A sophisticated instrument for the performing keyboardist
The Nord Piano 4 is a sophisticated instrument that raises the bar for performance-oriented professional keyboards. Featuring Nord's superb 88-note Virtual Hammer Action weighted keybed, the Piano 4 lets you quickly select, play, split, and layer the latest grands, uprights, and EPs from the Nord Piano Library with sounds from the Nord Sample Library, which contains over 1,000 high-quality sample-based instruments. With knobs and buttons for every function, this puts serious sonic firepower at your fingertips, letting you rip through an entire musically varied live set with just a few button presses. If you're a serious pianist who needs a huge sonic arsenal for stage and studio, the Nord Piano 4 is made for you.
Intuitive and expressive
Instead of confusing menus, the Nord Piano 4 sports dedicated knobs and buttons for every function, so you can call up your sounds instantly, even on a darkened stage. No more diving into menu purgatory — just reach out and tweak! The Nord Piano 4 comes with Nord's Triple Pedal, which includes a dynamic sustain pedal that can re-create natural mechanical damper noises, elevating your acoustic piano performances to a new level of expressiveness and realism.
Nord quality for years of trouble-free use
The Nord Piano 4's bright red color isn't exactly a feature, but it is emblematic of the Swedish company whose handmade keyboards are seen under the fingers of some of music's brightest keyboard stars. The keyboardists hold Nord products in extremely high regard. They are designed and built to the highest standards for years of serious professional use, and their sound libraries are strictly top-notch.
