    The Lead for Speed

    This is the new Nord Lead A1 analog modeling synthesizer - a stunning sounding synthesizer with a simplified yet hugely powerful front panel interface. Thanks to its carefully thought-out user interface, the Lead A1 encourages experimentation, allows for far speedier programming than would otherwise be possible, and ultimately delivers sensational sonic results.
