#Andertons #KeyboardShootout #NordPiano
I used to fix audio equipment and I fixed plenty of keyboards. Korgs and Rolands came in quite often. They were laid out ok but they had broken key weights. They used a plastic piece with lead at one end and they eventually deteriorated and broke.Yamahas came in too but they had steel weights and I never had to replace one. The Yamahas were older pianos and I usually had to clean the key contacts because they were played for a decade or so. I only repaired one Nord for a broken jack from an accident. The action wasn’t as good as the Yamaha but I have never seen a cleaner pcb layout in a keyboard. Just a well designed and well made product.
Big Bad Wolf except, the Nords have their failures too.
I’ve had 4 Nords since the first Stage and every single one broke. The last one was irreparable damage to the motherboard. No reason. I barely gigged them! I will never go Nord again sadly
LOL Nord keys are a joke
@@ivnsports518 I've played the crap out of an Electro 3 for 10 years and it has never failed. It is the reason I bought the 6D.
I’m just here to make sweeping remarks about how high end equipment sounds through iPhone speakers. Don’t mind me.
😂 💪🎹🎶🚀
Jack you're an absolute gem of a player and demonstrator! Keep up the great work!
Great playing and reviews, thanks
Oh my dayzzzz!! How good is Jack? That last tune 😱😱🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾 Thanks Jack, please keep that overhead camera on your fingers the minute you start playing...my whole playing style has been upgraded since I started watching your videos, no kidding 🤣🤣
This is just brilliant and so so helpful, thanks for making this
Excellent comparison!
Thank you so much for this! Definitely helps my decisions towards the Nord with the organ sounds! Wish there were places to test out Nords!
Very good comparison!
Great review! I got the YC73, and I'm really happy with it. The feel of the keyboard, and the build quality in general is very good. Also, since you did this review, the version 1.20 software update took the YC73's organ sounds to a new level. They sound great, and a whole range of modification possibilities have been added. The YC73 can now give you an accurate vintage B-3/Leslie sound, but it can also take you where no real B-3 has ever gone before. Lots of new possibilities with various types of distortions, and feedback. It's the B-3 for 2022.
Lee, I stand corrected re: my YC73 comment. I got my videos mixed up, lol. I'm so sorry.
Great demo!
I love the UA-cam sound algorithms it's so great to go to a shop and hear what they REALLY sound like. It's an amazing surprise even through high-end speakers use for youtube
15:32 THE LEE'CK :D
Nice playing on nice keys! keep that smoooooth silky playing up! really nice! :)
Thanks Jack. Nice demo/review. Sounded though that the Korg was at a volume disadvantage.
That was a very useful like for like comparison. Thanks.
Captain's lick on the organ :D Nice touch! :D
wow sir you are an absolute beast on those organs!! the attack could not keep up with your fingers!!! really enjoyed this demo!
I only come here for Jacks silky playing....
The guilt finally got to me - Jack's supposed to be selling us stuff, after all - so I bought three Nords, a Korg, two Yamahas and Moog for good measure. Now I can enjoy the silk, totally guilt-free
I came.
Great review as always. I'd love it if you'd review the StudioLogic SL88 and Native Instruments S88 MKII. They're keyboard controllers, but people rave about the action, and I'd be so curious to hear how you compare them to your favorite digital pianos.
Maybe you already know this...but in case, not... the 88 Studio has Fatar TP100/LR at $500. The 88 Grand has the Fatar TP40Wood at $900. The Grand feels more like a "real" piano. Quite noticeable. Whether you prefer that, is a personal choice. For example, organs, synths, Rhodes...I think many would prefer a semi-weighted keybed. Combined with a Studiologic MixFace...either SL88 is a lot of value, no doubt.
This is actually brilliant shootout.
Very seldom do we get a straight A/B/C comparison with 'Fairly' like for like sounds.
It does help, of course to be a keys beast like Jack... Great job!
Love what you’re doing Jack,
I’d love to see more videos from you about playing techniques you’ve learned from being a solo artist. Like how you’ve gotten so Amazingly proficient at soloing with all those 16th note runs. Or maybe demoing a keys rig and how you use it like you did on the videos on James Arthur’s stage( ie if you had a Nord electro and a sub 37 in your rig how would you use them to complement one another in a live band)
Thanks mate!!
