Grands, Uprights, Electric Pianos, Digital Pianos, Clavinet and Harpsichord sounds are all catered for at incredible quality. With Nord's advanced sound library and the new doubled 2Gb memory capacity you can swap and change sound from the exclusive Nord Piano Library to create your perfect piano collection.

    The polyphony has also been increased on the Stage 3 88 to 120 notes. This is an increase from between 40-60 voices on the previous Nord Stage 2 EX88 model effectively doubling the possible amount of simultaneous notes.

    Make use of the optional Nord Triple Pedal to add even more depth and realism to your piano playing experience. The pedal features a unique dynamic sustain pedal that enables the use of half-pedaling and "release and catch" techniques and also Sustenuto and Soft Pedals. The Nord Triple Pedal also recreates the mechanical sounds of lifting and releasing the damper mechanism, producing the characteristic thomp and sizzle sounds. The Pedal Noise feature responds dynamically to the force/momentum used when pressing or releasing the sustain pedal on the Nord Triple Pedal.

    World Class Organ Section

    The Nord Stage 3 features the latest award-winning C2D Organ simulations of B3 Tonewheel and Vintage Transistor Organs plus two brand new Principal Pipe Organs. Two different Organ models can be used simultaneously and the updated vintage 122 Rotary Speaker simulation is also available for each slot independently.

    B3 Tone-wheel Organ

    The extremely authentic B3 Tone-Wheel simulation offers up four different tone wheel settings, ranging from factory new clean to leaky old vintage. The Stage 3 88 model uses a button system for moving drawbars up and down whilst the smaller Stage 3 Compact features physical drawbar control. LED lights indicate drawbar position for clear and easy viewing especially on dark stages.

    Vintage Rotary Speaker

    Incredible vintage 122 Rotary Speaker simulation adds an essential character to a live organ performance and features Slow, Fast and Stop mode as well as a Drive control. The 122 Rotary Speaker simulation is available on each slot and can also be used with the Piano or Synth section

    Classic Transistor Organs

    The Organ section also features impeccable simulations of the classic 1960's Transistor Organs, Vox Continental and Farfisa Compact with all the classic settings.

    Principal Pipe Organs

    The Organ section contains two different new Principal Pipe Organ models. These models faithfully emulate two variations of a Principal pipe section - the sets of metal pipes that commonly make up the backbone of a pipe or church organ.
