Everything about Nord keyboards in general; which one to choose, the sound manager, sample editor, and general discussion about the sample and piano libraries.

The Nord Monitors are $599 for the pair on Sweetwater not including brackets: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail ... o-monitors

They are the Audio Pro Addon T14 but without bluetooth & presumably 1/4" inputs added. Not sure if it comes with the same remote. It might have the same amp as amp wattage is almost never accurate. The Addons are rated 50 watts each but the back says 120 watts. You can see the Addon T14's here: https://www.audiopro.com/en/product/addon-t14/#black

Those are $399 on Amazon & can get them in black or white, no Red :roll: : https://www.amazon.com/Audio-Pro-Blueto ... 4GV2S?th=1

Seems to me profit margins must be real high for Nord on these. But red paint is more expensive than other colors....

Here is what the back looks like

I prefer playing with stereo speakers on stage instead of large floor monitor(s). I like to be "in" the sound. Especially with stereo sounds.
I have used the Behringer (yes Behringer, but they're actually really ok!) Eurolive B205D for a while. They're cheap and they do the job! But I would be willing to go for a Nord system if it is better and the pricing is ok..
Nice.

I had been using an older Mackie SRM150 for about 10 years before the PSU finally flaked out on me late last year. I had a lot of love for it. Maybe not the greatest sounding overall but pound-for-pound well worth the $300 or so I paid for it.

My guess is the mic-adapter for the Nord's would be similar to the Mackie, so you'd either need to find room for 2 mic stands, or get a couple of those attachments for your stand as well.

I would buy these monitors, but I own Stage 3 and it is not possible to mount it to the Stage series. On Nord Piano 4 there are 2 screws with holes on the both sides, but they are not on the Stage...That´s pity.

Thank you :)
I used a 142p wich is the same as a 142. The cabinet just differs a bit. I only used the top and bottom shelf from the cabinet though.
Then i removed the small motors to save space and put in a 2-speed conversion kit. Swapped the 15 speaker for a 12.
At first i had a small style styrofoam rotor that i heavily modified but later swapped for a wooden one for sound and ramp time. It sounds killer and i can load it in a car by myself :)

They look nice.
Sound quality in clip is horrible though.
Like an mp3 coded at lowest rate possible.
