Best interface for an analog modeling synth with patch recall.
LED rings around rotary encoders jump to match actual value when changed by patch load or group (eg: mod wheel or aftertouch) so there is really effective visual feedback for the current state of settings. This doesn't matter for everyone's workflow, for example if you don't change many parameters during performance, but if you do -- it's really helpful.

Flexible synth, but with an aging editor that is hard to get running on modern hardware.
The Nord Modular is a great virtual modular synth but the editor was't updated past the version which ran on Windows from the Windows 2k / XP era. There is a version which wraps the old editor with Wine though. The virtual modules still sound good today, and you can run two channels of external audio in for processing as well.
