I paid 39,99€ (plus taxes: 48,39€) on January the 1st for the Mac OS version.

Not a software bug, but the keyboard aftertouch in the 88 or 73 Hammer Action is barely usable.

I’m using this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BTCXK3C2?ref_=cm_sw_r_mwn_dp_VQTEHQ462AAXYFH7RD8V&language=es-US No latency at all 👌

My vote goes for the CK61. I also had a Kross 2 and got rid of it.

Soundcraft Notepad 12FX any good?

A friend from Argentina proposed to me to do a rework of a song by a group I had never heard of. Soda Stereo is very famous in Argentina and Latin America but not, I'm afraid, in the rest of the world. The fun part is that he told me not to listen to the original track (only the acapella file he sent me) to avoid any influence… so this is what I did. https://on.soundcloud.com/RsEZ6FkHX6fxY3Ni7

Thanks for the feedback. Yes you are right, my synths doesn’t have drums (only stage keyboards) so I must leave that to my laptop… BTW, where you able to convince your new band to play sax for Careless Whispers for the upcoming gig? I’m still deciding between Gig Performer and Camelot Pro. any tip on that? Regards.

I'm in the same boat as you... haven't played live for years and I've been requested to join a new band (mainly 80's covers), but we don't have any drummer or bass player: just me with keyboards, guitar player and lead vocalist, and two back vocalist. So the tricky part is they want me to play piano/synths, some bass with left hand and of course to trigger the drum parts and some time pre-recorded backing vocals for more complex songs. I've been checking Camelot Pro and Gig Performer. Almost all the live sounds will come from my NS4 and CK61, maybe the BX-3 as a VST. I don't want to overload my MacBook Air M1 with only 8GB of RAM; the program will basically handle changing presets for both keyboards and triggering pre-recorded percussion, bass in some songs and chorus tracks. Any good advice on this? Thanks in advance.

Can't wait to see Luke Edwards from Kord doing one of his famous demonstrations. Looks awesome. But the RH3 keybed it's too hard for my taste.

Thanks for the tip, I will try it for home as I don’t trust my Mac for live performance, maybe I’m an old fashioned man.

Question for Nord users: is the IK B3 better than the Nord’s B3 emulation? Thanks in advance and happy new year to everyone.

Not really excited about the soft… would rather prefer a new Rhodes or to improve the B3 Leslie effect.

I would never play reggaeton, bachata, or merengue. I really hate them.

Not for me

Old but true

Many thanks for the tip, I’ll try that for sure 👌

It took longer than expected but it’s finally here 😍

Useless

I'm glad you've resolved it. I can try to replicate the environment, but I don't have an iPad, only Korg Module for iOS 17 on an iPhone, with Bluetooth MIDI.

My Korg C1 Air also features the RH3 keybed but I haven’t hooked to the CK61 yet. The Nord Stage 4 that I have ordered has TP40/M and I really loved the action it has. Haven’t received it yet so I can’t have a clear picture of the action, just the 5 minutes I’ve spent in the music instrument’s store... Maybe the CFX from the CK61 will sound meh compared to the NS4, but I think it sounds pretty fine compared to what I have now (C1 Air and Soundstage/ Kontakt 7 VST). I will make an A/B test as soon as I receive it. Thanks

Well.... that makes a lot of sense to me: two pedals could also work for both sustain and rotary switch. Many thanks for that!

I want to use sounds from both at the same time and be able to play the Yamaha CFX piano sound with the HS4. The Nord would be the master, and the Yamaha the slave. Thanks for the input from the Nord forum.

Yes I’m sure about that. It’s out of stock and I didn’t received it yet. Is it possible to MIDI both keyboards to share the same sustain pedal? thanks in advance
