The introduction of sample players in the mid eighties created a gap in the world of synthesizers - a gap that twenty years later only has grown wider. The Nord Wave closes that gap and brings the user replaceable samples to life again by integrating them in a virtual analog environment. Does the better of two worlds sound too pretentious for you? Wait until you have heard the Wave. **WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT?**By having two oscillators capable of producing a vast array of sounds from classic analog waveforms (with sync) FM synthesis wavetables sampled waves (single cycle waveforms with attack) as well as noise and other miscellaneous waveforms the Nord Wave has an unprecedented pallet of sounds for you to use as foundation. Need a rich and full string quartet? No problem just call up a string sample. Want a highly resonant screaming lead? Sure; virtual analog is there but why not combine them not just mix them together? With the Wave you can create an analog lead with the harmonic content of the sampled string quartet! With oscillator modulation you can transfer the character of one sound to the other - for instance a sampled string to an analog square. By controlling the amount of modulation the effect can range from very subtle to extremely aggressive so that the original waveforms are no longer recognizable. Within moments you will experience sounds never heard before sounds that will function as a great source of inspiration and lift the joy of playing and sound design to new levels. **DIGITAL SAMPLES IN AN ANALOG ENVIRONMENT**The sound of a resonant filter with a 24 d B slope applied to a sampled sound brings it so much to life that some times this is all you need but there are many other parameters available to affect your samples. All elements of an analog synthesizer can be incorporated: amplifier and modulation envelopes LFOs filters and effects. Some convenient sample modifications are also available. By using alternative start points you can skip the attack portion of the sample and only use the body of the sound for e.g. modulation purposes. **OSCILLATOR MODULATION**Oscillator 1 uses two types of oscillator modulation to bring out different characteristics to a blended sound: Phase Modulation and Frequency Modulation. Disparate sounds can be achieved depending on the combination of waveforms generated by the two oscillators ? using oscillator modulation particular characteristics of those waveforms can be seamlessly blended and enhanced to make a new kind of sound. An analog triangle waveform will adopt much of the details of the modulating waveform and make an almost transparent synthesized effect using Phase Modulation. An analog saw waveform will still sound hard when modulated so wavetables can be used instead to create variations in tonal character. Frequency Modulation has a more dramatic effect widening the harmonic content and preserving more of the character of the original waveform.**HIGH QUALITY SAMPLES**To us quality supersedes quantity. Great samples are not determined by their size in bytes but by how well their detail and character are preserved. To assure that our samples meet the highest Clavia standards we have teamed up with several sample creators ? such as Kirk Hunter Studios Precisionsound and Sonic Reality - and licensed some of the very best samples available. Clavia online offers a large number of top quality samples specially created for the Nord Wave - available free of charge.**USE YOUR OWN SAMPLES**The Nord Wave offers the unprecedented power to use any audio recording as an oscillator source in a virtual analog environment. Simply import any standard audio file to the Nord Wave Manager software map it to a key and you are ready to go! **EASY TO USE MANAGER**The Nord Wave Manager developed for OS X and Microsoft Windows is designed to keep things fast and simple. Back up and rearrange programs transfer Sample Instrument files or map your own audio files across the keyboard. You will appreciate the same directness as you?ll find on the Nord Wave panel in the way the Manager works. The Manager includes several features to speed up the usually tedious job of arranging and adjusting individual samples. If you have a single audio file with chromatic (or any other interval) recording of each note you will be up and running within seconds it is that fast and intuitive to use. Keeping functionality in focus it provides the visual tools needed to do the job as fast as possible without a cluttered GUI. The Nord Wave Manager will be a powerful tool to get your samples into the virtual analog environment of the Nord Wave. **FILTER FLEXIBILITY**High quality resonant filters are one of the most important ingredients when creating memorable sounds. The Nord Wave incorporates a total of six different high-quality filter types. Included with standard low- high- and band-pass filters the Wave features a multi peak filter comb filter and a format filter which creates vowel...

You might get the impression you are looking at a regular analog style synthesizer. Nothing could be more right - nothing could be more wrong. Based on a legacy of inventing virtual analog synths almost 15 years ago Clavia takes the new generation of lead synthesizers to the next level. The Nord Wave gives you traditional analog sounds that interact and coexist with pretty much anything you want; by combining analog FM synthesis wavetable and sampled waveforms - you can use literally any standard audio file as a sound source. It is a great sample player and analog synthesizer and so much more!Click on the link below to download an MP3 demo of the Nord Wave Synthesizer

Bananagrams is a FAST and FUN word game that requires NO pencil, paper or board. All you need is a table. One hand can be played in as little as 5 minutes making Bananagrams a great family fun as well as being educational! Bananagrams portability makes it perfect for travel. The whole game is contained within a fun yellow banana shaped pouch that's just the right size to throw in your handbag.... So just grab the pouch and go! The rules are pretty straight forward. Depending on how many players you have, put all the tiles face down and take a certain number of letter for yourself from the bunch. One player shouts 'Split' and everyone turns their tiles over. Then its up to you to try and connect all your letter into intersecting words. You can re-arrange them as many times as you like until you have used all your tiles. Then you shout 'Peel'. This means all players have to take one more tile from the centre bunch. This continues until all the tiles are gone. The player to connect the last tile is the winner. If you are the lucky one you shout 'Bananas' and the game is over... But be careful, a single spelling mistake will make you a 'Rotten Banana!' Your instructions also feature 4 great alternative games to try. Age Suitability: 7+ Players: Between 2 and 8 Contents: 1 x Bananagrams pouch 144 x Ivory-like letter tiles 1 x Instructions Dimensions (in pouch): Length - 23cm Width - 9cm

With no complicated rules to master, Puzzle League DS can be enjoyed by anyone just wanting to pick up and play, but it also provides challenges for even the most practised of players. As multi-coloured blocks rise from the bottom of the screen, players must rearrange individual blocks and attempt to line up three or more of the same colour. If a player is successful then the blocks will disappear. To perfect your puzzling skills, planning and strategic thinking are crucial as the levels become harder and blocks begin to fall faster. To survive players must aim to clear as many blocks as they can in one go to get the highest score possible. Combining addictive puzzle action with simple touch-screen controls, Planet Puzzle League couldn't be easier to play. Players use the stylus to grab blocks and slide them left and right. If they match three or more blocks of the same color, the blocks will vanish. Form chains and combos to create an avalanche of blocks and rack up high scores. Up to four players can battle over local wireless, and two can slug it out over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. The Wi-Fi Novice mode even lets newcomers learn the ropes in a stress-free environment Planet Puzzle League supports full voice chat over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Once players and friends have exchanged Friend Codes, they can talk for free while they battle each other. The voice chat feature is also compatible with the Nintendo DS Headset.
