keyboard.
2. Does the keyboard come with weighted keys? Models with weighted keys will cost more, but will allow for more expressive playing as the tone changes according to how hard you hit the keys. Non-weighted keys are cheaper, but will not feel so great to touch.
3. Each keyboard manufacturer will have a different variety of sounds and will have an onboard computer that accesses these sounds in different ways. By going to a shop where you can demo the different models you'll have an idea as to how user friendly they are.
4. Every manufacturer of keyboards will also have a range or knobs, dials, sliders and buttons to activate different functions. Once again its best to check out the different models and get a feel for each model.
5. The size and weight of each model whilst not dramatically different may have a bearing on your decision, especially if you need to travel with your keyboard.
6. Other considerations might include whether you plan to use a pedal and whether the keyboard has the ability to plug on in.
As I said it's always best to visit a shop where you can have a look and play on the various models and ask for advice. Having been a user of Yamaha for many years, I trust their range of models. They cater from the beginner all the way to advanced performers. And seeing as they are the creators of digital keyboards, they are in my mind the best choice. One of the best dealers I came across in my search for a Yamaha digital keyboard was Umbrella Music. They gave unbiased advice, were friendly and were competitive in price.
