Nord Triple Pedal

[Swampfox]

I finally broke down and replaced the sustain pedal to the triple pedal. Although the triple pedal is way overpriced, It's a welcome addition to the play-ability of NS3 as a piano. I highly recommend that Piano-centric players look for a used or open box TP, it's in a completely different league than the pedal that comes with the instrument.

Well, it is certainly better than the pedal that comes with the NS3 compact.. , but then again i am not short of sustain pedals...

a question.. while i can appreciate its value for piano playing, what would push me over the edge would be if the sostenuto pedal also worked on the synth part?..

thanks

If your NS3 compact came with a pedal, it will probably not have been from Nord. Or it was a give-away - it's usually not been part of the package for the Compact.

Concerning sostenuto: It does apply to the synth engine as long as sustain is enabled. It doesn't apply to the organ engine, though - even with sustain enabled. Checked it out just a moment ago with my NS3C and latest OS.

sorry for the poor humor attempt..the NS3C didn't come with a pedal..

thanks for the info tho, the use on the synth is a sweet extra so i suspect a triple pedal is in my future.

HI, I have the same problem with the sostenuto in triple pedal, organ section does not hold the tone, while synth yes. What to set in system? I cannot belive that the NS3 dos not enable this function.
Thank you very much

As already answered before by FZiegler in this same thread, NS3 Organ section (and I guess no other Organ section on any Nord model) does not support Sostenuto/Latch , only Sustain.
