Unfortunately, no, jazzfer ! On a Nord Stage 2 SW73, there are no more than 50 mm free between the left wooden side and the (wooden too ;-)) joystick :-(
I see what you're saying.
In all fairness, I don't think this product is intended for the Stage series, just the Electro.
A different model could be developed that had the pitch bender and mod wheel on it, and the whole unit covered up the existing Nord pitch and mod contollers.

From my narrow perspective, I'm just waiting to purchase one of these for my Electro.

Only 100 mm are available on the right :-(

Anyway, one "mechanical" drawbar set for 2 manuals is unusable for me! I need 2, otherwise I prefer Nord's solution, where you can check the actual (memorised) registrations :-)

Congratulations for your nice design/development, however :-)

I like the form factor very much.. We need to come up with a way to adapt it to the stage compact!

One thing as well... Make sure the colour scheme matches the model it's intended for. I'm not too crazy about having 3 different shades of red...

Add Drawbars to my Nord?

Post by organut »

With the Stage 2 I do not really need a drawbars controller since individual drawbars can be controlled with the wheel. A very, very cool feature! It makes a separate controller nearly completely redundant.

Good idea jazzfer :-) To avoid bending or breaking drawbars when in "full out" position, a protective tablet could be added underneath...
