Tony, thanks for actually demonstrating how to use the layers. You have shown more of how the features are operated and how to create layers and make use of them musically, than probably any other Piano 5 demo offers. Very much appreciated, along with your wonderful choices of music that you play through the demo. Thanks!
Very impressive Tony. An excellent demo of a powerful stage piano. Makes me wish I had applications for all those sounds, but I'm only playing piano patches nowadays. As you probably know, the Concerto de Aranguez should really have cor anglais rather than oboe. The accompaniment was beautiful anyway. I'm listening through ATH-M30X headphones, which are budget studio headphones and not renowned for their low end reproduction, but in the demo all the bass effects are gorgeous anyway, including the low notes on the piano patches. Gosh, the video is 3 years old already. Many thanks all the same.
Thanks so much. Phantastic playing especially for a huge Elton John Fan. Sounds are absoluteley breath taking. I was already 90% convinced for buying that giant but with your performance I am now absolutely sure to buy it. If I were living in your country the German guy would definitely buy it in England. Really great playing
Absolutely brilliant demo Tony. What a versatile musician you are. It's a pity I live in Spain. I would buy it from your store just for the video alone. You have answered my many questions and concerns. Many thanks.
Tony, thank you for this little concert for us! 🎉 you put your soul into the playing. Considering this vs Kurzweil K2700 for great piano sounds and action.
Thank you for sharing one of a kind master piece of electric keyboard instrument ..I am not a musician or any piano like music lover..since I just happened to watch one of lady ‘s TikTok pianist and fall in love with the sound of this instrument while she is playing ..just searching from the pic by using google so I found this amazing instrument..thank you for your explanation in details and magnificent demo on songs..it was an awesome inspiration to follow the song from this instrument..
Love this demo Tony . You really do make anything you play sound fantastic. Would particularly love to know the piece of music you play at 5:25 with Royal Grand 3D. Sounds amazing.
Yet another great demo Tony. Sadly, this is out of my price range but the new StudioLogic Numa X pianos aren't. Be interesting to see you demo one of these.
Best digital in my opinion. Do to the fantastic NORD piano libraries.Plus , 4 shaping a piano sounds one can put together 2 pianos.Dope.One piano and one upright. Craziest possibilities.
Great demo - thanks. Nord have the best sounding piano samples on the market. There are two things they (and every other digital piano manufacturer) could and should do to truly make their pianos a viable option for advanced classical players and truly equal an acoustic piano: Instead of the present 3 samples per note (taken at 3 different velocity levels), there should be at least 6. With just 3, there are always abrupt changes in timbre as velocity is increased only slightly. This happens with every digital piano on the market. It is not a problem (or noticeablel) in many contexts but is absolutely an issue for advanced classical playing. I'd also suggest trimming the beginnings of samples more aggressively. If playing really fast, virtuosic material, this is important. Although acoustic pianos have some degree of inherent mechanically induced latency, it is perceived very differently from the (say) 5ms on every note due to 'loose' (by my standards) sample trimming. None of this is to knock Nord. Nord make the best available digital pianos imo. But if the above two things were done it would mean a Nord piano would become a true alternative to an acoustic piano for classical pianists. That's a huge market! Most great classical pianists would not be able to determine exactly why playing their digital piano doesn't in any way approach the experience of playing their acoustic. But my unique background (not bragging here!) as both a teacher of advanced piano AND a synth programmer, multisample creator etc. allows me to do exactly that! Nord, please make a piano with my suggestions implemented! It would rock the classical world!
Yes - but this is a rock / popular music piano! Since it has neither a serious weighted keyboard or graduated sample series for classical music you'll need something much more serious: I quite like the Dexibell sound engine ...
@@Freewheal OOOOO. Wow. We have the ;;golden fingers;; tribe here:)))).Honney bunny. Trust me that this is 1000000 times better than what Beethoven had, for example. From any point of view.Get the point? Anyway , a real pianist will really play anything on this and it will sound great. For classical recordings, I know this is great news for you and it might shock you, but ...actually there are concert pianos. You know, that big ugly objects, black....ok. Pianist do use them for that.Chill. Guys , you are laughable.
Great demo and explanation of the multi-possibilities this instrument offers. But... as a piano player, my bottom line is always concentrating on piano playing as I feel I don't want to become a musical engineer too. It will take ages for me to master the various sections in a proper way, and I am not ready to use my time for that, as I prefer to stick to piano playing and composition. So, I think it is a fantastic instrument for a producer and/or arranger rather than a pianist only. Ok and now "don't shoot me I'm only the piano player" 😀
Besides a fantastic demo, I love your musiscianship. Was it not a piece of David Foster somewhere that I heard... and some "Taking It To The Streets" also? 😊👍. Greetings from Sweden.
Beautiful sounds, fine explanation and information. - What is missing in almost ANY digital piano review is just the long, resonating sustained sound of a single note or a chord on the acoustical emulations - for its ENTIRE duration, - without the players use of the damper interrupting it. Please don’t just hammer away in these demos!
He does not mind...as far as I see:) th-cam.com/video/sI7Yd8aBwY8/w-d-xo.html Guys...just play what you can afford and ..play...and be happy. Are you so perfect players as the piano/keybed/ etc that you require?

Electrics are killers, as well. P.S. He plays All the things. I am sure you got it from the first bar. Or....not?
Hi Tony, thank you for this video. I will pop in next week to your MK store. I am struggling to decide between Piano 5 and the Nord Grand. Was scanning TH-cam and Google but not an easy choice to make. Probably you can do a video on this, please?
We’re you able to make that comparison, Elwin? I was leaning towards the Grand, but then the Piano 5 was recommended. I am not able to try any of these out.
