Really a terrible design choice for a pedal of this price and (supposed) quality.
All the best and most expensive pedals have detachable cables...except of course the Yamaha FC7, but that doesn't count because it's undestructible, unbreakable and built by aliens on some unknown planet where time and space work differently.

On a side note, what's that Nord FS1 double foot switch?!?

There's also another red thing at the far right of the picture that I can't identify, behind the Triple Pedal 2. Maybe it's the new Nord Pedal Keys 25?

Thomann has them listed now, for € 199,- ... available within the next 4-5 months

Saw that too - 6-7 months between announcement and projected availability is quite some time for „just“ a pedal …

And still no news at all about the FS1.
Those pedals must be of really amazing quality if they take so long to produce!

Yeah, it's not even shown on Nord's web page (if I checked correctly), just on one of the pictures in that thread here

Why should I buy such an overpriced pedal if I can get an "undestroyable" Yamaha FC-7 for less than half the price?
Many bucks just to have the "Nord Look"

And at that price, the non-detachable cable is a deal breaker for me.

To me it would come down to weight. The FC-7 is a very robust pedal. It's also heavy and bulky. If these new pedals hold up well and are lighter, I would certainly consider one of them.

I wouldn't know which though. I understand the 30-degree pedal would appeal to traditional organ players, and I really only use the pedal for those rare occasions I play organ styles. I'm use to the shorter throw however, so the 15 might suit me better.
