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

From the NORD website, in the Sound section, select an old legacy board e.g. the Electro 4, you will then have access to v5 of piano sounds.

On a related note, has anyone compared the older White Grand (over 240MB in size) with the current one? It's a pretty large decrease in size, I am curious what is missing... Same with the CP80Amped.

I hope the decrease in size is only due to a better data compression.

I don't think the data compression has changed at all over the years. I am wondering if a few notes (or perhaps a velocity layer) may be removed.