Thank you so much, wow, amazing, I loved your playing, and your comments about each keyboard, I have to say I'm a little bias
towards the Nord, because I've owned an Elecrtro 2, but I love the Yamaha YC73, but the Hammond/Jazz organ sounds and touch have to go to the Korg, wow, so cool, thank you for an amazing video, I loved it, well done :-)
I’m sorry Jack I can’t watch one of your videos without gushing. Gorgeous, charismatic, funny and ridiculously talented. That first tune brought tears to my eyes ❤
Hell yeah, the Yamaha can do a widdly woo! That’s important to me! Great as always Jack!!
The Yamaha every time for me. Additional features like mod and pitch levers set it apart as you say, but the key-bed and that sound. Phenomenal.
I have the Electro 6. Love it!
lovely video, the SV2 Brough me here but after what you said about the action on the CP73 I'm not so sure now. I'll be getting the piano for other musicians to use on stage and I love the sounds of the KORG. it's imperative to have an 88 key or would he 73 key suffice? What would a Pro musician feel more at home with. The Nord interface, or the simplicity of the Korg layout or the keyed of the Yamaha?
Although very happy to hear the sound comparisons, I really valued your feedback on the action for each keyboard, as I find this is crucial for live playing to get the right feel. Very happy to hear the action of the Yamaha has that 'classy' edge to it. Think they all had their respective pluses and minuses, but feel overall the Yamaha won out, although wasn't as impressed with the organ sounds - however the pianos and e.p.'s were all fabulous.
I heard the Nord at the start of the video and looked over just after his hands moved to the Korg. I was really impressed with Korg for a second 😂
Awesome presentation - Thank you! How do these 3 compare from a weight perspective?
God bless you Jack, I was all upset and then you played that intro 🥲
Bravo great job. This is the best way you can review keys. Specialy we normally order now online. ... I love them all.... One of the best keys channel.... Sv still the best.. . Thay have their own taste cons and pros...... ..
The trouble is, I could make a solid argument for any or all of these.
Steve Rolfe I think anyone would be happy with any one :)
So I just purchased the YC 73. Fantastic board! BUT when it comes to the touch sensitivity there is hardly any difference between the Normal, Soft, Hard, Wide settings. And no one of these let you here the brightest tone even if I hammer away, which I dont like/want to do. So is there a way to change the depth of the sensitivity curve manually or something similar? The only setting that brings out the bright tones in an Rd for example i using the fixed setting and crank it up. But there goes dynamics. Please Yamaha update with a firmware or is there a way around this?
Any chance of you demoing some gigging setups Jack?
Keyboard + amp/PA?
Controller keyboard + laptop/iPad + amp/PA?
What is the cheapest practical gigging setup?
What is the cheapest practical busking setup?
That kind of thing.
I’d watch that^^
This!
Just plug your keyboard of choice into the mixer and send it back to a floor monitor or in ears...job done.
We are all growing dodgy beards during this madness. Love that Nord electro so much
I almost bought the korg until I discovered the Crumar Seven via youtube some days ago. In my experience, it sounds a lot better and there is support for Android and IOS. The effects and reverb are amazing.
Hey Jack, how can i get a pitch / bend wheel for the Korg SV2?
The wurli on the Yamaha 😍
They’re all great! I like the warmth on the Korg piano. It’s great for piano and voice, thus vocals stand out more. The big question is, can one make user presets?
User presets can be made on all of them my man, thanks for stopping by X
I love that warm Korg piano sound! And the feel like the piano is too bright on the Yamahhaaaaaaa 😂
Yamaha has everything bright. Sounds like an anime soundtrack
@@rorobobo8401 perfect x3
I love bright
Yamaha pianos are bright lol
I find the Korg too warm. The Nord and Yamaha are both more dynamic. I'm not sure if they Yamaha is that bright but it almost can talk. It articulates. In almost every voice it does and that's what I like about it. But I really dug the Nord's organ sound. The Korg was very pleasant but restrained. Still, it's nice.
According to my own experience, as reported also in some forums, on some CP73 devices there are problems with noisy and clunky keys !
I'm loving my CP73 especially for rhodes, wurli & acoustic piano. Having had previously Electro 5D & SV1's, and viewing this I'm more than happy with my choice. All are really good and have their strengths & weaknesses but CP73 strengths particularly are electric pianos, acoustic pianos, effects, audio interface, audio inputs & flexibility to have the 3 sections playing the same type of sound which is what I want. Weakness is organs so if organs are your thing then this is not the board for you, but for me LOVE IT.
