It might have to do something with this.
I too think that this is a promising hint, because on SAMPLETEKK Homepage a cooperation with NORDKEYBOARDS is mentioned.
Anywhere in subpages of SAMPLETEKK I read, that the samples of WHITE GRAND are taken from an ESTONIA grandpiano.
At any rate, the demos are sounding very promising.

Where did you read about? Which subpage of SAMPLETEKK? I can't find any information that was sampled ESTONIA grand piano. Could you confirm that, please?

The latest video of the Nord Grand has an intriguing chyron toward the beginning.
What piano manufacturer is particularly known for white pianos?
Per from SampleTekk here. Just to straighten things out: The White Grand is a old Malmsjo grand!

Hi Pete from Sampletekk - thanks for clearing this up. Malmsjo pianos have a lovely sound and feel, and I'm liking how you've captured that in your demo.
I note that you did not deny that the forthcoming Nord White Grand is based on your sterling efforts

Maybe we should ask Nostradamus, a/k/a leo286, who posted this in January 2017:

The White Grand, the New York Grand, the Diamond Grand, the Princess Grand, the Golden Grand I, the Golden Grand II, the Virtual Grand 4D, the Austrian Grand and then the Blu Grand which is suitable for Jazz.

Chyron? What is that, a mythical beast from Greek mythology?
White Grand - maybe we'll get a top-notch simulation of Liberace's board.

Thank you for explanation. I hope that "White grand" from nord also will be old Malmsjo grand.
I have another different question to you. Do you know something about announced almost 4 years ago "Grand Lady D" XL by nord? Was really made? Something go wrong with XL sample? Why still nothing?
