  • Pretty good
Style: 88-Key Fully Weighted Keybed
One of the few things I don't regret buying in life. I bought this to play synth at church, and piano at home. This replaced my baby grand at home, now I can peacefully play when everyone is sleeping. I have to say I bought this keyboard (over a year ago) when it was $4,700, now its $5,300 if not more already. So good value retention fyi. When comparing to other keyboards out there, why does this keyboard sit at the top in certain areas? This keyboard is focused mostly on live performances, it focuses on providing a medium to store sounds, and be able to switch to different sounds or modify current sounds. The beauty of this keyboard is that all of these actions can be done one the fly (that is why you see so many buttons on this thing). Obviously you will need to organize your sounds before doing something that crazy, preparation is needed to pull off something like that. Need a little more reverb? you are one dial away. Need to modulate without changing your chords? hold transpose and turn dial (one hand). need to switch to second part of song? one button to your stored sound. need to decrease cutoff frequency so that you could make the synth mellow? one dial. The list goes on. Pair this keyboard up with some high quality studio monitors at home (in my opinion: Yamaha HS7's or HS8's, don't get HS5's paired with a HS8S sub, there is a frequency drop out and it sounds bad), this will make your baby grand piano at home sound like absolute trash (I'm sorry, but that's just reality) This keyboard does not have an option to record or loop, which is ok I guess (just need more stuff to make that happen). The stage 3 can be used as a midi controller or standalone. My take is that the stage 3 has enough sound samples for a standalone setup. If you want to do anything absolutely crazy, a midi-interface-laptop setup is the way to go. Then again, you could just buy a MIDI keyboard and the total hardware will cost you 10 times less, not the software though LOL. The feel of these keys are like an in-between of an organ-piano-synth. If you want more piano-mechanical-feeling keys, go for the nord piano 5. To be honest, a nord piano 5 would have met my needs just fine. The organ you have to know how to use to make it sound good, I left that section untouched for about a year before making any good use of it. A lot of synth effects I didn't really make use of (at least just yet) in our more-conservative church (we don't have drums). I did get into a car accident with this piano, and it did get a little beat up (few broken but still functioning keys). Guys, get good cases, the gator g-tour 88 slim is perfect for this. The other gator 88 slim is good too. (76 slims are never in stock, I think they fit the 88 stage 3) The stand I use is the official $300 one, very nice for portability, it fits into my case with the piano. The stand is at an awkward height, but ask anyone who has an angle grinder to make it the right height for you (take off rubber feet, cut, put them back on). That stand you will never regret for portability and clean-looking. it is a bit pricey, and it does take an additional 60sec to set up than typical stands. This keyboard is pretty heavy (42lb), plus my tour case (54lb) and stand (4lb?). So it is 100lb total and it is a 2 person job to get up a long flight of stairs. Otherwise it is ok to carry on flat ground with wheels. I do have to take down a back seat to get it to fit into my small sedan. Don't get me wrong this keyboard is the best in terms of sound, BUT, in church (or event), this keyboard will sound as good as your audio setup or audio engineer (sadly, whichever is worse). Sometimes you are trying to get a certain sound on your monitors at home and then the audio engineer goes and throws an eq and an effect on you when you are live. Make sure you have a premium gasket between your speakers and your keyboard (aka the audio engineer), else there is no use of having it in the first place. And finally, if you do not have time to spend to play around, experiment, and get the sound you want. you will be only paying for 5% of the keyboard. Get ready to spend a LOT of time time figuring this thing out, the benefit is insane though. ... show more

  • GREAT keyboard. I upgraded from the Nord Stage 1 ...
Style: 88-Key Fully Weighted Keybed
GREAT keyboard. I upgraded from the Nord Stage 1 I bought 10 years ago. This is almost the same keyboard, but the keys feel better and the sounds are higher quality, I love Nords because all the controls are super accessible; I improvise with my tone a lot, and it helps that anything I want to change is on a button or a dial on the front, no navigating through menus or clicking a button 10 times to get what you want. Really excellent organ and electric piano sounds. The acoustic piano sound is the best I've heard from an onboard keyboard (Some Kontakt plugins can still beat it). I bought the HX3 DBC Drawbar Controller and affixed it near the left edge of the keyboard using velcro strips, so I can have a nice physical drawbar feel. I was almost considering buying the new electro instead because of its physical drawbars, but the stage 3 with the HX3 works great and I'm glad I made the choice I did. The synth section leaves something to be desired -- mostly too many long list- and menu-oriented controls, it's not really amenable to any kind of real-time tone design, and I still find it pretty hard to navigate to what I want. It's fine if you know that on this song you want such-and-such piano and then you want to switch to this predetermined synth sound; what I have trouble with is, as I'm playing I've got some particular organ that I have tweaked my way into over the course of the song, and I want, for example, a lead synth in my right hand while keeping the organ patch on my left. It is *doable* to set a split point on the fly (which is pretty impressive), maybe about 4 button clicks away, but then finding the right lead synth from the synth section, instead of stored in a "main patch" (which would change the whole configuration, wiping out my organ) is hard enough that I can't really attempt anything like that. Anyway, in the studio the synth section is fine, I've designed some pretty cool patches. Also the pitch bend knob is the best in the business, I can't stand those standard wheel knobs anymore -- you can actually get some decent sounding expression and vibrato out of this one. So yeah, Nord is pwning the keyboard market right now, and they deserve it. ... show more