Have you not heard the electric pianos on Korg?
I have been thinking about getting the Yamaha YC73 because I want better organ capabilities. I basically want one keyboard, at a fairly light weight that can be used for most if not all gigs. The problem is that I cant find one here in the LA area to test out the action. I've been told that the CP73 and the YC73 have the same action (also, sweetwater describes the action of both as balanced hammer action). So, what is the action like? My background is in in piano, so I would like action that feels more like a piano than an organ, but not super heavy. Could you please describe the action if you have a moment.Thanks!
The Yamaha is very bright and the Korg sounds like its being played through a tube amp>. Since its called Stage Vintage Piano -it probably explains what they were shooting for - that mellow vintage tone. I bought the version that comes with speakers similar to an old Wurlitzer I used to own
Great vid! - I am shopping for a stage piano - big help - love your playing and videos
Funny how the Nord gear subconsciously always ends up at the front Jack 🤣
Or...is it?Subconsciously;-))?Anyway, good point.Guess it;s the obvious.
InstaBlaster.
That’s it I’m giving up after watching that unbelievable intro. Jack can PLAY oh my ❤
Great comparison (and playing, as usual!). The only thing that is a bit unbalanced is the Korg and Yamaha keybed. They're weighted. The Electro's isn't. I owned the Korg before I went crazy with Nord's lineup... I liked it, but it was so limited, sound-wise. The huge benefit of the Nord is the Library system-- swap pianos in and out, swap sample synths and classic sounds in and out... hard to beat that whole system. The Piano Library is top-notch, sound-wise, and it blows my mind how good those pianos sound, and they're only around 100MB or less per piano. That's insanely small. Sure, it's the most expensive, but you definitely get a ton of bang for your buck with Nord and especially the Electro 6.
what do you think of the dexibell combo j7 compared to the nord electro 6d?
After my second listening thru quality headphones through the entire set of shootout videos, I bought a Nord stage 3 compact…(which is the electro 6D 73 with a synth and pitch/mod). IMO, There is no weak link sound wise in the Nord and the action is a good compromise for synth, organ while allowing decent expression for piano. I felt from these videos that the Kong would be better in the home environment as it’s eq was generally thicker & warmer, and hence pleasing as a solo instrument, and many of the Yamaha sounds felt either excessively weak & thin or just flat.. a feeling I have long had from my S70xs.. YMMV, but the Nord is worth the premium to me. Thanks for the video Jack
Hello, what the name of piano sound playing in 0:38?
I was struggling to decide between Yamaha CP73 and Nord Electro 6D. And, due the stage scenario like gigging and so, Yamaha felt more suitable to me. But it was a very hard decision, since I had a Nord Electro 3 for many many years. So far, I am pretty satisfied with CP73.
Like your videos, mate.
I wonder how the StudioLogic Numa X Piano would fit in this battle.
What are your thought about it ?
I'm a proud owner of the CP88, which is the big brother to the 73. The onboard control that you have and lack of menu diving is phenomenal. I'm not very familiar with Nords, as I've never been fortunate to own one, but the setup for the CPs is superior in my opinion. I noticed that the SV2 and Electro 6D had beefier piano sounds than the CP73, but the Master EQ section on the CP can make up for that if you're worried about getting a weeak piano sound. Also, you can instantly adjust the touch on the CP, which changes the note velocity. This will give the sounds a bit more of a punch to cut through the mix. All and all, if you want a Nord or something comparable, but the price tag is unobtainable, look at the CP88 or the 73.
The CP is really well thought out. Love the way they put the diferent sections and fx.
Weird, the price for the cp73 or the Nord E6D is exactly the same here in Denmark, at least atm.
Several people complain about the black keys on the CP73, like black keys don't produce full sound when played fast and hard...
I've owned a Nord Electro 5D HP. Sold it because the action became very noisy and not enjoyable to play. The acoustic piano sound was amazing though and really cutting through the mix in any context. Anyone knows if the KORG SV II has the same presence on stage in a band?
I think the warmth and subtle piano on the Korg sounds a little bit more appealing. I'm sure that this can be tweaked on the Yamaha too. Get us the Korg Grandstage for a comparison with these two
It seems to me that if you are planning on using organ on a regular basis, you have to spring for the Nord. If you're just focused on piano and eps however, it actually might save you some money to get the Yamaha or Korg, and you'd get a more suitable action for that type of playing. I still think the nord is probably just a bit better in the piano sound department (and they've got the library of sounds that comes with it) but is that worth $500? A lot to consider. Great video, as always.
