Nord Stage 4 - Do you NEED the Triple Pedal 2?

What does the Nord Triple Pedal 2 give you that you can't accomplish with other cheaper pedals? In this video I break down my thoughts on the Nord Triple Pedal 2, different ways you can get similar functionality, and my opinion on whether I think it's worth it. Spoiler alert...I think it's worth it. I'm not sponsored and have no benefit to saying buy it, but I love my Nord Triple Pedal 2 and think the added realism and future potential functionality it gives the Nord Stage 4 makes it a worthy buy!

I have the Triple Pedal 2 and, I love it ! It took 6 months on a wait list to get it !

Kawai GFP-3 is the exact same pedal as the Nord Triple Pedal 2. It cost approx 55%.

Hi! I have the Nord Stage 4 and I want the sostenuto functionality of the middle pedal like on a Grand. Do you know if I have to buy the Nord Triple Pedal 2, or if the Nord Triple Pedal 1 would be compatible for that function?

NS4 newbie over here!
I just can’t find any instruction to how I can just use a single pedal as the damper pedal when I just use the piano section. Could you help me please?

An interesting fact is that the Yamaha FC3a (not 4a), gives the same response as the Nord SP-2. I've tried this (as I've just got a Nord Stage 4), and kept a FC3a pedal from a previous Yamaha keyboard. Tried when I got the Stage 4 just to see if it worked well, and it worked perfectly with the latest Nord firmware, and selecting Nord SP-2.

Is the triple pedal that came with the Nord Piano 5 the 2nd or 1st triple pedal? I have one but i traded my Piano 5 in for a Stage 4 today. The retailer told me to keep the triple pedal cus it won't change the trade-in price. How can I tell if my triple pedal is 1 or 2? Thanks

What are those headphones you're using?

I have 2 Yamaha FC-4A (3 of them) and it won't work with my NP5! ugh

Cash grab by Nord, not giving access to the piano sustain samples (hiss and clunk) unless you buy the really expensive pedal.
All the piano samples I own that have that feature can be easily triggered by a regular sustain pedal.
