My current setup is pictured below, including the Nord Stage 76, Nord Wave and original Nord Modular (rack).

oh my god !
where is it ?

LOL!

:D

I live in the Pacific Northwest of the USA (about 30 miles north of Seattle in Washington State if you know where that is).

I've been assembling my studio since the mid 80's.

I just recently released my second professional album called Shadow. (available from the link in my sig below)

amazing !
so, what about Solaris ?

Its coming soon. I used the prototype on my album Shadow. The Nord Stage got used quite a lot as well! :)

Here are a few more photos:

WOW! Nice collection!
That Pro One looks amazing!

Thanks!

The pro-One mod was a lot of work but well worth it - I documented it all here: http://carbon111.com/pro1.html

Hi,
really impressive setup!! Though I am a bit surprised that you have also a OASYS right? I've seen it once at a concert of Herbie Hancock and I liked the sounds. Though it seems to be a all-in-one-machine though at a high price tag ;-)
So in your opinion, how compare the E-Piano sounds and the Organs to the Nord Stage/Electro ones in you opinion?? Would be very interested about your opinion!!

Great documentation! I didn't know you could still get those bushings at all!

The Oasys is my only sampler/rompler, plus it has all those sweet synth engines in it like the Mod-7, STR-1, AL-1, MS-20EX, etc...
Some of its E-pianos are great but it just dosen't have the immediacy of the Stage, plus I've got a soft spot for Nord. ;)

The Organ model in the Stage is maybe just a tiny bit better than the Oasys but the amp sim and leslie sim are better in the Oasys.

Sometimes if I just want to compose, the Nord Stage is the only keyboard that gets turned on. :)