I agree with your observation. I have a Nord Stage 2 and a CP88. I use the CP88 for piano-focussed live use (cuts through mix + superior keybed). If I need organs on a single board gig, then it's the Nord. For recording piano I tend play the Nord samples through the CP88 keybed
I listened with my Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro with the Fischer Amps - and soundwise, I liked the Nord most, but very shortly followed by the Yamaha - As I'm also s.o. who is VERY much into the finger-feeling of keys, I probably have to find a way to try out the Yamaha and the Nord in a music store or maybe a band somewhere nearby. As acoustic pianos I have a Kawai upright and a vintage Ibach baby grand, so I'm rather used to the "weighted and wood"-feeling :)
Will you ever review the gsi gemini?
IMO. Piano sounds great on all. The action on the Nord is the weak link. However the organ is stellar. How a keyboard feels under your hands effects how you play. The Yamaha has the action dialed in. The Rhodes on the Korg has evolved to be great. I think the ideal setup would be the Yamaha 88 digital piano, the Korg Kronos 73, and then the Nord stage 73 sw. A 3 tier stand, a sub mixer with a great set of in ears send signal out to house mix. Your good to go.
The Nord action should be some FATAR clone. Unfortunately the Nord hardware has regressed with every model. I owned an NE 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, a NE6 HP, and a Nord Stage 76. 2 and 3 were built like tanks. On the 4 the keybed had to be replaced, on the 5 some of the buttons fell off, and the keybed had to be replaced, and on the NE6 HP the action was so horrific that I swapped it against the NE6 ... where now the first keys have gone.
As much as I love the concept ... not again, not against that price.
A lazy 10k for that setup...
Somebody please convince me to get the cp88 over the korg. Man I really like that I can get speakers and look of the korg. Though the cp88 seems like a better keyboard overall..
You can buy the Nord Electro with piano style weighted keys, or the organ style waterfall ones he used in the video.
A video idea for playing alone: keyboards that will help you play alone. For example, arrangers, workstations, etc. Which have rhytms, arpegiators and can accompany you.
I think it's a good idea! but the comment sounded so sad when i read it at first 😂
Also the Roland VR-730, Vox Continental 73, Hammond SK1-73,
These are very good boards - the Roland has some questionable design choices and the Hammond is a bit weak, but it’s a solid jamming board and more affordable. Only just got a Vox 61 and this seems great, and very much overlooked.
is there no distortion for the yamaha clav??
Great playing my man! Great comparison, these are great option for the gigging musician ( which I’m not) you did an awesome job demoing them......It would be easy choice for me....nord is immediately out they are way overpriced where I am, I have a huge soft spot for Korg BUT( I realise it’s a matter of personal taste) along with the king Korg, the sv is just vomit inducing ugly to me- I get bold design but I just hate it. So it’s the Yamaha! I tried it and liked the keybed and loved the ergonomics ( which ironically seems pretty “influenced” by the nord I think) also love the Yamaha acoustic piano sound.
For piano sounds, Nord seemed to be slightly more realistic. Yamaha was also really close. But Nord has in the lower sounding region some overtones interaction that sounds like the real deal. Although whilst playing with a band, I think Yamaha behaves a little bit better. And the Korg has the upper hand on claves and Rhodes.
A number of beefier piano sounds have been added to the CP73 since this video was made.
It's a YC73, not a CP73.
@@christophermarziale3019…nope!
I stand corrected, I’m sorry! Great demos, always!
Everytime I hear Jack on the Nord it only makes me more sure that my next big buy will be either the Nord Stage 3 Compact or Nord Electro 6D. Jack:s the man:)
The Nord Stage 3 Compact is my dream keyboard.
I have the compact. It's a dream indeed 😎
The Stage 3 is a great keyboard indeed
These are all great keyboards but the Nord is greater :)
Buy it! But go for the Stage 3, I know it`s a high price to pay, but i can promise you will never regret it. Extreme sound-quality in a beatiful intuitive design. I sold my Yamaha Motif XS 88, bought the Stage 3 88 along with the rhodes-stand, tripple pedal and gig-bag and I have never looked back. Absolutely a dream-instrument for the gigging musician.
