I have a modx8 that I love for piano feel but have the nord stage 4 compact for portability and easy of playing. But the polyphony on the Nord is insane!!! Layering 8 sounds together with no issues, I can't even layer 5 on my modx8 without dropouts. And the knob per function is killer
Hey Brother you are a 100% Right. Nord Stage 4 blends extremely well with the Montage M8X as well when you have a secondary Keyboard player. I know because we having a lot success with it at the church I play for. Overall Nord Stage 4 is more superior in sound and functioned. I was intimidated at first but as I dug into the Nord Stage 4 it become very logical, practical and easy to use especially with the Faders and Download Banks. Here is the kicker Nord Sound Stage Manager connected to the Laptop allows you see all the sounds of the keyboard on your computer screen and to move to those sounds with one click of the mouse from your laptop. This gives the Nord Stage 4 great mobility for the musician.
Love the improvements with how you edited the video, camera also appears to be upgraded. Havent been able to get my hands on a Nord, hope to someday! Keep up the good work brotha!
Ummm correction Keyscape is AMAZING!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂 But i understand your points. Keyscape to me sounds better but its one of those with the nord You Can't go wrong and hands down nord is definitely by far the #1 board for a reason!!!
I have the S4 and I am still waiting for Nord to do the right thing and increase the internal memory to say 5 Gig so you can load all libraries and sounds. It is a shame they have not done so already with what they are charging for the keyboard! They could even do a upgrade for the S4! I mean I can get a 1-2 T memory card for my Nikon camera!
They won’t do that,they want you to spend another 6 grand for a little extra memory maybe on their next release,it’s corporate greed and totally ridiculous
For the price of that keyboard you should not have to use Omnisphere and Keyscape. That’s just my humble and personal opinionT. he Stage 4 is the only Nord that I like completely and the only one that’s worth the price tag (That is from spending 2 hours on it at GC). They really set the bar high this time.
Appreciate your feedback as a non-Nord user but would to have actual examples of the patches or workflow you are referencing. Compared to M-Audio POS? I would hope for $6k the keybed is superior.

Great review! The Nord is an excellent live performance keyboard!
Yes indeed!
can't go wrong with Nord/Yamaha. got an XS6 myself and 6 Nords.

@@robertmichalscheck3072 Yeah, they could do so much more if they would get their heads out of the sand!
@@JC-td4gg 😂😂 very true
Royal Grand 3D XL is the best. So so good!!
The best piano sample in my opinion.

They did! Love the stage 4 I just like the versatily that I have with omnisphere and keyscape with my ableton set up.

I will do a video on this soon!
Just stumbled into your channel. I just swooped the fantom and im diggin it. If i had the cash i would consider the nord.
Is the Roland grand 3dxl a stock nord sound on the stage 4,or does it have to be downloaded?
royal grand not roland grand 3d kl ;) confused me for a bit
Yeah. NORD!
What sounds do you use on omnisphere?
I am going to do a video breaking this down
Was Ableton ever the Center piece??. 🤔
It was in my last video I did on my channel that's what was driving all of my keyboards and still technically is.
It’s ok, however the nord piano is cooler minus the lack of sounds and features
i might re-watch and count the times you said 'amazing' lol
I know I said it a bunch 😂😂😂
It is NOT a "workstation"... no need to make it seem what it's not. @8:45 ... the Montage is
It definitely is not a workstation 😂
