Grand Pianos Nord Factory Sound Demos | String Resonance & Nord Piano Library sounds sizes explained 

You deserve the glory and the honour

I watched this video again and I have to emphasize how impressed I am with you piano playing. Thank you, Michael

Well done! This is exactly how piano samples should be demonstrated, be it for Nord or any other brand. As being executed here, the focus should be on the middle of the keyboard (which is the hardest part for the manufacturer to get right), allowing the notes to sustain and resonate. Too many "demonstrators" will go on an ego trip to show you how many notes and chords they can squeeze into a bar. Successive jazz voicings and fast runs will likely get a lot of likes for the technical ability of the player, but they will not show any deficiencies the sample may have, as the sound doesn't last long enough. Even toy pianos will sound OK when demonstrated this way. Things will be very different the first time you play a pop ballad. Again well done!

White grand for the win 🙂

Very well played Stan, very informative on the Nord. I like the Grand 3D & the Grand Imperial. Thankyou for taking the trouble to demonstrate these sounds.

It's great to have the names of the pianos sampled and the introductions

I had completely forgotten that I had seen this video before, and posted a previous comment, but I so enjoyed it this time around, because of the song you played, cos it is one of my favourites. I love the chord substitutions you made, awesome and interesting. I see you are based in the UK. I'm in Wales. The image quality(lighting, colours, and focusing) and sound quality of your video are excellent, also the way you delivered the information, was very well paced, and not rushed. Just the way I like it. Calm and measured. I think I now consider things a bit differently to my earlier comment, where I expressed a preference for the Yamaha Montage piano sound. I think both of these sounds are wonderful and can co-exist, in the same music group or in a studio, if one can afford both, to provide more colours. Clearly the Nord Pianos have more "character" and sound far more realistic, more like a proper sampled piano. But above all, they have their own "Nord" piano sound that is not available in other instruments. Your video is very informative. Thank you.

Great video. This is exactly what I have been looking for (I got a Nord Piano bug recently after being a Yamaha digital piano user for a while). I wish the action could be a bit better. Thank you.

Thanks for this!

Thanks for this demo. It convinced me that the Yamaha Montage/MODX+ are more of what I want to hear when I am playing keyboards.

Thanks for the video, Stan. Beautifully played and I like your comments on the context of the different pianos. One question I have: did you have the pianos all in the instrument's memory at the same time? I wonder all the time how far you can get with the apparently quite limited memory of the Nord instruments. Thank you very much.

Good night Stan, how are you? Congratulations! I have never heard Nord pianos sound so bdm equalized. What did you do to get that clean, heavy, crystal clear sound? Was it equalization on nord piano 5?

How are u recording everything from the laptop piano to mic sounds really clean

Amigo que monitor usas para el Nord para amplificarlo?

Just less damper n reverb
