I have a very strange problem with my nord piano 5-73

When I play the low C_key the Lowest F key also sounds. The F-key has max velocity and the C-Key has a normal velocity curve.
I connected the piano with midi and there where no problems.
I seems like the keybed has some kind of error.
While holding the low F-key the C-Key sounds normal.

I will contact music store Germay for a service call.

Usually, when these kinds of problems are reported, it turns out to be a loose cable connector between keybed and main logic board. If you're comfortable opening up the unit, it may be a quick fix.

Maybe it's easy to fix but if I were you I wouldn't do that : your unit is brand new, it would be a pity to lose your warranty.
You should call your retailer and ask for a replacement / reparation.

I'm going to return it to musicstore.

Update:
I return my Nord Piano 5 for repair to MusicStore Koln at the 2e of september.
At this moment it is still in repair and at MusicStore they don't know how long its going to take.
I also send a email to Nord without any response.
I'm very dissapointed, at this moment I have to improvise whit my old stuff, while the gigs are rising.
This is not what I expected from Nord.

I hope you will get it back soon. Curious what they will find.

I am thinking of buying a Nord 5 but the forum seems to be loaded with a lot of problems with this keyboard. I feel with a keyboard of this cost it should not have all these problems... Rethinking my purchase...

I'm right there with you, I don't know of any other keyboards that have my requirements though. I want something where I can play 2 piano sounds and 2 sample/synth sounds at once. 73 Keys and option to load own sounds.

Im very worried about the reported quality issues as you are.

Update
Still no update of the repair

Which is a bit bizarre for a brand that's in the pro market.
