Nord Piano Monitors V2 Auto Standby

Post by Scouse Samurai »

Hi folks, just looking into the piano monitors v2 at the mo.

How does the auto standby feature work? Tried to find a manual online but struggling. Is it as good as it sounds - the monitors power on and off when you power your keyboard on and off? Is it exclusive to the Nord Piano series or can Stage 3 do it too?

Cheers

Pretty sure it works like most auto standby speakers by sensing a signal on the audio input. If there is no signal for a while the unit powers down and switches into the standby state. There will also be a slight delay when you first start playing before the unit powers back on (generally 1-2 seconds). The sense circuit is on the audio input and will work with any keyboard.

Great thanks! Hadn't come across that feature explicitly given a switch on the monitors before so wanted to check, thanks! :)
