Nord Modular G3 plz 😛
i personally don't understand this product. I don't see why the recently upgraded Nord Stage couldn't have waited a little while so that these ideas could have been put in to this. The great thing about Nord Stage pianos is their versitility when performing, with numerous different timbres and a fantastic synth section. The idea that it is more specific doesn't appeal to me and i aren't sure that it will be appealing to many people at all.
If I were to buy one of these, i would be disappointed every morning when i wake up, knowing that i can't play a truely stunning hammond replication and i can't have a wurly at the tips of my fingers. All we can hope for is that it's cheap…and that won't happen. Am i not the only one that thinks this piano is a huge step backwards for Clavia?

I think this one is designed also for the market of home-users. Dont forget Stage is 100% professional instrument and it can be too complicated for people who just want to play at home their favourite songs time to time. Price is highly expected, but it would be big surprise, if Clavia made anything highly affordable:)). As well, I thought this one would have better keyboard than Stage, but it looks it has the same.
@nicke1990 – actually, had you read the article you’d have noticed it does feature the Nord library of electric pianos (which means wurly, too), as well as clav & harpsichord.
The fact it doesn’t have a hammond sound I personally don’t think is a big deal, any serious hammond playing can’t be done on piano-action keys anyway, as ‘convenient’ as it might be.
I think this and the Nord C2 would complement each other nicely, depending on its price.
To me it looks like they’re trying to keep up/compete with Korg’s new SV-1, by stripping the Organ, Synth, and other fancy stuff out of the Stage.
Hopefully this means they’ve lowered the price significantly, my bet is it’ll be in the ball park of Korg’s new offering (which isn’t exactly cheap).
I really dont think this is a piano for on stage. Its more like a 70s design or something like that. I dont know why they sell it so expensive if its functionalities are very limited to nearly the basics. In todays technological world, its not fair to sell things that dont have a valuable gadget accessory to explain the reason for its price.
