Mike,
 
I don't have a 4D, but I did have the C2D OS installed in my C2 before I sold it..  I mentioned this in another post, but there is a lot to like about the new C2D OS (which I believe is in the 4D)... much better leslie sim, better/warmer more realistic Overdrive, less compressed sounding overall.. it's great.. The only things I didn't see as an improvement were the new percussion which sounded less "woody" and more bell-like, along with the new gain structure on the overdrive (the previous OD had a much higher gain as you increased the effect, which I liked, personally). That said I didn't have much time with it, before I sold it to pay for my Mojo, perhaps I could have EQ'd it to better suit my tastes..
 
The thing is that with the 4D you'll have a significantly better sounding organ, AND  you probably won't deam the Ventilator to be necessary anymore, and of course you can toss the Ocean Beach drawbars (unless you decide to use them as a second set of drawbars).. So your rig is going to sound better, without a doubt, AND you're going to have much less stuff to set up.. less devices, chords, etc.. and less to go wrong.
 
I do look forward to hearing a first hand review of the 4D from someone on the list..!!??!!

I got my November copy of Keyboard Mag today....Review of the NE4D was very nice.

My present gig rig is a NE3 w/ VENT and OCEAN BEACH drawbars played thru a

QSC 12/ and PA.

I have had my NE3 since spring of 2010 and
am very used to it ...I use organs B3 Vox and Farfisa . I love the NE3 EP's very much,

I have not yet gotten used to the piano patch sounds... they still sound a bit Tinny or clinky to my

ears ...but i do use them ......

I love the idea of one keyboard only ...that is what works for me ...I do not wish to carry

more than one keyboard to any gig ...Tho I do not play a lot of gigs a year ...4-5
The group i get together with all live about 80 mi from me so i transport my gig rig

to an fro any practices or sat nite rambles ....

I am contemplating upgrading from NE3 to NE4D.

Good things of course were said about the NE4D in the article in Keyboard Mag.
So does anyone of you out there in CloneWheel land or Hammond land ...have a

Nord Electro 4D and have we had a user review it yet ???

thanks for your time

Mike
