Which Nord is right for me?
Focusing on the performing musician, every Nord keyboard combines an intuitive user interface with our premium quality sound libraries.
The Stage is our flagship series, featuring a Piano Section, Organ Section, fully equipped Synth Section, and an extensive Effects Section — all in one extraordinary performance keyboard with hands-on control for overview and flexibility.
The Electro offers the same great pianos and organ as the Stage, but in a smaller gig-friendly package with an easy-to-navigate sample synth featuring the most commonly used sounds for live situations.
The Piano focuses on the essentials: a premium Triple Sensor keybed combined with excellent piano sound for any genre and style, a sample-based synth section and a superb effects section.
The Grand is the ultimate player's piano, combining the responsive feel of an acoustic grand piano with our world-renowned Sound Libraries and a tactile user interface, the sleek and elegant Nord Grand offers a genuinely unique playing experience.
The Organ is designed for the dedicated organist, featuring dual manuals, four sets of physical drawbars, and meticulously crafted organ emulations that capture every nuance of iconic organ sounds. Paired with an exceptional-sounding Rotary Speaker emulation, it delivers an unsurpassed level of detail and realism.
The Wave is a powerful synthesizer that combines Virtual Analog Synthesis, Samples, FM, and Wavetable. It has an intuitive layer-focused interface that offers outstanding sonic possibilities.
The Lead is a stunning-sounding analog modeling synthesizer with a simplified yet hugely powerful front-panel interface for sound design and live performance.
