Inside a Nord Stage 3 88!
Просмотров 11 тыс.4 года назад
UPDATE! Took it apart again, went through the same process, however this time used a tiny smidge of electrical cleaner on the contact board. Did the trick, and alls sorted! Nord Stage 3 88 key with weird irrational velocities. In this video I attempt to cure, but only end up improving. I improved it a lot, and the one remaining note is much better than it was. Let me know what you think!
How to fix 'bobbly' dampers on a Fender Rhodes

Quick instructional video on how to rectify the bobbly damper issue that can arise on old unloved instruments. It gives the impression the hammer double strikes, but it's actually the damper not stopping first time.

A nice little groove to loosen your mind and bop your head. Literally the only reason it's called Lettuce Face is because I cut up a lettuce after I'd finished the audio mix... Enjoy.

Many steps missing from this video.
First time i see someone use a steam engine for percussion but why not after all!
Haha, it made the exact noise I was looking for!
Makes you wanna get up and groove, nice work 👍
Thank you very much for your kind words!
Which torx size screwdriver to unscrew the nails, can’t believe this info isn’t anywhere online or the nord manual 😢
Can't remember exactly now, was a long time ago. Just whichever was the best fit!
How did you remove the ring on monitor in jack? To get PCB board out
I'm sorry, I can't remember as it was a long time ago now. Didn't think I had to tbh.
i like it
This could help: ruclips.net/video/u_O6h2-2GNA/видео.html To address the issue, you should first detach the Conductive Rubber located beneath the key and carefully clean the contact areas underneath. The rubber can be easily removed, cleaned, and then repositioned without significant risk. Understanding the underlying mechanism is crucial. Each rubber piece houses two keys, with one key being slightly higher than the other. Pressing a key initially activates the higher key, followed shortly by the activation of the second key, depending on the speed of the press. The keyboard controller calculates the time difference between the activations of the two keys to determine the speed at which the key was pressed. Over time, the contact points within the rubber can accumulate dirt, leading to only one key sending a signal. Consequently, the controller interprets this as the key being pressed at maximum speed, which is noticeable in the louder sound produced by a faulty key. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the rubber, clean the conductive areas inside it, and then reinstall it. However, be careful to avoid touching, scraping, or applying any chemicals to the graphite conductors on the board (PCB) itself, as this could cause irreversible damage. **Disclaimer:** This procedure is intended for informational purposes and should be performed at your own risk. If you lack technical expertise, it is advisable not to attempt this repair yourself.
Thank you for your info!
OUAOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video thanks, my question is i found half of the pickup coils wrapped in clear plastic (like a finger plaster) on my Rhodes, ive searched the internet but cant find any info if this would prevent further erosion, or do you think it only keeps dust away from them? Thanks
Nice boogie woogie groove. What is the big upright you are playing?
Thanks man! Piano is a Yamaha U1. Sadly not mine! (I tune pianos, and this was a customers I'd just finished tuning, so was testing out)!
Great video. Thousands of thanks. Succeeded in getting it al done in 2,5 hours. Used a knitting pin by the way rather than a paper clip. But great stuff. Saves me weeks of waiting for repair.
Yeah this was how I did mine 30 years ago too (pre internet)... problem was that the wire is so fragile that it could easily break mid way through... still... back in those days had no options.. .could not get any local shops to stock the wire in that gauge...
I had this happen a few times. Scraped each broken end back, tied back together and carried on!
Hey thanks for the useful vid. I am wondering though, why rewind the entire pickup when you could just unwind one loop then reattach the wire the spool post? Thanks for your help
Shoutout to the Zoom LiveTrak in the background. An underated studio tool.
They really are, it's an amazing piece of kit - used this for all my production work for a few years now!
I still come visit.
This video is what i was looking for 2 days long now... (Not that much people talking about it actually !) I have half my pickups down and looking for a solution without have my entire bank account in debt...thinking to get new wires on the internet to make each pickup over from it. I only know the 180 ohms they should have... dont know which pole N/S my 73 pickups should have, how to propely remagnetize ?
Exactly why I did the same. Simply couldn't afford to replace all the dead ones with new. The magnets shouldn't need re-magnetizing?