The SV2 is more of a piano/Rhodes keyboard for someone on stage with only that keyboard. If someone wants to have an organ and play with drawbars, then you go with a Hammond Xk-5 and a Kronos on top. I've played that set-up live and my gigging rig is a Hammond XK-2 with a Korg 01W-FD. So in reality the review should of had the Kronos for Korg which comes in a 73 key version and has more sounds than one can imagine.
I'm sooo tempted by that Yamaha but I really need organ sounds too. I know they are in there but playing organ on weighted keys is not much fun. Can anyone else suggest a good alrounder with waterfall keys...that isn't a Nord?
Get the yc man
Sphinx951 yes, that's what I'm going to get. Now they have come out with a 73 key version, that's what I'm going with. I didn't want a 61 key, that's why I'd written it off but they just made it easy for me :)
Anyone with a Korg wanna tell me how to make the piano sounds brighter? u'm borrowing my friend's SV2-88 (considering purchasing one) and the sounds are much too mellow for my liking. I tried adjusting the touch sensitivity and the balance... still doest quite do it.
Any luck doing so? I wonder the same. Can you make a Korg sv2 sound like a Nord? 😂
Jack,you are a entertainment jedi
I'm tossing up between Korg SV2s 88 and the CP88. I love the Korg EPs and would 100% take those over the CP ones. But I can't help but think that the acoustic pianos sound a bit better on the CP88. What do you guys think about the APs on the SV2? Does it sound excellent to anyone here?
If I had a gun to my head I'd go for the SV2s, just a uniquely inspiring bit of kit where they learnt from the first model and created something really unique and awesome. Getting my Dad one! Thanks for stopping by mate x
The piano sounds on the nord are unreal!! I'm wondering what audio interface was used for this recording
^^ Please Jack!
Pretty sure they use a UA Apollo 8, or something UA anyway
Hey guys, thanks so much for watching and commenting. We go into Radial Pro-DI boxes, then they go in to an Universal Apollo X8. No other processing going on. Hope that helps mate, wishing you all the best and thanks again for stopping by X
Jack Duxbury thank you! Do you think the DI box effects the sound at all, or would I get just as clear of a sound going directly into an apollo x8?
@@jackduxbury1632 , Radial DI is awesome! I’m using Radial JDI too and absolutely love it!
Why Yamaha didnt put the organ engine and drawbars of the YC61 on the CP? :/
The YC is the organ-centric one. But why have an organ-centric one? I don't know.
I don't understand why anyone would build an electronic keyboard without pitch bend and mod wheels - you don't have to use them! It's nice that you can now count on all the sounds to be at least good. That has certainly not always been true. I'll be checking out more of this guy.
Because two of them are Stage Pianos? Real pianos don’t have them and most people who buy these (especially if they’re decent pianists) wouldn’t be interested anyway. If you need wheels buy a synth. Only my opinion.
Nord electro 6d or hp ? Please help me choose
Nord just has really good keyboards, if only they matched my pocket. 😂 I wonder which I should choose between the CP73 and a MODX7, but the piano on the CP73 sounds like the perfect "cutting the mix" type of piano.
Ditto...
Just bought a 6D73 to replace an Electro 3. Nord has come a long way with this board. As for pitch bend and mod I always use a 2 layer setup so I have that covered with a MODX7 or soft synths depending on the band's requirements. Having owned the Nord for 10 years it was still my workhorse and keeper....until now ;)
Confirmation. I came across your comment; The Nord Electro 3 was my first dive into the red, but I just couldn't "unmuddle" the acoustic pianos enough to warrant keeping it for the duration of the 45 day return period more than a decade ago. I scored a NP5 recently... 😍 I'm in love. They have definitely either improved the samples, EQ, or converters, because it just sounds amazing. it can still be muddy & obnoxiously ambient through certain monitors, but absolutely salvageable with this EQ. I just wish i had a 5 Band EQ with gain compensation & Q. But, the next model.
@@dare2win215 Glad you like your new Nord. Try the Stockholm EP which was released on their website in the last 6 months. It's a vast improvement on the Rhodes Piano of old. The piano action on yours will lend itself well to it. ;) Cheers from Australia.
Hi. I think the best comparison is to set up a live band and play a coupleof songs live.
After looked at many youtube clip etc… I bought the NS4 73 and for me it doesnt do the job live. But in studio or at home it sounds good.
