From the NORD website, in the Sound section, select an old legacy board e.g. the Electro 4, you will then have access to v5 of piano sounds.

Re: Differences between V6 and V5 piano samples
On a related note, has anyone compared the older White Grand (over 240MB in size) with the current one? It's a pretty large decrease in size, I am curious what is missing... Same with the CP80Amped.

I hope the decrease in size is only due to a better data compression.

I don't think the data compression has changed at all over the years. I am wondering if a few notes (or perhaps a velocity layer) may be removed.

Re: Differences between V6 and V5 piano samples
Great tip. I reverted to v5 of Grand Imperial on my NS4 because I really prefer the long release option you can't get with v6.ElectroStrat wrote: 10 Feb 2026, 08:59 From the NORD website, in the Sound section, select an old legacy board e.g. the Electro 4, you will then have access to v5 of piano sounds.
