Description
The Nord Stage 4 88-key keyboard represents a new generation of stage performance and studio flexibility, combining powerful sound engines, refined controls and an intuitive workflow. Designed for professional musicians, composers and live performers, the Stage 4 brings together three independent sound engines—piano, organ and synth—each with dedicated effects and real-time controls. The premium 88-key triple-sensor keybed delivers responsive, fully weighted action, making it ideal for expressive playing across all instruments. A newly redesigned panel layout streamlines the user experience, putting performance-ready features front and center. From the flagship Nord Piano Library to the Wave 2-based synth engine and vintage organ models, the Stage 4 gives you an unparalleled sonic toolkit that's ready for any stage, studio or creative session.
Flagship Nord Pianos With Enhanced Dynamics
The Nord Stage 4 is loaded with an extensive range of uprights, grands and electric pianos from the acclaimed Nord Piano Library. Each sound is optimized for rich character and responsiveness, enhanced by new dynamic compression and timbre presets. These curated tools allow you to sculpt expressive tones with ease, whether you're dialing in a bright stage piano or a mellow studio upright. The fully weighted 88-key triple-sensor keybed offers authentic acoustic piano feel, with superb touch response and nuanced articulation across the full range. Whether you're performing a solo passage or layering with effects, the Stage 4's piano engine delivers clarity, depth and tone that responds to every nuance of your playing.
Advanced Synth Engine for Expansive Sounds
The Stage 4's powerful synth section draws from the Nord Wave 2 engine, providing three independent layers for sound stacking and modulation. With support for virtual analog synthesis, FM, digital waves and high-quality sample playback, it delivers a wide spectrum of sound design possibilities—from lush pads to biting leads, orchestral textures to electronic soundscapes. Each layer includes dedicated effects and filter controls, offering hands-on shaping in real time. The Advanced Arpeggiator introduces rhythmic complexity with pattern shaping, while Extern mode provides deep MIDI integration for external gear control. With its flexible architecture and intuitive interface, the Stage 4 synth section empowers musicians to build, tweak and perform with limitless creative range.
Authentic Organ Models With Real-Time Control
The organ section on the Nord Stage 4 offers authentic recreations of classic tonewheel, transistor and pipe organs, including models of the B3, VOX and Farfisa. These iconic sounds are delivered with true-to-life detail and controlled using physical drawbars with LED indicators for instant visual feedback. With dedicated percussion and chorus/vibrato settings, each organ patch can be customized for gospel, jazz, rock or cinematic applications. The intuitive layout invites real-time control for dynamic performances, letting you shape the harmonic content and depth of your sound on the fly. Whether you're chasing vintage tones or layering textures in modern arrangements, the Stage 4 organ engine brings unmistakable character and expression to your playing.
Dedicated Effects for Deep Sonic Shaping
The Nord Stage 4 includes an extensive effects section with dedicated controls for each layer, allowing deep customization across the board. From lush reverbs and analog-style delays to modulation, amp simulations and dynamic controls like pump and spin, the Stage 4 offers a studio-grade toolbox at your fingertips. The interface has been refined for clarity and speed, with a high-resolution display and streamlined panel layout that enhances usability during live performance. Optional pedal inputs allow for even greater expressive control. Whether you're sculpting subtle ambience or going full experimental, the Stage 4's effects section delivers the tools you need to shape your unique sonic identity—all in a performance-ready design built for professional use.
A Keyboard Built to Inspire Musicians of All Levels
With its all-encompassing sound engines, expressive 88-key keybed and streamlined interface, the Nord Stage 4 is an uncompromising instrument built for serious players. It unites world-class piano samples, a deep synth engine and iconic organ models into one powerful platform, backed by Nord's signature quality and performance reliability. Whether you're composing in the studio, performing live or layering textures for film scoring, the Stage 4 offers flexibility, inspiration and control at every turn. From nuanced dynamics to complex sound design, it adapts to your needs and enhances your workflow.