So its hard to trust video clips
Cheers/ Martin
They all sound great! To my ears, they're all on par in Acoustic Piano but they seem to be sampling different pianos. On the EP, the Yamaha sounds the most realistic to me, as it has more nuances. On Clav, maybe the Korg is just weaker to my ears.
I have the NE6d same As the one you have there. But i can’t get as fine pianosound when i play it as you have. But if i connect it via midi to my roland fa08 with weighted Keys i Think it change its Sound. And its wierd because its the same piano sounds. Maybe its because of the weighted Keys.
The Rhodes piano on the Korg sounds more stereo.
>Sensational!
would love to see a review of the kurzweil pc4 too!
The Korg piano sounds sound more compressed to me, is this the nature of the sample or due to effects ?
It’s probably the warmth from the tube you’re hearing, for that vintage sound on vintage electric pianos
@@therobloxbunny9464
The tube you wont hear with piano sounds, they come with amp simulation only.
Jack is not using much of it in any of his videos.
Would be cool to see a comparison between stage pianos and Arturia Analog Lab pianos!
No love for the Forte76?
I really want that Korg...but they have still missed a couple of things for me. Maybe the Yamaha will be my next buy. I'm so confused 🤔
same, this video brought me more doubts than certainties
@@Franatom lol, I think there’s too many choices 😂
YES I came here because I was deciding whether to buy a korg now or save some money to get the nord... but now I have to consider the YAAAAmaha
between the three effected clavs you could just tweak the effects to make them sound like one or the other
To be fair, Jack did say that in his vid. This was just a quick run through with 'out of the box' settings
@@andertonsfan3144 Even with the non-effected sounds: each of these boards offer different variations of the sounds discussed, but variations that could be matched, e.g. rhodes mark 1, 2, etc., acoustic piano grand, upright, etc. Comparing the first preset without specifying what kind of variation of the real instrument it's supposed to be doesn't make sense at all. In a band setting the sonic difference or shortcomings will be totally overcome with equalization and all of these boards will sound totally different with amps, mono or stereo, etc. An interface comparison and a word about the feel of the boards would have been interesting. Another thing of interest: the three boards are supposed to have a very different touch since the HP is not used here and the CP72 is supposed to have a lighter touch than CP88.
I seem to be in a minority but I just love the sound of the korg piano. These videos are so great but i really wish these guys made sure the levels of each instrument were set more equally.
That's actually a bit more difficult than you might imagine.
Surprised by the quality of the EPs and clav on the Yamaha. Also surprised by how bad the Yamaha organ was. That was supposed to be a B3? Sounded like a Vox or Farfisa.
Spencer Ellsworth the organs are crap cause they want you to by the YC61 for that :/
Nord is certainly the best as an organ. The Yamaha YC series, like the YC61, would actually be more comparable to it. Although the Nord sounds good overall, the action isn't really right for a stage piano, and the Yamaha sounds good as well, so the Yamaha would be the best choice for a piano/EP player. I didn't care for the Korg, which sounded dull and didn't seem like it would cut through in a band.
You might also consider the Yamaha MODX7, which is about the same price as the CP and has a lot of capabilities from the Montage.
SV-2 vs Grandstage please
Good review. I had chance to play on Nord Electro, Korg, Yamaha YC88. Nord Electro has good sounds, but the action put me down. Korg action was really close to Kawai RH3, sound-wise not so impressed by acoustic pianos. Wurly and electric piano were very good on Yamaha YC88 and also Hammond organ was nice. I ended up playing the Nord Grand and wow!: action much better than Nord Electro, much lighter than YC88 but the action/sound integration was really great, ...sorry can't explain better.. the connection with piano was superior and very inspiring to play. In the end it made me think that YC88 was like other Yamaha.. good, solid, clean sounds, but not inspiring.
what about the Hammond SK1pro
YamahaCP73- Acoustic Piano
Korg SV2- Rhodes
Nord- Organ
I really don’t wanna get the electro 6 but I have to. The Mojo 61 I had my 👁 👁 on but it isn’t multitimbral like the Nord. Year after year the Nord beats the competition for bread and butter sounds. I wish someone would tread on its toes. I would love to see Nord do what Mojo have done for organ. they’ve added a lower optional manual which looks a lot cooler than a midi lower keybed for your organ, and the dual manual workaround buttons are very logical on the mojo 61.

Hello. I prefer the soundt of the nord for the Organ. For the other sounds : Yamaha.
But the best in dynamic is the nord. Just for my opinion.
