COMPARISON NORD WAVE2 AND NORD STAGE 4
HELLO EVERYONE AND BEST WISHES FOR THIS NEW YEAR.
So, I looked a bit on the net as well as on the Nord site to try to really compare the differences that there may be between the Nord Wave2 and the synth part of the Nordstage4.
You wonder why? I'll explain to you a good month ago I bought a nord electro 6d for my concerts and I'm really happy with it and I ask myself the following question is it worth the cost to buy a nordstage 4 in 73 notes or to keep my electro 6d and complete it with a nord wave2? I understood that on the wave2 there is an additional layer but perhaps other elements that I can't see.
Thanks in advance to those who could give me a little help on the subject.
Very cordially to you Eric.

Re: COMPARISON NORD WAVE2 AND NORD STAGE 4
What kind of material are you playing? I've often said that the Electro is nothing more than a gateway drug for the Stage.
When players go to two keyboards, it's either to get more sounds -- or to get separately weighted actions. I'm in the latter camp -- my NS4C makes all the sounds (piano, organ, synth, samples, etc.) but I use a NP5 76 as a weighted controller.
Having a single board produce all the sounds makes programming and performing just that much easier for me.

I think I have gear issues ....

Re: COMPARISON NORD WAVE2 AND NORD STAGE 4
To answer your question, in fact I find that the electro 6 also has good piano, great organ sounds as well as synth samples.
Of course you are right, a single keyboard with everything in it is super practical, although in concert two keyboards are also great because for certain songs you can quickly navigate with its already planned sounds as well.
In fact I wanted to know if the Nord Wave2 is more powerful and has more things than the synth part of the Nord Stage4
