This is the right place if your topic concerns different Nord Keyboards, you are not sure which one is the right one for you, etc.

If you could have two Nords?

Hello Everyone?

I have a simple question…..

If you walked into a high end Music store, Which two Nord Piano's would you want to see/own?…... Why?

If I only could have two Nords?

Hej Windy!

Today ... I would chose the NP3, for excellent piano & epiano
(I don't use samples or organ any more, which I thought I would like when I bought the NS2)
... and the NLA1 for simple but vintage synth possibilities. :thumbup:

My 2 cents. ;)

NE3HP, NP88, NS2, DPP1, NL2X, NL2X, NLA1, NL4, NE5D, NW2 (Collect Them All?), some classic Rolands, Arturias, a Waldorf, a Kurz, a WONOK3, a pile of guitars, a P-bass, loopers, amps and computers ...
I'm a gearslut! :oops:

Interesting…..

I have no dealers anywhere close to me so this is very helpful.

And a stage 2 to go further with synthesis

Stage 2 EX 88 and Electro 5D
OR
Piano 3 and Stage 2 EX compact

At least HA (piano) keybed bottom and SW (waterfall) keybed top. Love the piano's and E piano's, love the organs. The Stage 2 synth engine and sample synth is powerful enough for me, so that's why I would not buy a Lead.

My old rig was
Nord Wave
Electro 4d
Electro 5HP

I enjoyed this rig but grew pretty tired of the three board set up... SO I sold em all for my current rig.
Electro 5D61
Stage 2 ex compact

As I'm a pretty regular gigging club musician I don't find i miss my weighted action for live use at all, but for home Piano practice I have a roland FP20 which i rig up to pianoteq 5... it was the cheapest 88 Keyboard with a decent action i could find (MUCH MUCH better than the clunky electro 5HP) & for bigger gigs I sometimes add that to the set up.
Sometimes miss the Wave tho - I just wasn't making the most of it so it had to be sold.
