Subject:Numa/C2 reviews in keyboard magazine
Great reviews on both the Numa and the Nord C2 organs in this issue of keyboard magazine..
Numa conclusion:
"The Numa Organ is the best sounding single-manual clone I've yet played". Tonally, the Numa is the perfect balance of hi-fi detail, big but natural stereo spread, and balls when you want 'em. The rotary simulation simply kills". The reviewer goes on to suggest it lacks some tweakability of certain parameters (leslie settings, alternate tonewheel sets etc).. but overall it was a great review.
Nord C2 conclusion:
"The Nord C2 is to dual-manual clones as Studiologics Numa Organ is to single manual ones. Which is to say, it's the current king of sound and portability. Where the Numa excels at being a no-frills, stand-up-and-shred B3 machine, the C2's variety of organ and amp models, deeper editing options, and effects make it fit a wider range of musical applications. It can grind, scream, and spin with the best of 'em". The reviewer praises it's portability for the modern gigging era. Similarly great review.
I know that Keyboard magazine has been criticized in the past for their reviews because they tend to be overly positive but in this case I own a C2 and I've had a Numa to test, and I have to agree with the author on the above.. both are great organs!!
Pick up the newest issue of Keyboard if you want to read the full reviews..
