So what does that mean? Weren't 20 hours or so supposed to be left?

Organ split (for upper and lower manuals) requires two sets of drawbar settings, that certainly makes sense. Splitting/layering two piano sounds may not be the most common thing to do, but it can certainly be useful, whether to split two different sounds (a clav and a rhodes for example), or detune a couple of acoustic piano layers, or to layer two different sounds from that section (I remember some popular layers of FM EP + some other kind of piano sound).

Depends when you looked at it. 16-ish hours at the moment. Countdown clock is at https://www.nordstage4.com/

Still shows 16 hours from my end-

clock still showing 'aN' for me, tested with Safari and Chrome

Expected deadline is '2023/02/16 10:00' Europe/Stockholm timezone.

Correct.

.... as long as they don't change the Piano sample format .... which is possible in general but not very likely

I was just looking at the Stage 2 downloads from Nord's website, and the White Grand is available for it. So it seems Nord supports older models for quite some time with newer samples. That's basically what I'm hoping for with my NS3.

I’m seeing An too - wonder what it means??

Any ideas what the solo button is for?
