To me maybe the most important thing remains to be seen: keyboard action. IMO this has been the weakest part of Stage history. In fact I first bought NS3 76 but soon traded it to compact because 76’s HP keyboard was horrible. After few days of playing it started make noises for example. Another weak link has been their triple pedal. I have had many of them and still have 2 and all of them need service after normal usage.

I certainly hope that Clavia has managed to improve the build quality of the hardware.

Yes! That wasn't what I expected at all.

How many locks were on that top door???

Here is a comparison between the NS3 and the NS4 sections (there is no image for NS4 program section, so I couldn't compare those) :D :D

Tip: image is large and HQ, so you can open it in new tab and zoom in for detailed comparison ;)

Gotta admit looking at this comparison, having the ability of having three synths and fx no longer global is honestly sick.

Is there any news on the new collection of piano samples?
“new enhanced collection of Grands, Uprights and Electric Pianos”
Is it really new? Or only newer than NS3?
Some music I play keys on Apple and Spotify

It seems like there is no longer a SONG MODE in the NS4, right?