@@groovemonkey73 i checked each magnet orientation and they are all the same so i think it is good. I will receive an unwinder machine -hum.. from china- at the end of the mounth and i made a 3D printed part so that the pickup can be plugged in and turn freely as you did here.
Nice! Good luck!
thanks for this 🎹
Very welcome :)
Thanks for showing the inside! At 6:58 I saw exactly what I was looking for: one of the mounting profiles for the Nord Stand Ex brackets. I’ve ordered this stand for my NS3 Compact, which I know is not supported, but I’m planning to create and install some similar profiles. There’s plenty of room inside so it should work out. Cheers!
How did you get initial cover off? Noticed when I was attempting to do so there seemed to be resistance. Are there additional screws on the bottom that have to be taken out?
It's been a while since I did this, but yes there were additional screws. I can't remember if they were on the bottom or on the back!
So awesome!!!
This is blues not funk
Nice video, there aren't any videos of Nord showing the actions of their keybeds like other brands do, now I see why, It's dissapointing to see that such a high priced keyboard has plastic action, for the same price you can get a Kawai MP11SE with wood keys and a grand piano action, or for less price than the NS3 you can a get a Yamaha CP88 also with wood keys. Korg has the RH3 action all plastic, and the SV2 is a lot lower in the price range... I think I'll go for the SV2 73 keys. I guess with Nord the extra price is for their sound samples...
You're absolutely right. My next plan is to get the stage 3 with SW keys, and also a really good midi controller, so I have a lovely weighted instrument playing the Nord pianos, but still having the option of the SW keys for the quicker Ep stuff.
thank you!!
Literally the only thing bad in this video are the Minion pajamas. Everything else is sublime!
Brilliant 👌
where do the red/blk keys come from?
awesome video, gave us a look under the hood
Can anyone suggest some bands that play this kind of music?
Good¡¡ A question, I bought a Nord Electro in Spain, but now im in Mexico and I want to play here, do you know what I have to chance into The Nord to make it sound . thanks
nice job ! how to measure the length of the wire for the appropriate pick up resistance !?
@@groovemonkey73 hey, thanks for your video :) if I were to use a laser counter, how many revolutions should I aim for?
Hey, thanks! I don't know exactly, but I THINK it's around 2900.
Excellent! Thank you so much for helping me understand whats going wrong with bad pickups (broken wires) and how to fix them. While your set up was a good work around, I’m going to try rewinding pickups using a sewing machine’s bobbin threading feature.
I have a similar problem with the 3rd f# at my nord stage 3 88 its just a bit louder than the other notes… not that much like your start of the video.. imagine that many people not even notice that tiny a bit louder f# than the other notes.. but it is annoying my ears… and i am a hearing nerd… What we must do to fix it??
@@groovemonkey73 it seems that i hear it much at the royal grand 3d compared to other sounds and the bigger problem is that my nord stage 3 88 bought before 4 months and never gone outside of the house.. and always with the dust cover on when not playing… so i can hardly believe its dust
Brought a smile to my face - thank you.
Oh my, every nord owner will have to encounter THIS overpriced problem. To hell the overpriced NORD LOL, to hell Roland with sluggish PHAs! Who's next LOL
You forgot to show one step--there are 3 screws on the BOTTOM of the keyboard.--same size as the ones in back.Once those are removed,the top lifts up very easily as pictured in your video.Plus you need to disconnect the bands from the motherboard.
i came to here just to sse nord how looks like inside and i was loved nord and i want one but I'm disappointed now you pay a lot of money for nothing there is no much component inside it looks cheap
There isn't much actual physical 'stuff' inside of them, but in my opinion their sound engines/technology/software/sampling capabilities, denote that they don't need tonnes of hardware. The biggest thing that let Nord down is their keybeds, especially in the weighted variety. They never really got it, hence why they use a Kawai keybed in the Nord Grand.
@@groovemonkey73 do you mean nord stage keypad doesn't feel good please i need the honest answer i want to purchase one we don't have stores here to go and try it
@@groovemonkey73 the best solution would be to use a MIDI keyboard with Nord VST(if it would exist) Then it wouldn't have to buy an overpriced toy
@@elmehdioubouhouch Forget about the nord! Buy a MIDI keyboard and use VST. You'll get high quality sounds, much better than Nord's
Fun...Kay!
Ah man, thanks Jonathan! You're such a legend.
This guy was really able to proove that he didn't just use editing to make this
super nice
