Nord Piano 6 73 Stage Piano — 73 Weighted Keys, Triple Pedal 2 Included
The 73-key version of the Nord Piano 6: the same heavy grand weighted action, the same pianos and the same Sample Synth layers as the 88, in 106.9 cm and 16.2 kg. For the pianist who plays on stages where every centimetre counts.
On a small stage, in a church loft or at the back of a restaurant, an 88-key piano often takes more room than the music needs. The Nord Piano 6 73 is a 73-key stage piano that keeps the grand weighted action of the 88 model, rated heavy by Nord, in an instrument 106.9 cm wide and 16.2 kg. It plays two pianos and two sampled sounds at once, and the Triple Pedal 2 is in the box.
Highlights
- Grand weighted action, heavy, on 73 Triple Sensor keys, with three touch settings.
- Two independent piano layers drawn from the Nord Piano Library: grand pianos, upright pianos, electric pianos.
- Two Sample Synth layers with real-time Tru-Vibrato, unison and round robin repetitions.
- Soft, Mid, Bright and Dyno timbre filters to place the piano in the mix without an outboard equalizer.
- Effects dedicated to each layer: new Spring reverb, Spin effect, dedicated compressor.
- Global reverb with a send per layer, pre-delay, Chorale mode and a bright or dark setting.
- Triple Pedal 2 included: three pedals with continuous sensors.

73 keys: which pianist is it for
For the player who plays piano above all, but rarely in the lowest or highest notes: church music, pop, soul, event gigs, accompanying singers. The Piano 6 73 keeps the same heavy action, the same pianos, the same layers and the same effects as the 88 version. It gives up 15 keys, frees 21.3 cm of width and weighs 3 kg less, which you notice on a basement staircase as much as on a narrow stage. A player of classical repertoire, or one who often splits the keyboard between a bass and a piano, will prefer the range of the 88.
