We’ll cover the sound engines and effects in detail in the Sound section of this review. These include the Organ, Piano, Synth, and Effects sections, as well as an External section. Everything is right above the keyboard and is separated into specific sections. If you’ve ever been on stage playing a synth solo that just fails to slice through the mix, you’ll appreciate being able to add some drive or open the filter at will. Need to turn down the reverb intensity? There’s a knob for that as well.īasically, if you need to do something on the Nord Stage 3, chances are you’ll be able to do it with a simple turn of a knob or press of a button.
If you need to tweak your delay times, there’s a knob for that. Having things laid out, like on the Stage 3, is extremely helpful. Personally, I’d say stage performers will love this high degree of control.
On the other hand, someone who just wants solid sounds out of the box might find the cluttered controls somewhat scary. If you’re unfamiliar with Nord keyboards, you should know that they provide a lot of control.Įverything from their early Nord Lead synthesizers to modern Nord Pianos have front panels with a ton of knobs and buttons.ĭepending on your experience with keyboards, this will either be a liberating experience or an extremely daunting one.įor people who are very particular about their sounds, having every specific parameter available at their fingertips is an amazing scenario. While I can’t attest to its durability, an acquaintance of mine’s Stage 2 has survived multiple falls and collisions throughout the years and still functions like new (barring a few dents and scratches). The body features smooth metal all round and feels premium. The Stage 3 shares the same design ethos and is easy to recognize, even from afar. Nord instruments share the same distinct look, with a striking, bright red livery and solid construction that is Clavia’s signature.
