Hi, thanks for the reply! I have decidede to go for the Numa and sell my Nord. Thnaks for your answer, it really helped me.

Do you think of this as a drawback or an advantage? I'm used to the Nord keybed, it's good for synths,organs and piano, not too heavy.

HI, thanks for the reply! The whole idea of selling the Nord is to buy something around half the price and be able to use the other half in the rest of my studio. The keyboard action is something I am not willing to compromise. Now that I know the Numa is more less the same soundwise I think I am settled.

I also think that selling my Nord Classic and for half the price buying a Numa 2X seems good enough for me. The most important thing to me is getting good sounds and not compromising action. thanks again

HI, thanks for the repply! I am willing to compromise built quality and some sound quality in the organ area and some capabilities on the synths. I'm not willing to compromise on action and feel, that's why I discard the phantom like ketboards, plusI wan't to keep it simple. Now that you say the action is more less the same or better I am more inclined to get the Numa. Nothing can beat Nord's interface and built quality but I am in a position where I know I am making compromises. I am only willing to sell the Nord because I need money. If you say soundwise I am not compromising a whole lot going from the Nord Classic to the Numa then it is almost settled for me, I don´t think I could tell them apart in the mix or live. My organ needs are mainly for slow blues or even little intros but nothing more sophiticated where you could appreciate the difference from my Nord, I'm guessing. Are the keys of the Numa smaller? Do they feel strange coming from the Nord?

The point on selling the Nord is to buy something at around 600-700 used or new like the Nume otherwise I'll just keep the Nord. I don't want to loose too much quality when downgrading.

HI Scott, I'm sorry if things get confusing with 2 simultaneous posts, I'll erase the other one. That's correct, I don't care about any orchestral sounds at all. Just a a good grand piano, upright, rhodes, synths (classic 80's like "Fields of Gold" "Echoes" "Blade Runner's soundtrack" and organ. 1400 is about the price I can sell it here. I know this Nord is the best option for my needs it is just I can use the money to complete my recoding and live rig for my guitar. It seems the Numa is the only thing that comes close. I'll have to think about it then.

HI, thanks for the reply! I'm not looking for an improvement soundwise, I'm okay with how the Nord sounds, just not blown away with it. I want to sell it here in Chile cause I can get a lot more. The main reason I'm considering selling it is because with the extra money I can buy the guitar rig I need to complete my home studio. If there's a cheaper good option I will sell it, otherwise I'll keep it.

Not really, I want to stop staring at the computer while I make music or play. That's why I bought the Nord in the first place.

Hi, yes. 600-700 second hand.

Hi Due to COVID I've decided to sell my Nord Classic Compact and replace it for with similar keyboard for about 600 dollars. I'm wasn't impressed by the sound of my Nord Classic at all, I liked them but many times found it was lacking clarity. I'm looking something with at least 73 keys, similar keybed to this Nord and good sounds, don´t care if it's plastic. I've been looking at the Numa Compact 2x, which I can´t find available online at any store. Any other recommendations? I want something with built-in sounds. Thanks

Hi, thanks for replying. I don't need the latest of the latest, in fact I only need what this keyboard is capable. I was about to buy the Kross2 but many of the features were useless to me.

Thanks for the reply. I will buy it then,

Ok will try and buy the COmpact Stage I found. Last thing, Scott, On other forum I was told that it's not good for recording, in term of sound quality. I think that it sounds great and people get overpicky with current technology, the same happens with guitar amp modelers. Is that so? I really want to spend as less as possible, without compromising sound quality, keybed action and versatility for studio and live situations. I'm sorry if I sound repetitive, it is just that I am a bit nervous. I started looking at midi keyboard for 150 dollars and now my top bar is 1000, after all I am just a beginner looking for the best deal and sound for my songs. It's an old desire of mine to learn to play piano/keys. Thank you again

Hi, I am willing to get a 88 key keyboard if it fits the space I am preparing for it (The Numa does). Now is comes down to Numa Commpac 2x (88 Keys) and the Nord Stage Classic Compact. Due to my budget, I am unable to pay more than 1000 usd. The Numa is about 700. remember I am a beginner.
