Nord STAGE 3 Compact

In its fifth generation, the excellent Nord Stage piano is once again one of the best that demanding keyboard players can take on stage or into the studio. High sonic flexibility is ensured by 3 sections - Piano, Organ and Synth, which can be used simultaneously. In addition, each section has two independent slots that allow the simultaneous use of two pianos, two organs and two synthesizers + effects.

New features of the Nord Stage 3 models include a pair of OLED displays for clearer operation, double the memory for the Nord Piano Library (2 GB) and polyphony (120 voices), the award-winning Nord Lead A1 Synth Engine with sample playback, the Nord C2D Organ Engine and a clearer effects section.

The Nord Stage 3 Compact features a semi-weighted, straight-edged keyboard that will be especially appreciated by lovers of fast organ solos and synth licks. It is, of course, also suitable for piano sounds and is in the E-E range.

The Nord Stage 3 again takes the possibilities in the field of live keyboard playing a stage further.
