MESSE05:Nord Stage Prototype From Clavia
Bjorn again, showing us the Nord Stage
Clavia's latest model is the Nord Stage, with 88 fully weighted keys, aftertouch, pitch stick and mod wheel. The four output Nord Stage features three distinct sound sources which can be split into separate keygroups across the keyboard.

The Stage also has comprehensive MIDI master keyboard features making it a viable option for the center of a rig. At 18KG, the Stage is pretty light given the hammer action keyboard and 88 keys.

All sections have a B panel for using up to 6 sound sources so you can make extremely complex layering or multi-timbral combinations.
