New Triple/Single Pedal by Kawai?

Post by superbender »

The new triple/single pedal seems to be from a new partner. As far as I know, the old pedals were made by Studiologic.
The new one looks sturdier and reminds me of my old Kawai pedal that I owned along with a Kawai MP 3. Maybe I can reuse it. :clap:
What do you think about the pedals?

Looking at the shape it seems a Kawai to me as well, but could also be a custom shape built by Studiologic on Nord request

Shape and manufacturer apart, question is whether it is using a pot or still the multi-switches schema of the current Triple pedal (in that case you could not reuse a pot-based continuous pedal)

This (https://www.thomann.de/de/kawai_gfp_3.htm) pedal looks exactly like the triple pedal and this https://www.thomann.de/de/kawai_f_10_h_footswitch.htm like the single.

Yes, could well be they switched to standard pot-based for damper, but we cannot be sure just from the pictures (also the original Triple Pedal had the same case and pedals of a Fatar VFP3, but it was different internally), we'll see :thumbup:

My old pedal is the Kawai F10 H. :thumbup:
Maybe those pedals gives us also a hint that Nord uses this time a keybed of KAWAI, e.g. the RH3!?

The funny thing is that the Stage 4 has two pedal jacks: a sustain jack (for standard sustain pedal, Nord Sustain Pedal 2 or old Nord Triple Pedal) and a special Nord Triple Pedal 2 jack. So I'm very curious why the new Nord Sustain Pedal 2 isn't compatible with the NS3.

If NSP2 uses the same connector as the original NTP, maybe it is already compatible also with NS3 (or could become with a future OS update ?)

I doubt the keybed of NS4 is a Kawai, I believe it is still Fatar.

Have a look at the photo, the new connecter is a DIN plug, similar to the pedals mentioned before.

Thanks, I had't seen the picture yet, now it looks clearly it is for the Kawai GFP-3 as superbender said...

There is the new NTP2 connection - but you still have the sustain jack next to it. And the new connection seems to be only for NTP2 -- not the NSP2. That's how I understood it.

Somewhere on nordkeyboards.com I read that the NSP2 would only be compatible with the NS4. An OS update for NS3 would be great, though.
