Introducing the D-7 Synth Pack.

The era-defining synth of the 80’s, beautifully sampled for Nord keyboards.

It’s hard to overstate how influential the DX7 synthesizer from the 80’s was and continues to be. Featuring a new form of synthesis and in a lightweight body perfect for touring and hauling to sessions, the DX7 synth was an immediate hit and found its way into almost every album with keyboards on it throughout it’s run.

The DX7’s bell-like tones and smooth basses defined the sounds of  Michael Jackson, Peter Gabriel, Prince, Cindy Lauper, and many, many more during the late 80’s and early 90’s, and it continues to be relevant today.

The Process

• I started by renting a DX7, and spending quite awhile finding the sounds I liked that felt like would transfer well to The Nord in sample form.

• I sampled a bunch of patches, then ran them through effects that were popular during the 80’s, including vintage choruses, reverbs, and delays.

• I chopped all the files up, mapping them for Nord.

New Features

New one-click bundle file installation.

With the new bundled installation option, it’s as easy as dragging and dropping in the bundle file to install your entire pack. It’s still possible to install the individual synth presets and programs, as well- you get to choose the way that works best for you.

New program and synth preset sample lists.

We now have spreadsheets listing all of the samples used in all the program and synth preset files. If you ever are missing a sample or want to just install a couple synth presets, just fire up the spreadsheet and you’ll be able to find what you need quickly.

New double layered program files.

All program files now include a Layer 1 and 2 option, with the first layer being more subtle and the second layer growing into a massive space. Check the videos above for more info.

New updated sample categories

With the Nord Stage 4, all NSMP4 files need to be in the correct category in the sample library. To do this, we recreated all of the root sample files again, re-exporting them in the correct category.

New install guides.

We’ve completely re-written all of our installation guides to make it quick and clear how to install your files. It’s faster and simpler than ever to install your packs.

Easy to install.

If you’re more a visual person, we’ve created a brand new NS4 packs-specific installation video for you. It’s easy and fast to get started:
