Hello @Daniel Mikkelsen - Nice to hear from you! Yes, it's available, and I just placed my order for a 73 HA version using my new Sweetwater affiliate program relationship! For those looking to purchase a Nord keyboard at Sweetwater, please use my affiliate link here www.syntorial.com/#a_aid=MyKeysToMusic. You won't pay any extra by using the link, but the commission funds will help support the channel. I plan to have content soon on all this... 👍🏻 🎹 THANKS!
@@MyKeysToMusic Nice to be in touch again, I just got really exited to see this. Big surprise. Congratz on your purchase! Look forward to hear how you like it!
I've watched so many of your videos, and just wanted to say, somewhere, that I think you are an incredibly kind genius! The amount of time you take to prepare these videos must be insane, and please know that all of us have a huge amount of appreciation for what you do. THANK YOU!
Well, thanks so much lenmusic! Your appreciation and comments here are very welcome. I look forward to continuing the journey so thanks for coming along for the ride!
Thank you so much for this treasure of information, the Nord synth is definitely complicated and needs to be explained. here is what I found about Sound initial and program init, you could initial panel A or B with sound init individually. If you'd like to start fresh A& B panels then use the Program init.
Thank you @Joe Palawan - Thanks for the comment! In most of these early videos, I focused on just resetting the synth engine itself and paid less attention to resetting the entire program, but you bring up a great point here and I'm glad you mentioned it.
Marc this is the greatest tutorial series on the Nord Stage 3 I've seen. Easy to understand, to the point, and I can't imagine the time/effort put into making this. Thank you!
Thank you so much Garrett! Really appreciate you stopping by and writing this comment. It is wonderful to see the impact videos can make on the community and fun to learn from one another along the way too! Enjoy making music...
Good job Marc. I am a very advanced user of this synth, and I think what you are doing will really help a lot of folks out, as this is the only video series on this subject as far as I know. One tip though, if you have the latest OS installed (1.6) when holding shift and sound init, you can double click the sound init button and not have to keep clicking ok. Again, really good job and I applaud you!
Hey Obwanz 1! Thanks for the comment and for the tip - that was great one! Going to pin this comment at the top for a bit so people can read about that.
My Keys To Music Awesome 👍 Yes, I know the NS3 backwards, and have programmed several hundred synth presets, so feel free to ask anything, although it looks like you definitely have it down 😀
If you want, send me your email, and I’ll send you some presets (bundle) I just finished a THX intro patch that really shows off the synth and morphing!
Thanks for the tips. I believe this one was one of my earlier videos but it is interesting to watch the earlier ones versus the later ones. Had I to do it all over again, I believe the second round of training for the Synth engine would be improved on a number of levels not least of which is my understanding of the synth engine now versus back then.
THANK YOU! Your tutorial videos are the best. Just finished watching all four Stage 3 tutorials and they all made sense. Thanks for helping musician like who love synth but not necessary good at reading manuals (I DID read it... then was too painful). I enjoyed every minutes of your tutorials and now I'm totally ready for my gigs (well almost).
Thanks Brian! (Not the first time I've heard that or something similar). In a way, I can remain neutral by not being on the payroll so that's a good thing at times too 😎 🎹. Take care and enjoy your Nord keyboard (assuming you have one)...
YEEEAAAHHHHHHH 🕺🕺🕺 I haven't had time yet to see it completely, but THIS is the video, or series of videos, I was expecting for. THANK YOU MARC !!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks a lot Marc for your tutorials! They are explained ground up and easy to understand without getting lost in the complexities. I just purchased a Nord Stage 4 as my first Nord Piano and I really hope you make a tutorial for the Synth Section as well. I can't yet wrap my head around it.
Thank you so much for helping me getting trough these stages of understanding my new keyboard!! Couldn’t have done it without you!so grateful for you doing that work
Glad you like that Mathilde! Thanks for your comment today - it helps me understand where the needs are and what is helping. FYI I'm just now recreating the entire synth section of the "Master the Nord Stage 3" course found here (www.MyKeysToMusic.com). The new lessons are based on the newer style Nord Stage 3 and I have a better/easier/quicker way to teach the synth now (I hope). 😄Thanks again!
This video series and your introduction to Synths has made the incredibly daunting feat of learning my Stage 3 a blast. I love my Nord Stage 3 but it's an instrument that has genuinely overwhelmed me to an insane degree. Then I found this, it's been amazing and made a monster instrument into a friend. Appreciation is an understatement!
So happy to hear this Juan. I agree, you'll have a whole other level of appreciation once you figure it all out. 🎵 Keep up the good work learning your instrument! 🎹
Just started on my new Stage 3 (HP76) - Nord have now added a separate ‘Osc Config’ knob in the Oscillator section instead of having to Shift the ’Osc 2 Pitch’ knob. Huge thanks for great videos 🙏
Hello @John. Thanks for the comment and congrats on your new Nord Stage 3! So, In the pro course, I created new lessons (mostly) that use the new panel layout if you want to check that out on my main website. In addition, I made a video addressing the different panel layouts here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE---KaUGMb67U.html
Great job! I really appreciate such contribution to the Nord tutorials! Super easy to understand and apply the knowledge just immediately! Thank you one more time! I am looking forward for the following tutorials!
Hi Vladimir! Thanks for your comments and so glad to know you can apply the knowledge right away. You may have noticed that I released the Nord Stage 3 Part 2 today making this the longest video I ever created but also packed with some good info on the Nord Stage 3 Oscillators! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for doing this series for us, im gona check this out when I have some time and your website introduction to synthesis, thanks again buddy.
@@MyKeysToMusic My pleasure. I now know how to identify the isolated samples - thank you! (the manual doesn't really tell you how to go about this! Am now setting up a nice arpeggiated harp passage for a recording session on Monday :) ). Really looking forward to the second instalment in this series.
Just a heads up for anyone else on a newer Nord. I think the newer knob layouts may be a bit different. At 14:34, I actually have a separate config knob (between the OSC 1 and OSC 2 knobs) to enable the second oscillator. Awesome vid, thanks!
Hello Trevor - thanks for your comment. Yes, you are 100% correct. They released a newer version of the panel and changed a few things along the way. Here is me talking about all this in a dedicated video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE---KaUGMb67U.html
@JumpIrina I'm Happy to hear that these videos are helpful! By the way, my main website offers more free and paid courses, and there is lots of additional NS3 content on my Patreon if you want to go even further. Enjoy your Nord! 🎹
Thanks Marc, I'm a professional keyboard player, and I JUST got my NORD Stage 3. This first video is great, so I'm looking forward to the rest. Thanks for doing this! I'm looking forward to seeing what this beast can do. :-)
Hi Jonny! Welcome to the club. There are a lot of videos here for you to review. Enjoy "the beast!" and report back anytime on anything that gets you excited or that you learned or if you just want to share something or want to ask a question...

Thank you, very much. I got here after hearing a video of Tedeschi-Trucks. I was curious and this approach is helpful. My first 2 were the yamaha CS-5 and the Roland JX-3P... the Nord looks good.
Hey @Jay Fulton thanks for your comment. Interesting that Tedeschi-Trucks uses a Nord Stage 2 so somehow my video must have been suggested? In any case, yes the Stage 3 is a very flexible keyboard for live performance - covers a lot of sonic bases. Cheers!
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You Marc ! This teaching is so needed and the way that you teach is so plain and easy to understand is refreshing. Great Job Sir : )
Not to rush you on part 2 Marc, you take your time . There is enough on part 1 to go back over and pick apart. If I am like most people and I believe I am ,our lives are very busy and taking the time to watch and apply these excellent teachings takes some shifting of the priority’s in our daily lives.

Thank you so much! I am learning so much from your videos. Your manner is so clear, you don't flap your arms like some, either! You are a true teacher, aiming to pass over knowledge and enable skills steadily but without it being boring. I am learning a step at a time, practising then going back and watching a little more. I have over 50 years piano playing, over 40 years teaching experience and I like to know exactly what I'm doing a step at a time, without being made to feel stupid. I notice my synth doesn't have the number 1 or Basic written on the top of Wave 16 but it's either a different edition of the stage 3, I guess, or I'll find that bit later. Thank you, I REALLY value these videos!😊
@helenflundermusic Hello Hellen! Thanks for taking the time to write this comment. It sounds like you are enjoying your Nord Stage 3! Yes, you might have a newer version of the Stage 3 which is a tad different in some areas. I did most of these videos using the original version of the Nord Stage 3. You might be interested in enrolling in the Main course on my website for the latest/greatest training and a fair amount of exclusive content as well. www.MyKeysToMusic.com I checked out your channel - you are a creative singer/songwriter - thanks again for your positive feedback! - Marc
@@MyKeysToMusic thank you, I'll have a look. I've been a professional musician since 2013 but my songwriting is more for fun...I bought my Nord piano with some of my pension money, just before covid hit...I'm only just starting to realise what an amazing keyboard it is. Thank you for taking time to reply! 😊🎶
@@helenflundermusic Awesome Hellen. We live in an era (2023+) where there has never been a better time to be a musician.

This is awesome Marc. Just unpacked my Stage3 and this is the best introduction/course a musician can desire. Nord must be thankful. Greetings from Amsterdam.
Good thing I listened until the end and your mention of the frequency cut off control knob in red. Jeez mine was on zero this whole time, duh me feel stupid.
@Laserman YES! I know exactly what you mean, which is why I mentioned it in the video. Simply put, this happened to me a couple of times when I first started, so I figured someone else is bound to fall into the same bear trap. 🎹
Amazing job. I even haven't watched this tutorial yet, just I've scheduled to see! but This is what I really need that much! Thanks. I am going to thank you one more time after watching it =)
Hi Karl. Thanks so much for saying this. I have a passion for taking something complex and breaking it down into understandable concepts. The Nord synth engine provides a unique challenge for sure. Selfishly, I learn more by teaching, so this is as much for me as it is for the people watching 😜 You may have noticed that part 3 released today as well. Cheers and thanks for watching!
Thanks David! Nord Stage 3 compact - yup, that's a great choice and I like how you are researching/learning all about it ahead of time! I've been in your shoes. Had the Electro 5 and next synth was Stage 3.
Thank you James! Yes, you have to get a little synth in your life (always a good thing). Although, I do love the pianos a lot and recently have come to appreciate the organ a lot more over the past several months too.
Outstanding Job, Marc!!! You are an excellent teacher, love the format and your presentation; not to mention the subject matter. This is very much appreciated and keep up the Great work! Subscribed, Liked, and commented!!!

My Keys To Music How do I watch the Synthesizer Fundamentals course? I keep clicking on where it says “get started” and it keeps bringing me to the same intro page.
Have studied synthesis but it is a different thing when you study it abstract without an instrument in front of you!!! This is fantastic watching this on the Nord Stage 3 being hands on
Hi Marc! Always thanks for your dedicated videos! I'm writing a comment just to ask something! Are there any online education programs or series of videos explaining about the basics of synthesis? From how an analog synthesizer works, to tips and examples for creating specific sounds, etc. I watched your tutorial abount the basics of synthesis, but I wanted to learn more and deeper about the synthesizer. Since I've purchased a Nord Stage 3 a few weeks ago, and I am going to use it for many years, I thought it is necessary to study about the synthesizer from the fundamentals. It will be a great support if you could recommend any good programs! Thank you :)
Hello @오제희 Your timing couldn't be better for a question like this. Check out a video I just made on this exact topic! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5sP0xv6LX1U.html
Love your work. Thanks for educating us. Question. With the envelope control being 3 pole and not 4, does that mean that Sforzando (Sfz) is not supported?
Hi Scadaboy-oh-boy. So, the answer to this question is no, Sforzando in the purest sense is not supported exactly with the lack of the 4th pole. Although you can kind of imitate it a bit if you introduce the Mod Envelope with a decay. (i.e. You'd have a brighter sound at the beginning and as you hold the note, the Mod envelope would decrease the high frequencies giving you an effect of Sforzando via high-frequency reduction rather than purely by volume). I've never head it described like this but I like where you are going here with these thoughts and provides another way to describe the differences between 3 and 4 pole envelopes to a musician who might be new to synthesis.
Hello Marc, Thank you very much! I'd like to ask you whether you know how it is possible to use the Attack, Decay, and Release not only with the Synth, but with the Organ and Piano section too? Daniel
Hi Dani. Great question here. The answer is mostly "no" but there is one small exception to that. So, the ADSR feature only works with the synth engine. Therefore that functionality doesn't extend to either the Organ or the Piano engines at all. Now with the Piano samples from the Piano Engine, the ADSR is already "baked into" the sample creating an ideal situation to best represent those sounds. The same applies to the organ engine where the envelope (in the case of the organ, it's an instant attack, full sustain, and instant release) is representative of exactly how organs produce their sounds. So, you'd think - why change a good thing and mess with the spirit of what a sound is supposed to emulate right? Well, humans are a bit more creative than that and sometimes we want to do crazy things "just because". So, give this a try: Turn on your synth engine. Select "Wave" as your sound selection. Then select "Organ 1" in that category. You'll hear a similar organ sound that the organ engine would produce but yet you can adjust the envelope! I cover this concept more in my synth training videos parts 2, 3, 4, etc. So, I recommend you keep watching the synth series here on RU-vid. Oh, and since the synth engine can also play samples, you'll find that there are piano samples available to you within the synth engine whereby you can adjust the envelope as well. So, again, the pure answer to your question is no, but if you get creative with the samples playable in the synth engine, the answer becomes "yes, sort of" 😊 Hope that helps!
Hola javier ¡Gracias por tus cálidas palabras! Decidí tener esta serie subtitulada con subtítulos en inglés y español como experimento. Aparentemente, hace una diferencia y quizás es más fácil para usted seguirlo. No puedo prometerlo en todos los videos. ¡Gracias por mirar!
Hola javier urqi! Tengo algunas buenas noticias para ti. Decidí pagar para que toda la serie de capacitación sobre sintetizadores de Nord Stage 3 se traduzca en subtítulos oficiales en español para usted y la comunidad. No podré hacer esto por todas mis películas, pero me comprometeré con la serie Synth al menos. (Las partes 2 y 3 tardarán unos días antes de que se traduzcan por completo). La parte 1 ya está hecha (como ustedes saben). La serie de sintetizadores será de 7 u 8 partes en total. ¡Gracias por ver!
FYI "barrilete cosmico" comes from Diego Maradona's most beautiful and spectacular score in soccer history. World Cup'86 against England. The narrator lost it end said "Cosmic Kite, What planet are you from", as he was flying between player that couldn't stop him.
Hi ApolloSynths! I think I understand exactly what you mean here. You would think that by knowing the Lead 2X, you'd have a breeze of a time with the A1, but they tend to be a bit like apples versus oranges. Now that I have wrapped my head around the A1, it all makes sense. There are a few things that I wish were a little different but overall, it gets the job done for most things. Thanks for your input.
@@MyKeysToMusic the Lead has two discrete oscillators, with a separate mode for unison. I really prefer the control that gives, but I can't complain about the engine in the Stage with how much it can do.
Es realmente interesante todo lo que ofreces o presentas, no sé si te planteas en un futuro traducir, o tener un traductor de habla hispana para todo este contenido, nos sería de mucho provecho, es una pena que nos límite el idioma, y nos estemos perdiendo toda esta información, trato de seguirlo, pero es complicado, igual agradezco y elogio tu trabajo, de verdad, gracias! Un saludo.
@Ronald Ordoñez Gracias por tu comentario aquí y tu solicitud. De hecho, no es la primera vez que la gente solicita una versión en español correctamente traducida. También han pedido alemán y francés de hecho. Por lo tanto, es posible que ya lo sepas, pero RU-vid te permite traducir automáticamente los subtítulos en español ya en el área de configuración debajo del video. Hice un video para demostrar cómo hacer esto aquí: vimeo.com/641022483/c546d96380
Hi Joe! Thanks for the comment and feedback. Yes, the videos take forever haha but it's enjoyable. I realize that I don't need to be green-screened "as much" as I do at times but it's important to me to have a more interactive experience as much as possible. To see my expressions at times helps with the process in a very small way (my opinion). In my courses I tend to be on screen a little less. I'm still experimenting with all this even after 100 videos on RU-vid and over 300 with the courses. The big surprise is just how many comments there have been along the way. That's where I learn the most. Thanks for watching! 🏄
Hi Marc. My church owns the Stage 3. If I reinitialize the synth engine to 0 and experiment, do I need to put the settings back to the the default so I don't change any of the sounds that someone else might use with the synth engine?
@Rick Johnson - thanks Rick - great question. The safest way to experiment like this is to start with a blank program. Navigate all the way to the end of the program list where the blank programs are and pick one to start with there. That way you can build your synth sounds and click "Store" without the worry of breaky anything that already exists. After you do that and you settle on something you like, you can optionally store the synth preset itself independent of the program. In this way, you can use your synth with other programs that already exist easily. Storing a synth preset works nearly the same as storing a program. It's tricky the first time you do it but just follow the screens. You'll find the synth preset store button under the LFO section of the synth. Hope that gets you started!
@luisfernandes1273 Hello Luis! The keyboards are similar in a lot of ways (especially in the Piano and Organ sections). The synth section is similar in many ways as well, but there are key differences in the way the synth engine works and more features to explore/learn. I have dedicated my time to do this specifically for the Nord Stage 4 in my Pro course found at www.MyKeysToMusic.com called "Master the Nord Stage 4." I may do an Intro to Synthesizers section (for free) as well down the road for the NS4 - but for now, my detailed synth lessons for the NS4 can be found in the pro course. Thanks! - Marc 🎶 🎹
Hi David, thanks for your comment and question. So, technically I could do this but I'm not of the intent/request. Would having a video with just keyboard and hands be more direct/easier to understand?
@@daviddelaconcepcion7754 Thanks for the suggestion. In a lot of my training videos in the actual course, I tend to have more lessons with just the hands only (because these videos are actually easier to do). But for the channel, I like to have a fair amount of talking head as I mix training, with my commentary as well as provide updates and what gets me excited about what I'm doing. So the bottom line is, if it's pure training, perhaps there's no need for talking head. But since it's RU-vid, I'm trying to connect with people as a RU-vid creator so I feel this is best accomplished by people watching me on the screen a bit more. Thanks for watching and making this detailed suggestion.
@drestaura_2 the Nord website has both pianos and well as "samples" that are downloadable for use on a given Nord keyboard. Those samples also include selected sounds that can be used for organs and pads played via the synth engine. Typically, however, when it comes to organs, if your Nord keyboard has an "organ engine," you'd use that to generate the sound, not samples. When it comes to pads, typically, that's done with the synth engine either by using a sample played through the synth engine or the synth engine itself (assuming you have a Wave 2 or a Stage 2/3/4 keyboard).
@@drestaura_2 I get that! Hey, you should check out my free and pro courses available on my website when you get a chance. I believe it's the most complete training out there and comes with a private community where you can ask questions along the way: www.MyKeysToMusic.com
Got a Stage 3 for Christmas. Most of the buttons don’t do or show what it shows on your tutorial? Is it because I have a different software version (2.54) or.....?
Hi em... congrats on your Stage 3! That’s likely because when I made these videos, I had the older panel layout. I have since updated these lessons to the newer style keyboard layout available with my online courses at www.MyKeysToMusic.com. Enjoy your keyboard! 🎹
Hello I signed up for a one year subscription for the Nord Stage 3 tutorials. Before signing up I sent you an email with some questions but never received a response. Now that I'm a paid up student, how do I contact you should I have a specific question regarding the training videos or any question regarding some issue I'm having with my Stage?
Hello, @Mark Zyla Thanks for signing up! In the Welcome Videos of the Nord Stage 3 course, I talk about my Email address and put it below that video. Also, I don't recall getting another Email from you directly and I apologize if I missed that.
@Mark Zyla I just tried to email you just now on the Frontier domain address from the one I had on file. It bounced back on me. So, something is up with your Email I believe.

So, it sounds like you already know you want a Stage 3. If that's the case, you have 3 options: the 73 key waterfall keyboard (semi-weighted) with physical drawbars, the 76 key Hammer Action portable with digital drawbars, or the 88 key full-weighted also with the digital drawbars. Each one has its advantages and disadvantages. I explain the differences between all 3 Nord Stages in a little more detail when I compare the Stage 3 to the Electro 6 here in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-av3GxXakeaM.html
Cheers for all the help on the Nord stage! I’m wondering if it’s possible to use multiple synth engines on the same panel? So if I for example could have four synth engines running at the same time?
Hello Dan. Unforunately this is not possible. Only two synths at the same time (Panel A and B). For four synth layers, you'd need to look at a Nord Wave 2 or a Nord Lead A1 or the like. On a similar note, if you haven't already checked it out, I did a Chariots of Fire video where I featured 4 Nord keyboards which provided 11 synth/sample engines and 2 piano engines: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--_bJlgLlutU.html It demonstrates the power of the Nord synths when used together - especially having multiple arpeggiators which come in extremely handy on a tune like Chariots.
