Find the right sounds fast
The Sound Select feature in the Nord Drum 3P makes it effortless to browse a broad selection of killer drums sounds and assign them individually to each pad. Select sounds from the new preset library to instantly replace kicks, toms, or cymbals.

This arrangement is very effective when you need to find the right sounds fast.
Real-time sound generation
