That’s highly unlikely - they can’t be bothered to update the organ model they’ve been using for years. A model which sounded good in 2013 but today… not so good. One of many reasons I’m not paying for a Nord Stage 4.
Maybe its me but I've played the Nord C2D but minus the the Leslie sim just straight organ sound, the Viscount to my ears is more realistic than the Nord
The viscount live is ok could be alot better. I preferred the organ on the C2D. The viscount live lacked in hearing the rotor/horn turning. The new soul is better but 2x more expensive
nice find. the price on these have gone crazy. I lucked up on a C2 a year or so again. I didn't really need it, but I knew they were getting to where they didn't come up for sale as often as they use to. I have a 330 Leslie to go with it - play gospel as well as classical so I like the Hammond/pipe combo.
I found mine at Sam Ash here in Orlando and traded a Nord 6d and A Dexibell organ for it and have been the happiest organ player in the city!! Love it!!!
It would have been nice to give context examples regarding how the two organs actually compare to each other. Just on this example, the CD2 sounds like the Viscount. They both sound very nice for organ clones, I would not be able to say one has an edge over the other in isolation. Anyway, thanks for the commentary.
I have had a Nord C2D for 7 years and would like to know if the Viscount has a more authentic B3/C3 sound. I only recently became aware that the Viscount existed. Thanks for this video. I now feel like I am not missing out on anything. I have not ever used the High Level Out. Have you found a use for it yet?
Your not missing anything, I just recently had to sell the C2D for financial reasons. But the C2D still out performs the Viscount Legend Live easily. Keep the C2D
Either I've gone crazy or I'm going deaf. I have owned the Viscount Legend, Crumar Mojo, Hammond SK1, Hammond SK Pro, Roland VR730 and currently own a Nord Stage 4 Compact. The worst organ of all by far is the Nord Stage 4. Its organ motor sounds like absolute shit. I have been lucky enough to improve the tone by taking the organ out of the two auxiliary outputs and passing it through a Neo Ventilator II. Without the Ventilator it sounds horrible, not very clear and it seems that the sound is put inside a cardboard box. I think that with the amount of money you pay for this keyboard, it is a shame that they don't bother to update the organ and have a decent one. My favorite of all of them is the Crumar Mojo.
I truly believe the C2D engine has been altered a bit. I own a stage 3 compact and find the organ Is a bit limited myself. And sounds completely different than the electro 6d and C2D Dual manual. I do now own a crumar mojo classic and love it
The Nord is nice but the Viscount hooked up to a Leslie is insane and has a more authentic sound but I love the Nord 4 keyboard but as for an Hammond clone Viscount all the way
@doeshecare that's where the viscount especially the live fell short for me, I relied on the internal leslie because I don't have an actual leslie to hook up to, so without a real leslie the internal sim on the viscount is dare I say trash. That C2D and other clones shine in that area, not to mention the viscounts portability is terrible especially for someone of my size and height
@@itsmaistro that’s understandable but the challenge is that we’re marketing a keyboard that’s not even available on the market in quantity nore affordability anymore it’s great that you have one and that it works for you but the issiue is if we were to be won over to get a Nord most of us would not be able to get one anyway because there not on the market like they use to be, befor the pandemic I could buy an full nord in a bundle deal with peddles for around 4000-5000, but now because of supply and demand they have gone up in price. I never stated that the Nord was trash, it’s far from that it’s deffinetly a great keyboard. It was my first choice before I heared the Viscount. But for the price, availability and sound the Viscount is deffinetly a great choice. Your one of the lucky ones according to your taste and to add I have heard the viscount set up to a sound system and in my opinion they still sound awesome. ❤️ best of luck and make some awesome music with you new Nord.
@@itsmaistro that is revealing a concept ive thought as i first watched this video, if the other guy traded you this C2D for a viscount, why would he do that if it was better???
Man, I have been wanting a Nord C2d for so many years.. can’t find one anywhere… I even got scammed trying to buy one. Where in the world did you find this organ!!!….
If Nord dropped a new C3D would you buy it ?

@PaulHarrisonmusician agreed. I recently kicked up thr stage 3 compact which I love. Would love the stage 4 but the price point is insane
Nord no longer makes organs no market for them.

Good choice! Congrats
Thank you
You were lucky to find one. I saw one for sale for over 5 grand! No way!
Yes indeed, I couldn't believe it myself
GOOD VIDEO !
Thank you
how the heck did you get a nord C2D??
Hey bro how did you make this trade?
I had the viscount up for sale and a guy with a C2D offered it as a trade
@@itsmaistro gotcha.
@@itsmaistro that is revealing a concept ive thought as i first watched this video, if the other guy traded you this C2D for a viscount, why would he do that if it was better???
@@TeeMann-pi2cy he had two already and didn't need the other
Why did Nord stop making them?
Have no idea but wish they start making them again, they still keep it in their videos
Man, I have been wanting a Nord C2d for so many years.. can’t find one anywhere… I even got scammed trying to buy one. Where in the world did you find this organ!!!….
