Hopefully that fixed the issue. Thank you for letting me know.

Those pics are from several years ago. At the time that's what I had. I replaced the Electro 3HP with a Stage 2EX in late 2016. The Electro 4 had also be replaced by an Electro 6D 73 some time back.

The tiers have held up just fine.

Nice setup and the power of the Wave 2 is great: Small, 4 sample ranges (I need that for some songs). The only issue is the B3 sim is only in the Stage, I like to play B3 on top and Piano on the bottom. So I need to do some midi-ing.
The great thing is that I can use my left hand to play with the Drawbars, drive and Leslie speed and those controls are close by!

I tried a Stage 3 + Lead A1 combo, but ultimately swapped the Lead A1 for an MacBook Air M1. Or rather an audio interface, since I was already carrying a laptop for NSM. This allows me to be more interactive with the drums on stage (side chaining).

+50 years of gigging and ownership of many keyboards, over the time period, brought me to NORD in late 2015. I've had my entire collection of 46 keyboards rehomed and replaced by my "Red Rig," during the past 3 years. Any and every musically useful sound that I am required or want to make is performed by my beloved NORDS, including bleeps, bloops and farts! Whether playing live, recording or playing at home, my NORDs deliver the goods, reliably and without problems. I have arrived at my dream rig, consisting of C2 and C2D organs, a pair of Electro 4D 61 SWs, a pair of Waves Mk.1 and a Lead 3. Whatever the gig and musical genre, my NORDs can cover it.
