(1) Which piano do you prefer? ==> Just answer the poll question
(2) Which demo do you think was recorded using which keyboard or patch ==> for that I created the small survey where you can choose which sample you think uses which sample/keyboard in order to see if people are more or less unanimous about which sound comes from which keyboard or Nord sample.

Sorry for the confusion!

Sorry!! Now I know what was the problem. I couldn't see everything on my iPhone. That's what caused my confusion.

OT:
But it's a difficult one. I'm sure I can hear the diff between the 3 brands. But I'm not sure on the Nord piano's (which one is which). Now I'm really curious for the results!!

And please, please don't let demo nr. 2 be a Nord!!! Please!!!

Hum... Rhodes... Don't waste your time.
Nord ones are definitely the best! Yesterday I was live with my NE3, playing some gigs with crappy speakers; tonight I played same gigs with motifXF at home. Very good headphones, atmosphere, no hurting noises... After ten minutes my NE3 was out of the case, again on the stand. Can't compare them, especially if you play a lot with dynamics.

@ozio01: I hear you. But still a comparison "blind" might be nice, in particular for people who have not (had) the chance of listening to many other Rhodes Patches. And furthermore there are some good new models such as the SV-1, Kronos, etc. out there.
Anyway, will depend on people's contributions and interest. We shall see!

mmmm.. the 2nd and 3rd is not nord pianos ... Maybe.. :)

Hi Petrounic,
I think some people are expecting it to be a trick question ;)
I wouldn't do that.
I think it's safe to say that 2 & 3 are NOT Nord pianos.
Actually #2 is this piano:


I'm thinking of announcing the demo answers in couple of weeks.
Anyone that has taken the survey and wants the answers before then, feel free to PM me.

So far no one has gotten it completely right, and someone seems to be mad at that new Bright Grand, and favors the Motif "Power Grand" ...hmmm, I wonder who that is?

Cheers, Hanon

Someone is loving piano nr 2 and piano nr 3..................

already voted... I'll wait patiently to see if my vote is the one I use with differnt sample size... if not, mmmnnn, will think about it....

Great idea and well done, Hanon_CTS. I have no idea which piano is which, but I like piano 1 best and pianos 4 and 5 almost as much. It seems that most people around here agree concerning this.

Fun test. Although I cast my vote I have to agree that between 1 & 4 (and perhaps 5) I find the choice to be difficult, one day and context might make me prefer another sound than another day and context. But that's why I have a Nord anyway :)