Great playing and great demo. Just gotta get that couple of chords right on “takin it to the streets”. Ha. Ohoh. Still listening. And just the way you are is a sus on the D. I have the grand but wondering if piano 5 is in my future. Hmmm.
Nord would be great for studio or the tonight show but l for ive the roland Rd 800 is my choice. Much more practical and user friendly. Allot to learn on a Nord
Great review - question - does the NP5 support split over an external sound module, ie use both internal and external sound across a split point? I believe the Stage series supports this and Nord Electro 5, for some reason they removed this in Electro 6...
Hi Tony, as always I very much enjoy watching your well detailed reviews which are absolutely educational and well appreciated. I was going to get the Nord Piano 5 88 keys however, I thinking of the Nord Stage 3 88 keys. My question to you is, is the key-bed on the Stage 3 88 good for pianist as well? I just would love to have the organs as well :). Please advise at your convenience. Thank you once again.
As I'm a former Nord Stage2 HA88 owner, I'd like to say Stage 88 series have a different from Piano4/5 keybed. The keybed on Stage have double-sensor+aftertouch instead of triple-sensor(But no graded!) that you found on Piano4/5 series. I rather switch to Piano5 88 for the reason to upgrade my feels of playing on Piano sounds&technique. If you neat on piano touch feels/response keybed, You may go to Piano5 series, If you want all of possibilities and sounds and not serious on keybed feels, Then Stage3 88 action. Nord has a plenty of choices for you to chooses, Hope it helps, Just my two cents.
As always, I really enjoy your reviews. Lovely, honestly and beautifully sounding. But my question: what kind of (simple) speaker do you recommend to get a beautiful piano-sound? I have a Nord Piano 4 und a Yamaha CP 73. I tried Bose S1 Pro - piano tones sound badly , also with Roland KC 60. So I use my headphones AKG 240 II instead of using them with external PAs. Thanks for your help. Best regards from Switzerland ;-)
Wow, what an amazing demo! Sounds really wonderful. One question, listening to the 'sample section demo's I notice you are using key transpose (+2). Why did you do it?
Hi Tony and congratulations for your channel. What do you prefer? Np5 or Roland Rd2000?. I am doubting. ...for using it at home and from.time to time in concerts... Any other suggestion? ( numa x gt, nord grand....) Thanks in advance!
Tony, I have been listening to various people including yourself on the Nord Keyboards the hardest part is defining the Nord 5 or the Nord Grand would be the right choice. I have yet to find one at a local music store on the east coast (States). It’s a matter of time and I will have to make a trip to New York. I do have a question on something you played. Starting at 9:15 to 9:24 you played what sounds like something from Michael McDonald. What is it? It’s been bugging me the last week. Thanks, Kevin
Tony, what do you use to amplify your Nord Piano 5? I just bought it and I'm using a pair of Yamaha Stagepas 400i 400W Portable PA with Reverb-equipped 8-channel Mixer, Two speakers with 8" LF/1" HF drivers and the sounds is not what I hear on your videos. Should I upgrade my speakers to something else?
Digital or Hybrid pianos/kwyboards. Can do so much. The quality is so high now. That it makes owning an acoustic grand in a home kind of....a "waste of money". The approximation of sound is near spot on. Yamaha Hybrids able to mimic the Yamaha concert grand I think is the CRX?? or the Bosendorfer concert grand. Most people don''t have homes large enough to house a grand of any size and need to put the pianos near a wall (which is acoustically wrong). A digital/hybrid doesn't need to worry about room acoustics. And you can go silent pluging in headphones. Play any time and not disturb any one in or outside the home (neighboursf). And at a fraction of the cost. No need to re-enforce the floor to hold the weight of a semi-concert grand (900+ pounds add the weight of a few people standing around the piano)....so the room need to be able to hold mabye 1500-1800 pounds anywhere. What acoutic pianos can the Nord Piano 5 mimic? And the cost is $?USD?
Question, can you split 4 individual zones? For example, I want in the lower section a bass sound (zone1) , than a piano also lower but not layered with that bass (Z2), than on the upper side a Rhodes sound (Z3) and finally a lead synth in zone 4. … is that possible?
Hi Tony, I have a question. Our church has just bought the Nord 5. When we play the piano sounds (eg: white grand, grand imperial, royal grand 3D - all of these do not sound anywhere as crisp and clear as what we can hear from your videos. Does this have something to do with the EQ, or could it be a faulty unit?
You must ensure you have connected the keyboard in stereo. Many people notice a big degradation in the sound quality if the keyboard is connected in MONO using a single cable.
I’m a novice, the outputs out do they go to monitor speakers? I would want this in my room and be able to hear the output rather than using headphones, many thanks in advance
That's what probably also all workstations can do, such as the Korg Nautilus, which is cheaper than this. But stage pianos, or how this can be probably classified, are more limited in this regard.
I don’t think this one does. I know on my electro 6D I have maybe 3 organ sounds in the synth section (those could be on here) but definitely no B3 (rotary organ sounds) on the piano 5
hi tony, i currently play on a tyros 5 and play a lot with backing tracks in wav format. What other keyboard would you suggest that also plays WAv files and possibly has an internal hard Drive to store the wav files
This is the best demo of Nord Piano 5 capabilities and sounds. Absolutely great presentation and fantastic music that was played very well indeed

Anyone know what song he was playing a part of at 22:50? I know that I have heard that melody «phrase» before. I think it is from some 80ˋs tune.
Jean-Michel Jarre - Oxygene, Pt. 4 ==> th-cam.com/video/kSIMVnPA994/w-d-xo.html
