Hi everyone

I was wondering if any of you can help me out with the following?

I am in the process of designing a composer desk, and I need it to be compatible with many different piano's and keyboards.

I am looking for the exact measurements of certain dimensions of the Nord Grand; see image attached.

From the official specs I already know the overall dimensions:

Width 1286 mm
Height 168 mm
Depth 387 mm

So I am looking for more specific dimensions according to the photo attached.

Cheers!

Ballpark measurements

A: 160 mm
B: 99 mm
C: 376 mm
D: 164 mm
E: 21 mm
F: no protractor!
G: 15 mm
H: 70 mm
J: 8 mm

Also keep in mind, that the instrument has rubber feet on the bottom, which means it is taller than length A in your image.

Edit: Also the music stand slots in the back side. And all connections need some space even with angled connectors. Just pointing this out in case you never thought of it.

Thank you! That gives me something to start from.

Good points, thanks for bringing it up!

I drew some other keyboards and indeed the feet always add (substantially) to the overall height.
And a welcome reminder indeed to have full access to the connections.
Great remark also regarding the music stand slots.

If anyone can provide these additional measurements, that would be great:

- Feet height
- music stand slots: how much they add to the depth, and perhaps also where exactly they are located.

I found some images that I can work from (see attached) so I believe I'm set for the most part now.

Angle "F" seems to be 48 degrees

What I still need to know:

- the height of the feet, their diameter, and how wide they are set apart;
- and the depth that the music stand mounts add, and to be sure perhaps also how wide their center is set from each other, and their individual width.

From some of the photo's in the linked thread below, I could distill that the bottom supports are located about 230 mm from the sides;

Their diameter is prabably 25~30 mm at its widest, and I estimate they measure 15 mm high.

So I'm set here - thanks to all the contributors!