  • Great keyboard for a Church worship team.

The ordering was easy and arrived when predicted. It was easy to install and there were plenty of tutorials on YouTube to assist with setup. I recommend this product for any church looking for a new and versitile keyboard for their worship team.

  • Many little things add up to a very big upgrade
Style: 88-Key Fully Weighted Keybed
I upgraded from a stage 2 ex, and before that I had an original Nord electro for 13 years that I played the heck out of. On the 2EX I had the HP action and on the 3 I got the HA88. I definitely like the HA action a lot more, but the weight is kind of a drag. Thankfully I'm not moving it far distances. To be clear, I did not purchase from this seller. I might have had a better experience if I had, but that's neither here nor there. Things I love that aren't commonly mentioned: 1. The synth engine is a hundred times better than the one in the stage 2/2 EX from the Nord wave. 2. The Leslie close setting on the B3 is the sound in my head. I never fully loved the electro or 2ex organ. 3. The seamless transitions and OLED screen are a huge upgrade 4. The new filter options on the delay are great. Supposedly "analog mode" changes the character of the delay sound repeats, but it's pretty hard to hear the difference. 5. Stereo drive. No more mono only drive 6. Separate reverb and compression on slot A and B. However, if you use all four outputs things get complicated, because only one output pair can have reverb and compression. Still sorting this one out, it's one of my only gripes. 7. The extra filter on the amp section: very useful! 8. I was initially bummed at losing the latch feature from the 2, as I used it sometimes. However, with the triple pedal it still works on both the piano and synth section. Good enough. 9. The extra zones and the new zone interface is awesome, but it definitely adds some complexity that requires more thought. I'm not as quick as I was with the new system yet. 10. I LOVE the master clock keyboard sync feature so much. Firmware 2.20 has a bug with it that they've said they'll fix, but still, this feature plus the extra waveforms on the lfo makes a lot of modern synth sounds possible 11. Superwave. Ahhh this is worth the upgrade alone! Sounds so good. Also, the unison on the regular waveforms sounds better. 12. The Moog filter. So fat, love it. Love filter drive too 13. Double memory is amazing for all the huge piano sounds. The newer piano sounds are definitely a step up. Still can't touch something like Ivory, but it's really good. 14. Song mode is great, though I like seeing the little preview of what's loaded in the patch view and song mode does away with this. 15. To my surprise, I've actually used the pipe organs a few times as a layer. Nice to have, and not use a synth engine for. 16. Gradual splits is nice as well. Again, adds complexity to keyboard zones, but it's great that it's there. 17. The external section is still great, though I'm a little sad it lost the rotary encoder. 18. The external input routes through outs 1&2, which means I can use the external section to drive an iPad instrument and easily route it back through the same output. This is amazing. 19. The various view and search options for synth presets speeds up workflow a ton. 20. So many morphable parameters! Again, this adds complexity but with it comes amazing power. Compressor is not morphable sadly. 21. Pitch bend range can be adjusted, not stuck at -/+2 anymore. All in all, an incredible update that I couldn't be much happier about. Sure, there's some small things I wish for, but it really does nearly everything I need with the Hallmark Nord simplicity and minimalism that I absolutely love. It's expensive, but with it if you need many of the things in the list above. ... show more

  • INFINITE SOUNDS, NOISY KEYBED
Style: 88-Key Fully Weighted Keybed
While the Nord Stage 3 is a treasure chest of keyboard sounds, the keys make a lot of distracting noise. The black keys are the worse offenders, making a very noticeable clacking sound, especially in the lower half of the keyboard. Nord has a lot of nerve charging almost $5,000 for a keybed of this poor quality. I tend to play at louder volumes than I would like, just to drown out these noisy keys. I also have a Nord Piano 2 from a few years back and the key action is much quieter. Have to assume they've been unable to maintain build quality as they manufacture more units. Just had to get this off my chest - take it for what it's worth. ... show more
